Crunchyroll only has the second season of Mushishi though. It doesn't matter too much since it's an episodic series, but the first season should be all on Funi's official YouTube channel. Dunno if that has region restrictions tho.

edit: looking more for manga, not anime. Question, what other series are there that deal with a handful of survivors in an end-of-the-world scenario, after everyone else has been wiped out/disappeared/evacuated/etc, or hell, go a step further, the total extinction of the human race? There's this one that has its moments of perviness but mostly deals with slice-of-life survival amidst the ghost towns of Japan two years after mysterious "Phantoms" started appearing and just loving disappearing people in one of the most horrific manners I've ever seen and there's nothing humanity can do to stop them, until it's down to four survivors left. It's called After School of the Earth and it flips sporadically between survival, mystery, comedy, horror, slice of life and romance. The artwork of the dilapidated world that surrounds them is gorgeous and the phantoms are just nightmare creatures that seemingly can't be stopped by anything physical, and dismantle human beings very similarly to the Visible Human Project. There's Yokohama Shopping Trip, about a highly-advanced android during the twilight days of humanity, who runs a coffee shop. And for a total extinction scenario, there's the classic one-shot Hotel(only the chapter linked here is the real one, anything else is not by the same dude iirc, and sucks) wherein humanity triggers a total apocalypse that turns earth into a Venus-like planet, and it follows an AI that has been tasked with being the caretaker of the "Hotel", in which the last remnants of earth's organic history resides, for 27 million years. But aside from those, I can't really think of many other series that are about an earth where very few or no humans exist anymore, and I'm curious if there's any other good ones. edit: oh there's Donyatsu as well, that one's real pretty in a post-apocalyptic way although apparently recent volumes did catastrophically bad(like 500 volumes sold I think?) so that's likely getting canceled very soon if it hasn't already Captain Invictus fucked around with this message at 14:32 on Apr 28, 2016 |

Shinsekai Yori(From the New World) is pretty great, I don't want to say much about it so as not to ruin anything but it's about this group of friends following their childhood and early adulthood in a post-apocalyptic world, the premise and world building in it is good, the animation/art style is very nice, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Another fantastic show is Now and then, Here and there(Ima, Soko ni Iru Boku). This show is... Pretty intense. It follows a boy who gets teleported to what we can only assume is the far future, where the planet is drying up and undergoing severe desertification, and control of the little water left is what drives brutal conflict. The main antagonist is a fuckin whackaloon that uses forced child soldiers to do his bidding, and I don't want to say much more about the show to not spoil anything, but I totally recommend it. Just be ready for some dark rear end poo poo.

The worst part about it was the whole apocalypse side story though, like I think you could have excised that entirely and come out with just as good if not better of a series that deals with terminality, love, loss, etc Captain Invictus fucked around with this message at 14:35 on Apr 28, 2016 |

Since it's Mushishi it almost certainly doesn't matter, but I believe that was the first new Mushishi content so technically it was watched by most people before any of the the newer show, so basically a bridge between that and the 2005 original.

Seconding this recommendation - watched it very recently and it was excellent. From what I've heard of the manga, it's terrible, so don't bother with that.

Yeah, though the parodies might be beyond the scope of newer anime viewers, for what its worth. Daicon iv is a good "lotsa crazy animation / pop culture references" tho its just a music video.

I love OnV but it's pretty ancient these days so I just figured I'd make the point. I love ELO and Gainax so seeing Daicon IV was a revelation. Made the Daicon V joke in FLCL finally make sense too.

I've recently read the fan translation of Shin Sekai Yori, I found it fairly well written, and it makes the MC come across more clever and educated. I'd recommend watching the show first, so you get a sense of the visuals. The novel clears alot of the misconceptions that some people had while watching the anime.

I like it a lot more than GotF because it lets bad things happen to people who don't deserve it but unlike GotF they have to work through their issues instead of tragically and pointlessly dying because war is poo poo.

the main character is deliberately immature and not very likeable at the beginning and is occasionally kinda bad in those ways, but they're not qualities I would really associate with the work as a whole. It's fair if you don't want to deal with that kind of protagonist though
