I've also seen Riding Bean, Gunsmith Cats, Dead Leaves, Aachi wa Ssipak and Golgo 13 out of that list, but the rest sounds dope.

Geobreeders/Geobreeders Outbreak Tenamonya Voyagers both are more on the cheesecakey and comedic side of the OVA line, but have extended and lavishly animated action sequences

Ai City might also be worth a look, it's one of those bad-good things but i really enjoyed the cheesy soundtrack and action in it. iirc there's some weird romantic hinting between the mc and a girl who is a clone of his dead lover but i don't remember it being a huge part

If we're talking 90's OVA's with cheesecake/fanservice to the max... maybe, and this is just a thought here, I dunno: Golden Boy?

Golden Boy also stands out for me as one of the few animes where the English dub is actually freakin' great. Certainly qualifies as "entertaining OVA" and "wow much busoms".

Iria the Zeiram animation isn't very gory, but it's about a sexy lady bounty hunter in a scifi setting. I have a soft spot for it since it was one of the first anime's I saw back when the SciFi channel aired a weekly movie/batch of ovas. edit: And Dominion: Tank Police too. and the Fist of the North Star movie. A masterpiece of dumb gory action. Galvanik fucked around with this message at 06:50 on Mar 29, 2019 |

This is a slightly embarassing ask but... What are some of the best melodramatic maybe slightly trainwrecky "guilty pleasure" animes out there? Slightly "trashy" anime that's definitely not "a critic's choice" but entertaining to binge. Dramatic plot twists fit the type of show well. I'd say the most obvious pick is Code Geass. Sword Art Online hits the spot too. Both include ridiculous power fantasies but that's not necessary. The protagonist coming into contact with powerful individuals/entities is almost preferable instead, honestly. Not sure I could stand them today but I guess Gundam SEED/Destiny fits the bill pretty well too. edit: Currently airing reincarnated as a slime anime definitely does not fit the bill. The show has pretty much zero stakes from what I've watched. I've actually watched Future Diary, and yeah it kinda fits the bill for sure. v Dessel fucked around with this message at 00:40 on Mar 31, 2019 |

It is literally the exact thing you are requesting. It arguably doesn't hold up to scrutiny, but that show will grab you by the balls if you dig twisty melodrama. As far as stakes, they start out high and get bonkers. Yukki is also not exactly a power fantasy character, but he's one of my favorite examples of a more or less normal person getting swept up by a tornado of wild poo poo against their will and having to try and adapt, so I think you'll dig him. e: it's also better than anything you mentioned other than Slime, which is so different I genuinely feel weird trying to compare them.

Windaria Book Girl two movies made from distilled melodrama. you can also go for classic shoujo melodrama in something like Honoo no Alpenrose.

He's really got that high affective empathy / low cognitive empathy thing going on.

o;9 is good but it does have one of the most unique "trainwreck" episodes late in the season when a guest director decided every shot should be at a dutch angle, if not straight up rotated 90-180 degrees

Fuckin Valvrave the Liberator I enjoyed the heck out of that anime for some reason, even though it was bad. I think the goofy anime music (I believe it has songs by both TM Revolution and Angela, both of whom are experts at the sub-genre of "hype anime music") played a part. I'm also a huge sucker for the "fujoshi bait situation where protagonist has some pretty boy counterpart that he's more emotionally involved with than the actual female love interest" situation in shows like that or Aldnoah;Zero.

I originally watched Guilty Crown when it aired and it honestly matches the description, but I dropped it for whatever reason. Maybe on a binge it's better. And yeah Valvrave fits perfectly, and I've watched it. I have now watched quite a bit of Domestic Kanojo and it isn't quite what I was looking for (literally domestic instead of some ridiculous world saving epoch/war/whatever) but I enjoy it apart from the protagonist occasionally acting like a complete immoral piece of poo poo and that "literary club teacher" acting in a way that would constitute as sexual harassment 100% and they should be tried for their acts I've also watched Another when it aired. I've also watched Oregairu a bit but dropped it for whatever reason too. It definitely has similar vibes to Domestic Kanojo. edit: Also thanks for the recommendations! edit: Even though I'm a Sci;Adv fan I dropped O;9 originally out of boredom.

I’m trying to start it since I’m rewatching robotics notes w the gf, and I like humongous boobs, but the first episode has like no hook for me and everyone talks like a bakemonogatari character on speed. Where does it rate versus R;N or steins gate in most peoples opinion?

oh yeah mob's original author is the same guy who's the original author of one punch man. they're fairly different shows stylistically/tone-wise and they differ a lot in how they're adapted but they're still working from the same guy's work at the end of the day so there's still similar senses of humor and recurring ideas and such
