Anime can be many things: deep, sad, violent or inspiring, but sometimes all we want is to laugh. And although comedy in anime is a complicated art, because it combines rhythm, expressiveness and visual madness, some titles achieve it with a perfection that few can match.
These are the 10 funniest anime of the last ten years, those that make you smile, even if you already know the joke, and that show that Japanese humor can be as absurd as it is brilliant.
10. Anime: Grand Blue Dreaming
Grand Blue It doesn't need monsters or powers to be epic. Its story of a group of college students who barely study and drink too much becomes a delirious comedy about youth, friendship and chaos. The characters are always borderline ridiculous, and that's exactly what makes it work so well.
9. Anime: My Love Story!! (Pray Monogatari!!)
A romantic comedy with a giant soul. Literally. Takeo Goda is a protagonist outside the mold: huge, noble and sincere, who falls in love with the tender Rinko. The fun here isn't the misunderstandings, but how genuine everything is. It is impossible not to smile at every clumsy gesture of love and every absurd situation that only the heart of Takeo can become endearing.
8. Anime: Hinamatsuri
Few anime manage to mix comedy, tenderness and absurdity as well as Hinamatsuri. The story of a girl with psychic powers who falls from the sky and ends up living with a yakuza is pure gold. Each episode has its own brand of humor, from the surreal to the emotional, and its balance between chaos and affection is perfect.
7. Saiki Kusuo no Psi-nan
If the protagonist of One Punch Man were psychic and more sarcastic, you would have Saiki. The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. It's a barrage of quick gags and absurd references, with a pace so fast that it's impossible not to laugh every few seconds. It is pure comedy, without filters, and one of the most underrated titles in recent years.
6. The Devil Is a Part-Timer!
What happens when the Lord of Evil ends up working at a McDonald's? Exact: The Devil Is a Part-Timer! It's one of those ideas that sounds absurd and ends up being great. Its humor is born from the contrast between epic fantasy and everyday life, and although the second season did not shine as much, the first remains a gem of slice of life with supernatural satire.
5. Spy x Family
The combination of action, tenderness and comedy in Spy x Family It's magical. Loid, Yor and Anya They form a “fake family” that ends up being more authentic than many real ones. Between the misunderstandings, the secret missions and the occurrences of Anyathis anime is a constant factory of laughter and adorable moments.
4. KonoSuba
Chaotic, sarcastic and without any shameKonoSuba redefines isekai humor. His group of dysfunctional characters; Kazuma, Aqua, Megumin and Darknessturns every mission into a glorious disaster. The series shines because it laughs at all the clichés of the genre, but it does so with so much affection that you end up loving each of its idiots.
3. Golden Kamuy
Golden Kamuy It has brutal action and a solid historical script, but also an unmatched sense of humor. From its impossible facial expressions to its skit-like cooking scenes, the anime manages to make you laugh even in the midst of tension. It is that rare case where comedy and seriousness mix without breaking the magic.
2. Asobi Asobase
Three seemingly normal girls dedicate themselves to playing, arguing and making fools of themselves in a school where exaggerated expressions and awkward silences are pure art. It's so unpredictable that each episode feels like a collection of budget animated memes.
1. Gintama
The peak of meta humor and referential chaos. Gintama He is able to make fun of the anime industry, Shonen Jump itself, and even himself without missing a beat. His comedy ranges from the absurd to the parodic, but what's most impressive is how he can go from making you cry with laughter to moving you with a serious scene in a matter of seconds.
Sometimes the best anime is not the one that makes you think, but the one that makes you laugh until your stomach hurts. And over the past ten years, these titles have proven that Japanese humor is livelier, crazier, and brighter than ever.
