I really enjoyed watching Hyouka. Although it was really bashed by my friends due to it's 'pretentiousness' of being another moeblob and the 'lack of any complex writing or plot device whatsoever', I find it to be a great anime and have no regrets spending hours on end watching each and every episode thoroughly (trying to prove my friends wrong)
Other than that, I also enjoyed Medaka Box and Psycho-. Sadly, both titles are also hated by my friends

I'm sure you already watched this as it's still airing on this season I still mention it anyway, try Magi, it's a good fantasy anime with some adventure mixed in. You can also try Ixion Saga DT but that one don't really have any plot so far (more like a gag anime).Hanyuu wrote: q6a2e

Other than that, maybe try Katanagatari, Tower of Druaga, Brave Soul (this ones a movie), and maybe Kyousogiga too (I don't know about this as I only watched the ova & and it still airing too)
I liked hyouka too.H_Hitachiin wrote: 2v2x3q
Elfen Lied <3
Also Utawarerumono was one of the best animes (I'm really into kemonomimi stuff) I have watched recently.
Best anime I have seen.. well nothing didn't pop up instantly so I guess I don't have one.
I would suggest watching JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (2012 edition, currently airing) for everyone
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure 2012 has to be the most manga faithful anime to date. No filler. No BS. All badass.

Joshiraku, still plugging it to this day.
Also, I'm currently watching paranoia agent and im loving it! are there are other paranormal / haunted, scary anime's you can recommend?
Paranoia Agent isn't supernatural horror. Finish it up and you'll know what I mean, but...(thematic spoilers that kinda spoil the rest of the show if you're not done) the supernatural horror idea is a red herring to lure viewers in, really. In reality it is a gigantic metaphor for the variety of effects that paranoia has on the psyche, how it is horrible for the mind yet absolutely necessary to maintain relative sanity, as everyone gets paranoid on ocassion.
For supernatural horror, you've got slim pickings for actual quality. Mostly Hell Girl, maybe Ghost Hunt. If you're interested in supernatural imagery interspersed in a psychological horror series, I'd recommend Ghost Hound, Paprika, or Perfect Blue. From this current season, for an eerie, slow, visually strange outing, I'd recommend Shin Sekai Yori.
Hell, really, I mentioned Perfect Blue and Paprika just now, but do yourself a favor and watch all of Satoshi Kon's work.

Anything from Hayao Miyazaki honestly. You've most likely already seen Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and Totoro but try some of the lesser known stuff too like Howl's Moving Castle or Porco Rosso.mathexpert9981 wrote: r6v14

Both of these are a stretch, but Toaru Majutsu no Index and Infinite Stratos are kinda similar. Both are much more light hearted, but Index has the fighting mixed with ecchi scenes and Infinite Stratos has girls with abilities most guys don't have. Index currently has two 24 episode seasons and a movie (not out on BD yet) while Infinite Stratos has one 12 episode season and an OVA.DX5536 wrote: 2t1g3y
Do you guys know animes similar to Freezing/Sekirei or One Kagayaku Kisetsu E ?
If there is Ecchi, then please a bit fighting too. Not too long or short, 24-26 episodes or 2 Seasons.
Thx
I am back, looking for more anime suggestions! =D

There's a link what I've watched.
-Action, with some form of love story on the side.
-Mecha works for me sometimes, as I loved Gundam 00 and Gundam SEED Destiny. Macross Frontier wasn't bad either.
-HD would be nice, but not necessary.
-Not buttloads of blood (Blood+ was probably pushing it a bit for me).
-It would be nice to have something not exceeding ~50 episodes, but not limited to that.
Thanks!

Maybe Code Geass? Definitely worth the watch despite somewhat lacking in the romance department. Another choice would be Escaflowne which is much better in of romance.
It's on-hold because I can't convince myself to finish the first season, despite being like... five episodes from the end. I just don't like the series, for whatever reason. I'll finish it someday... I think...Lance wrote: 81ah
Full Metal Panic! and it's later seasons fit all of those. I now see you have this in On-Hold.

Code Geass might be worth looking into - Gundam 00 had little in the romance part too but I absolutely loved it.
Escaflowne? I think I watched an episode or two eons ago but I can't .

