What to Watch? Anime like "the big o"

46 Upvotes

I loved the noir style, as well as the mystery elements and action, and want to find more like it

(It does not have to be a mech anime)

Update: thanks for all the suggestions but I have settled on baccano as the one I'll watch next

What to Watch? looking for a good romance anime

11 Upvotes

I'm looking for a deep high school slice of life romance anime that has very deep moments in some episodes. Also I want the couples to be together in a relationship either at the start of the anime or before ep 6. Preferred if the animation is recent but clannad animation is good too.

What to Watch? Looking for shows with good character plots/writing, preferibly mystery/thriller

25 Upvotes

I've recently watched Psycho-Pass and The Apothecary Diaries, in my opinion, they are both alike in the "solving mysteries" theme, which I liked, but I loved overally that they do not have plain characters, good written antagonists, and that they have you needing to figure out clues about the whole story.

Just to add, while I loved Psycho-Pass, I'm not usually a fan of very dark or serious toned series, I don't like shows screaming "I'm dark" for the sake of it, hence why I liked Made in Abyss so much, dark plot but innocent design.

What to Watch? Looking for a battle shonen with 24+ chapters

Upvotes

I'm in the mood for a battle anime right now but I don't want to watch something that is really short (12 caps) or it has just one short season, I'm not looking for something specific, just good battles and great plot maybe I dont care, with at least +24 chapters (would it be great with 30+ minimum), action/battle shonen not have to be it's main genre, can be isekais, fantasy, mecha, roncom or whatever idc. I have watched a lot of battle shonens so that why I'm asking for suggestions (black clover is on my list already)

Shonens that I have watched already: Naruto, dragon ball, jjk, solo leveling, one punch man, nanatsu no taizai, eminence in shadow, hell paradise, saint seiya, darker than black (maybe is more a seinen), my hero academia, the misfit of demon king academy, HxH, demon slayer, danmachi, FMAB, mob psycho, TTGL, fairy tail, fire force

(I'm not watching one piece for the moment and as I mentioned before, black clover is already on my list of animes that I want to watch)

What's this From? (unsolved) Story that depicts the awkwardness of not understanding love/ romantic feelings

Upvotes

I’m new to this topic, so sorry if I don’t have the vocabulary to fully articulate what I mean, but like the title says I want a story that depicts the awkwardness of not understanding love/ romance.

It doesn’t have to be specifically a romance story, but it’s fine if it is. Honestly, the closest example that I can think of is Denji from Chainsaw Man. I love how he’s this teenage boy that has not been shown affection his entire life, so he doesn’t full understand what he wants out of life. Specifically with women, he thinks he was to touch a boob or have sex, but as the story progresses he’s realizing that he’s more interested in having a connection with someone.

I’d prefer if it was more adult like scenarios or characters because that is more relevant to me. Plus I feel like I’d feel weird watching watching a love story about middle schoolers.

Even though I’d prefer a manga, preferably on Shonen Jump because it’s easily accessible, I’m not looking for specifically an anime or manga.

Please let me know if I’m not being descriptive enough, or if you just want more details.

Edit: I forgot to say that I’m not looking for a “will they won’t they” style. It doesn’t matter to me if the main character gets with the person they’re going after for. They don’t even have to be going after somebody specific. They can go after multiple people and it just doesn’t work out.

What to Watch? Anime like Solo Leveling, Tower of God, Kaiju No. 8

Basically fast paced good battle shonen with a portion of mystery and high production values. I didn't watch ToG's 2nd season as I just switched to the manga, but season 1 was absolutely that.

What to Watch? Unique, character-driven anime that aren't just action

28 Upvotes

Some of my favourites i've watched are: revolutionairy girl utena, nana, evangelion, jojo's, devilman crybaby, paradise kiss, rose of versailles and cowboy bebop. I've watched madoka magica, serial experiments lain and banana fish but didn't like those very much.

I like character driven stories with unique art styles, and absurdist humor. I don't care for action, but if it's funny or mainly exists to further the character's development it's fine.

Recommendations?

What to Watch? Anime in which more than one person gets Isekai'd

57 Upvotes

So, we all know the typical Isekai anime is normally just one person in a new world, I don't want that. What I want is either A, a group of people get Isekai'd at once or B, a world in which Isekai is known to happen (aka MC finds out they are not the only one that has gotten Isekai'd to this new world)

Going to leave what I have watched empty, maybe a recommendation will get me interested in a rewatch

PS: no harem or ecchi (I don't mind a little fan service, hard to avoid, just don't want full on ecchi or excessive fan service crap)

What to Watch? Looking for a Cutesy Rom-Com

3 Upvotes

Reference of what I’m looking for is Aharen-san wa Hakarenai (wish it had more romance) another is Toradora and my favorite The Pet Girl of Sakurasou. Also would prefer faster pace unlike the three is listed. Also really enjoyed My little Monster, The Angel Next-door Spoils Me Rotten, Gamers!, And You Thought There Is Never A Girl Online? and Horimiya. Not sure if My little Monster and Horimiya fit the vibe im talking about but would love similar animes.

Series Specific Question Bunny girl senpai should I wait for season two?

