One Piece

One Piece is the biggest pirate saga ever put to manga, and it earns the title. Monkey D. Luffy is a rubber-limbed optimist with one dream: to find the legendary treasure called the One Piece and become King of the Pirates. To get there he builds a crew — a swordsman, a navigator, a cook, a doctor, and a growing family of misfits — and sails a world of impossible islands, corrupt empires, and rivals who each carry a dream as loud as his own. Beneath the cartoon energy is a startlingly deep world and a theme the series never lets go of: freedom, and what people are willing to risk for it. Arcs that start as goofy escapades routinely end in tears, and Eiichiro Oda has been paying off setups two decades in the making. Here's where our franchise view helps: One Piece is both a still-running manga and a massive anime, and this page keeps them grouped in reading order so you always know where one picks up from the other. It's a commitment — but ask any fan, and they'll tell you it's the good kind.

My Hero Academia

My Hero Academia asks a simple question in a world full of superpowers: what does it take to become a hero? In a society where roughly eighty percent of people are born with a "Quirk" — a unique superpower — Izuku Midoriya is one of the powerless few, and he wants to be a hero more than anyone alive. When the world's greatest hero sees that determination and passes his own power to Izuku, he earns a spot at U.A. High, the school that trains the next generation of pros. It's a love letter to superhero comics filtered through shonen sincerity, and its secret weapon is the cast — an entire class of aspiring heroes with distinct powers, dreams, and insecurities, plus villains who force the story to ask what "heroism" really costs. The best fights aren't just about winning; they're about who these kids choose to be under pressure. The manga's story is complete and the anime is the easiest, most energetic entry point. If you grew up on superheroes, this is the series that captures why they mattered — Go Beyond, Plus Ultra, and all.

SPY x FAMILY

Spy x Family runs on one perfect premise: a master spy has to build a fake family for a mission, and every member is secretly hiding a life of their own. Codename "Twilight" needs a wife and child within days, so he adopts a young orphan and marries in a hurry — never realizing his new daughter Anya is a telepath who can read every mind in the room, and his new wife Yor is a professional assassin. None of them knows the others' secret. All of them are trying, clumsily, to be a real family anyway. Tatsuya Endo balances slick espionage, sudden bursts of action, and genuinely warm domestic comedy, with the wildly expressive Anya stealing nearly every scene. The tension between the danger of their jobs and the tenderness of their pretend home is what makes it sing — it's a spy thriller and a family sitcom that keep making each other better. The manga is ongoing and the anime is a faithful, gorgeous adaptation you can jump into cold. Funny, heartfelt, and endlessly rewatchable, Spy x Family is one of the easiest series on the site to fall for.

Pokémon

A young boy named Satoshi embarks on a journey to become a "Pokémon Master" with his first Pokémon, Pikachu. Joining him on his travels are Takeshi, a girl-obsessed Rock Pokemon Trainer, and Kasumi, a tomboyish Water Pokémon Trainer who may have a crush on him. Satoshi and Co. end up traveling through various regions, including Kanto, the Orange Islands, and Johto, and then enter the Pokémon League competitions there. Along the way, they run into many confrontations with Musashi, Kojirou, and Nyarth, a trio of Pokémon thieves who are apart of an evil organization called "Team Rocket". But everytime Team Rocket try to do their evil deeds, they fail thanks to Satoshi and his Pokémon. (Source: Anime News Network)

Hunter x Hunter

Hunter x Hunter looks like a boy's adventure and turns out to be one of the most inventive, ruthless stories in all of manga. Gon Freecss is a bright, preternaturally capable kid who sets out to become a Hunter — an elite, licensed adventurer — in order to find the father who left him to chase that same life. Passing the deadly Hunter Exam is only the first door; beyond it lie tournaments, criminal syndicates, and a superpower system called Nen with rules deep enough to sustain some of the genre's greatest battles of wits. Yoshihiro Togashi refuses to coast. Just when it feels comfortable, the series pivots into darker, more complex territory — the merciless Chimera Ant arc alone is regarded as a high-water mark for the entire medium — and its villains are among the most memorable ever drawn. It's a shonen that thinks harder than almost anything around it. Two notes: the manga is famous for its long hiatuses, and the 2011 anime is a superb, complete-feeling entry point covering its major arcs. Start with either — Hunter x Hunter is a masterclass in never doing the expected thing.
