24 suggestions, most-recommended first

Anime like Gintama

760 people recommend The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. to anyone who liked Gintama — more than any other title. Grand Blue Dreaming is second on 275 votes and SKET Dance third on 261. 21 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 Gintama and said a particular show was worth watching next, so a suggestion people disagreed with does not appear at all. Twelve of the 24 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 Gintama and nominated another series as the one to watch next. Nothing here is inferred from genres or tags: this page cannot tell you why The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. follows Gintama, only that 760 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: The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. , Rurouni Kenshin , One Piece , Konosuba , Cowboy Bebop , Steins;Gate , Bleach , The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya , Spy x Family , Code Geass , Hunter x Hunter , Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba .
