Rating (by admin): 8.6/10
Studio: Zero-G
Just like any underrated anime, when I first watched it I never thought it would be like what it turned out to be. I thought I might have to drop it but ended up binging it in one day.
On the roof of a high-rise building, a young girl named Yuri witnesses a masked figure split a man’s head open with an axe! It’s not exactly an everyday occurrence for a high schooler, but things only get weirder from there. Yuri soon finds herself in a strange world of skyscrapers with only two options for escape—fight past the mysterious masked figures or leap to her death!

Japanese Title: Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii
Genre: Romance, Comedy
No of Episodes: 11
Rating (by admin): 8.7/10
Studio: A-1 Pictures
One of the best Rom-com anime I've watched so far. This is not your typical highschool romantic-comedy, but instead a grown-up romance. When Narumi Momose gets a new office job, she hopes to keep her otaku nature a secret from her coworkers. That plan flies right out the window when she finds out that she's working with Hirotaka Nifuji, her childhood friend and fellow nerd.
Nifuji knows about her interests but doesn't know that they're a secret, so he ends up exposing her to like-minded people by mistake. Narumi suddenly has friends who share her interests.
4- Yona of the Dawn (2014-)
Japanese Title: Akatsuki no Yona

No of Episodes: 24
Rating (by admin): 8/10
Studio: Pierrot
This anime is no doubt a hidden gem. It doesn't seem appealing at first but when you get into it, you won't regret.
This anime talks about a girl who went from being the Princess of her Kingdom to an absolute Savage.The show deals with a girl named Yona who was the Princess of her kingdom.However, the King was killed by Tina's childhood crush. And later on, things start to get really messy between him and Yona.Therefore, this fragile and weak princess takes the final bits of courage and leaves the town with her servant Hak
5- Noragami (2014-)
Japanese Title: Noragami, Noragami: Aragoto (2nd season)
Genre: Fantasy, Action, Romance, Comedy
No of Episodes: 12 + 13
Rating (by admin): 9/10
Studio: Bones
When it comes to underrated anime, Noragami is the first name that comes to my mind. It has good fights, good characters, good voice actors, good plot, good protagonist, good comedy, good side characters, good character developments and everything.
Yato is a GOD, a "Delivery God" to be precise. His number is scribbled in various places in red and he takes only 5 yen per job. One day, a girl named Hiyori Iki tries to save Yato from a car accident and ends up getting hit herself. This leads to loosening of Hiyori's soul and due to this she slips out of her body from time-to-time. Hiyori then asks Yato to fix this. They both ended up getting close and helping each other. But this anime is not just a romance anime, it's more than that. You should see it for yourself.
6- Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun (2019-)
Japanese Title: Mairimashita! Iruma-kun
Genre: Demon, Comedy, Isekai
No of Episodes: 23 + 21 + ongoing
Rating (by admin): 8.2/10
Studio: Bandai Namco Animations
This was like my first isekai anime. This is yet another hidden gem which, before it's 3rd season came out, was totally forgotten. I enjoyed every moment of this wonderful anime. It may seem a bit childish to you but if you want a good laugh with some action, then you should check this anime out.
The story follows Iruma Suzuki, a 14-year-old human boy who is sold to a demon by his lazy, selfish and neglectful parents. The demon, known as Sullivan, takes Iruma to the Demon World and officially adopts him as his grandson. He enrolls Iruma in the Babyls School for Demons where he is the headmaster and where Iruma quickly befriends the demons Alice Asmodeus and Clara Valac. However, Sullivan tells Iruma to never reveal that he is human since he will be eaten if anyone finds out. Iruma then vows to blend in during his time in the demon world, although he only stands out because of all the situations and adventures that arise.
***As always, this is just part one, more part will get uploaded in near future.***
