dust off that BTR because it’s time to
go back to the 90 welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
anime series of the 90 before we begin
we publish new videos every day so be
sure to subscribe for more great content
for this list we’ll be looking at the
decade that really helped anime take off
in the u.s. from network editing to
questionable dumps and a certain robot
named Tom these are still the hits that
created a generation of fans we’re
basing our picks on Japanese release
dates as some of these didn’t make it
overseas until after the 90s
we’re also excluding one piece because
it’s just too difficult to pinpoint when
next series feet
number 10
Trigon there are two ways that you were
probably introduced to Johnny Yong Bosch
in the 1990s Hindi moaning the fact that
he’s a frog and Power Rangers or
declaring love and peace at fast amp
ease
– you lovable doughnut-eating goofball
give me those you know we didn’t come
out here just to fit your sorry butt
okay what were your clothes all in there
it’s hard to believe that this guy has
such a huge bounty on his head
especially since he always tries to take
out his adversaries with non-lethal
force but we would soon learn that when
he does use force you better move out of
the way we should have known that that
smile was hiding something that’s nice
and you guys would say that but I’m no
more amazing than you are number nine
Pokemon there isn’t a single 90s kid who
didn’t have the pokemon theme memorize
the pokerap however is kind of a
different story
good I’m off poliwag meter we know gold
oh I’m a sword climber
victreebel Bulls right noodle King boxes
abre Jigglypuff King we’re right on
café oh wait not technically this
adventure began on our Gameboy but we
were all soon introduced to the
ten-year-old Ash Ketchum and he embarked
on a journey to be the best like no one
ever was the adventure is still going on
today and we find far surpassed 150
Pokemon that we were so desperately
trying to capture all those years ago
Radek a mega mega dam broke with the
failed ditto cluster canopy central
bubble soccer manager Gollum bigotry
while it’s pretty safe to say that the
series peaked in the 1990s we still
can’t help but come back to it from time
to time he says go Pokemon please stay
with us
I’ve waited so long for a chance to see
you here
[Applause]
number eight whose only tension
much like Vash the Stampede
tension is a kind lovable character
who’s leaving really shouldn’t tent on
over here
behind that bright smile and calm
demeanor tension is actually an intimate
assassin who now wanders the countryside
protecting the innocents to make up for
the murders that he committed seriously
check out the OVA if you want to know
how he got those darn there will be a
new world where man will live in peace
my bloody hands and sword assure its
creation he’s so determined not to kill
anyone else that he uses a reverse blade
thort
I am Kenshin Himura wanderer I will
fight you with this sword of course
there are tons of people who try and
test his patience leading tension to try
and balance his new life with his old
self if you don’t need help on yourself
and stop mourning over them you’ll be
crushed by the guilt of letting those
four men die I know this very well
number seven yuu-yuu hakusho what do you
do when your main character is killed
off after the opening credit
[Applause]
get him to become a supernatural spirit
detective of course freely while you
stay definitely isn’t detective material
he’s got a lot of hearts and a rather
interesting trick up his finger the
series was a huge success in the States
alongside other popular titles at the
time and still manages to stand out with
its charming mismatched captive
characters show-stopping battles and a
few well-placed plot twists every now
and then plus it’s a shounen jump series
with no fillers go figure
number six Sailor Moon in a time when
female leads were scarce in our culture
Sailor Moon was one of the most
influential ladies in the hour and came
with any fully cool Deema girls who
kicked ass and wore heels while doing it
arguably the most iconic magical girl
theories out there this show paved the
way for other magic anime ladies in the
US
she could be a bit clumsy but she always
managed to work with her fault and stand
tall to protect the oceans cared about
Pliny sure but a Danville huh you
must’ve mistaken her for that tuxedo guy
I’m free
oh I know Darren I know
number five great teacher onizuka
[Music]
no Raider awards and teachings after all
school girls are really cute right
disclaimer WatchMojo does not agree with
or endorse the views of certain anime
protagonists case in point
eikichi onizuka who decides to become a
teacher because of the attractive high
school girls oh they’re pretty to
proceed much to where he wrote this may
he get stuck with a class of delinquents
but he ends up warming up to them
[Music]
it also helped that he dislikes the
condescending attitude of the other
school officials which prompts him to
try and be a good teacher
these are getting out they actually make
his methods may be questionable
we’re definitely questionable but his
big old perverted heart is in the right
place just don’t ask you about the rest
of his Anatomy number four berserk what
looked to be your standard violent
tough-guy anime turned out to be one of
the most gut-wrenching series of the
1990s in battle there’s only one way you
should be using your mouth the anime
definitely gets points for the way it
tells its story we see how badass Gus is
then we flashback disease development as
a member of the bedrock
and then there’s the ending
don’t give up grip it be strong I’m
coming to get you out let’s just either
the reason why Griffith is still one of
the most heated anime characters out
there
[Applause]
number three Neon Genesis Evangelion
[Music]
you don’t watch this show you live it
Afghani anime fans and they’ll tell you
exactly when the experienced diva
if you’re going to do it do it now
if not then late and if you happen to be
one of the 1% who hasn’t gotten to know
Shinji and why he needs to get in the
damn robot we’re pretty sure someone is
going to strap you down and teach you
the gospel of nge this series is a
metaphor of sorts for Shinji growing up
complete with religious symbolism a
bunch of mecha and that offered teenage
chemistry that we all try our best to
forget this was an undisputed master
number cute Dragon Ball Z don’t you come
any closer look how to use this sign
sure the jury started in 1989 but it
only really got going in the 90s let’s
face it this was the action anime of the
90s even with its laughable edit even
non anime fans know Goku us regardless
of whether or not it was about that
generalization of him having a strong
set of lungs from all that yelling
this series was less about finding the
Dragon Ball and more about rooting for
your favorite Z fighters years later
we’re still rocking the dragon before we
get to our number one pick here or the
honorable mentions we’d always rent at
our video tour
[Applause]
[Music]
on it oh yes my queen
I love you oh my queen oh you’re so
naughty number one Cowboy Bebop
yep always got to start an office tank
b-bomb the perfect animator introduced
people to the medium and show them that
anime was more than mature rated stuff
that aired on late-night television in a
decade where anime was starting to make
headway in the u.s. it was easy for
people to label it as kind of weird but
bebop hit all the right notes with his
fun characters like animation phenomenal
music and a plot that was really easy to
get into what’s wrong if you don’t
comply as stylish as it was entertaining
