Im looking for anime with adult or at least adult like cast.

So far i watched:

  • Monster (which is my favourite)
  • RIN ~Daughters of Mnemosyne~ (also my top pick)
  • Golden boy
  • Claymore
  • Cowboy Bebop
  • Ninja Scroll
  • Ergo Proxy
  • Mushishi
  • Death Parade
  • After The Rain
  • Gantz
  • Vinland Saga
  • Death Note

I would appreciate any good recommendations in that style. Thanks!

    Paranoia Agent. Most of the characters there are adults if that’s what you mean?

    So I guess you want to get more mature recommendations?

    To your eternity - very beautiful, but not finished yet

    Ghost in the Shell - a must watch

    Samurai Champloo - very fun

    Texhnolyze - just watch 1 or 2 eps to see if it is for you

    Serial experiments Lain - not about adults but confusing and more Seinen I’d say

    Hellsing Ultimate - gory vampire hunter series that also is a bit silly

    And of course the Ghibli movies are highly recommended

      To your eternity looks interesting. Will put it on my watchlist! Texhnolyze was hard to get in, same as Serial experiments Lain. You must really be in the mood for something heavy like thos two animes. Good series nevertheless. Ghost in the Shell is classic same as Ghibli movies.

    There are already some good recommendation in this thread and I will second some of them in my list:

    • Baccano!
    • Kino’s Journey: Yes, the main character is not an adult, but it handles very mature themes and is similar in feel to Mushishi
    • Ghost in the Shell
    • Samurai Champloo

    How about . . .

    • Berserk
    • Black Lagoon
    • Dorohedoro
    • Psycho-Pass
    • The Skull Man
    • Zipang (I’ll place a warning on this one for a treatment of WWII on the Pacific Front that many people are not comfortable with. It’s an interesting, nuanced show if you can stomach it.)
    • 91 Days
    • Heat Guy J

    I admit that I’m not sure of the licensing status of some of those.
