Kurozuka is a story that takes place in the 12th century as we follow Kurou (His real name is Minamoto no Yoshitsune) on his mysterious journey. After being defeated by his brother Minamoto no Yorimito, Kurou runs off into the mountains in humiliation. Many believed that he committed suicide after the events but instead, Kurou comes across a beautiful woman named Kuromitsu in her mountain retreat. Allured by her elegance Kurou falls in love with her not knowing that she's holding a deep dark secret, that she is an immortal vampire that stops at nothing to seduce her enemies into submission.

Kurou learns throughout the story that he too can live forever but was unsure of this in the beginning until Kuromitsu revealed this to him. Kuromitsu is very deceptive in her ways and there is something that she doesn't reveal to Kurou that we recommend you watch to find out more. There is some historical reference pertaining to Kurou and his actual character in the series. According to the popular Japanese literary novel “Heike Monotagari” or Tale of the Heike, Kurou was a well-known skilled swordsman who fought countless battles and eventually was betrayed by his brother, leading him and his family to commit seppuku. This deep and fascinating story is one we recommend you read but also watch in this fantastic anime rendition of Kurou's actual life.

D.Gray Man was a very popular series that released in October of 2006 starring main protagonist Allen Walker on his journey to discover more truth behind his cursed eye, and to put a stop to the terrible plot that Millennium Earl is planning. Earl is the antagonist of the series and his entire pursuit is to trick people with their dead relatives and friends in order to create demons. His immortality grants him eternal power through sorcery and he intends to use it to destroy the planet. Earl had formed a pact with the Noah Clan in his past which allowed him to use his current powers to reign supreme over humanity. Main creator Katsura Hoshino stated that she based the character off the legendary alchemist Dorian Gray which is presumably where the title D.Gray Man originated from.

Millennium Earl's appearance is that of a Victorian gentleman with some bizarre features such as his over exaggerated grin which remains fixed when he eats or speaks, and his eyes permanently shrouded behind a pair of spectacles. Earl shows two different sides to him throughout the series, one who is very cheerful and friendly while the other half is sadistic showing no remorse for the lives of others. D.Gray Man is receiving a new season this summer and so we highly recommend if you'd like to know more about this immortal being, be sure to check out D.Gray Man Hallow July 5th.

Baccano! released in the summer of 2007 running for 13 episodes.

We follow characters Issac and Mira, two thieves whose lives become a huge adventure revolving around alchemy, survival, and immortality. Set in the 1930's, the pair must investigate the objective behind the Flying Pussyfoot, a transcontinental train, that seeks out to leave a trail of blood in its path. Furthermore, an ambitious scientist along with his aide are in search for the elixir bottles that grant immortality. This entire adventure is filled with ups and downs and so Issac and Mira must work with other characters through the show, and come to the conclusion behind all that is transpiring.

While not much else is explained behind her character, she is aware of where the elixirs are located and so she along with everyone else must track down the rest of the immortals to find out more information.

Blade of the Immortal follows the story of protagonist Manji on his journey to break the curse which grants him immortality. Manji was cursed with the Kessen-Chu by a nun which gives him immortal life, however this was something he didn't really come to enjoy. The curse was placed on him because he brutally killed 100 innocent men in the name of his twisted Daimyo. In order for Manji to break this curse and return to being a normal human, he must kill one thousand evil men to repay his debt. Throughout the anime he is given the title “Mister Twelve Blades” due to him carrying weapons of that amount around on his journey.

Manji comes across Rin who vows to seek revenge against the sword school whose members slaughtered her family. The two work closely in order to seek peace in both of their lives, but are constantly bombarded by enemies that lie in wait. We highly suggest watching Manji because it tells a story of a man who shows regret for his actions, and is trying to serve justice to restore balance in the world that he lives in.

Ritsuko is an immortal who specializes in the art of magic, traveling the countryside to perform healing rituals. She can also perform sexual magic spells when under pressure, especially since she must do a lot of traveling between books. Ritsuko was appointed to the job of being an alchemist to protect Princess Mariel, but things take a turn for the worse when one of her closest colleagues betrays her and so she must now use her special powers to save the princess from harm. This anime is not talked about too frequently and so to promote a really cool series we decided to throw Ritsuko into the mix to give you something fresh.

Celty is the black rider or “Headless Rider” in the Durarara!! series and we chose her as part of the top five immortal anime characters just for you. Celty is a Dullahan from Ireland who travels to Japan in search for her stolen head. The motorcycle she rides is merely a dark horse in disguise and so we're immediately reminded of the classic novel headless horseman the minute we see her. Celty has no heart and so she feels out her surroundings using unknown sensors which are not located in her head. Her strength is beyond that of a normal human but not to the level of Shizuo, who surpasses just about everyone in the series. Celty also has the power to spawn a shadow like durable substance to form objects that range from a large scythe to a chariot all at will.

Throughout the series Celty usually is out on her own in search for her missing head, but often gets tangled in with Mikado's endeavors having to save him from gang related incidents that frequently take place around Ikebukuro. She is one of the very few characters in the series who know the real identity of The Dollars creator, but due to her inability to speak we never get a chance to find out. So perhaps that should your cue to check out Durarara!! to find out who's behind all of the nonsense in the city, but also to see if Celty will get her head back.

Together they must work as a team along with Allucard's new minion, Seras Victoria, to put a stop not only to the deadly foes that confront them but also the corrupt Vatican and Millennium that stand in their way.

Allucard is the main protagonist of the very popular Hellsing anime. He is a vampire and the most powerful warrior of the Hellsing organization which works against vampires and other supernatural forces. Allucard just isn't your ordinary vampire, he is an immortal being with an assortment of other powers that make him pretty much unstoppable. Allucard can regenerate at any given moment that he is dismembered or killed, hypnotize his enemies very convincingly, and has a high resistance to most weaknesses that normal vampires suffer from. His list of skills go on for a number of pages but to save time, we suggest you watch the entire series to find out more about this overpowered hero.

Berserk is slated to release its new season in the franchise this summer, so in honor of the new series we present to you The Skull Knight. The Skull Knight is one of the most mysterious characters in the Berserk series because not much is explained behind his back story. He is an imposing warrior dressed in full skull shaped armor, who rides on a ghostly black horse. He is the enemy of the Godhand and its acolytes, skillfully hunting down Apostles and feeding on their Behelits especially Zodd the Immortal. The Skull Knight wields a deadly sword that when stuck down his throat, becomes a threatening, Behelit-coated blade that allows him to cut rifts through reality and roam freely between different dimensions. We don't want to give away too much about the story, but if you'd like to find out how The Skull Knight acquired his immortality then be sure to watch not only the latest series, but the original as well.

We are going to take a look at Ban who is one of the primary characters in the series, and is the only character who represents immortality.

Ban is the sin of greed and a fox symbol is located on his lower left abdomen. Due to the false information that was released to the kingdom, Ban had been imprisoned in the baste dungeon to serve out the rest of his life. Fortunately for Ban, he can't die so he instead tries to break out of his cell to reunite with his fellow members. Without spoiling too much of the show, Ban gained immortality from the fountain of youth in the fairy king's forest which led to his nickname “undead Ban”. He now uses his infinite strength to engage in battle with his enemies to put a stop to the onslaught that is ensuing within the kingdom grounds. Despite his very sinister appearance, Ban is actually a very warm hearted individual who only tries to serve a purpose, but sometimes winds up in more trouble than he should.
