One of my all-time favorite plots. Edamura Makoto is Japan’s most giant con man. The plot twist occurs when it emerges that Kudo and his companion were the ones who were duped by the same Frenchman, not the other way around.
The so-called “Frenchman” is higher-level con artist Laurent Thierry, who is allegedly a mafia member. Unfortunately, Edamura is oblivious to the harm he has unwittingly inflicted upon himself.

Cromartie’s high school anime series revolves around the life of Takashi Kamiyama and the delinquent boys of his class. This anime series is a parody of a manga in the 1970s and -80s called Yankii.
The show doesn’t have romance, and it is intriguing to watch because Takashi is an obedient boy who thinks he goes to a school full of uncontrollable boys where the solution to every problem is violence. This anime is a good watch, and having inside jokes would remind people of the 80s. The humor of this show is simple, but the way it is displayed makes it much more epic.

He is nerdy and gloomy. They create another personality to live a new life, which is the opposite of their original life. When they discover each other’s secrets, they become excellent friends, but is there enough space for love?
When we read a plot like Horimiya, it makes us question the anime series and if it will be good enough to watch, but thousands of people have watched the show, and most of them gave five stars. The show is romantic, and the plot twists are why people have shown so much love to the show.

The show is very relaxing, and I feel that this show is the best slice-of-life anime series on the list. The show teaches us how to live and how funny life can be with good friends. So if you want to watch something warm and funny, this is the perfect show.

Upon living in the modern world, Sadao met Emi Yusa, Emilia in human form. The plot develops by meeting more personalities from the world of Ente Isla, and everyone is trying to figure out life in the modern world by overcoming problems, eventually leading to funny situations.
I feel that The Devil is a part-timer is one of the best anime series. While watching it, one would forget about time, and everyone would complete the series in one sitting because the show has only two seasons, and the duration of each episode is around 24 minutes.
