00:00 Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the anime that are the

00:10 most fun to watch again and again.

00:20 If you think a supernatural thriller like "Death Note" just isn't as gripping

00:24 after the first time, then you'd be dead wrong.

00:33 We never tire of watching Light Yagami's "Game of Cat and Mouse" with L. Each move

00:38 in their elaborate chess match with lives on the line is as fascinating as it is entertaining.

00:50 If anything, it can be more rewarding after multiple viewings, since you'll be more

00:54 familiar with how the titular "Death Note" rules work.

00:57 The series is loaded with memorable moments, and each new twist and turn is worth experiencing

01:03 all over again.

01:13 This series is endlessly rewatchable thanks to its fantastic blend of impeccably animated

01:18 fight scenes, gut-busting humour, and fascinating world of heroes and monsters.

01:25 Saitama's ennui about being the strongest hero alive is simultaneously sympathetic and

01:34 laugh-out-loud funny.

01:35 While the first season is arguably easier to rewatch, given its more self-contained

01:40 plots and more fluid animation, season two is still fantastic, particularly if you're

01:46 into anti-villains and serialised plots.

01:53 And given how long season three is taking, we kind of have no choice but to watch the

01:58 show again and again to satisfy our craving for more.

02:11 While we're on the subject of rewatchable superhero anime, My Hero Academia is another

02:17 one that never fails to save us from boredom.

02:28 Watching Deku and his classmates strive to become heroes is as inspiring as it is entertaining.

02:34 Seeing it all from the very beginning merely makes you appreciate how far they've come.

02:44 Plus this lovable cast of characters is just fun to see interact, even without all the

02:50 action, drama and comedy.

02:52 It's one of the longer anime to make our list, but the pacing is brisk and it flies

02:57 by.

02:58 Even so, there are tons of moments that will always make us hyped, no matter how many times

03:03 we watch them.

03:14 Whether you're looking to relive Simon and company's journey to pierce the heavens

03:24 with their drills, or you just need a reminder to pursue your own goals, it's never a bad

03:29 time for more Gurren Lagann.

03:43 This mecha epic is such a perfect blend of action, themes and character development that

03:49 it needs to be witnessed multiple times to be believed.

03:56 The hot-blooded pursuit of tomorrow and greater heights is just as glorious the second, or

04:02 hundredth time.

04:04 After all, a drill doesn't rotate just once.

04:07 Its true power comes through repetition.

04:18 6.

04:19 Hunter x Hunter

04:20 Sometimes you just want to watch Hunter x Hunter so you can smile again.

04:24 This epic adventure series takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions regardless of how

04:29 many times you watch it.

04:34 Gon's adventures and those of everyone he encounters along the way make for some incredible

04:42 viewing.

04:43 The world of the show is amazingly detailed, with attention given to everything from rules

04:48 of fictional games to the system of special abilities they use.

04:55 It's so complex that repeat watches are almost necessary to let it all sink in.

05:03 And that's not even touching on the epic action, touching friendship and heart-rending

05:08 developments that permeate the story.

05:11 Hunter x Hunter has us in pursuit even after we've caught up.

05:20 5.

05:21 Jujutsu Kaisen

05:23 Few anime have quite the unique blend of genres as Jujutsu Kaisen.

05:28 Its mixture of shounen action, horror and comedy keeps us on our toes, just as the characters

05:34 are caught off guard by each new development.

05:45 The series has major shake-ups multiple times per season, along with jaw-dropping and creative

05:51 fight scenes.

06:02 The young Jujutsu sorcerers' battles against curses are so captivating, we can't help

06:07 but revisit them.

06:08 Plus, we're also drawn in repeatedly by the hysterical comedy and endless source of

06:14 riz that is Gojo.

06:21 4.

06:23 Attack on Titan

06:30 Perhaps the most hyped anime of the last decade, Attack on Titan may have ended, but

06:35 that hasn't stopped us and many other fans from reliving the hype all over again, multiple

06:41 times.

06:48 The saga of Eren Yeager's struggle against the Titans and the worst of humanity is full

06:53 of mind-blowing twists that just hit differently after the first time.

06:58 In addition, the phenomenal character development, incredible soundtrack and stellar fight scenes

07:04 are all worth revisiting.

07:06 Attack on Titan is a titan of an anime that we're absolutely relentless in attacking

07:10 with our attention, and we're never letting up.

07:18 3.

07:21 Cowboy Bebop

07:32 The beloved anime classic following the misadventures of the crew of the Bebop has been entertaining

07:37 fans for decades.

07:45 Along with the unforgettable, iconic moments sprinkled throughout, most episodes stand

07:50 on their own, making it easy to pick up and revisit for casual viewing.

07:55 The Bebop crew themselves are just a joy to watch, no matter how often.

07:59 Of course, the series' legendarily awesome soundtrack helps make revisiting the show

08:05 an absolute vibe as well.

08:07 Cowboy Bebop is a timeless look into the future that we always seem to find time to return

08:12 to.

08:15 2.

08:17 Demon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba

08:27 Tanjiro's quest to return his sister's humanity after she's turned into a demon

08:32 is not only emotionally gripping, it's drop-dead gorgeous.

08:42 The fights in Demon Slayer are crisp, fluid, and as beautiful as they are exciting.

08:48 Along with the unlimited budget poured into the animation, the storytelling is powerful

08:54 and emotionally charged, with each backstory tugging on the heartstrings more than the

08:59 last.

09:06 The humour's not too shabby either.

09:08 Demon Slayer may leave you as breathless as its characters after a battle, yet we still

09:14 can't help but want to inhale it like oxygen.

09:36 If you're on your phone, make sure to go into your settings and switch on notifications.

09:41 1.

09:42 Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood

09:44 It's only natural that one of the most highly regarded anime of all time is also the most

09:49 rewatchable.

09:54 Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood hits so well on every level.

09:58 The story is both personal in stakes, yet also grand in scale.

10:02 The music is astounding.

10:05 The battles are spectacular.

10:07 The cast is huge, yet everyone somehow gets a chance to shine.

10:11 The world and magic are well-realised and fleshed out.

10:15 It's funny and tragic in equal measure.

10:24 Fullmetal Alchemist is the complete package.

10:27 It's also impossible to take it all in after just one viewing.

10:32 The price of immortality is high in this show, but so long as we keep watching, our enjoyment

10:38 of it will never die.

10:45 Is there an anime you have on loop that we forgot?

10:48 Keep us in the loop in those comments below.
