The best anime spinoffs fans should watch.
As anime's popularity has increased worldwide, content creators have moved to tap into its commercial success by expanding the stories' original boundaries through spinoffs focused on characters or issues that initially were not contemplated as being very interesting, but later captured the hearts and minds of the fan base.
9 Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Hatsuki Tsuji's Yu-Gi-Oh! GX is the perfect example of a thematic-based spin-off. Other than a momentary meeting at the beginning of the series between the original protagonist Yugi Muto and Jaden Yuki, the start of GX, the series features a brand-new cast of duelists. Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon breaks the mold by producing a solid stand-alone story that presents itself as more than a different take on the original story. While similarities between the two series exist, Yashahime breaks new ground by focusing on the children of the original series' heroes, and their journeys to find themselves. Its story is delivered with the same energy as Inuyasha, but with a different plot.
While the story is self-contained, it's best enjoyed by viewers who have some knowledge of the parent series, as most of the funniest situations play off well-known scenes, characters, and themes from the original.