Look through the rest of Mamoru Hasoda's work if you liked The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. Summer Wars and The Wolf Children Ame and Yuki are the first two immediate suggestions that come to mind.noneed wrote: 2h1g6g
Uh, just came around watching The Girl Who Leapt Through Time.
Certainly a pleasure to watch!
Has anybody else any movies like that? I have basically watched everything by Miyazaki and also 5cm per Second.
If you liked 5 Centimeters Per Second, then you'd probably do yourself a favor in checking out the rest of Makoto Shinkai's filmography. However, I honestly believe he makes the same film over and over again (filling something to the brim with artificial nostalgia), so the only other thing of his I'd truly suggest is the short film She And Her Cat.

As far as good, relaxing anime is concerned, there is a type of anime floating around referred to as iyashikei, where essentially a sort of Zen-like state is what is intended. Standout titles I'd recommend from this include:
- Aria The Animation/Natural/Origination
- Mushishi
- Sketchbook: Full Color's
Hataraki Man and Flag. For two different reasons, but yes, they're absolutely fantastic.Shirotaku wrote: 1a6i53

It depends what specifically you like...GeeNX wrote: 4u5x1d
Oh, I add you, maybe you can recommend me too!
Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood is my favourite right now. Unless you're in love with subs, I highly recommend the English dub.
Maybe Claymore or Witch Hunter Robin? I wasn't in love with either but they're both action oriented.
Just from a quick browse, it doesn't look like you watch mecha, which has been the bulk of what I've been watching lately.

-Ecchi: I guess Mayo Chiki, although I'm not a fan of the "genre". Mayo Chiki just managed to make me smile.
-Horror: Shiki. Hard to do good horror in anime, but Shiki is decent
-Comedy: Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu will have you laughing the whole time you watch. Definitely my favorite.

Byousoku 5 Centimeter already came out!? I watching the trailer like it was yesterday...
Never heard of Nodame Cantabile but since you recommended it, it's worth a watch!
I love comedy! That's what I enjoy about ecchi animes, forgot to include that.
I think I've seen a bit of Shiki, but I could be wrong. ö
YES! Baka to Test was hilarious! But I was a bit upset about the 2nd season. ):
Haven't heard of Monster, but again it's worth a try!
Thank you so much!

How is LoGH? I've heard a lot about it.
Legend of The Galactic Heroes is a Space Scifi Military Drama thing...
Masterfully choreographed. To give you a better image, Imagine Code Geass with a shit ton of amazing commanders like Lelouch on both sides, where political intrigues, plots and schemes are far from uncommon. Imagine unbelievable battles in space, Its really really good.

