Looking for an anime or manga about someone on self-improvement. Could be a monk pursuing enlightenment, or could be a degen trying to better himself.
Anything about someone trying to improve themselves.
Thank you for your time!
Barakamon is a MUST WATCH
I heavily disliked Handa-kun, but I’m very willing to give Barakamon a try. I’ll move it up in my PTW ranking, thank you.
I had the same problem before watching Barakamon. Saw Handa-kun without realizing it was a prequel and didn’t really like it. But I would absolutely second the recommendation to watch Barakamon!
To Your Eternity
A Silent Voice
Violet Evergarden
Edit:
My Dress-Up Darling
Ranking of Kings
Hunter x Hunter (2011)
Vinland Saga S2
Demon Slayer
Komi Can’t Communicate
Those 3 already figure in my mal favorites <3
Edit: Oh, you added more. Well, Ranking of Kings is the only one I haven’t watched out of these, and I’ve heard great things about it. I should give it a try. Thank you.
Mushishi isn’t really about improvement, but almost fits the “traveling monk” type of lifestyle
Hmm, what about Chihayafuru and Run With the Wind? Not really monk-style though, but self improvement for sure
Mushoku Tensei has a lot of self improvement/betterment/growing theming in it.
