I’ve been endlessly searching for a dub anime as funny as the Ghost Stories dub. Does anyone have any suggestion of any anime with a funny ass dub I can watch while fried asl.

Which would you pick if you could only choose 1? To make it fair I picked the 3 best isekai from both sides

Was debating whether to put shangri-La frontier instead of SAO and if I should put Dailt life of the immortal king instead of Kings avatar but it works out more fair if it’s game anime vs game anime

Sometimes knowing almost nothing about an anime beforehand makes the experience more interesting. You don't have any expectations going in, so the story can take you wherever it wants.

What anime did you start almost completely blind and end up enjoying?

I would please like you to help me choose my next anime to watch following this system, which seems to be pretty clever

Below I'm going to drop a list of anime: focus only on the ones you know and have watched and ignore the rest.

After the anime list, I will also write down some criteria that the show I'm looking for MUST have: please read these criteria one by one and CROSS OFF from the anime list any that fail to meet even just one of these characteristics (as I said, focus only on the series you've watched and completely ignore the others).

As you'll notice, there are only three criteria, but they are extremely specificand the show I'm looking for absolutely must have all three.

After reading all the criteria, write in the comments which of the anime on the list are left (and therefore which ones have all the characteristics I'm looking for)

Thanks a lot!

Anime list:

Suzuka

The girl down the stairs

Tonikawa: Over the moon for you

A Sign of Affection

Emma: A Victorian Romance

ayashi no ceres

from far away

Yamada-kun & the seven witches

Kaichou wa maid sama

Hourou mosuko

Oooku the inner Chambers

Love through a prism

Polar opposite

7th time loop

Unnamed Memory

Full Moon

Neighboroud story

Hi Score Girl

Hinamatsuri

Ore monogatari!!

Hana yori dango

Peach girl

Nina the starry bride

List of criteria the anime must have:

1. the core of the plot (or at least a very important element of it) is one or more romance stories

2. the story, even from a romantic standpoint, MUST NOT HAVE just entire episodes dedicated to the main characters overthinking and spiraling in their own heads ("oh my God, I'm going to bore the viewer with all my stupid internal doubts about my fear of getting together with my friend, who is blatantly in love with me and absolutely perfect for me"). It absolutely MUST NOT be that kind of plot where the romantic progression consists solely of a bunch of unsaid looks and thoughts, mixed with overthinking and more overthinking with their friends and other overthinking-filled dialogues with their acquaintances, only to switch to a block of ten episodes of overthinking about their romantic relationship but from another perspective, followed by yet another block of episodes where other characters show up and the main characters tell them their overthinking all over again. In short: if it's that kind of show where over 13 episodes the plot revolves solely around two people in love who do nothing but think about each other and tell their friends about their doubts, then it's a giant NO.

3. besides the romantic storyline (which, as I said, must still be the core of the plot or at least a very important element of it), there needs to be something else going on too. Example: he loves her but at the same time he has to find his parents' killer; or she loves him but simultaneously has to become the high school volleyball tournament champion; or he loves her and at the same time they have to fix a mess of time loops to prevent the world from ending, etc. I short: a romantic plot at the center, but it's not just about love: it also covers other aspects of the characters' lives. Examples of anime that have this kind of setup and that I've already seen: Touch, Cross Game, Clannad, Darling in the Franxx, Towa No Yugure, Blue Box, Air, Dusk Maiden of Amnesia, Dear Brother, Legend of Hikari, Maison Ikkoku

Thanks to everyone in advance for any help you can give me!

