Anime can be funny, scary, romantic, or absolutely heart wrenching. Every series has their own special way of pulling in the viewer. So with that said, here are the top 3 anime that broke my heart.

3) Akame Ga Kill

In this heart wrenching series, a group of killers go on quests for riches and power. Throughout the series you learn about their strengths, weaknesses, and inner demons. Throughout the anime there is loss of life, and I mean a massive amount of life.

2)Assassination Classroom

In this show a middle school class of outcasts is taken over by a genetically modified assassin. In an effort to honor his friend’s last wish, the assassin takes over the class as their new teacher and dedicates his life to teaching them. Yet, the catch here is that the class must assassinate him before their sensei destroys the Earth. After a year of attempted murder and class bonding, they finally are able to stop Korosensei, of course after becoming a small family over the past year. So, basically, they are not only killing their target, but they are killing their mentor and friend who helped them realize their true strength as individuals and a group. (Yes, the ending made me cry.)

1) Sword Art Online

Finally, the one anime that I refuse to watch again (or the second season for that matter) because it truly devastated me. This series went from innocent fun to a fight for the right to live. Friends and foes come together to try to break out of alternate reality video game that the creator has trapped them in. From months on end, they need to defeat different levels or rooms of the game. Once they pass through all the levels, the players will be released back into their true reality. But, here’s the catch, is they die in the game, they die in real life. At the end of the first series, after thousands of lives are lost, they are able to clear the game. Yet, love is lost.

My Hero Academia tells the story of this middle school kid named Izuku Midoriya who was born without super powers. This poor kid who just wants to have a Quirk (super power) just like everybody else ends up getting bullied for not being born with a power. Despite being constantly bullied by this kid named Katsuki Bakugō, who has the ability to basically sweat explosions, Izuku attempts to save him from a villain. The world’s greatest hero, All Might, recognizes Izuku’s potential and bestows him with his own Quirk. Now transition into high school; the used-to-be-powerless kid makes his way through U.A. High School where he learns more about his powers along side the next generation of superheroes.

Kōhei Horikoshi, the writer and illustrator of this wonderful Japanese manga, started creating these wonderful stories for a magazine called Weekly Shōnen Jump on July 7th, 2014. So far there are 32 issues, which is pretty awesome. They started to get popular so the next step was its own manga. On November 9th, 2015, My Hero Academia Smash!! was published. At the moment there are 8 volumes of science-fantasy fun. Let’s take it up a notch, shall we? April 3rd, 2016, the famous Studio Bones, Madman Entertainment, and Funimation got involved and released the anime, which currently has 13 episodes. I feel like there should be a drum roll inserted here-> On May 19th, 2016, Bandai Namco Studios is bringing this action packed adventure to Nintendo 3DS’s everywhere with the video game My Hero Academia: Battle for All. It’s amazing how Horikoshi’s small story ended up becoming a huge success within a short span of three years. So yeah, be sure to catch up on the manga or binge the anime or just go right for it and pick up a copy of the game.