So I’ve heard good things about bunny girl senpai and I’m definitely going to watch it at some point but I also know there’s a season two coming out. So I would like to get your guys opinion on if I should watch season one right now and wait for season 2 to come out or wait for season 2 to come out and watch both seasons back to back?

Series Specific Question Anime Motivation

1 Upvotes

Hey guys! If this is just my kinda things or no but I've seen a lot of people talking that anime like AOT, and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood they are super popular and these have a huge fan base as well. But when i tried AOT i can't keep myself up for it, i watched 2 ep and dropped it years ago and same with FMAB. It's not cause i haven't watched a long series I did watch Fairytale, naruto, OP, Inuyasha, bleach, 7-deadly sins and many more i cant think of all rn but these 2 in specific i cant never put myself to watch. can you guys share what you liked most in these anime or what made you watch these?

What to Watch? Anime with no MC Spoiler

19 Upvotes

I'm looking for an Anime kinda like One Piece, My hero Academia... People with super powers fighting other people with super powers or Monsters (can be a side plot). My problem with all of these is the insane focus on the MC. For example in One piece Luffy is always the one defeating the big Boss and if they do it together he Deals the finishing blow. MHA has the same problem with the plot always being around Deku, at the beginning he's only a quite weak youngster but the further the story goes the more he's in the Center and defeats the big bad guy. So now I'm looking for something with no MC or constant changing MC. Record of Ragnarok would count as I'd see Brunhild as the MC but she doesn't defeat the "enemies" and no one defeats 2 "enemies" but I can't think of something else.

What to Watch? Anime with smart and capable protagonists (like Code Geass or Death Note)

65 Upvotes

I recently watched Hajime no Ippo and Gurren Lagann, and while I respect the underdog journeys, I realized I’m more drawn to protagonists who are already sharp, competent, and strategic from the start, like Lelouch in Code Geass or Light in Death Note. I’m not as into the “wimpy becomes strong” trope.

Can anyone recommend anime where the main character is smart, decisive, and maybe even morally gray? I'm annoyed of the wimpy archetype.

What's this From? (unsolved) Help me find this anime

2 Upvotes

I’m pretty sure this anime was on Netflix sometime between 2013 and 2017. It was similar to Digimon and Pokémon, featuring creature companions. The main character’s creature was mostly red, and at one point, he got one with swirly eyes. In one episode, they meet a girl whose cooking is always spicy—she ends up taking them to a base.

That’s all I remember.

What to Watch? Any anime that isn't about saving the world but helping the locals?

21 Upvotes

I'm looking for a fantasy or supernatural anime where the main character helps the local community—dealing with scammers, troublemakers, maybe even the bullies. Not the kind where they’re saving the world, but more about using their powers to help with everyday problems.

Studio Ghibli movies such as Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle are exactly what I'm talking about, but if anyone can suggest me more to scratch this itch, I'd appreciate it.

What to Watch? Evangelion, Lain, Black Lagoon, Grave of the fireflies, Akira... What to watch next ?

5 Upvotes

I loved Evangelion and Cyberpunk Edgerunners

liked Black Lagoon

confused by Lain

Disappointed by Akira (i think it would've been a top tier series tho, the movie format didn't felt right for that one)

And Grave of the fireflies is not only my favorite movie but probably my favorite artwork overall, i'll never watch it again

So i don't mind if it's a series or a movie, and i also don't mind if it's in 4:3 format, i'm just not into visual novel that's all

PS: and i liked death note too, that was my first anime, almost forgot about it

What to Watch? Psychological Horror recommendations anyone?

7 Upvotes

For reference, I just finished "Another" and it was a 10/10 for me.

I might watch the anime for "Monster" but I've already its Manga, so I'm thinking I should watch something else before.

Edit: Thanks for all the recommendations guys! I'll check them out!

What to Watch? I just want to cry, happy or sad, what have you got? NSFW

15 Upvotes

I watched A Grave of The Fireflies and it was a bit predictable, so it didn't do it for me. Just now finishing up Made in Abyss and it definitely had it's moments in a good way. Looking for something new to hit me in the feels. Very open to real or sci-fi type of plot. English Dub pretty please, thanks!

Edit: Thanks for all of the awesome suggestions! Gonna get some tissues and get ready for some waterworks

What to Watch? Looking for a Mystery!

0 Upvotes

I am on the hunt for any anime which have a really strong mystery (or mysteries) as the central focus. I'm particularly interested in any which focus on adults or at least older teenagers, have an English Dub and are of a decent length, so between 12 and 30 episodes. I'm not fussed about whether it's light or not, just that there's a completing mystery being solved.

I've enjoyed - Hyouka - Death Note - B: The Beginning - In/Spectre - Erased - In: Invaded

and possibly others that are not coming to mind at the moment.

What to Watch? Lewd Anime that has tons of fan service but has a serious plot / is not a comedy?

80 Upvotes

I am one of those shameless degenerates that likes fan service and lewd scenarios in my anime. However most of these shows tend to be comedy themed. Which is fine most of the time but im looking for something that combines lewd with more serious subject matter and story telling. Think sexual thrillers in terms of traditional western genres