SPOILER
This series is overrated on this site. That is to say, with 110 episodes, your vote only counts after you've seen 22 episodes, almost a full season, and those who don't like this show probably won't wait for 22 episodes to decide.
Which is a shame, as it's only after about 20 episodes that this series progresses from something that is slow, somewhat overly bombastic, and hinting at more to come to show itself to be one of the most intelligent pieces of anime that's been made to date.
When I say 'intelligent', I don't mean it to be cunning, surprising the viewer with unsuspected plot lines or new angles to view something. Nor does it delve deeply into some obscure theory of science or arts, bombarding the viewer with ideas he couldn't have come up with himself. In fact, there's absolutely nothing in this series that is wholly unexpected or very deep. What it has, though, is a sense of scale that's unsured in any anime - or, for that matter, any television show - I've seen.
Legend of the Galactic Heroes centers around - you guessed it - a bunch of people who, according to populace at large that inhabits the fictional future this series plays in, are of heroic proportions. That is to say, heroic in a very classical sense, being possibly a negative thing as well as a positive.
The series is set in a future wherein the universe known to man is divided into two camps, the aristocratic and absolutist Galactic Empire, and the democratic Free Planets' Alliance, who have been embroiled in a war for some time, seemingly
being evenly matched. This balance is shattered when a military genius with a far-reaching ambition rises on the Imperial side, prompting the Alliance to, somewhat grudgingly, give ever greater backing to the most capable officer on their own side. Both men surround themselves with able staff, who become legends in their own right.
It sounds like your average hero of freedom-versus-tyrant story, but it turns out to be anything but. First of all, the heroes do have a sense of their own importance, but also the sense to question whether they are all that special, or whether the circumstances of their times have just brought them to a spotlight which people equal to them could never have aimed at. More importantly, the main question on which the whole series hinges remains an open one. This question is the age-old one of which is better, autocracy or democracy, the problem being that a good autocracy is usually better than a good democracy, but a bad autocracy being worse than a bad democracy. Within the happenings of the show, it becomes apparent that, militarily speaking, at least, a good autocracy has an edge over democracy in of speed and decisiveness, and this shows in how the series progresses.
A large part of the series is devoted to showing the war and its subsequent smaller-scale rumblings. The war is fully shown from the side of the commanding officers - one of only a very few shows to do so - and does show an appropriate sense of scale. With battles involving thousands of battleships and millions of men, simple depictions of large-scale tactics take the place of views of the battlefield itself, and a considerable part of the show is, laudable, devoted to discussions on logistics and military intelligence.
A larger part still, though, is devoted to discussions on politics, all within the greater autocracy versus democracy question. Again, these thoughts never go very deep, but what strikes one is that so very many possible variables are brought up. Almost any motive of rulers or the general populace that might affect a political decision is included at some point in the show, making me at least think to myself: 'They even thought of thát one.' The show does tend, here and there, to lean toward the old 'good soldier, bad politician' cliché, but, overall, it really lacks a clear villain, instead showing each possible side (apart, perhaps, from religious fanatics) from every possible angle. Moreover, all this is shown within a future universe that is highly consistent over the full 110 episodes, even if differences between the warring sides tend to be somewhat exaggerated: in many cases whole societies seem to act a bit too much according to a somewhat radical ideology, only to make their following actions be true to form.
This being true to form applies also to most of the actions that, at first glance, seem to be overly dramatical, in the first place many of the actions of the dozen or so main protagonists. However, when thinking about the how and why of their actions, it usually becomes clear that they cannot have but acted as they did, according to cultural mores and individual character. A case in point would be the reliance of many Imperial officers on the character of some military commander to predict his battlefield tactics. This would seem lunacy, until it is ed that the Imperial commanders are a tight-knit group, mostly of noble birth, and known to each other: each commander would know the peculiarities of all others, which become all the more predictable as the importance of gaining personal glory and honour in battle are taken into the equation.
This reliance on known characteristics of all personalities is also possible because the characters don't evolve all that much. Now, I've never understood why 'character progression' in general seems to mean having characters make a full volte-face, and I am, in fact, happy with a series that shows all characters as being fully grown, and fixed in their ways. Each has a specific role to play, and a mind-set that might be predictable, but is, again, true to form. This doesn't make the character shallow. Far from it: their characteristics mean that each takes a single position to a fitting extreme, making for interesting differences between the characters, and accompanying differences in outlook.
That said, it is indeed true that the characters may be somewhat flat, and quite a few seem to be included only to show a different point of view toward a specific situation or theory, but it is exactly this relative flatness that makes it possible for them to discuss so many situations.
As for the art, it is old and outdated, but that can't be held against the show. It is a shame that, mainly in the first season, the series is at times simply bad: persons walk in an awkward way, scenes are recycled, and even relative positions of facial structures change from frame to frame. There's no excuse for that. Technically, though, the art definitely gets better during the course of the show.
In fact, the show being old might be a boon. The creators have opted to make the drawing style relatively realistic, which fits the series splendidly. One has only to look at the manga to see how different it could have been: the style of the manga doesn't fit the show at all.
Real points have to go to the design. Again, nothing is really innovative, from the spaceships to the almost 19th century looking setting to the uniforms of the soldiers. It is, however, solid, and consistent, and really brings the world to life.
The music is outstanding. It mainly consists of generally well-known classical compositions, which, granted, have been often used before, but never have they been used to such splendid effect: especially the use of pieces during battle sequences, fitting the individual scenes to the music, is a joy to watch.
As a whole, Legend of the Galactic Heroes never tries to be overly deep, and, though it tends to be somewhat bombastic, never loses itself to any glorification. It is slow and quite meticulous, focusing on a lot of details, and consists for the largest part of dialogue, not action. The story progresses slowly, and only after about a season's worth of episodes the real story starts to evolve.
And this show never, ever tries to evoke an emotional response. The whole series is based on having the viewer have an intellectual understanding of what happens, not an emotional one. There are, thus, no cheap tricks to elicit emotional response, nothing overly dramatic (barring a few strokes of bombast), and no characteristics that make a main protagonist or villain.
I can only applaud this, considering it a feat to produce such a good series without relying on drama. Legend of the Galactic Heroes is, in this sense, the absolute antithesis of my other personal favourite, Le Portrait de Petit Cossette, appealing to the rational side of the viewer, even when the protagonists act with all their vaunted 'foppery and whim

