This is a list of books that would make a great anime. Many books that have a great premise, plot and characters, especially fantasy or paranormal books that include aspects which would be hard to CG, would look better as an anime than live action as characters and the world the book is set in could be drawn in greater detail in an anime, as opposed to attempting to make it look realistic in a movie or TV show, which would require a high budget and good understanding of the book to represent it accurately without making it look fake or weird. Any books that you can imagine as a great anime series are welcome to be added to the list, although I will mostly be adding books that are historical or have paranormal or unrealistic aspects as they are more suited to be made into an anime compared to realistic stories which could easily be converted to a movie or TV series.

*when adding books, please add the whole series as a box set or collection where applicable
