10 unforgettable anime that will be 10 years old in 2025 and are still worth watching.

It seems unbelievable, but it's been ten years since these anime first blew our minds. In 2015, titles were released that are now modern classics, from epic fights and intense comedies to existential dramas that still resonate with us. Some were era-defining, others became cult favorites, and all left their mark. Here are the best anime turning 10 in 2025.

Dragon Ball Super Anime

You may like it more or less, but there's no denying it: Dragon Ball Super was a global phenomenon. It revived a legendary franchise, gave us Goku Black, Ultra Instinct, Jiren, and one of the most epic tournaments in modern anime. Ten years after its premiere, Dragon Ball Super is as alive as ever.

One Punch Man

One Punch Man redefined action anime with a blend of comedy, absurd animation, and an internal critique of the shonen genre. Saitama arrived as a joke and remained an icon. Although its second season was controversial, the first remains pure gold.

Anime Owarimonogatari

The Monogatari saga is unique, and Owarimonogatari was one of its high points. Between symbolism, sharp dialogue, and intricate characters, this installment brilliantly wrapped up several arcs. It's not for everyone, but those who connected with it still consider it a gem.

Death Parade

An anime that only needed 12 episodes to make you question life, death, and everything in between. Death Parade was intense, beautiful, and philosophical. And its opening remains one of the most deceptively joyful in history.

Assassination Classroom

The story of an alien teacher who threatens to destroy Earth, but becomes the best teacher his students ever had. Assassination Classroom blended action, comedy, and life lessons that still resonate. The ending still breaks us a little.

Anime Sound! Euphonium

An anime about girls in a school band might seem simple, but Sound! Euphonium transformed it into art. Kyoto Animation delivered a sensitive, mature, and visually beautiful story about music, competition, and personal growth.

Anime Overlord

When many isekai were starting to feel like clones, Overlord brought something different: an overpowered yet villainous protagonist, with a dark yet humorous tone. Ainz Ooal Gown may not be a traditional hero, but his story continues to captivate millions.

Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma

Cooking battles with shonen animation and exaggerated reactions? Food Wars turned cooking into a spectacle, and while not everything was perfect, the series was always entertaining, intense, and very appetizing.

Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans

This Gundam was different. Rawer, more political, and with a narrative that didn't shy away from the pain. Tekkadan gave us one of the most endearing and tragic groups in the Gundam universe, and it still hurts to remember how it all ended.

Danmachi: Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?

Despite launching with a seemingly jokey title, Danmachi earned its place with a blend of action, fantasy, and adorable waifus. Bell and Hestia won over audiences, and while the quality has been up and down, the world of Orario lives on ten years later. 2015 was an incredible year for anime, and these titles prove it. Some made us laugh, others cried, and many left us thinking long after they ended. The fact that ten years have passed only proves one thing: good anime ages well. Watching them again today is like reuniting with old friends, and all this entails: nostalgia, affection, and a small pang in the heart. Tell us, which of these anime left the biggest mark on you a decade ago?
