Finished something? These are the shows people who watched it recommend next, with the number who said so — votes, not genre matches.

Filler lists

All 82 series

Which episodes adapt the manga and which the studio invented. Each bar is the whole series end to end — green is canon, amber is filler, and slate is a recap.

Genres

All 11 genres

The same catalogue filed by what a show is, for when you know the mood but not the title.

Why these lists exist

Some franchises are genuinely hard to start. Gundam has run for over forty years across unconnected timelines, Fate opens with a prequel, and Monogatari was broadcast out of order. Long-running shonen series pad the gaps with episodes that never happened in the manga.

Every franchise here is laid out entry by entry — series, films, OVAs and specials — with the filler marked and, where we have it, the services that carry each entry. And when you finish something, what to watch next comes from people who watched it and said so, with the vote count shown, rather than from matching genre labels. If you have finished a great many of them, tick off what you have watched and the same votes are added up across your whole list, with everything you have already seen — and its sequels — taken out. How the data is gathered, and what it is and is not, is set out in full.
