Your Must Watch Anime Guide!

 

Overview

I'm going to be doing something a bit different this week. As the 5th post of this blog (may not seem like much, but that's five weeks of my life), I wanted to give my recommendations of the Top 3 Must Watch Anime of 2025. This isn't necessarily the "Best" anime, but rather anime that you cannot die without watching. I believe these will round out your experience and ultimately have satisfying stories.
There are the kinds of anime I would recommend to anyone, and if you give them the proper time you'll find yourself different coming out of them. So without further ado, let's get into the list!


Attack on Titan


This anime was ridiculously popular back during the pandemic and for good reason. Without giving any spoilers, all I can say about this anime is that it is mystery after mystery and plot twist after plot twist. The thought that went into this story is out of this world, and it can be binged in under a week but will touch you for the rest of your life. It speaks to anyone's humanity.

Gurren Lagann


Not too popular of an anime, but those who have seen it would die behind it. This anime is motivation personified. When you feel like you can't go on, you'll remember this story and ultimately it can speak to any person who has doubted themselves. The Gurren Lagann community isn't too big, but there is a reason they always give each other respect in comment sections.

One Piece



INVEST IN ONE PIECE BEFORE YOU DIE! This is honestly one of the greatest pieces of media and I am glad that more people are getting into it. The worldbuilding, characters, storytelling, foreshadowing, everything is in a complete league of it's own. You need to watch it and catch up before the greatest mystery in the history of anime is revealed!

INVINCIBLE!!... or not (Seasons 1-2)

   Overview     I believed Invincible to be a piece of shock media for a while. The first season premiered back in 2021, when I was coming out of high school, and I watched it all with my brother. Once getting past the animation (I was used to the more flashy animation of mainstream anime titles of the time), I found the story to be, while interesting, more so of a chore to watch at certain points. By the time season 2 came around, I wasn't too interested in continuing to trek through more episodes. Fast forward to 2025 and my girlfriend wanted us to binge both seasons so we could watch the new together, so guess who had to finally watch Season 2. What I watched was a pleasant surprise, however. Invincible is the story of Mark Grayson, son of essentially Superman. His superpowered, alien father came down to Earth and started a family with his mother, thus making Mark half-alien himself. Once his superpowers kicked in, Mark decided that he wanted to become a super her...

Dandadan is a Strange Show (In a Good Way)

  Overview       I've been hearing about Dandadan for at least the past 3 years as a manga. I had zero clue what the story was about or what a Dandadan even was (still have no idea what the name means). What I can say is that after watching this first season I can understand what all the talk was about, for better or worse. Dandadan is the story of two friends and their experiences with the supernatural. Momo Ayase is a popular highschool girl, and Ken Takakura (nicknamed "Okarun") is nerdy loner. After meeting each other for the first time, they have a bet about whether or not ghost and aliens are real, with Momo believing the former and Okarun believing the latter. This bet consists of Okarun visiting a well-known "haunted" place in Japan and Momo visiting a spot where aliens have been sighted. They each have their own encounters with paranormal beings at those locations, resulting in Momo activating latent  physic powers and Okarun becoming cursed (also comes...

Welcome to Toon Talks!!

Chapter 1 Welcome to Toon Talks!!      As a new blog, I wanted to take this first post to tell anybody reading about myself as well as what we'll be doing in this blog.       I've been watching cartoons, like most, since I was a kid. I never quite outgrew that medium and as I grew older I began to appreciate it more as a medium. Things like anime, adult animation, and most cartoons in general have always been a big part of my life. Anime specifically has become quite popular since COVID here in the States, but I've been a fan since before I can even remember. Some of my earliest memories are my Dad having me watch Dragon Ball and Naruto on our little box TV in the living room.       I not only find animated shows to be interesting, but I also find good storytelling and writing to be particularly interesting. Writing has always been a hobby of mine and I love to dissect the stories that I interact with for deeper themes, characteriza...
