ready those funny bones welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we're counting
down our picks for the top 10 anime for
comedy fans did I strike a nerve for
this list we're looking at anime notable
for being so laugh-out-loud funny that
even newcomers to Japanese animation are
bound to get a smile on their face so if
you're a fan of sitcoms and stand up but
not yet a fan of anime these might
tickle your fancy that that that can't
be normal number 10 haven't you heard
I'm Sakamoto well in case you haven't
heard here's the rundown he's perfect
[Music]
in terms of schoolwork appearance and
handling any kind of situation
imaginable
Sakamoto always two hands at the
pinnacle you'd think this might make for
an unlikable protagonist but due to the
fact that he handles everything that
comes his way with such elegance poise
and a heavy helping of melodrama you'll
find yourself eagerly anticipating he'll
lawlessly overcomes each new obstacle
none of us may ever live up to the
magnificence of Sakamoto but you're sure
to have a good laugh while watching Ken
still sane cool this ever night Detroit
metal city vocal nunya Steven de
down-on-his-luck Negishi dreams of one
day becoming a famous musician but alas
his choice in cheesy pop songs ensures
that he'll never be elevated beyond
performing on the streets his luck takes
a rather demonic turn however when he
finds himself roped into becoming the
frontman of Detroit metal city a death
metal band whose fame soon surges thanks
to his talents something he's actually
not too happy about caught between two
warring musical worlds and falling
desperately in love Negishi struggle is
tragically hilarious number 8 the devil
is a part-timer I swear I will be the
one who breaks the sales record for
black pepper fries after he and his
forces are bested Satan finds himself
banished to modern-day Japan where in
order to survive he must take on human
form and get a part-time job aside from
the hilarity of having the devil himself
get into all sorts of trouble the series
also has a surprising amount of part to
it as instead of thriving on the despair
of others the Demon Lord actually uses
his hellish powers for good
[Music]
huh I guess not everything that comes
out of fast food is bad for you such a
pain numbers having school rumble it's
just aa high school where there's an
awkward romance around every corner the
cute and friendly Tenma is constantly
trying to get the attention of the
eccentric but uninterested oh gee all
the while she's completely unaware that
the macho rebel
harima is hand over heels for her
failing at every turn when trying to
express his love everything I do is for
you you're pretty much guaranteed to
spend half your time laughing yourself
stupid and the other half just begging
for them to confess their love for each
other already don't you dare give up on
us harima number six mr. Rosso Matsu
these sextuplets from the 1960s anime
have aged horribly the antics of the
Matsudo family are hardly ordinary with
each of their different personalities
constantly leaving them into all sorts
of trouble often to irredeemable loves
of course it's not all fun and games
with these bros so don't be surprised in
between all the telekinetic cats murder
mysteries and crassness you'll find
yourself exposed to a few tender moments
of legitimate brotherly bonding but only
if you cut that so as you can usual
bokeh nissan doesn't know sounds like a
Hozuki see hold number fine nichijou if
this is what you call in ordinary life
then we shudder to think what isn't
[Music]
focusing on the daily activities of a
group of high school students don't
expect to be paced with many real-world
issues because you'll be too busy
dealing with most bizarre aspects of
their lives throw into the mix a child
scientist a talking cat and a principal
vs. deer fight and you'll find it
outlandish comedy that also hits
surprisingly close to home with some of
its gags number four what's a moat a
Danna for those of you that like your
humor with an extra layer of cringe then
behold the Babylon of awkwardness that
is Tomoko
Nonya and the [ __ ] a reclusive shite
and an avid fan of erotic video games
she believes that she'll easily become
popular when she enters high school
we'll need to find that disaster seems
to follow her everywhere she goes
while Tomoko certainly doesn't do
herself any favors the series always has
you rooting for her all the while
finding yourself unable to stop laughing
as things inevitably take a turn for the
worst number three one punch man
say hello at the Saitama the only hero
strong enough to take out every villainy
comes across with literally a single
punch instead of turning this into a
stale motif the concept of being so
strong that life becomes monotonous make
Saitama a thoroughly investing lead
whose deadpan attitude to life and
unbelievable strength can not only smash
the likes of meteors but also smash your
face with laughter each end up chuckling
number two the daily life of high-school
boys just like real life
this coming-of-age story centered on
three high school boys may not always be
a pretty picture but it can be funny
divided into a series of rapid-fire
shorts the antics of Tana Cooney headon
Arellano shiitake mate brief but they
will have you in stitches before you
know it
moans thong on I want it not good from
violence siblings rival high schools
true friendships as well as trying to
figure out the ladies the high school
years of these three aren't going to be
the ones that you'll be forgetting
anytime soon you so cool
kazehaya moonlight no more year you get
it totally Theriault shot before we
reveal our number one pick here a few
honorable mentions no junior shadow we
can look up sandy man Chaka Chaka my
anger okay a mass yarmulke
Bokke oh hey number one
Gintama series what the mother quit
punching punch but it'll do anyhow I got
a little hole the white demon steals the
show yet again you just can't beat the
series focused around a former samurai
completing any and all odd jobs in Edo
period Japan which has coincidentally
already been conquered by aliens from
the lunacy of the freelance work that
Ginn and his friends have to undertake
the brilliant characterization the
absolutely absurd scenarios as well as
the occasional action scene that
actually stands above most other show in
series Gintama is literally out of this
world in the laughs Department Komodo
