Shows that feel likeStar Wars: The Bad Batch (2021–2024)

The 'Bad Batch' of elite and experimental clones make their way through an ever-changing galaxy in the immediate aftermath of the Clone Wars.

If you loved Star Wars: The Bad Batch, the closest series we have are The Book of Boba Fett (2021), Ahsoka (2023) and Devilman Crybaby (2018). All three share Star Wars: The Bad Batch's kinetic and epic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- (2016).
