I know it sounds like a crazy premise, but it was pretty cool. It’s about these animals with special powers and these trainers who try to capture them to use them in battle. You’ve probably never even heard of this one (I don’t even think it’s around anymore), but there was this little show back in the ‘90s called Pokemon that was kind of popular. I thought I would end this list with the most obscure anime.

Stream Fist of the North Star on Crunchyroll But either way, FotNS is bad ass, and if you like DBZ and haven’t seen it yet, then give it a try. And the concept of the wandering warrior comes up a lot in anime in general, like in Berserk (RIP, Kentaro Miura) which I might cover at some later date. You can look at it and definitely see its inspiration on a show like JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. The anime goes all the way back to 1984, and it’s legendary since it was such a trendsetter in the medium. His enemies, who all look like they came right out of Mad Max 2, explode in gooey glory. Basically, the premise is about a wanderer named Ken who has seven scars on his chest that enable him to deliver terrible death blows to people once he finds their pressure points. Do you like Mad Max? Do you like Bruce Lee? Then you are going to love Fist of the North Star, which, as I just described it, Mad Max meets Bruce Lee.
