Solo levelling is number one for me. The storyline resonates with me deeply. I am always levelling up. The jury is out on the rest.

Probably add Wistoria. The art and direction is eye candy

[@shayloz1810]

I’d say it’s too early to add it. Especially considering how Ninja Kamui turned out

[@naviinbharathy_]

Wistoria just feels like mix of Black clover + Mashle + Kaiju no 8

[@GenJuhru]

I'd probably love it if it's not the chosen/only one trope and just a mage journey to becoming the king of the wiz--jk, i mean this world is beautiful (ty J.K.Rowling) but having the "I don't fit the norm" has became boring.

People were sleeping on Cyberpunk:Edgerunners since it was based on a videogame. Which i never understood since it was being made by Trigger. I'd also like to add that on top of everything you said that it has one of the most amazing soundtracks i've ever heared in an anime.

Was gonna ask about Kengan Ashura but then realized it was first released in 2019. Great recommendations though, definitely got a nice list out of this video

[@comedianking83]

I miss regular top 10 videos that required another video to add more. I loved the "what about this one" comments that would make it into the next video 😂

[@mborr-12]

What about Frieren: Beyond Journey's End?

[@eckkd4252]

I literally binged Solo Leveling one day and Kaiju No.8 the next. Amazing 2 days.

[@chakliu4555]

Just googled fire force and it came out in 2019, i was about to ask to speak to the manager. I haven't watched most of them but i am loving jujitsu kaisen, lots to watch, really need to watch Kaiju... and Fog Hill, i knew Fog Hill would be on this.

[@Chris.Pippin]

Kaiju #8 should easily be in the top five baby top three and Hells Paradise is amazing

[@gmoney2389]

Fog hill had the potiential to be so damn big...the story was good and the action was so on point..everything about it was exactly what i was looking for to see...they need to bring it back for the next season

[@UltraInstinct-yn1ft]

I hereby nominate Vash tha Stampede for dopest name EVR 🏆

[@whos_agent2129]

Good list, I would order this way different. Never seen Vivy and 86 though. I see a lot people liked Cyber punk. It was good. Top 5…no way imo. The last couple years have had some really strong addition to anime action genre. Hells paradise, Tensei, Solo leveling, Undead unlock, JJK, Kajui #8, Frien beyond journey end.

[@JoaoEsk]

Awesome video and I agree with the list! One I would also add was Nier Automata. Been enjoying the ride with that one!

Totally agree with this list.

[@majinking9326]

Agree with all of them

[@Yayoo9]

WindBreaker ---> overhyped af Undead Unlock ----> underrated

[@whos_agent2129]

Windbreaker really good anime for its genre. Undead unlock being number 13 is criminal…cyber punk edge runners being top 5 is a wild take. Also don’t know when this video was made. But Frien beyond journey end was made in 2023.

[@maazkazmi9320]

Agreed Undead Unluck is barely talked about

[@annonymousannonymous8648]

Frieren? I know it's not 100% action, but so is Mushoku Tensei. Blade of the Guardians (I learned this through your channel) and A Will Eternal (Yi Nian Yong Heng) are good action anime. I must warn you that the second one takes a while to build because of the world and character-building (52 episodes), but the fights were fantastic.

[@TheAhshad]

Agreed. Frieren definitely needs to be on this list

[@fendelphi]

Would you refer to Frieren as an "action anime" in the same way you would refer to most(all) on this list?

[@whos_agent2129]

@@fendelphiI would. Frien has action even if it’s not every episode. It’s definitely an action based anime kinda rpg style. It’s enough fights in it for sure. I mean Mushoku Tensei made it

[@fendelphi]

@@whos_agent2129 Are we talking about the same Frieren? RPG style? Do you remember the first action sequence in Frieren? At the end of episode 3 and it lasted for about 3 minutes in all. Do you know when the next action sequence was? Episode 5 and again, only a minute or 2. The action element in Frieren is minimal until First Class mage competition at the end of the season, which is where you see repeated action sequences. Mushoku Tensei is also a bit of stretch for calling it an action anime, but is more consistent with its action. Its story constantly builds tension, which eventually leads to action. By comparison, Frieren is much more "chill".

[@whos_agent2129]

@@fendelphi hence I said RPG…not ARPG. Its clear fights that meaningful in the anime and the beginning is like a training arc. You can call it whatever you want but it’s clear that frienen action is a key part of the anime. They also do amazing job of animating the fights and putting significance when it happens. More importantly Tensei on the list and not Frieren is where this argument falls apart to me. Both animes focus on story and development of life. While collecting pieces and world building and then significants fights is used as a vechile to drive the story. The whole ending of the first season of Frien was action based…so saying it’s not an action anime or the fights is sprinkled is certainly not true. I am not here to say, Frienen is your typical action based anime like JJK. I am here to say if something like Tensei can make it…then it’s no reason we shouldn’t be considering Frienen. That’s my argument. Mushoku Tensei and Frienen would probably be the least action based anime in this list but still action is a key driver in the plot in a lot of the key moments in the story. It also seems like in the next season or arc it’s going to be more action based. I haven’t watched 86 or Vivy. So I can’t speak on them.

[@Siris43982]

Undead unluck. The anime we got instead of continuing the Fire Force plot. I didn't hate it but the SFX and animation are very similar. Its good but I would rather have had more of Fire Force instead of this wacky, stand alone premise. Not to say Fire Force is more grounded but I just have been waiting and because of Undead Unluck I am now going to be waiting longer.

Cyberpunk Edgerunners was so damn good that it revived the game it was based on. Cyberpunk 2077 was such a disaster at launch being so damn buggy that people quickly went back to San Andreas or COD.

Tower of God Season 2 is a disaster. What started as an intriguing mix of mystery, strategy, and complex characters has spiraled into complete chaos. The pacing feels erratic, leaving us confused and disconnected from the storyline. Character development, once a strong point, now feels forced at best or non-existent. The plot seems to meander aimlessly, losing the gripping tension that made the first season compelling. Instead of building on its foundation, Season 2 feels like it’s tearing it down. I cannot emphasize how completely disappointed I am.

I dont get Tower of God as a "best Action anime" at all. It was incredible bland and uninteresting(incoherent might be a better word for it). I cant really remember a single fight or action sequence from it. I know there was a decent amount of action, including various "battle royal" events, but nothing that stood out or helped tell a story. It did not help with the way the season ended and how the new season started. There is so much that was cut short or skipped compared to the webtoon. I should probably try to rewatch the first season, or at least a couple of the episodes.
