    mann what a ride it was...this is one of the best written sports anime ive seen and im sure the manga takes the journey forward too....i just love sports anime where its just not restricted to high school and the mc doesnt have superpower and all that bs, also the romance here was top notch, (icl i loved the romance so much more than some romance animes ive seen)....just wanted to catch up on a few things

    - why was there no season 3??
    - why did the Manga stop (i read that it stopped before completion)
    -was there a timeskip where we got some updates about Marou and Natsus future
    -where should i start reading the manga from (if it is all translated)

    Can’t remember where a scene is from, of if it even existed now…

    I have a very strong memory of a particular scene that involves a character ugly crying while anata no yoru ga akeru plays in the background. Does anyone recognize this at all, or am I just misremembering tragic scenes?

    Poke poke, sound effects

    Where can I find the sound effects used in anime? For example, when something or someone is being poked, bwop bwop. Sounds like a water droplet.

    Need help finding an anime !!!

    Okay.. Weird scenario but here goes nothing. I was in the shower, right? And I’m just getting finished but then I hear something coming from the window. I hear talking, like from a show my neighbor is probably watching. By how they’re speaking, I can only assume it’s a dub of something. As of now I’m assuming it’s either an anime or a kdrama. Now I really want to know what it is but I didn’t get any character names from listening so all I have is a bunch of random lines I heard. I would really appreciate if ANYONE could help identify where these lines came from!

    (In no specific order):

    “Come on, don’t be like that! Let me put it in your underwear-“ (I think they say a name after but I have no idea what it was. Something like “Lord ___”)

    “Does it sound like this? Those wind chimes, you love(d) so much.”

    “In other words it is his majesty who wants to keep secret about this.”

    “You did well. I have to ask, do you intend to-“ (Something about a palace comes after?)

    “Normally, no. But you are not one to come by without a reason.

    “Hey! Bring me better food now!”

    “Uncle abused his power as a royal relative.”

    “This matter will be mine to sort out.”

    “I wish to be by your side, hold you in my arms, have long conversations with you.”

    Extra Info: They kept mentioning “Royal Relative” and this show seems to take place in a less modern time? They also talked about some guy killing a little girl.

    What anime to watch?

    I just want a high school sad depressing romance anime, so far nothing has even come close to a silent voice.

    Golden time, shit. Tunnel to summer, good but not as good. Hykoura, good but not as good.

    I just want an anime where its depressing and sad asf, but slowly gets better.

    A silent voice ( happy - sad depressed - happy ) = good ending. ( sad endings are good too )

    Liz And The Blue Bird f*cking destroyed me.

    I am still sobbing while writing this. I've never had an experience this good with a movie (anime or live action) probably ever before. And i don't even think it's a recency bias here. I just put on the movie expecting some side shenanigans with some of the side characters. And getting an in depth characterization of Nozomi and Yoroizuka was really, really wholesome and heartbreaking at the same time. I love every moment, every 'show don't tell' scene that the staff at the KyoAni took to express how these two characters are thinking and what are they seeing in each other including both good qualities and flaws. And finally communicating it at the end.

    I just adored the juxtaposition of the opening 9-10 minute-scene of Yoroizuka following Nozomi with the ending scene of Yoroizuka going in a different direction than her and both having communicated their feelings and being happy with their differences. The music of Kensuke Ushio in both those scenes (and the whole movie) is just the best. He is now officially my favorite composer of all time.

    As an introvert and a socially anxious person I related to Yoroizuka but it was great seeing Nozomi was also heartbroken and didn't realize how much she herself helped her friend overcome a bit of social anxiety and giving Yoroizuka a push towards something that luckily ended up being her calling and giving her the confidence of making friends other than her.

    The art style change from the show was a bit jarring at first (reminded me of A Silent Voice) but I got used to it pretty easily. And I hope the series gets dubbed too if this spin-off movie is dubbed. It's very random but this was the only thing that bothered me a little bit.

    I am not big on anime movies in general. I didn't enjoy Spirited away, The boy and the heron, suzume, weathering with you, alice in the wonderland. I just thought they needed a show or something to flesh out the world. I did not like Your Name at the 1st watch but after watching multiple reaction and analysis of the movie, I don't dislike it as much. The only 2 movies I like the first time I watched them are A Silent Voice and Liz and the Blue Bird. And I am so glad that both are by KyoAni and the music of both is composed by Kensuke Ushio. I am so happy that I gave Hibike Euphonium a chance. I still have the canon movie and season 3 to watch. I am so excited and glad I have more of this show.

    I love Kyoto Animation. It's so sad that some animators who worked on this ended up getting killed in the arson attack. It just baffles me how one can think of doing something this sickening to a group of passionate individuals.

    Any more suggestion of movies or shows that have this good writing and fleshed out characters are welcome.

    In need of remembering a niche anime

    I vaguely remember watching a video on this anime, but I don't remember the name of it.

