City Hunter, both, Manga and his Anime's. It's an 1980's series, but if you don't mind … \ (^ __ ^) /

I just love watching Naruto Shippuden, when it's over and start Boruto, it becomes not as good as it used to be. Using to many tools makes it not like the first season. Therefore, I do not care much about that part

The Slayers & all related arcs are my recommendation, there's like 112 episodes altogether but for a series from the 90s it still holds up well, Lina Inverse is easily my favourite anime character of all time as she provides some comedic element as well as the action etc etc ^^

Netflix' Castlevania series.

They did an amazing job at creating an original story based on the games despite it following the usual Belmont vs Dracula formula. Got a really nice blend of Action, Drama and Comedy. Dracula isn't just evil either which is nice. Always good to see a villain with a good reason to their cause and not just "Lmao lets just kill everyone.".

Also has one of the best renditions of Bloody Tears yet.

Ooouh yeah! Fully agree!! Slayers was one of the best fantasy shows in the 90's.

I will also recommend "Cowboy Bebop" sure many has already watched, but is one of those you can re-watch several times. \__(^__^)__/ Banzaii!
