9 Anime That Deserves a Reboot

There are good anime in the past few decades that deserves to have a remake. It will be fun to see them fix some flaws in the story or further improve the animation using the technologies today. Some good examples of anime reboots that are loved by people are Hunter x Hunter, Dororo, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Fruit Basket.

And here's the 8 anime I would love to have a reboot in the future.

Zenki

Year: 1995

Zenki is one of the anime classics who deserves reboot. We all know how awesome this story was and we would like to see this again with newer animation. I just want to see how good the character design is using current technology. And the flaws in story should be fixed too.

Monster

Year: 2005

Yes, this anime is already a masterpiece. But I would love to see the greatest potential this anime have, especially in terms of animation. The story is almost perfect. It just need a few retouch added with improved animation quality then this reboot will be the next anime masterpiece like Hunter x Hunter and Fullmetal Alchemist.

Higurashi

Year: 2006

There may be a 2020 anime of this. But what I mean is the 2007 prequels of this series. The theme and story of this anime is just incredible and one of a kind. But my only concern is in poor of animation. It would be more creepy and disturbing if the animation is just a little bit better.

Fate/Stay Night (2006)

Year: 2006

The first anime of Fate/ series really deserves a reboot. This route (Saber's Route) is one of the most important route in Fate/Stay Night trilogy and to think that it's the most inferior among the three in terms of animation and story this should have a remake. This route is actually better if they just make a better job in story and animation.

Fate/Extra: Last Encore

Year: 2018

This is just a new anime coming from Fate/ series but I really think they should make a reboot out of this one. A not rushed version who take a look for a deeper part of the story especially in building character's background. Added with either Ufotable or A-1 Pictures animation, this should be the next big thing. I already like the original version but to be honest the story is just so fast. And it ruined how good it actually was especially in world building which I personally think unique in whole Fate/ Series.

Air Gear

Year: 2006

With the rise of SK8 Infinity, I surely miss Air Gear. If they make a reboot of it, then this one should be just amazing. I can already imagine how cool it will if they remake it with our current animation technology (I wouldn't prefer CGI). If they will make it with the same quality as SK8 then this one will definitely change the game of Sports anime out there.

Ergo Proxy

Year: 2006

Ergo Proxy is actually a good anime (storywise). But the problem is the low quality animation. It looks CGI but actually not. And the story isn't that flawless at all. So making a reboot of this one is actually a gamble. People may compare this to Ghost in the Shell which is way ahead of its level. But if it goes well it may be a next big thing in Sci-Fi genre. Making it looks like Beastars level animation and fix the flaws in story is not a big deal with todays technology. We just need someone who would like to take a gamble.

Ajin

Year: 2016

Seriously the Story and Plot of ajin is a masterpiece. Its just the animation that pulled this anime into its downfall. People usually dislike CGI because it looks weird and annoying. So I would love to see this anime getting a reboot but with traditional animation style. And if  they still want to add CG I would recommend to use it minimal just like what Ufotable and MAPPA did. So yeah I would love to see Ajin's story in traditional style animation.

Berserk

Year: 1998

This anime actually already got a reboot. But instead of improvement, we saw drop in quality. CGI isn't just suitable for most anime (especially in action) and this is what happened to Berserk Reboot. So it will not hurt to make another one right. And seriously they should stop thinking of using CGI again. You already learned your lesson and next time you have to make it right. It will be a shame if this masterpiece will be butchered once again.

This 9 anime in this list is a past masterpieces that are lacking in something. Reboot is a big gamble because not all reboots are better than the original. Its a dual blade sword that will backfire if they make a wrong decision. But who knows. Maybe someday someone will take the risk and remake this anime. For now I'm just waiting for the Shaman King Reboot and seriously it looks promising. If it goes well with the viewers maybe we can see more reboots in the future.