    The plot was basically this short, pale man with a black suit and a bag appearing whenever there was someone in desperate need of their life changing. The man would make a deal with that person, and he would give the person an item that completely fixes their problem, which the show follows that person of the episode to see how they succeed. If the person were to use the item in a selfish way or not give that item back after the deed was done, (I think that's the rules, but I don't remember. I watched the video a year or so ago) the person would get punished by the man with mysterious magic.

    There was an attempted reboot of the anime in I believe the 2010's, but there wasn't any hype for it. Please let me know what it is.

    What are some of your guilty pleasure Anime waifus

    We always talk about our favourite waifus, but who are some of yall guilty pleasure waifus? If you don't know what it means, it basically means that the waifus you know are complete red flags / bad for you in real life but you still wanna date them?

    For me, it would be

    Kurumi from Date A Live

    Albedo and Shalltear from Overlord (They're not exactly red flags per se, but imagine what would happen if you piss one of them off)

    I doubt anyone can tell me but I'm trying to find this scene.

    So basically, I'm trying to find an anime simply based on a scene that traumatized my younger self. So a long time ago my dad was watching an anime, and I came in and started watching it with him. I vividly remember watching a dude and a girl interrogate a guy while he was tied up to a chair with a gun pointed at his crotch if I remember correctly, and the gun was basically part of a trap that would set off with a bird shaped timer. The guy and girl interrogating him leave and we hear the bird clock chirp a sound like "pickwee" and a bang from the gun followed by an obvious scream of pain, and more "pickwee"s and gunshots until the guy is presumably dead. They cut outside to the chicken and dude walking away and she comments something about how the guy like looked up her skirt while she wasn't wearing panties or something and how she wanted the dude to look at her like that or whatever weird shit anime girls say and the dude just tells her she's too young for him or whatever. Basically that last bit doesn't matter I just talked about it because maybe it'll help I have no clue I left the room after that but I want to re-experience my childhood trauma of watching a man be shot to death for whatever reason. Thanks and I hope everyone has a fantastic day.

    Is it possible to watch anime without spending lots of money?

    The only free site (Crunchyroll) makes you spend 100 dollars per year, and if you don’t pay that 90% of anime is locked behind a paywall and literally have 3 sets of 6 ads, all of them 30 seconds long (this is literally not a joke, it’s so bad). Any websites that stream anime try and give me viruses no matter which ones I try (can’t list them due to the rules). So I’m out of options. Do you guys have anything to watch anime on without paying or getting viruses? I assumed anime would be easier to access

    F-word in Captain Tsubasa? (2018)

    So I’m on episode 14 of captain tsubasa and I’m at the part where it’s the beginning of the first match in the nationals against Kojiro Hyuga’s team and the subtitles say “Hey, you’re the kid who made that pledge yesterday. {how dare he not know the fucking Ozora Tsubasa?}

    I’d assume this wasn’t actually said, right?

    Name an anime that doesn’t deserve how good their OP or ED is.

    I’ll start.

    My choice would be Onegai Muscle. It’s not that Onegai Muscle is bad per se. Rather, its that it’s OP is so frickin catchy despite it being an anime about exercise. Instant mood booster. Read the manga, watched the anime. Fan service aside, solid fitness advice.

    What are yours??

    Looking for anime recommendations

    Hi guys, I'm looking for something great to watch, any recommendations and why, without spoilers. I just appreciate good anime in general.

    Anime I've seen all of or am up to date on:

    Code Geass, Death note, my hero, kill la kill, monster, one piece, hxh, yuyu, FMA, bebop, champloo, Titan, Vinland, Dman Crybaby, demon slayer, stein's gate, JJK, baccano, FLCL, Mob, OPM, Frieren, DB/Z/S, Assassination classroom, Gintama, Odd Taxi, Gurren Laggan, Black Clover, Tower of God, solo leveling, god of high school, Spy x Family.

    I'm sure i've seen a few more and they're just not popping in my head, but there are some surprisingly obvious ones i haven't seen, like bleach and naruto, so don't just think because i named a bunch of mainstream ones i have seen them all.

    My fav 5 in no particular order would be HxH, Frieren (I did not think i'd love it but wow I did, considering reading the manga), Code Geass, One Piece, Gintama.

    Thanks so much!

    Is From Me To You season 2 worth watching?

    As the title says, I’m wondering if I should watch season 2? I really liked season one, but based off episodes 1 and 2 I feel like season 2 may just be exactly like s1 and dragged out? I would like to be wrong but I don’t really want to waste my time if that’s correct.

    I'm looking for some anime where mc is op and it would be better if there's no harem or at least less it makes the anime kinda cringe sometimes

    A few examples - slime, cautious hero, classroom of the elite, code geass, Charlotte, the misfit of the demon king academy Also it would be fine if he's op in either way like by brain or by power.
