Are there any good short mystery anime? Ideally, I am looking for something that has both a clever central mystery to solve/aimlessly speculate about and a core cast of interesting well-developed characters.

Ideally, I am looking for something that has both a clever central mystery to solve/aimlessly speculate about and a core cast of interesting well-developed characters. Agreed with the previous suggestion of Hyouka. Though there's not much of a central mystery there, the characters are great, it's a beautiful show, and it's very well-directed. Saw The Perfect Insider was suggested - not one I'd bother with. I watched it quite a while ago and was really let down. Excellent OP though. Other suggestions:
That's everything that's come to mind right now. Not everything there is a mystery at its core, but I feel all those shows/movies at least have strong mystery elements to them. Hopefully something grabs your interest!

Captain Invictus posted:if manga is okay, you might enjoy Inubaka, it's about a girl at a pet shop that sells dogs in Japan and the dogs look like dogs instead of if you described a dog to an alien like a lot of mangas. be warned though, viz licensed it and then dropped it before finishing(I wish someone would pick up and finish the remaining 7 volumes), so it's not completely translated nor likely to be. but the translation in the scans of the official volumes are good, of course, even if the scan quality is garbo Well that managed to get me to tear up as well.

Would anyone have any recommendations for something I could watch in the background while working? I suppose it would require a good dub since I wouldn't be able to reliably read subs. I haven't watched any anime in more than a decade so my old tastes might no longer be relevant, but I remember enjoying Read Or Die and PlanetES quite a bit.

I am looking for anime that deals with the supernatural; think along the lines of Mushi-shi or Witch Hunter Robin. Preferably something that came out within the last ten tears? No underaged characters or pandering please.

There's a new Gegege no Kitaro series every decade or so since the 60s and as far as I can tell they're all good.

No underaged characters or pandering please. The word 'pandering' can mean many things, but given the context I'm gonna guess you're referring to Standard Anime Fanservice Nonsense because that narrows things down a bit. Jinrui wa suitai shimashita a.k.a. Humanity Has Declined - extremely slice of life, somewhat social commentary/satire. Protagonist is a teenage humanoid but I don't recall any ecchi bullshit. (Can't guarantee there is none, but if there is it didn't register at all.) Kyougoku Natsuhiko: Kousetsu Hyaku Monogatari a.k.a. Requiem from the Darkness - wandering writer collects tales of Japanese folklore by blundering into them. 2003 but obscure so you might not have seen it. Ergo Proxy - post-climate-apocalypse cyberpunk odyssey with a side of dead artificial gods.

No underaged characters or pandering please. Ayakashi, specifically the Bakeneko arc. once you've watched those episodes you can move onto the sequel series that was spun-off from it, Mononoke. i only recommend this watch order because the Bakeneko episodes of Ayakashi are treated as a prequel to the Mononoke series, and i feel like watching them in that order enhances the overall themes of the series and especially the final arc of Mononoke.

Ergo Proxy sounds pretty interesting, as does the other shows. This second request feels impossible; a friend likes anime like Bubblegum Crisis, Witch Hunter Robin, Sol-Bianca, and the two Ghost in the Shell series. So strong women protagonists in a sci-fi setting. Anything within the last 15 years that again doesn't have underage characters and excessive fanservice? Thanks for the recs!
