Five Animes on Netflix You Need to Watch

A guide to starting your anime viewing career

Five Animes on Netflix You Need to Watch
From FMA: Brotherhood

I can't speak for good anime titles on Amazon but there's are a good bunch of amazing shows on Netflix. Narrowing it down to three choices is a little too strict for me, so here are five of my recommendations for animes to watch.

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood

Two brothers' emotional journey filled to the brim with likeable characters and an immersive world that manages to suck you in with the homely steampunk vibe that it gives off. I guarantee you will be attached to a handful of characters during your watch session.

Psycho-Pass

A dark, drab world filled with crime and a mechanical system is the judge for your sins. There's a lot of thinking with this series, so be prepared to ponder over what questions are posed to you when you watch. It really makes you think about society as a whole. Plus, it's cyberpunk, so the soundtrack and the visuals are really amazing.

Death Note

An amazing crime thriller/suspense all centered around the power of a single notebook. There's a lot of scenes in it that'll bring you to the edge of your seat, mostly because the show does a good job at making you want to see how characters get out of sticky situations. There's also a handful of twists and turns and people getting outsmarted so get ready for that.

Samurai Champloo

Three unlikely buddies go on a journey across feudal Japan. Trust me, this show is really fun to watch. There's a good hip-hop soundtrack to it, the humor is good, all the main characters are charming and even though there's many elements to the story that seem out of place, it's the show's eclectic nature that makes it very engaging.

Kill la Kill

Over the top action combined with over the top characters alongside a healthy dosage of fan service. Yeah, the fan service might throw you off, but rest assured, everything about KLK works to its advantage. It's how they utilize ridiculousness and use that to mold its characters into likable people. By the end, you'll be attached to both heroes and villains. The soundtrack is also godly.

Special mention: Hunter x Hunter

I'm currently following this on Cartoon Network/Toonami but I love it so far. There's a nice feeling of innocence to the show. I don't think you can't not adore the main cast. They're really relatable in the sense that I want to see them succeed so that's a huge plus in my eyes.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
