WIT Studio built its name on the first three seasons of Attack on Titan, then proved it was not a one-hit studio with Vinland Saga, Ranking of Kings, and Vivy. It is a smaller, choosier catalog than the giants — and the hit rate is high. Here is the WIT library ranked on SenpaiRanks by Consensus score, with where to watch each.
Quick answer
According to SenpaiRanks, the best WIT Studio anime by Consensus are Shingeki no Kyojin / Attack on Titan (8.54, peaking at 9.00 in Season 3 Part 2), Vinland Saga (8.26), and Ousama Ranking / Ranking of Kings (8.09). WIT also co-produced Spy x Family with CloverWorks. The list below is ordered by SenpaiRanks Consensus — the score for how broadly a show lands with anime-native voters.
The ranked list
1. Shingeki no Kyojin (Attack on Titan) — SenpaiRanks Consensus 8.54

2. Vinland Saga — SenpaiRanks Consensus 8.26
WIT Studio, 2019, 24 episodes. A Viking revenge saga that turns into one of the medium's best character studies. SenpaiRanks tracks it at 8.26 — top-tier seinen. Streaming on Crunchyroll and Netflix by region.

What WIT does differently
WIT picks fewer projects and pushes the animation harder — the reason its catalog skews high on our Quality axis, not just Consensus. That split is the point: MyAnimeList collapses "widely liked" and "technically excellent" into one number, so a gorgeous show with a divisive ending and a crowd-pleaser look identical. We keep them separate. Compare the WIT board against the best seinen anime and the best Madhouse anime.
