The first thing mentioned isInuyashaThis work was created by Japanese manga artist Rumiko Takahashi and tells the story of a high school student named Rishi Nippori who is caught by a monster and thrown into a well on her 15th birthday. She travels back 500 years to the Warring States period in Japan and, together with the half demon boy Inuyasha, searches for fragments of the Four Souls Jade. The success of the animated version made it extremely popular, and the theme song was sung by “V6” and the band “Big Unlimited”, making it one of the popular Japanese animations of the early 2000s.
Besides, this timeJumpTwo of the three serialized works made it to the list, namelydeathAndNarutoAndNavigation KingBecause the 1999 production did not make it onto the list (laughs). However, it doesn’t matter whether you make it into the top 20 or not, because there were too many excellent works at that time, such as the popular onesAlchemist of Steel.
There are also those who did not enter the top 20, such asGod Knows TheZatch Bell ThePrince of TennisTheHikaru no GoTheDuring the mournful chirping of cicadas at duskTheTianyuan breaks through the Red Lotus Snail RockTheShakugan no ShanaTheJigoku Shoujo MioyosukaTheList of Forbidden Books for MagicAndThe Night MonsterWaiting for classic animations.