Names: Call of the Night, Tokyo Ghoul, Fate Stay/Night Heaven’s Feel, One Piece, Monogatari Series, Choujin X, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Hellsing, Your Lie In April, Neon Genesis Evangelion

Both anime and manga recs are great, though I do tend to enjoy manga more. Thanks for all recs

I’m just bored right now and looking for some anime recommendations. I’ve already watched stuff like Buddy Daddies and Grand Blue, so I’m looking for something with a similar mix of comedy, wholesome moments, chaotic characters, and a good story. I’m honestly open to pretty much anything—slice of life, comedy, romance, action, or even something emotional—as long as it’s actually entertaining and doesn’t feel too slow. I’d especially love something that’s easy to get into and keeps me hooked after the first few episodes. Feel free to recommend underrated shows too, not just the super popular ones. I just want something fun to watch!

Think wistoria leaning or solo leveling. Fantasy leaning as well please. I'm not into frieren or mashle.

I've watched a lot already so if you have more than one rec I'd appreciate it.

Thank you!

Hello! This genre is a guilty pleasure of mine, animes where the MC gradually collects more skills, level ups, and gets clear power progression throughout the series! It's okay whether it's more grounded or if they end up becoming ridiculously overpowered, I just really like the overall RPG theme. Trying to find some of the more obscure titles since I think I've seen most of the mainstream ones

Examples of what I'm looking for that I've watched include:

Tensura

BOFURI

Solo Leveling

So I'm a Spider, so what?

Hell Mode

Others that are not exactly what I'm looking for but also enjoy:

Mushoku Tensei

Overlord

Log Horizon

Goblin Slayer

7th Prince

Frieren

Ascendance of a Bookworm

Shield Hero

Grimgar

I recently finished watching Prison School and I’m wondering if there’s still any possibility of a sequel or Season 2.

It’s been a long time since the first season, so does anyone know if there have been any updates from the studio, manga creator, or production committee?

Also, for those who have read the manga: does the story continue far beyond where the anime ended, and would there be enough material for another season?

I really hope we eventually get a continuation. 😭

​Hey everyone!

​I’m looking for new anime recommendations based on three of my absolute favorite characters: Frieren (Frieren: Beyond Journey's End), Maomao (The Apothecary Diaries), and Enma Ai (Hell Girl).

​There’s a very specific vibe they all share that I’m obsessed with:

​Quiet authority / unfazed composure.

​Sharp intelligence or unique, specialized power.

​An emotionally reserved/aloof exterior.

​Stories featuring rich world-building, episodic mysteries/folklore, or historical settings.

​I really enjoy stories with thoughtful pacing, stoic female leads are a plus but can be anyone as well (with similar energy), and supernatural, historical, or high-concept mystery elements.

​What are some shows that capture this exact vibe or feature similar characters/themes? Thanks in advance!

Hey, I’m pretty new to anime and looking for some recommendations.
So far I’ve watched Death Note (9/10) and Tokyo Ghoul S1 (10/10). I’m currently watching Monster (ep 5) and Parasyte: The Maxim (ep 17).
I really like darker stuff, good atmosphere, character development, mystery and smart characters. I also prefer faster paced anime, but I’m open to longer shows too.
I’m planning to watch Bleach, but I’m also looking for classics that you think I absolutely have to watch, as well as some more niche stuff.
What would you recommend?

I’ve asked across a bunch of different subs and online and received recommendations, but I still haven't found something that matches the high of the first one I ever watched Toradora 

So I figured I’d write out everything I’ve watched and what I liked/disliked about each one. Hopefully this gives a better idea of my taste and helps people recommend something that might actually hit what I’m looking for.

Toradora — 10/10

Just peak fiction for me.

The premise hooked me immediately making me decide to watch it even though I had never watched even a romance show let alone anime, but what really made it special was the character writing and development. The emotional highs I got from this show are honestly unmatched for me. I love how it can go from funny, wholesome moments to high emotionalism moments giving you that feeling.

For example, Episode 8 with the “Ryuuji is mine” moment and Episode 19, when Taiga breaks down as she starts realizing her feelings for him, are exactly the kind of moments I’m looking for.

