Easy shonen anime recs?

5 comments

1. I only watched the first 10 episodes or so but I think this fits what you’re looking for https://myanimelist.net/anime/40906/Dragon_Quest__Dai_no_Daibouken_2020

2. Natively has anime and other audio-visual media now. It’s pretty new so the ratings are still marked as “temporary”, but for anime that have a decent number of reviews it should be OK: [https://learnnatively.com/search/jp/videos/](https://learnnatively.com/search/jp/videos/)

3. Shounen can absolutely be slice of life, do you have a genre in mind? Action? Mystery?

4. I scanned through the 3/10 difficulty shows on [jpdb](https://jpdb.io/prebuilt_decks?min_length=&max_length=&min_characters=&max_characters=&min_kanji=&max_kanji=&min_unique_words=&max_unique_words=&min_subdecks=10&max_subdecks=&min_avg_user_rating=7&max_avg_user_rating=&min_user_rating_count=&max_user_rating_count=&min_difficulty=&max_difficulty=3&show_only=anime) and The Promised Neverland is on the list. I watched it years ago so I don’t remember how easy it is.

   Cardcaptor Sakura is another easy one. It’s a magical girl show instead of a shonen, but there’s plenty of episodic action and character arcs.

5. My Hero Academia is a pretty fun one that isn’t too difficult
