    Alsk what would your personal harem be based on these characters?

    Slow-Burn and Long Romances like Maison Ikkoku

    Think I just found a style of romance that I love and think is compelling. Long tenured, unhurried, slow to develop. Tried searching around but haven’t quite been able to find anything close to it which would make so much sense. Any recommendations would be much appreciated!

    What are you guys and gals opinions on chainsaw man?

    I am trying to get into the show. There’s something about it that’s throwing me off. I will be honest the chainsaw transformation is not my style. Did you enjoy the story more than the action? Other than it being a shonen and supernatural what else can you say about this show?

    Just finished 86! Need some recommendations!

    Hello all! I just finished watching 86 (by the way GOD TEIR anime if you haven't watched it, watch it immediately and bring tissues) and I need some recommendations. I haven't had a lot of anime that made me tear up or gave me heart happy feelings at the end like this one did and it'd be nice to find another or atleast close to it.

    To give you a bit on insight as to what I'm looking for I've loved Code Geass, Fairy tail, Gundam 00/Iron Blood, Air Gear, Case Study Of Vanitas, Black Clover and a lot more but those are the main that popped into my head.

    Though I did enjoy sports ones like Haikyuu and Kuruko's Basketball.

    I'm clearly not too interested in solely slice of life/romance but I don't mind it as an add on.

    I don't like a lot of anime that have the main characters that look like just pure animated children so definetly none like that if you understand what I mean haha.

    Definetly need some form of action, supernatural, fantasy, mecca or genres similar.

    Either way other than a few things I listed I'm open to checking out a lot so if you have any recommendations please let me know and thank you for your time! :)

    P.S. watch 86 you won't regret it!

    Completely new to anime

    Hey! I am entirely new to anime — meaning I’ve never watched anything. To be honest I don’t even know what makes anime anime. Anyway: please give me some recommendations of anime that are good for first-time watchers. And give me your reasons why you like anime so much! :) Curious to see what the hype is about. Thanks!

    Trying to find a 2022+ anime I seen a clip of

    It was newer animation, looked historical vibes like My Next Life as a Villainess and has a prince/nobleman (?) with long purple hair as a playboy type being surprised the female MC isn't interested in him. Been looking for a while, so if anyone can help please.

    Looking for peaceful SAO alternative

    Yeah i wanted to watch Swords Art Online, But it is: long(not a big problem, only a tiny, at least it would last long), very gore(very big problem, never seen this much violence), very nsfw(seriously who puts rape and nudity in such a good anime… Oh, Its author). So i would like an anime, that has similar genre(system, everyone gets kidnapped, leveling, skills…), and does not have gore, nsfw content. Thank you beforehand.

    What would I like

    Hello, I’ve recently got into anime, but am struggling to find something new to enjoy.

    I started with Tokyo Goul and loved it and have since watched: Demon slayer, One punch man, 7 deadly sins, JuJutsu Kaisen, ATLA (I know it isn’t anime but similar thing), dragon ball Z

    Is there anything anyone could suggest for me to watch?

    Country songs in anime

    It seems like country music is slowly sneaking into anime. Between Unwanted Undead Adventurer (Keep Your Fire Burning by Mao Abe) and Tonari no Yokai- San (Iro no Naka by Kubo Aoi), it seems like more and more anime are getting country/ country- influenced music to go with them. Besides these two and Konosuba (Ouchi ni Kaeritai), are there any other shows/ movies that feature songs like this?

    I'm a fan of American country music, so I'd be interested to see what else Japan has to offer

    things that newcommers don't notice about anime as much as the others do.

    for me, when I first started watching anime, I never noticed the bad animation;

    For example, I never noticed that seven deadly sins S3 had a bad animation until I saw people mention it. But then when S4 came out, I couldn't finish it.

    Anime that’ll make me cry?

    I tried Hotaru no Haka, Fumetsu no Anata e, Violet Evergarden, and Koe no Katachi after a ton of people recommended it to me, and while they were sad, I didn’t cry.

    Some anime that did however make me cry are:

    Fruits Basket (peak)

    Anohana (too damn good)

    Orange (interesting plot)

    Wonder Egg Priority (except the shitty ending)

    Made in Abyss (sometimes)

    4-gatsu wa Kimi no Uso (powerful soundtrack)

    3-gatsu no lion (plain amazing, wish there was another season)

    Is there anything I should try based on these?

    Fantasy with a busty love interest or protag?

    Heyo.

    I'm hoping someone can help me find something to scratch a particular itch.

    I love fantasy. On the anime/manga side, i dig Berserk, Record of Lodoss War, Inuyasha, Freiren, Dorohedoro, and Attack on Titan; outside that, I love things like LotR, GoT, His Dark Materials, the Witcher, Warhammer 40K, D&D, Guillermo del Toro's work, etc... I gravitate towards darker high fantasy worlds. Great world building and characters make me a happy camper. I really dislike most isekai, especially when there's the video game aspect.

    My monkey brain also really likes boobs. Like... a lot. I want something where the protag or the love interest is stacked, but that's not all there is to her. Not necessarily looking for hentai. If there's sex or nudity, I want that to be a treat, not the main dish. Bonus points if she's an elf, goblin, or some other fantasy race.

    Thanks, y'all.

    Did Pokemon made anime mainstream in the US during the 90s and 2000s?

    Some people said that Pokemon was the show that made anime mainstream in the US in the 90s and 2000s. Do you think that Pokemon was actually the reason why anime became mainstream in the US back in the 90s and 2000s, or was it something else?

    Finshed Evangelion... What Should I Watch Next?

    So right off the bat, I want to apologize for yet another anime suggestion post, but I feel like what I am looking for is specific enough to warrant its own post. I recently finished Neon Genesis Evangelion, EoE, and the rebuilds, and now I am looking for something in a similar vein. I understand NGE really is its own unique thing, but I thought I’d list some of my favorite aspects of the show and request recommendations based on that.

    1. Plot driven story; Minimal filler episodes, every action has consequences.This may include the deaths of significant characters, or even the MC.
    2. Mature themes and topics; what I mean by this is that it deals with serious, real world topics or issues, such as mental illness, existentialism, etc.. I would prefer it to be a show clearly created for mature audiences. Note: This DOES NOT mean that I am opposed to supernatural or science-fiction elements.
    3. Minimal / limited comedic elements; I would love it if the primary tone of the show is dramatic, not comedic.
    4. Dynamic / developed characters; characters grow significantly over the course of the show and are deeply impacted by the events of the show.

    Maybe it will help if I note that some other anime I have really enjoyed include Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop, Ōoku: The Inner Chambers, Cyberpunk: Edge Runners, and obviously the majority of the Ghibli catalog. I understand these don’t necessarily conform to my above criteria, but if I could get some suggestions on some shows that meet at least some of these criteria I would greatly appreciate it.

    P.S. I’ll also mention that I have already been recommended Serial Experiments Lain and Gurren Lagann and plan to watch them both.

    an anime character that was introduced as a gag but then it turned into a very well-written character.

    by that, I mean that the character was excpected to be a side character that no one will remember at the end of the series;

    but then, it had a bigger rule in the story or maybe a more complex personality;

    for me, it's Dimple from Mob psycho. (the reasoning is in the comment section)
