TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Recently, a security breach occurred leading to an online leak of several upcoming anime titles from streaming sites. This major event shocked fans as some will not premiere until the end of this August.
As reported by IGN, Netflix is among the impacted sites. Screenshots and even clips of its upcoming anime—including the 2nd season of Arcane, Dandadan, Terminator Zoo, and more—showed up on, for example, X and 4chan.
Despite the issue, Netflix can be your option to watch hundreds of anime legally. In this article, Tempo will take you through some of the best anime on Netflix in 2024 that should be on your watchlist.
Top 10 Must-Watch Anime on Netflix in 2024
If you're planning to watch a Japanese animation and don't know where to start, the following are some Netflix anime series/movies labeled as “most liked” and included in Netflix's top 10 TV Shows during 2024 in Indonesia you can try.
1. Solo Leveling
Starting our top 10 Netflix anime series/movies, Solo Leveling is easily one of the best. Unlike other anime on this list, this series was adapted from a Korean manhwa with the same title.
The story revolves around Sung Jin-woo who suddenly experienced an awakening, unleashing his hidden power, after a horrible accident in a dungeon. Jin-woo, the then-clumsy, frail protagonist, soon becomes the most powerful, undefeated hunter ever.
Solo Leveling completed its first season last March. It was one of the most watched TV shows in 11 countries on Netflix by the end of March 2024.
Following the release of the second season’s trailer, fans will see the continuation of Jin-woo’s journey soon.
2. Kaiju No. 8
Kaiju No. 8, adapted from a manga of the same name, takes place in a world haunted by kaiju’s (monsters) invasion.
The main protagonist, Kafka Hibino, has dreamed about becoming a member of the Anti-Kaiju Defense Force. However, he turns into a kaiju after accidentally ingesting a parasitic creature.
He manages to be an officer of the Defense Force, but his real identity as a kaiju is revealed among his colleagues. What will actually happen to Kafka?
3. Delicious in Dungeon
This original Netflix anime also highlights the existence of monsters, but to another perspective. Delicious in Dungeon invites viewers to witness how bizarre creatures can turn into mouthwatering dishes.
The plot begins with Laios, along with his teammates, venturing in a dungeon. They try to find a way to save Laios’ sister, who was swallowed by a red dragon.
While preparing food for their journey, Laios and friends meet Senshi, a mysterious dwarf possessing an amazing cooking skill. This meeting denotes their delicious adventure in the dungeon.
4. Oshi no Ko: Season 2
The first season of Oshi no Ko was an absolute hit among anime lovers. The series shows the life of Ai Hoshino, a rising idol, who suddenly announced a hiatus due to illness.
However, she was not sick, but pregnant with twins, which later became known as Aqua and Ruby. Watch the story of the twins develop on Oshi no Ko: Season 2!
5. Wind Breaker
Being an outcast is not an unfamiliar view for Haruka Sakura. Rejection from others leads him to be a fighter.
He then managed to get into Furin High School, which was rumored to value strength over academics. Expecting an alienation, he met a group of schoolmates passionate in protecting the town instead.
Their acceptance to his presence somehow creates uneasiness within Sakura. But, it is the right for him to move on from his past.
Clover Works, the animation studio, has announced the continuation of Wind Breaker. In the meantime, you can watch the full first season on Netflix.
6. My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999
Action genre or heavy plotline may not be your cup of tea. Then, My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 would be a great choice, offering you a romantic story with a hint of comedy.
It is Akane Kinoshita, a college student who just got cheated on by her previous boyfriend. She then played an online game Forest of Saviour, in which she stumbled upon a guy named “Yamada”. Will he be Akane’s future fate?
According to Netflix, My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 came out as one of the most watched TV shows, alongside Kaiju No. 8, in April 2024. The series was adored by viewers from Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, and Indonesia.
7. A Silent Voice
Some people prefer watching TV to series. A Silent Voice might be a great fit for you.
It is a 2016-movie, but got added to Netflix recently. Following a story of Shoya Ishida who used to bully a deaf girl named Shoko Nishimiya, it has become one of the most liked anime movies on Netflix ever since.
8. My Oni Girl
Netflix occasionally releases their original TV shows or movies, one of which is My Oni Girl. The original Netflix anime movie has been available since May 24.
It is a story of Hiiragi Yatsuse who struggles in making friends, as well as saying “No”. One day, he met an oni girl, Tsumugi.
Both are polar opposites and their energy doesn't seem to be compatible with each other. How would their story develop in My Oni Girl?
9. The Imaginary
Another latest anime movie Netflix has released is The Imaginary. This follows the life of Amanda, a girl with a wild imagination. If you're into Ghibli-like movies, filled with fantasies, this anime is for you.
10. Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian
One of the best anime on Netflix you can encounter is probably Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian. The plot is simple, yet you can get a few chuckles here and there.
As the name suggests, the female protagonist, Alya, has a huge crush on Masachika Kuze. However, she is not brave enough to confess, which leads her to speak in Russian whenever Masachika is around.
But, little did Alya know that Masachika actually fully understands the language. How will Alya react when she finds out that she has been unknowingly expressing her feelings all this time?
Besides the listed titles above, Netflix still has tons of anime released in previous years, such as Jujutsu Kaisen, SPY X FAMILY, Attack on Titan, and even Studio Ghibli's movies, you can binge-watch on your weekend.
