I am just here to shill for Delicious in Dungeon. It’s a dungeon based anime that isn’t an isekai! Shocking, I know. The characters are really charming, there’s good world building, and while the plot is a slow burn, it’s super compelling. Also the adaptation is being done by Studio Trigger. Why are you still reading this, go watch Delicious in Dungeon!

Yeah! It's so fun :) I love how the guy just wants to eat monsters more than anything hahaha

Laios’s reactions are so adorable! The man clearly loves monsters with all of his heart and watching him geek out is delightful.

Seeing ProdZD as Senshi is so cool. I remember seeing his videos on Tumblr and saying to myself, "This dude is going places." And now here he is, in places, getting weird about eating monsters.

Steins Gate is pretty good but I hate how they wrote Ruka, I literally can't watch it because of that character and the plot literally revolving about invalidating their identity

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

Oh yes, that annoyed me too. I hate how much it was pushed in your face and she had like no chances to be happy

That and nichijou are best ever

Second this. Just a mellow show.

pluto ! I loved the manga and randomly found out that it got an anime adaptation last year. beautiful intense sci fi about sentient robots

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Seconded, best astro boy remake to date

I've just finished watching Odd Taxi. Very enjoyable story about a walrus taxi driver who is dragged into shady busines.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Second this too, one of the most underrated hidden gems in the recent time

Also listen to the show’s OST too, the entire album is filled with fine bangers

Angel beats sent me into a depressive spiral and emotional crash, very good, highly recommend

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

You should be in sales lmao

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I felt a little let down when I saw Angel Beats, to be honest. I really enjoyed the ending, and a few plot points here and there, but it felt like they had too much content for a 1-cour show and not enough for a 2-cour, so it ended up feeling a bit rushed, jerking between comedy and tragedy.

Though I think my issue was expecting it to live up to the heights set by Clannad, the eternal final boss of cry-porn. Clannad drained me in a way I didn't think was possible, and rewatches of key scenes STILL destroy me years later. I can't go near wheat fields anymore. 11/10, would have multiple breakdowns while contemplating the value of family, again.

How does the anime adaptation compared to the original game? Should I watch it or play it out?

EDIT: Just found out that the Angel Beats anime came first before the game, so this question should be the other way around but… at this point this original question have become moot, so ignore it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Ngl, had no idea it was a game. Just watched it and loved it and completely broke apart

Diary of an Appthecary is a real delight

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

To Your Eternity, probably not everyone's cup of tea but I've seen very few anime like it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Solid anime, gave it some attention when it was coming out but didn't keep up with it. Definitely gonna give it a second try

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

The anime arc is amazing. The manga continues being amazing for some time before turning... Weird, but interesting. Still recommended.

I read "gay" as "goy" at first and was really confused for a minute why you specifically didn't want Jewish opinions on anime.. 😂😂

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Mmm, fried guinea pig...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

RE: Creators. It's an anime with god-tier audio design about anime and the real world colliding, with "creations" coming to meet their "creators".

If you like fighting but Jojo's art style isn't your cup then I can recommend Record of Ragnarok and Kengan Ashura. Outside of fighting PLUTO was really good.

what about gay anime to watch? even better if its good

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

A good gay anime-while-not-being-anime to watch, is Killing Eve.

By the writer of Fleabag (and ❤️♥️ Crashing 💟🥰)

Realistic Sherlock Holmes♀️ and absolute icon Eve Polastri, and world class psychopath assassin-for-hire Villanelle, are so in sync that they're flirting through murder scenes, never having seen each other.

It's an absolute joy, being a little bit surreal around the edges, and very anime-like in execution.

Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!

Cute show about a 30 year old virgin slowly realizing he's totally gay with the help of a male co-worker that has a crush on him. Also he can read peoples minds by touching them.

I'm actually not watching this one, because I can't relate to the cuteness or gayness, but maybe you can presumably gay person in my monitor. (╭☞´ิ∀´ิ)╭☞

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

does not compute.

Is that one of these sentences, that are grammatically correct, but semantically nonsense? like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorless_green_ideas_sleep_furiously

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Green ideas, which have hitherto lost their colour, are trying their best to fall asleep.

Just binged Skip to Loafer a couple of weeks ago, I'm still thinking about it now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

I really liked 91 Days. It's a crime drama set during the prohibition era and i rarely see it mentioned anywhere.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Started rewatching Michiko to Hatchin (check that spelling) is good. Also, Garden of Words is good too. I've just had my fill of isekai crap so i'm going back to the 2010s.

My Boss is Goofy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Ive been watching and enjoying Bucchigiri a lot. Its a Mappa original and its been very fun and colorful.

Ive also been watching Brave Bang Bravern. Its an over the top mech anime with a gay romance.

Oh and Mashel is also awesome if you want something that has more eps out to watch.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Legend of the Galactic Heroes (the original series, i don't know if the newer one is good or not yet,) Planetes, Mushi-Shi, Monster

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago
  • Jujutsu Kaisen
  • Demon Slayer
  • Black Clover (can be a bit wearing as it gets repetitive - fight - scream - fight - scream)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I'm impatiently watching Solo Leveling. Haven't read the manhwa on purpose, just so I don't get spoilers, but the comments I've read have me hopeful.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Currently enjoying classroom of the elite. It's certainly not perfect but it keeps me entertained
