ANIME TO WATCH THIS WEEK

I recommend watching Gangsta. and Hell's Paradise this week.

Gangsta.

The anime Gangsta. currently has a 7.41 rating on MAL, which is pretty solid. While it doesn’t have a second season, and the first season doesn’t have the most satisfying ending, it’s still a show worth watching. Set in the crime-ridden, mafia-controlled city of Ergastulum, the story follows Worick and Nicolas, two "handymen" known as "Benriya" who take on any dirty job, whether it’s for the police or the mafia—as long as the price is right. After a job for the police, they meet Alex, a former prostitute who becomes intrigued by the team's mysterious past, particularly Nicolas' unique abilities.

Hell's Paradise

Hell's Paradise boasts an impressive score of 8.10 on MAL, making it a must-watch anime. Everything from the story to the characters to the animation is exceptional. If you haven't seen it yet, you should definitely add it to your list. The story follows Gabimaru the Hollow, one of the most fearsome assassins from the ninja village of Iwagakure. Despite his deadly skills, a betrayal lands him with a death sentence. His only chance at freedom lies in a perilous mission—to find an elixir on a mysterious island that grants immortality to the shogun. But on this island, the line between heaven and hell is razor-thin, and failure is not an option.

I'll recommend 2 more anime in three days, making it a total of 4 anime to watch in a week. It might be challenging for some, but easy for others 😉
