Do you ever watch shitty/obscure/forgotten anime just for the hell of it?


I haven't kept up with anime trends in a long time, last thing I really remember was when K-on and PAnty stocking were all the rage

All the time.
Currently watching a show called
Those who hunt for elves.
The first season was abysmal but the second one has gotten the hang of the jokes, tone, and animation/budget limitations.

Me and most of my household loved how silly that show was. Mom hated it and thought it was incomprehensibly dumb though (she wasn't wrong). Didn't even care that most of the jokes were Japaneses puns that didn't translate at all. The whole thing was absurd and the nonsensical puns that didn't translate just added to the charm.


The promised neverland was pretty good.


How modern is modern? Hunter x Hunter was made in 2011 or so, also JJBA is still airing. There's also mushishi and monster for more toned down stuff.


LOL weebhurt.


I remember being a big fan of Ranma when I was young, that series used to be pretty big in my country, to the point that they even sold stuff like coloring books of it.
Its a pretty fun series, but drags on at times, specially when they focus on Happosai who is really annoying.


Any wizzie who haven't seen this should. Definitely has some interesting philosophical content and a very atmospheric and oddly comforting world imo. I'm sure many other wizards would find a barren, gray waste devoid of people as comforting at least.
Basically a cyberpunk world in which the remnant of humanity inhabit various "domes" spread across the wastes, and they are guarded over by divine seeming creatures known as "proxies".
Don't wanna say too much and spoil.

you a dead man


Someone tell me if "EP is awesome" is just a meme to make shitposts, or someone actually likes this retarded crap.


You need a high IQ to enjoy it. If you can't notice all the philosophical themes in it's wasted on you.


I really disliked the pacing of the show. It really killed my enjoyment of it. Which is a real shame since it touched on very intresting ideas and had a great style. The pices were all there for a great, thought provoking show, but it just wasn't executed well.
It is a show that I avoid rewatching because honestly the vast majority of run time for most eps are boring, with the strong feeling that they are stalling to spread the story out much longer then needed to fit a certain number of eps and hit runtime goals without enough content in the script.
It has the same problem Witch Hunter Robin has.
Good style, interesting premise, brings up interesting ideas, but because of shitty pacing and story structure as a whole the show is more boring then not.


it should have been cut to 13 episodes

Satou would about 37 if we base it around the time the original Welcome to the NHK book was published. If they made another book or series that revisited his life in the present day what do you think it would be about?

So you're not a failure?,what the fuck are you doing here then chad? You shouldn't be getting sum pussy out there?


Fuck this stupid wish-fulfillment series.


This is correct. Think if you've read the novel you're more likely to read the flashback in the anime as clearly the time they did it in the club room.

It's kinda funny but a "real" Satou isn't an incel and would actually be up for banning here.

To answer your question though it heavily depends on who "they" are. The last update in the NHK novel was the author relapsed back into the hikki life and is living off the royalties so wouldn't be surprised if he wrote a much more depressing sequel. At the other end if the Jap gov has any hand in it the sequel would be about how he gets his shit together by joining the salaryman rank-and-file and procreating. Pull himself up by his bootstraps, "hard work", accepting society's values like a good drone and all the other stuff that is willed by the state.


I've only ever seen the anime. Should I read the novel? I know the anime is a lot lighter but if the same stuff happens I probably wont bother


if you're a fan and want the source material, yes

I want to watch more anime that is focused on nature scenery. I really enjoyed Yuru camp, but I felt the last few episodes were too focused on high school slice of life crap. I want to see more anime like Non Non Biyori, or if there is a series out there about a guy that lives off grid that would perfect. Thank you in advance.

Hakumei to Mikochin
Mokke(more in the spirit of nature than actual nature scenes from what I've seen so far, though the first episode has a lot of nature in it)
Nastume Yujinchou


Studio Ghilbi has a lot of nature themes especially Mononoke Hime.


Yama no Susume


Mokke has a fair deal of beautiful nature visuals, but thematically it is an exploration of mental illness on a background of japanese folklore. So I think it might be an off-the-mark recommendation for this thread since OP noted Non Non Biyori as an example of what he wants, though it is an excellent show.

I always fantasized about going to Japan and Hong Kong but beeing a poorfag I can obviously not afford it. Do any of you know some good tourism simulations (can be either video games or documentary movies)?

Here is a list of things I already watched/played:
>yakuza series of video games
>sleeping dogs
>various HK movies from the 80s - 10s
>doc about the suicide forest in japan
>doc about homeless people in japan
>doc about tokyo beeing destroyed and rebuild 2 times in a few decades

What I sometimes also do is just use Google street view and browse around. ARTE is a good tv station for doc movies (those of you in yurop might know this german/french coop station).

ok I tried Persona5 and it works fairly nice even though its only tiny parts of city but compacted With nice OST it works well and I sometimes just run around streets

Read that as AKIBA STRIP… going around stealing panties off females going pass.


Uh, that's exactly what the game is. Like the name is intentional.


I was about to say, yes, that is actually the game.


I hate Persona games wish SMT had the popularity instead

What's a good place to start this show and when's a good spot to stop watching it?


I just realized that one of the things I like the most about One Piece is that it has virtually no romance. No bullshit like in Naruto or Bleach, its pure adventure.


Arrr… that's the way more anime should be.

Watch it all in the order of its release…


watch the anime until the end of water 7 also skip filler episodes
go read the manga after that if you liked it

after water 7 there's just too many characters and the author doesn't know what to do with all of them and the story becomes much worse and boring imho


I have so much nostalgia for that 90s anime aesthetic like in the OP image. I remember watching One Piece when I was a teenager and feeling frisson during the fight scenes. I'm pretty sure I stopped watching it after the Enies Lobby Arc, because I thought it was getting too childish and cringy, to be honest. I'd recommend stopping at around that point.

I can't recall a better anime adaption of a videogame. It had all the characters, tracks, original character relationships, and then added a bunch more on top. The actual game adaption of the anime was really good too.

Guts wasn't, but Griffith was, he had a lot of feeling to Guts, that's why he get so buttmad when Guts left.


So gay that he had to rape Casca?


If you seriously couldn't interpret what that scene meant then I think you might be mentally handicapped


Gays don't rape succubi.


Mob Psycho has such a bland, soulless art style. Same with OPM.

Liru is the one true miracle of the universe


So what was with that series? Was it OC? Based on manga? It was so odd.
