    OK, looking for recommendations. I really liked shonen like One Piece and Naruto and HxH and OPM. I have seen a "lot" of anime, but it was a long time ago and I don't necessarily remember it all. I currently have Attack on Titan and Code Geass on my list to watch. I've seen like 90 episodes of Boruto but I'm behind. I'm looking for:

    horror, ideally scary stuff
    any of the "big name shows" I might have missed -- I didn't mention JoJo so that would have been a good one (but I've seen up through [spoiler removed] and was getting a little bored with the stupid stands)

    Catch me up guys

    For specifically Horror, the only anime that ever actually made me uneasy like a horror film was "Another".

    For a cross between horror and shounen, try the Promised Neverland, though I have some reservations about the adaptation. That mixes horror/thriller elements with shounen sensibilities.

    Other series from the last few years that might scratch your shounen itch are: Haikyuu, Thunderbolt Fantasy (not anime, per-say, but adjacent in its production staff/writer), Nanatsu no Taizai (I'd recommend stopping after the first season), Boku no Hero, Shokugeki no Souma (also, recommend stopping partway through season 4; you'll know when), Mob Psycho 100.

    Some other high-quality action/adventure series from the past few years that don't fall into the shounen tamplate as much: Princess Principal, Made in Abyss, Alderamin, Juuni Taisen, Killing Bites

    Other high quality shows that don't necessarily focus on action: Inuyashiki (grimdark superhero deconstruction), Hyoka (mystery), Hinamatsuri (comedy/slice of life), Seishun Buta Yarou wa Bunny Girl Senpai no Yume o Minai (romance)

    Hope that helps a bit.
