Anime is the Best!

Writer's picture: That PNW DadThat PNW Dad


One of my guilty pleasures is watching anime. It’s like cartoons, but for adults. I’ve never stopped watching cartoons—I love animation, and it’s a nice getaway from the real world. Anime is one of those things that everyone used to watch but rarely admit to. At least, that’s how it used to be. Today, things are a little different. I’m in my mid-30s, I have a family, and I no longer care what anyone thinks, so I’ve started wearing anime clothing. Mostly *One Piece* gear, since it’s my all-time favorite anime.


I’ve bought multiple One Piece shirts (not that red one there) and beanies, and I wear them out in public all the time. The great thing is, I always get compliments on them and often end up starting conversations with fellow anime fans. People see me as someone safe to talk to about anime or One Piece, and I love it. Wearing these shirts has allowed me to connect with many people, that i never would have thought were one piece fans and it’s really a great feeling.


If you like anime, go buy your favorite anime shirt! You’d be surprised how many people compliment you on it and how many conversations it sparks. It’s an amazing way to connect with others.


Recently, I even connected with a buddy from work over anime. It all started when I commented on some *Naruto* posts he made on LinkedIn (lol), and since then, we’ve become good friends with a lot in common. I don’t think our friendship would have developed the same way if it hadn’t been for our mutual love of anime.


Now, if you’re not into anime, that’s totally fine. But let me tell you, not only is the animation incredible, but the stories are just as good. Check these out—I promise you won’t be disappointed:


1- One Piece - longest running manga/anime well worth it but will take you some time

2 - Tri Gun - one of the greatest watch it and tell me im wrong - so epic! (above)

3 - Naruto - needs no explanation go watch it

4 - Samurai Champloo - so sick! music is lit!


5 - Rurouni Kenshin (above) - Master swordsman, but quite the nice guy when your not fighting to the death

7 - Berserk - daaaamn as heck

8 - One Punch Man - funny as heck (ABOVE)

9 - Death Note - thrilling as heck

10 - Dr Stone - engaging as heck


Tell me what you think of my list or if you have seen any of these before in the comments below! I love to talk anime!
