23 suggestions, most-recommended first

Anime like Dragon Ball

713 people recommend One Piece to anyone who liked Dragon Ball — more than any other title. Naruto is second on 324 votes and Yu Yu Hakusho third on 251. 20 more suggestions cleared the threshold, and all of them are listed below, strongest first. These are votes rather than an algorithm: each number counts AniList members who watched Dragon Ball and said a particular show was worth watching next, so a suggestion people disagreed with does not appear at all. Twelve of the 23 have a watch order on this site; the rest are named so you can find them.

Where these come from

Every number above is a tally of AniList members who finished Dragon Ball and nominated another series as the one to watch next. Nothing here is inferred from genres or tags: this page cannot tell you why One Piece follows Dragon Ball, only that 713 people think it does. Suggestions the community voted down are excluded, and where several seasons of one franchise were nominated they are counted once, under the franchise.

12 of them have a watch order here , so if one appeals you can see every series, film and OVA in it laid out in order before you start: One Piece , Naruto , Yu Yu Hakusho , Hunter x Hunter , Bleach , One-Punch Man , My Hero Academia , Gundam , Fairy Tail , JoJo's Bizarre Adventure , Black Clover , Pokemon .

Keep going

Each of these has its own list of what people recommend after it — so if one of the suggestions above appeals, you can see where it leads before committing to it.