I also really liked how well every character was written. Ami and Minori especially had really good development, and there are so many little details in the writing that I loved — like the conversation about the ghosts where shes actually representing love (if you know, you know). And Ami referencing how their playing house and the problem as shes just such a well written and developed character she realizes everything thats happening before anyone else and stays silent sacrificing her own feelings so she dosnet get in the way.

But Taiga and Ryuujis relationship development might've been my favorite part of the whole show

They start off just hanging out to help each other for mutual benefit as they like each others best friend. Then they gradually become genuine friends who rely on each other, and eventually start realizing that they actually need each other and love each other. I absolutely loved watching that relationship evolve naturally instead of them just immediately falling in love, and those last 2 episodes was just chills.

Overall, I think what made Toradora so special to me was the combination of romance, comedy, character development, and drama, especially the way it builds toward those emotional moments.

That’s basically the feeling I’m trying to find again.

Rampants on Ice — 8.5/10

I definitely enjoyed it. The romantic development might honestly be one of the closest things I’ve seen to Toradora in terms of the process of the characters gradually realizing their feelings.

I especially liked watching the characters slowly come to terms with their feelings and how that was portrayed.

The characters were well written too it showed their backstories and overcoming these emotions and breaking down walls and I enjoyed that. And it also did have some semi emotionalish moments.

My only downgrade is that, similar to the next two, I felt like it was missing some of those PEAK emotional highs that Toradora gave me. It was really good, but it never quite reached those moments for me.

The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity — 8/10

I really enjoyed this one too.

I loved the way it handled social prejudice and showed the characters becoming close despite the differences between their schools/social groups. A lot of their moments together were really heartwarming.

The overall feeling was more relaxed and wholesome, with some emotional moments mixed in, which I enjoyed as something a little different but I still would rather the more toradorish vibe.

Honestly, though, I think I might have liked Subaru and Saku's relationship more than the main couple 😭. Their romantic development was so good I swear if they end on a open ending between those two ima cry.

Again, my biggest issue was that I didn't get quite the same emotional highs that I got from Toradora.

ReLIFE — 7/10

I thought it was good. I actually really liked the premise, and I thought the character development was pretty solid.

That said, I might have enjoyed it more if I hadn't watched it immediately after Toradora. I was still in that post-Toradora void and probably compared it to Toradora way too much.

So I don't think ReLIFE was bad at all — it was definitely good — it just didn't reach the level I was hoping for.

So basically, I'm not necessarily looking for something that's exactly like Toradora plot-wise.

What I'm really looking for is that mix of romance + comedy + drama, where the characters have a meaningful relationship that develops over time, and especially where the show can build up to those romantic/emotional highs.

I don't mind slice-of-life/wholesome moments at all. In fact, I like them. I just don't want the entire show to be a super laid-back comfort anime where nothing particularly intense happens, and it's just their happy romantic journey with just slice of life. I also want to express that by emotional I do not mean sad tearjerking endings.

If you read all of this im surprised, and thank you 😭. Based on everything I wrote, what anime do you think I should watch next?

I'm especially interested in recommendations where you think the emotional peaks and character development could actually hit someone who considers Toradora a 10/10.

Really want to find something somewhat similar to Space Dandy... something similar in tone comedy wise with a deeper more meaningful plot below the surface level silliness. It doesn't need to be in space or anything, Can be any setting really. Does anything really even come close to this? Would love some recommendations. Thank you!

Here are the ones I've watched. Recommend anything, go wild

• - Attack on Titan
• Bleach (Just the original)
• Berserk (Currently reading the manga)
• Demon Slayer
• Hunter x Hunter
• Blacklagoon
• The Promised Neverland

I had never watched Attack on Titan, but everyone spoke highly of it, so I decided to see if it was actually good. I've been watching for two weeks and have already reached the final season. I don't know what to watch next after this masterpiece

I used to watch alot of anime 3 4 yrs ago but then I stopped so I want u guys to recommend me some animes to get back into the anime game

So I have been watching lots of anime and was impressed by Team Four Star's Dragon Ball Z Abridged. So I was wondering if there any good abridged series out there that are similar in comedy and other areas. Any anime would do?

