    Can't really think of a better title for the thread but fuck it, share some animes you enjoy watching. It can be old ass shit that's obscure as fuck, edgy shit from the 90's that left pissed off parents who thought they were buying a cartoon for kids and not some animated porno, or 2000's and after shit that ranges from not bad to pure shit like isekais or moe crap.

    Also some to share because I may as well just show some I've been seeing since last year with the lockdown.


    Three guys in the future play cops in each of their episodes with exploding collars before it was considered cool.


    Teenager in metrosexual/homoerotic armor fights bad guys with the help of 90's furry bait in homoerotic armor.


    An episode from an anime with a GOAT dub that made it better than the original (which was shit in its home country.) Still wondering how A-Log would think of making an OC based off one of the characters from this.


    An anime I managed to know of thanks to lolcows such as Chris and A-Log as well as @Fauna Fox using a character from it as an avatar.


    Clip from the only good Isekai with no context beyond masked wrestler that loves animals scaring a furry.

    Like I said on KF, Azumanga Daioh doesn't seem that old to me because the '10s were a blur.

    But I hear it being called the "ancestor of slice of life" or the like.

    How old it really is: if this were 2001, Azumanga Daioh would be from 1979-1982.

    wow I feel old now lol

    (also I haven't really seen the anime)

    The only good anime out there in all honesty is this one obscure anime. Just look at that animation.

    To me, anime is like live action films - another medium of storytelling.

    And just like with film, there can be good ones and crap ones.

    Also I think it doesn't always have to be from Japan.

    Funnily enough, the guy that uploaded that video made a video on what makes an anime an anime. Granted, anime itself may as well just make Japan come to mind when it comes to cartoons but then again, it's cartoons. Fuck it, we need people to give us anime from other countries such as this:

    Dragonball Super was well... Dragonball. It is what it is. Largely watched it for nostalgia. Tournament of Power arc had some great moments in it, even if I did start skipping all of Zen-Oh's dialogue. Hint: All powerful characters that look, act and sound like children are annoying and done to death.

    Otherwise the last one I watched was Black Lagoon. Made by very mature people:

    Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex is one of my favorite series. The first season is especially great with the Laughing Man.

    My favorite anime film of all time is Paprika. I associate it with a buddy of mine who passed away but he saw the film a little before he passed. I feel like I need to watch it again.

    In Japan, He-Man is called an anime.

    (as is all animation from anywhere)

    P4G isn't as worth it because it's just P4 with extra bits. The original Persona 4 Anime is much better, imo.

    P5 anime isn't terrible, but compared to P4's anime, it misses a lot. P4 kinda plays with a goofier side of things that happen, and it's a fun watch. Def recommend it.

    I haven't played any other Persona game besides P5/P5R. I have P4G on Steam but I haven't played it yet. My backlog is huge and daunting.

    In "I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level", it looks like she's sent to a world around a galactic center.

    Looking forward to the third and final Season of Mob Psycho 100. I just hope that after they're done with adapting the main story of the Manga, that they eventually also adapt the spin-off manga series starring Reigen, it has enough content for a small-ish season of its own.
