Godsmen wrote: @giraffeswillrule Thanks for that list I have looked a few and there are some good ones in there. I am going to start one piece first then go into Baccano and see if I like it. Thank you for your input - I also didnt know that was call shonen. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle Glad to help! Baccano is my personal favorite anime, so I hope you like it. And One Piece is my favorite out of the Big 3.REQUEST I'm looking for an anime that has the same sort of setting as Black Butler. Not necessarily all the supernatural stuff (but that stuff is fine, too), but something set in England during the Victorian age (I think it's Victorian). Also, has anyone seen Emma and is it any good? Thanks! Also, if you happen to know if it i on crunchyroll or hulu that would be great. |

Ok so i already blown through the anime i was recommended awhile ago and i need more recommendations.
:) What i liked: Angel Beats! Shugo Chara Fate/Zero Madoka Magica SAO Lucky Star Milky Holmes Vampire Knight FMA Im trying to find stuff that is actually on this site, to save the trouble of me hunting it down anyways. I guess what i'm mainly looking for are shows like Shugo Chara where there are a lot of like, comedic relief i guess you would say. But i do like the more serious shows (like Fate/zero and Madoka.) (BTW what what type of Genre does Madoka Magica Fall under?) Sorry getting sidetracked. Anyways so recommend away |

Based on those, I would say definitely go for chihayafuru, the first few episodes arent that great (deals with past events when the main characters were kids) but get through them and its an absolute gem, is also on here. Maybe worth giving bakuman or usagi drop a go, I think they are on here but licensing bullshit means I cant get it in the UK. I guess clannad and bamboo blade kinda go with Angel beats (If you dont cry during clannad (specifically after story) you have no heart, bamboo blade is alot more... silly) Godsmen wrote: I am looking for something like Bleach, Sword Art Online, or even Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple. Some of my favorite anime: Initial D Bleach SAO Kenichi Berserk Claymore Trigun Samurai X I will take any recommendation but those ones and Naruto my brother ruined that one for me. So shounen basically, Hunter x Hunter is the grandaddy of them and is still the best one out there in my view. Worth giving Kenshin a go, but I dont think its as good as Samurai X. Maybe even worth giving X/1999 a go, its old but I loved it and its really not very well known out there. |

I am a really new Anime watcher. I've only watched about 4 shows so far, and my favorite two are Sword Art Online and Pet Girl of Sakurasou. Art style is kinda important to me, so it would be nice if someone can recommend romantic comedies that have a similar art style to those two.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting to get a reply so quickly, let alone a full list .Well, I'm glad I was able to help. Hopefully this isn't too much, but I remembered some light-hearted anime. I don't know what laid-back, light-hearted comedies mean to you, so some of these anime may not exactly fit... I'll exclude any ecchi heavy anime though! 1) Azumanga Daioh Pani Poni Dash!! The Best Student Council Bamboo Blade--This isn't a "comedy-comedy" but more of a slice of life/ coming of age anime about kendo....with comedy in it. Shin Chan--This is sort of like South Park--i.e. About a group of kids (kindergardeners?) with lots of adult jokes and references. The dub is actually a gag dub. Ouran High School Host Club--Many caterogize this as a romantic-comedy, but I think that for something to be a romantic-comedy it actually needs romance in it. School Rumble--THIS is a romantic comedy! FLCL--This isn't so much laid-back as just weird, but awesome. Full Metal Panic! (Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu is the more comedic of the series) My Ordinary Life Yotsuba& Super GALS! GTO--Has some ecchi in it, but not much. It's a more "mature" anime. Oh, and for 3 you should add: Serial Experiments Lain, Ergo Proxy, and Night Head Genesis. These aren't super-violence either, but are character-driven, and I guess depressing. They're all sci-fi anime. Sci-fi anime tend to be depressing and heavily character-driven. Alright, cool! Thanks, dude. Those all sound great, much obliged. I'm gonna watch through those as soon as I can. God bless, good buddy...(Hmm, I think I might be sounding a little too overzealous ...Oh, well). |

I highly recommend The World God Only Knows and Toradora - Both on crunchyroll I am a really new Anime watcher. I've only watched about 4 shows so far, and my favorite two are Sword Art Online and Pet Girl of Sakurasou. Art style is kinda important to me, so it would be nice if someone can recommend romantic comedies that have a similar art style to those two. |

Indeed then.

I'm in the mood for something action packed, but with some sort of substance inside it other than just violence and blood. I'm open to movies, OVA's and series.
Ex: Trigun, Black Lagoon, Code Geass, Darker than Black, Mobile Suit Gundam00, Fate/Zero, Hellsing, Ghost in the Shell, Baccano, Evangelion, Monster, Akira, Berserk, Fist of the North Star. Also, I'm not one for Shonen Action, so unless the one you are recommending doesn't follow the usual shonen formula, please don't say any. (In other words, no: Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Inuyasha, Deadman Wonderland, ect.) |

(In other words, no: Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Inuyasha, Deadman Wonderland, ect.) Redline (watch it on DVD/Bluray or not at all, trust me) Samurai X (These are rurouni kenshin OVAs so sometimes called OVA and sometimes samurai x) X/1999 (Series not movie) Samurai Champloo (watch dubbed) Cowboy bebop (watch dubbed) |

I would also say check out Chihayafuru on here, its not specifically romance (theres an overall plot of it) but more a just generally fun slice of life/coming of age anime with an absolutely beautiful artstyle. |

Hi, if anyone from Crunchyroll is reading this: please get the rights to show Detective Conan in the US. Funimation or someone less has stopped the fansub group which used to freely subbed the episodes. I think it's greedy from them as Detective Conan was cancelled in the US ages ago. Funimation only aired the first 123 episodes of Detective Conan (which they spanned over 130 episodes, according to Wikipedia), and then canceled the show.
I agree that Funimation should have control over these first 123 episodes. But Detective Conan is still going strong in Japan. At the time of this post, 683 episodes in total have been aired in Japan. So, why punish the fans by preventing them from seeing the 500+ eps not aired by Funimation? |

Hello,
I'm completely new to the anime scene and over the last week I've managed to knock off 3 series and one movie. Needless to say I absolutely loved all of them, so now I'm on the hunt for more series/movies that have similar feel to the ones I've watched. However, I think I've kinda set my bar too high as I ended up doing a little bit of research beforehand and those said titles I watched were some of the most critically acclaimed anime. I'll list the titles I've watched below, but I'm pretty sure ( ) I like the "slice of life" types of animes with preferably strong visuals and characterization. I'm not too sure on the visual point though... I'm told the previous titles I've watched were industry leaders in art style compared to most anime, so I've probably been spoilt by watching them first. I should also note that I don't like fantasy (e.g. elf ears) anime unless there's a logical reason as to why they exist in the real world (SWO for example) in the first place. Watched: Chihayafuru Hanasaku Iroha Sword Art Online Grave of the Fireflies As I've said before, I adored those titles. Although I have to say that I found it rather hard to watch the second part/season of Sword Art Online as it screamed that the creators were simply trying to prolong the story due to the shows population. It felt extremely cheesy (yeah, I know it was a rather cheesy show in the first place) and much of the tension disappeared. Still - I hope that somebody can recommend me some anime titles that will leave me with the same thought of wonder that Chihayafuru, Hanasaku Iroha and the first 14 episodes of SWO did upon their conclusion. |

I suggest you try GOSICK on CR and "Honey & Clover" on Hulu. |
