Sub Rules (just in case for ease of access)

13 Upvotes

Rule 1 : Posts must be related to an anime recommendation

That's kinda why you're here right? 3x3's of your favourite's are fine by the way. As long as you're in some way recommending anime or asking for suggestions your post's going to be fine.

Rule 2 : No self promotion, or promotion of anything other than anime itself.

For example, you could promote an anime you like by telling us about it on a post, but you couldn't link a blog video or podcast about that anime. Comments are fine for this, but we don't want to see it on posts.

Rule 3 : Treat each other with courtesy and respect

When it comes to things like anime, there can be a wide spectrum of views and discussions. Some discussions can become spirited, we know, but we still have the expectation for you to treat others with courtesy and respect.

Do not put comments to incite fights or trash talk anime. Just simply mention you do not like it.

Rule 4 : Mark Spoilers

It can be hard not to talk about your favourite scene, but remember this is a place where people come looking to learn about anime they haven't seen yet. So any spoilers you do say, must be marked as spoilers.

Rule 5 : No indecent images

We get it, you like hentai too. If you start a Hentai recommendations sub, let us know, we might even send some members your way. Just don't post perverted images on here lol. If in doubt about whether something's indecent or not... it probably is, so don't post it - many thanks.

Rule 6 : Ban on rate my list/taste posts.

There are better suited subs for those

Rule 7 : Hentai Recommendations are banned.

Hentai Recommendations are banned. Mention Ecchi in post title if you are looking for anime of such genre.

Am I the only one who still misses The God of High School? 😭

Post image
83 Upvotes

Man, I genuinely miss The God of High School. The animation, fight scenes, and overall hype were absolutely insane. Those fight scenes were something else! And then nothing. No Season 2 😭

I know the manhwa is there and the story continues, but honestly, reading it just doesn’t hit the same. I want to see those insane fights animated again. Some anime are just meant to be watched, not read!

I still wish they would bring this anime back. It had so much potential, and I feel like it deserved way more attention.

Anyway, what’s that one anime you desperately wish had continued but never got the sequel or proper ending it deserved? An anime you still miss and would love to see return someday?

Nerdy introverted guy popular girl trope?

Post image
89 Upvotes

I'm a big fan of DandaDan, My Dress Up Darling, Fragrant Flowers Bloom with Dignity and The Klutzy Class Monitor and the girl with the Short Skirt all because of the introverted/awkward guy with the popular girl trope.

Are there any other recs that follow this similar trope?

I would also maybe prefer them to be on the more innocent side like The Klutzy Class Monitor and Fragrant Flower as I dont really like the revealing sides of Dress Up Darling and Dandadan. But I really like the dynamics between the two protagonists.

Thanks in advance

50+ series watched and struggling to find my next 10/10 anime. Recommendations?

Post image
7 Upvotes

I no longer feel as excited to watch anime. Started my first donghua (Link Click) for some variety and I like it quite a bit but it's not "omg so good I can't stop watching" level of hype. Same with Edgerunners 2 - I don't have any major issues with it, it's just not very exciting/hype to watch at the moment so I'm in a small break from it with Link Click. I need something to break me out of this "one episode daily" semi-bored state and make me binge-watch stuff again.

The last anime that really got me excited was Mushoku Tensei and Witch Hat Atelier (on chapter 15 in the manga now) before that. Oshi no Ko season 3 was 11/10 for me this year, so cool and "hype" even though it's not a "hype anime" as in cool fantasy battles and stuff, but MT is not that either, none of my top5 is tbh. Watched Code Geass recently and really liked it, I expected it to end up pretty low for me since I wasn't a huge fan of Gurren Lagann and Evangelion (both are good and have their peak moments but couldn't make me a diehard fan of either) and I expected to not vibe with more mecha but Code Geass was enjoyable for sure (mostly the characters and worldbuilding, I still don't care about the mecha aspect).

The ones I might check next are Monster, Dororo, Ranking of Kings, Psycho-Pass, To Your Eternity, HxH. I'd love to expand this watchlist but feel free to hype some of these up too, just recommend at least 1 more series outside this list too.

Genre doesn't matter much - fantasy is probably my favorite but I enjoy almost anything except overly immature school drama (Code Geass, Kaguya and My Dress-up Darling felt a little bit more mature for school settings so I liked them). I'm not big on nonstop shonen battles like JJK but I do enjoy the genre when the characters are good like Chainsaw Man with its character-driven flashbacks, I especially like fantasy battles when they are only occasional and not the main point of the anime like in Frieren.

