One thing that has always intrigued me is how some anime become extremely popular around the world, while in Japan they go almost unnoticed. In this list, we'll mention 5 anime that the Japanese didn't enjoy as much, but that won our hearts. Let's go!
- My Hero Academia – The official design of the invisible girl has been revealed
- Kimetsu no Yaiba: The movie that kicks off the 3rd season premieres in Brazil
5. Tokyo Ghoul
- Genre: Action, Supernatural, Drama.
- Studio: Pierrot
- Episodes: 48
Tokyo Ghoul is one of the most popular anime of all time, at least in the rest of the world, because in Japan the anime sold few Blu-Ray copies and had a low audience compared to other anime of the time, even though its manga sold very well there, exceeding 500,000 units per volume, but the anime was not well received.
4. Parasyte
- Genre: Horror, Suspense, Action
- Studio: MadHouse
- Episodes: 24
Parasyte is another one that became super popular in the West, and unfortunately, in Japan, nobody paid any attention to it. But to compensate for that, the entire manga was adapted into an anime.
3. Deadman Wonderland
- Genre: Action, Thriller, Psychological
- Studio: Manglobe
- Episodes: 12
This is another one that's among the 50 most popular of all time, but in Japan it was a total flop. However, I urge you to check out the manga's ending; it was good.
2. Another
- Genre: Drama, Horror, Mystery, Romance
- Studio: PA Works
- Episodes: 12
Another is one of the most popular horror anime of all time, however in Japan it was far from that, a total failure.
1. Noragami
- Genre: Action, Comedy, Drama, Supernatural
- Studio: Bones
- Episodes: 24
Noragami is one of the most popular anime of all time worldwide, except in Japan where nobody paid any attention to it. Even though everyone is asking for a third season, it becomes increasingly difficult with each passing year. Who knows, maybe an announcement will come the day after the manga ends. For now, we have to wait.
