You love anime and you probably have no idea what to watch next. Chances are you have powered through Fairy Tail and One Piece, or at least tried to. Luckily, you came to the right place! Check out the top anime for 2016.

My Hero Academia

This is a great anime if you love a good underdog story. In a nutshell the characters have these special super powers which are known as "quirks." Most of the world has a "quirk" and the rest are left without power, the main character Izuku just happens to be that individual without one. We see a young Izuku who idolized those with quirks and one in particular named, All Might. Eventually after rigorously taking notes and studying the characteristics of the superheros, he finally meets his idol. Luckily for Izuku, All Might has a quirk that can be inherited, and he chooses Izuku to be its new facilitator. With the help of endless training Izuku is able to be accepted into the academy for heros. During his time spent at the academy, he learns of his classmates abilities and builds new friendships. But do they have what it takes to withstand the villains that attack the school?

Ghost Hunt

This anime follows the main character Mai on ghost hunt adventures. She is a high school student who stumbled into a position working for Shibuya Psychic Research. She eventually meets the rest of the team: a monk, a t.v celebrity psychic, a priest, and a shrine maiden. Ghost Hunt explores various paranormal encounters and how the SPR goes about solving them. We also later see that some of our researchers are hiding secret abilities.

Another

We see the character Sasakibara attend a new school, immediately he can sense that something is wrong. Being the new student, no one will tell him the secret they are hiding. In the center of the mess is Mei, a mysterious girl that Sasakibara begins to get close too. Eventually, he realizes that he is the only one who could see her and no one is aware of her presence.

Assassination Classroom


The E3 class is introduced to their new teacher, but he's not like any teacher you have seen before. He yellow, round, and full of octopus-like tentacles. Before he became the new teacher, he took a huge chunk of the moon out. The new teacher Koro-Sensei tells the class that he plans to destroy the earth in exactly one year, but still plans to teach them for some odd reason. The government allows him to teach as long as no students are harmed. The E-Class is put to the test by trying to destroy their teacher by the time they graduate. Frequently you will see them greeting their teacher with assassination attempts, and it is all for 10 billion yen.

Attack On Titan

This anime revolves around the characters Eren, Mikasa, and Armin. The area where they live is surrounded and protected by a giant wall, but unfortunately a colossal giant attempts to destroy it along with other titans. Sadly, the titans do enter and we see a young Eren watching his own mother's death. Eren soon vows to become part of the Scout Regiment to avenge his mother's death.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