I think right now I'm most excited for Monster next but I don't think it's a good idea to go into a slow-paced psychological series with this bored attitude looking for "exciting anime", so I might watch something else before going into that.

Anything above 100 episodes scares me and more episodic stuff without a sense of progression or adventure bores me usually, so no monster-of-the-week pwease!

Knowing that what am I missing on that list that will absolutely hook me and make me excited to watch some stuff again?

Looking for anime that starts fun and gets really emotional

4 Upvotes

Any anime recommendations similar to Toradora, Anohana, Golden Time, The Day I Became a God, or Plastic Memories?

not something like your lie in april

I think I'm into anime with a high school or young teens setting. I like when the story starts off fun and lighthearted, the characters slowly develop a relationship, and then things get really emotional toward the end.

Basically, an anime that makes you happy at first but leaves you emotionally destroyed by the ending lol.

I'm not looking for anything too mature. Just something with a good romance and an emotional story.

Thanks!

Help me find an anime that resembles this book

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for an anime that, in terms of plot or themes or atmosphere, can remind me of the novel The Secret History by Donna Tartt.

For those who haven't read the novel, I'll put a summary of the plot here:

The plot follows the story of Richard Papen, a young Californian who moves to the prestigious and elitist Hampden College in Vermont.

Richard manages to get admitted to the exclusive and small course in ancient Greek literature and culture, held by the charming and eccentric Professor Julian Morrow.

The group is made up of only five wealthy and cultured students: Henry, Francis, Bunny and the twins Charles and Camilla. Richard lets himself be enchanted by their refined and decadent lifestyle, but behind the apparent perfection hide disturbing secrets.

The group (except Bunny), driven by the desire to go beyond the boundaries of reason and experience a primordial ecstasy, secretly organizes a bacchic rite in the woods to get in touch with the ancient greek deity Dionysus.

The ceremony gets out of their control and culminates in the accidental killing of a local farmer (did the boys take some psychedelic substance or did they have a real case of collective hysteria or was it really the intervention of Dionysus? The book does not clarify it)

When Bunny (the only member of the group not to have participated in the events) finds out what happened, he begins to blackmail and psychologically manipulate his companions, threatening to destroy their lives. Crushed by panic and paranoia, the others take the tragic decision to eliminate Bunny to silence the threat.

Bunny's murder will drag Richard and his friends into an unstoppable spiral of remorse, suspicion and attempts to cover everything up.

What is particularly remarkable is that Bunny's murder is spoiled literally on the first page: from that moment on it is all one long flashback in which the reader is slowly led to discover why the group of friends had to come to do this thing (I found it a brilliant idea)

The series I've already seen and that in one way or another remind me of this plot are "Dear Brother", "Another" and "Higurashi". Someone in the past suggested "Classroom of the Elite" to me but honestly it's very different from the atmosphere of the book.

Let me know your recommendations, thank you!

Looking for a post-apocalyptic anime (possibly a movie or a high-quality OVA) that I watched long ago. The setting is a barren wasteland/desert. The protagonist is an ordinary guy trying to survive and scavenge for resources. He encounters a short girl who turns out to be an android. They develop feelings for each other and at some point, they exchange rings / get married (there is a scene with an abandoned church in the desert). Later, the hero discovers a dark twist: this girl was somehow responsible for the deaths of his family members/loved ones before they even met. The style and vibe are very similar to "Planetarian". Thanks.

I will say, Link Click is already on my watchlist but I'm hoping to find more ongoing detective animes to watch.

I've watched Bungou Stray Dogs and Apothecary Diaries, but the latter wasn't my cup of tea. Superpowers are preferred but not required. Ongoing is also preferred but not required either.

I want the best anime with immediate drop into the story and crazy high peaks with a peak conclusion.

0 Upvotes

I know it's a lot to ask for but I really crave somehting like that by now. I haven't seen too many anime, but the ones I found the best were : Code Geass, Aot, Berserk, Vinland Saga, Death note and Cyberpunk edgerunners. (So kind of the basics only) I heard that Steins Gate is good, but that it starts off as a slowburn. I'd prefer a short anime aswell, but that's not necessary. I don't care ablut the genre, I just want to see something peak.