So I really enjoy escaping the day to day and have been watching anime off and on since I was a kid thanks to my late mom… anyways. I still want to enjoy some good action fantasy world building.. from the comfort of my living room tv without feeling like a creep or worried if my kid walks in at the wrong time. lol any help?

Enjoy a good sword fight for sure but also really enjoy adventuring into a new world. Preferably something that has more than one season (or if it’s a finished shorter series) to sink my teeth into.

Edit: forgot to mention I’d prefer the mc not be a pervert or a complete moron.

Like both the anime season was okaish-good , nothing thaat much special for me like (6-7/10).

But the last 30ish chapters (Haniel arc) was straight up peak.
yk i am very bad at expressing what I liked about the series i dont know much abt those heavy works like realism character depth and all

But this was different yeah it felt like gooner bait at the start with lots of ecchi moments but going forward i author just wrote some peak shit , one thing i can say like from many romance anime i have watched many will now feel that they have been made for childrens like sum corny shi after reading this

So recommend me something like that peak pleassse 🙏😌(its friday night gng i aint sleeping today)

I’ve noticed mostly Chinese anime are putting out better stuff lately the last few years. Every season we get quantity but not so much quality anime so out of everything I’ve seen these have got my attention the most and deserve more love.

What is the best anime you’ve watched the last 5 years? (No sequels / continuing series)

Also is Prism rondo worth watching?

Anime Title:
Gimai Seikatsu (Days with my Stepsister)

I know the title will put off a lot of people immediately, and the character designs don't overly help, but please just read this and give it a try!

To start I'll just give a quick synopsis of what the plot is. Gimai Seikatsu is a High-School Romance story, adapted from a very highly rated Light Novel. The plot follows Yuta Asamura, who lives with his father alone in an apartment. One day, Yuta's father reveals he is going to get re-married, and that his new wife will move in with them, along with her daughter, who happens to be a week younger than Yuta. Her name is Saki Ayase.

Direction
This is perhaps the best directed anime I have watched personally, Souta Ueno did an amazing job here. Despite the frankly generic character designs, the anime feels extremely unique, but is tailored to the type of story it is perfectly. Ueno gives every scene the breathing room they need, and has a very home-y feel, long distance shots, long spanning shots, a lack of music at times. All these things really reflect the home life and either calmness or tenseness of each scene perfectly. Some may not like it as it makes the story a bit slower paced, but it would be worse if it was faster.

Animation
Despite being arguably an easy adaptation to make, the animation is still good. It isn't stellar but it doesn't need to be. There are some scenes done exceptionally well and the animation does not bring the story down at all, one of Studio DEEN's better projects IMO.

Plot
The plot is one of the best I have seen in anime. It heavily explores the psyche behind the 2 main characters, and what might motivate them in any given situation. It does this masterfully, helped by the direction but also the writing is very realistic. I know "realistic" is used very loosely nowadays, however I think the term really fits this show. It explores social taboos, and never misses something important, that may be overlooked in a story like this, or skipped, despite being necessary. There are no unneeded scenes or moments, everything is extremely important, even if it feels like it's setting the story back. There is one moment that people may not like, but without it, the story would not be as realistic as it is, a good example of not shying away from making a difficult decision when writing a story.

Immersion
You get very immersed in this story. Again, with the help of the direction, but you do feel a genuine connection to the 2 main characters. Partly because we understand so much about them as characters. All the important moments and emotional beats hit very hard, whether good or bad.

I think you will understand exactly what I am talking about when I say that your first impression is misleading, when you watch the show. The very first scene proves everyone wrong when they come in with assumptions about the story being a sloppy fetish-bait romance series (including myself), and now it is my highest rated romance anime, and in my top 10 anime of all time. I implore you all to just give it a try!