Now, see, I don't think Bakuman, Samurai Champloo, FMA: Brotherhood, or even Anohana or S;G are must-watches. They appeal to very specific aesthetics that, yes, a lot of anime fans attach to, but that does not mean that they are be-all-end-all titles. It's worth noting what kind of person should watch what when making a recommendation instead of just shouting "THESE ARE MY FAVOURITES WATCH THESE RIGHT NOW LOSER".Foxclore wrote: 1w5n13

So, basically...Bakuman should be recommended to those who like shonen shows that may not have a focus on action and can handle slower pacing. Samurai Champloo is for folks who don't necessarily want more than awesome fight scenes combined with campy, anachronistic technical-story juxtaposition (basically: if hip-hop samurais sound interesting to you do not this one up). FMA: Brotherhood is for fans of the original FMA manga/manga purists in general. Anohana is for those who like manipulative tragedy that for the first 10 episodes is actually very competently executed outside of the Mary Sue tragedybait. Steins;Gate is for those who want to combine SCIENCE! with otakubait and visual novel tragedy.
tl;dr: This thread is meant for more specialized recommendations, based off of what the has seen/what they are looking for, not just blanket recommendations. There are dozens of lists of those out there.
Finally, ending this post with a recommendation request. Looking into potential shonen-ai/shoujo-ai titles that do not invoke the ideas of standard gender roles in a relationship. Also, non-pornographic.
I understand what you are trying to say but that is not the intention of the post I made. Just because someone liked a specific type of anime doesn't mean they wont enjoy other types, especially if those are of very high quality.
For Example: I generally hate mecha and anything that has to do with it, yet I enjoyed every bit of Eva and Cowboy Bebop
Your point may be true is most situations, but not this one, these anime will appeal to pretty much any one, if they don't they they must be people so nit picky about things that no one even likes to hang around them, seeing as they will most likely always make complaints and remarks about something they dont like (OMG why the hell are the peas mixed with the mashed potatoes, i'm not eating this)
Also Suggestions:
Junjou Romantica
Sekaiichi Hatsukoi
Fuyu no Semi
Patalliro!
Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitteiru
Ai no Kusabi
Thats all I could find :/
Disclaimer: Disregarded the do not statement, since I know of so little and generally don't like this kind of stuff

Since I've only seen one of those, I'll be busy with those, thanks a lot.
Now...
Also, generally, it's more than just genre that goes into recommendations, too. Making a good recommendation also deals with potential tone and direction (as well as genre).
Basically, the only reason why I have a problem with that list was your tone in delivery it. Nothing is a must-love.
Now...
...this is not the best point of view. Because everyone has their own interests. I mean, I don't particularly like Evangelion, Bakuman, or Steins;Gate. Plenty of people don't like Madoka or Anohana. It's more of a 'this is popular among the general non-big-3 crowd, watch these to be in the loop' sort of idea instead of 'watch these because they are the best'.Foxclore wrote: 1w5n13

That being said, does anyone have a lesser known generic shounen that is dear to them? I want something mindless to watch. I'd prefer it to be under 26 episodes.

Entry level shitI mean everyone has their own tastes. I have to disagree with this trend of posting a list of things instead of simply asking for something specific. There are charts for this.

Otherwise this recommendation could become quite lengthy.
