time-travel culminates into the
deadliest clash of cultures you've ever
seen gather together by the mysterious

highlights such as Rasputin is unit 8

Doctor Who I say photo yoku a god thing

is a little rough you can still enjoy
the carnage of this unorthodox group
causes as the dwarves elves and Hammad's
look on in horror
[Music]
y'okay number nine date following the
appearance of a portal that leads to an
alternate dimension filled with mythical
creatures and magic a member of the
Japanese special forces is sent in to
investigate
in the hopes of engaging in peaceful
negotiations that's Pocoyo Jedi down
when you're taking a konkey almost
vanilla mocha ticky definitely the
series shows a lot of love for classic
fantasy though still chooses to balance
the importance of the human world as
well which more often than not reflects
the oddities of both realities sure they
have fire-breathing dragons but we have
anime conventions so potato potato
[Music]
a break attack on titan hunted to the
edge of extinction by giant carnivorous
beasts known as titans humanity's only
chance for survival lies in the hands of
a brave few who choose to bencher out
and continue the fight their advantage
finally comes in the form of Eren Jaeger
who with the rest of the new additions
to the survey Corps serve as humanity's
last hope
[Music]
providing the thrills as the likes of
Levi and Mikasa Ackerman slate every
Titan they come across while also
bringing on the tears as characters we
had grown close to get crushed left
right and center attack on Titan is an
easy choice for any fantasy fan number
seven a commie got kill there is
certainly not much to smile about if
you're a citizen of the Empire what with
all the corruption tyrannical leaders
and nearly unstoppable Yeager's who
crush all resistance without care for
any collateral damage no you are you son
are you sure luckily there is the night
raid a group of assassins who seek to
carve away the evil that blights their
land
packed with visceral action unpleasant
themes and countless deaths it's no
surprise that people call this show the
anime equivalent to Game of Thrones hmm
meekly I did I thought I was kidding
Costa number six you know Yasha
[Music]
a tale of the human girl and half-demons
journey to recover shards of a sacred
jewel still remains one of the classic
animes most beloved series venturing
across Sengoku period Japan filled with
all manner of fantastical creatures
Kagome and Inuyasha his quest not only
give us plenty of memorable supporting
characters but also a rather touching
love story to boot hey very nice just
drop it okay while we're all for
inuyasha busting out the wind scar a
hint of bromance never hurt anyone
number 5 berserk whether you're thinking
of giving the original series a watch or
fancy checking out one of the more
recent remakes be warned this is one of
animes bloodiest and darkest franchises
chronicling the endless battle that is
the life of guts we see him go through
every kind of Hell imaginable which
forges him into a sword wielding killing
machine while the battles are gloriously
bloody what really hits home is the
relationship he builds with the
mercenary group the band of the hawk and
his charismatic leader Griffith I want
you to join me guts you won't find more
of a beast than guts or a series that
doesn't shy away from any kind of taboo
[Music]
number four the seven deadly sins wrath
greed pride lust sloth gluttony and envy
are no strangers to the world of anime
but it's a rare occurrence when you find
yourself the rooting for them conclusion
this incomprehensible extraordinary
power is taking on the form of seven
powerful knights each with their own
hilarious quirks as well as lethal
fighting abilities the sins take on the
full might of the kingdom they once
protected but its princess please for
them to help rid it of corruption don't
get your panties in a wad I totally got
it back on this led by the slightly
pervy short-statured and strong as hell
melodious the banter between the seven
and their escalating battles are beyond
entertaining overthrow the kingdom
there's something about that number
three re0 Subaru Natsuki has more than
earned his place as being one of the
most unlucky characters in anime if only
for the fact that for him a painful
death is not final but a means to an end
transported to a mysterious new world
filled with the likes of elves and other
mystical creatures he soon discovers
that it's not the strangest aspect of
his new surroundings
after suffering multiple brutal murders
Subaru finds himself caught up in an
eternal loop until he can right the
wrongs of each encounter equal parts
mystery and thriller rest assured that
this is not the kind of fantasy anyone
would wish to live in
number two fate series
behold the franchise that championed
anime battles between figures of history
all while layering it with mind-blowing
visuals and engrossing narratives that
traverse timelines
[Music]
as the Holy Grail wars begin various
masters and servants clash in order to
claim victory some of whom have less
than honorable intentions
I guess the human world is a bloody
place whatever the era whether its fate
zero or unlimited blade works there's no
denying that the rich cast of characters
especially in the case of Sabre and
breathtaking battle sequences will have
you on the edge of your seat
[Music]
another machine elastica before we
reveal our number one pick here are a
few honorable mentions great sorcerer of
creation machi number one Full Metal
Alchemist Brotherhood I'm not done in a
world where the art of alchemy reigned
supreme
Edward Elric has made it his mission in
life to seek out the Philosopher's Stone
in order to restore the body of his
younger brother all while finding
himself engaged in a battle with the
likes of chimeras murderers and the
deadly creatures known as the homunculus
it's tragically human characters and
unique approach to the themes of revenge
war and religion no other series found
by Fantasy has had this much gravitas
under its automail still it's too late
to turn back now
