Anime stack for you to relax and chill out

A list of anime with protagonist's that can see and interact with supernatural entities and spirits, whether that be temporarily or permanently.

The world is not beautiful. And that; in a way, leads to some sort of beauty.

To explore; means to understand the beauty as well as the accepting the faults, reality and uniqueness of your world.

Anime specializing in various supernatural and paranormal tropes, usually with mystery and investigation underlying. This stack places weight on the more spiritually focussed paranormal anime.

As in, this isnt just anime with ghosts. There's usually a deeper grasp of the details around the paranormal displayed in these anime that present more compelling and believable paranormal themes. Some that are on here are spiritual in a more personal sense, that they stimulate your spirit in a deep way, not always that the anime itself has spirits.

But energies / ghosts / spirits / yokai are usually present. Based on whether the anime left an intellectual impression or not, some may think the anime on here aren't worth it if you're not in an open mind.

Anime series that covers all of its original source they're based on, with some notes.

Anime to relax to, *mostly* featuring Iyashikei, CGDCT, Slice of life and minimal drama

"iyashi" (癒し) means healing, and the term "iyashikei" refers to anime and manga that "heal" the audience by instilling a calming feeling or evoking emotional carthasis. Almost always, Iyashikei stories have peaceful, somewhat mundane, and nostalgic atmospheres. The settings are idyllic with little or no conflict, and the narratives focus on personal reflection, heartwarming moments, a vague sense of melancholy, and/or an appreciation for the small things in life.

CGDCT - "Cute Girls Doing Cute Things"

Animes with the horror, paranormal and supernatural genres.

Best animes ranked by Koumazoku.For series/franchise only the best out pick added (e.g. Monogatari, Gintama)

Art direction, harmony with the narrative, framing and uniqueness while wholesome.
