Those series that had not one but TWO (or more!) anime adaptations!!

Disclaimer: I'm not sure that I know every anime that fits this criteria so I will add those that I already know about and add more as I see more of this (dm me or comment in my profile if you want me to add an specific item, stick to the rules down below tho). This will prolly need more parts due to the 50 items limit per list, any new part will be linked at the end of this description. This is not a recommendation list, there's some adaptations that I wouldn't recommend but they're included since it fits the topic of the list, as it's purpose is giving visibility to these type of cases.

Rules:
-Has to be at least 2 anime adaptations (regarding of length/episode number/format..) of the same original media (manga, novel, game, etc).
-Sequels don't count, so won't be added (you can search sequels for an adaptation on your own by clicking the name of the item to go to it's page). I do this to reduce the amount of items per list due to the 50 item limit per stack, in this way there's less parts needed for continue this 'project'.

The complete Bleach stack.

List of every special on MAL that was shown at the Shonen Jump Super Anime Tour, otherwise known as Jump Festa. Ordered by series and release date. If I missed any please tell me.

I will put what episode to watch things underneath, for example, watch this movie after episode ***

I watched all of these anime during Fall 2022

Top anime (in my opinion)

New in fall 2022: BLUE LOCK is a story about looking for the best and most "selfish" striker through the "blue lock" program, interesting because there has never been a story about football that I think really affects the mentality of the players, and most of football is related to teamwork.

For CHAINSAWMAN the animation is good for the hand movements, faces and small details, the camera angles, the soundtrack is also perfect, but for some reason the action feels lacking and a bit stiff, the plot is a bit slow

Sequel:
Top 1 BLEACH TYBW ARC, for anime lovers, you definitely know what this is about, even if you don't follow the series, because of the epic comeback after 10 years, try watching the 1st episode, it's really cool, even though I marathoned the previous series, the old anime continued until the manga ended. "wow" impression, especially if the seiyuu is still the same, the animation is really good, it feels like watching a movie, the best animation this year
Top 2 BOKU NO HERO SEASON 6 is also good and has an exciting arc

Completed:
Top 1 ROMANTIC KILLER, I like the romcom plot, the slice of life conflict is good, I also like the FL character, even though it won't air until fall 2022 but it's already complete because of Netflix's release, I really hope there's an S2

Top 2 BLEACH is also good because the 2022 series, the new arc is really good, I spent most of my time on this 366 eps anime marathon for 36 days, For the old anime, the animation is already good, the storyline is also very funny, the soundtrack is cool, especially the insert song called "number" one", but the downside is that it likes a lot of repeated scenes, typical of old anime, 1 ep 24 min to 15 min and quite a lot of filler eps, 45℅ out of 366 eps, typical of anime with a lot of eps, even though 150 eps is enough for adapting 54 volumes of the manga, but overall it's good

Favorite normal arc: Arrancar Downfall arc (eps 266-310)
Favorite filler arc: Zanpakuto Unknown Tales arc (eps 230-265)

Movie:
Top 1 ONE PIECE MOVIE 14 STAMPEDE lots of OP fans said this movie 14 was good, so I tried watching it, even though I didn't follow the series but I can say that movie 14 is interesting and actually better than the latest Red movie, lots of action and animation Good

Top 2 BLEACH MOVIE 4 Hellverse is also interesting because it is connected to hell

Notes: I have definitely watched/read the anime/manga that I give a rating
I will not give a rating below 5, Rating 5 for me = 1, >8 = recommended
if it's not good for me, the status "Dropped" and no rating

Complete Bleach Franchise Watch Order.
