### Transcript

I'm a huge fan of anime! So I'm just gonna go over a few of my favorites. I've got to mention Naruto. I really grew up watching this show, and the loner kid who's ostracized by everyone that he knows and he has this seemingly impossible dream he's gonna grow up and achieve, being the leader of his village, the face of the ninja world, it's really something special. One Punch Man. Kind of lukewarm in the beginning, he's just the most powerful person in his world right, but he can't do simple things. Super enjoyable for me. All time, one of the greatest animes ever made. Light should have won. He's this almost all-knowing guy who doesn't make mistakes, he doesn't fail or anything. That's all I'll say. Everything you're looking for in a shonen adventure anime. There are rumors circulating it might be coming back, so fingers crossed. Jujutsu Kaisen. Every fight, I feel like I'm watching an AMV. It's just so over the top. Yeah, they throw hands in this anime, they box constantly. NOW YOU KNOW!
