Jujutsu Kaisen is hands down one of the most popular anime of the past few years – and for good reason! Based on the hit manga series, animation studio MAPPA released the first season back in 2020. Since then, the hype has only grown stronger: new seasons, a movie, and a massive fanbase say it all.
If you’ve already binge-watched everything available and are now looking for more anime with a similar vibe, you’re in the right place. Here are some top-notch alternatives to Jujutsu Kaisen that you definitely shouldn’t miss:
Bleach
Bleach follows 15-year-old Ichigo Kurosaki, who’s always been able to see ghosts. One day, he meets a Shinigami named Rukia while she’s battling a monstrous spirit known as a Hollow. Rukia is badly injured and ends up transferring her powers to Ichigo. Just like that, he becomes a Shinigami himself and must now face off against dangerous supernatural threats.
Demon Slayer
Demon Slayer tells the emotional story of Tanjiro, whose family is slaughtered by a demon. Only his sister survives – but she’s been turned into a demon herself. Determined to save her, Tanjiro joins a group of elite demon slayers and begins his fight against powerful and terrifying enemies. Expect a mix of intense action, deep emotions, and stunning animation.
Chainsaw Man
If you love Jujutsu Kaisen, chances are you’ll enjoy Chainsaw Man too – it’s also produced by MAPPA. The story centers on Denji, a young man living in extreme poverty. To pay off his crushing debts, he hunts devils with his chainsaw-wielding dog, Pochita. But one fateful event changes his life forever, kicking off a wild and brutal journey.
The God of High School
High schooler Jin Mori is convinced he’s the strongest teenager around. So when he’s invited to join a mysterious tournament called “The God of High School”, he’s all in. The winner gets any wish granted – no matter what it is. Another anime animated by MAPPA, this one delivers intense battles and flashy visuals.
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
An all-time classic. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood follows brothers Edward and Alphonse Elric, who turn to alchemy after their mother dies. But their attempt to bring her back goes horribly wrong, costing them parts of their bodies. Now they journey across the land in search of the legendary Philosopher’s Stone to undo the damage.
