Not a cute boy, just a boring girl.
*checks queue* Alternately watch Yona of the Dawn, Hourou Musuko/Wandering Son, Gundam: Iron Blooded Orphans, Fate/Zero or Gatchaman Crowds.

Since only One Piece was mentioned a few of the recent hits in the same genre would be a good follow-up. Stuff like Attack on Titan, My Hero Academia, or Mob Psycho 100.

Punk Rebel, if you liked One Piece but felt that +700 episodes might be a bit too heavy, I have a perfect show for you.

My favorite anime are:

One Piece

One Punch Man
Dragon Ball Z
Attack on Titan

I tried to get into the Hunter x Hunter anime, but it was too slow and uneventful. Is the manga better than the anime?

Reports are that Netflix will have the second half up in August. Presumably the delay is for the multiple dubs they had recorded.

Watch Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. The Hunter X Hunter manga is a bit better paced than the anime, but still probably not what you're looking for if the anime didn't grab you at all.

Gintama is, as always, never a bad choice.

Mob Psycho 100 is by the same creator as One Punch Man so that's definitely worth checking out.

MHA is just about a 100% direct translation to the screen, to the point where some people have complained it seems slow in spots. It has the exact same heart because of it, though.

Also the voice work is spot loving on.

Thunderbolt Fantasy uses puppets? Holy poo poo! Will watch!


And yeah, I don't mean to sound autistic, but I want to stick with shows that are as good or better than the manga because I hate watching something knowing that it isn't the best version of it. Are there a lot of anime that are better than the manga?

The G Gundam anime is great. I have no idea if the manga has been made available officially or scanlated. The 2010 remake manga is OK. I would still recommend you to watch the anime, though. It was Tomokazu Seki's debut as a Protagonist and you can definitely hear how he's putting a poo poo-ton of effort as Domon Kasshu. Mark Gatha in the English dub is also pretty drat cool.

MHA is pretty great in both mediums.
