thehandtruck posted:Hi there Check out Golden Kamuy. The anime's a good adaptation in every respect but the animation itself, which starts out really rough and rises to "okay" once it's going, but if you're open to reading the manga that's an even better plan. It's about a veteran of the Russo-Japanese War teaming up with an Ainu girl to find a buried treasure, competing with various other groups of criminals and revolutionaries who want it for their own reasons.

thehandtruck posted:Hi there And yeah, Legend of the Galactic Heroes seems like exactly what you want. Also, if you liked One Punch Man, check out Mob Psycho 100? It's a bit coming of age I won't lie, so if that's a hardline thing for you skip it, but it's by the same author as the original OPM comics and has some of the same humor to it, just a lot more characterization and development for the cast, a stronger emotional core. Still a lot of really well animated sequences, though, even if the studio and staff are different and the artstyle's a lot sketchier.

Endorph posted:Planetes seems like it'd be your speed, sci-fi adult workplace drama about people who clean up debris in space. Maybe Towards the Terra, too? The 2007 series, specifically.     Also, it's one of those shows where the dub is also fairly good to stand on its own if you like to have that alternative.

thehandtruck posted:Can anyone recommend some anime that has a ton of depth to it? Bonus points if it's long (cause of quarantine). I love sci fi and very dense shows. If anyone's seen Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy that's kind of what I mean. I dislike the slice of life dramas or comedies unless the comedy is incidental/secondary. Also kinda dislike childishy art styles and 13yr old boy coming of age animes but I loved Evangelion so maybe I have no idea what I want or don't want. Favorite animes are the classics: gits, trigun, evangelion, champloo, beebop, and OPM. Sorry I'm so negative and picky! https://i.imgur.com/pzUsXvK.mp4 https://i.imgur.com/ishbJsO.mp4

he didn't even say he doesn't want shounen, guy just said coming-of-age isn't generally his thing but mob psycho is an exceptional match to opm and trigun. plus, half the compelling characterization comes from an dude in his late 20s who always wears a suit. golden kamuy is playing similar beats to spy flicks a ton, its all about old dudes using subterfuge to gently caress with each other except everyone is in snow-covered hokkaido so occasionally bears appear. there's a ton of close-quarters gun fights. the protagonist is like mid-20s fma also often involves politics and chars snooping around for information, and there's a bunch of dudes looking good strolling about in suits. key spy movie feature. the protag is a pipsqueak but for all intents of the story an adult who has actualized goals and a career to work towards them Space Flower fucked around with this message at 12:25 on Apr 5, 2020 |

Any recommendations for stuff about making art? I'm looking to find manga or anime about drawing, painting, manga-making, photography, or other artistic subjects. Blue Period (fine art), Eizouken (animation), and Kakukaku Shikajika (fine art, manga) are like the ideals for me. Stuff like Comic Girls (manga), Hidamari Sketch (art school), or Tamayura (photography) are cool too, but those are mostly slice-of-life that revolve around art rather than being about the meaty technical stuff. Also, out of curiosity, how is Honey & Clover? I really liked March Comes in Like a Lion and I've been thinking of buying the H&C manga to read since it has official translations. I know that there's a uhh tiny fairy girl love triangle.

Barakamon is mostly about the protagonist (a professional calligrapher) learning to unwind a little, but there's a touch of this, and it's a great show in its own right.

There's Shirobako, also about making anime, though it's more focused on it from a production standpoint than eizouken.

Anthology series in general. Horror is cool but it doesn't have to be limited to that; we (the dork writing this and my SO) watched the No Longer Human arc of Aoi Bungaku last night and we just went through the rest of the series today; she loved that fact that the stories were mostly just these 2-to-4 episode arcs and that's it.

watch seraphim call there's also windy tales which i guess is more like requiem bc there's a consistent cast that is then interacting with the different anthology elements each ep? definitely not as traditional though you could also try sentimental journey but i did not enjoy that enough to finish whereas seraphim call at least varies genres and is willing to be dumb or weird.

Blue Period (fine art), Eizouken (animation), and Kakukaku Shikajika (fine art, manga) are like the ideals for me. The anime is only one or two episodes in, but based on having read the manga, I'm recommending Arte, about a woman trying to become a painter in Renaissance Italy. It's loosely based off Artemisia Gentileschi, hopefully without... uh, some of the stuff that happened to the real person.

Are you sure? She's a woman artist in the same time period but everything else about her life seems different. I also don't imagine the anime lady is gonna paint anything quite this hardcore.

also the way the shonen jump editorial board is depicted as fair arbiters of objective art opinions is pretty funny but it runs in shonen jump so, not exactly the mangaka's fault there. edit: Actually I've heard act-age, a currently running shonen jump manga about an actress, is pretty good, but I haven't read it.

Hibiki is about writing and the publishing industry though it is framed through relatively grounded characters interacting with an implacable force of nature in the form of a teenage girl.

You really just have to play it by ear-some things are on Crunchyroll, some on Funimation, some on Neflix, sone on Hidive, and some you can't find streaming anywhere and may need to resort to  your best bet to find where something is streaming is to just google the show or use https://because.moe and typing in the show name

i think a lot of crunchyroll's back catalog is available free (with ads but my adblocker seems to catch them) without a subscription, they default the player to standard def to make it look like you have to pay to get HD, but you can tick it up to 1080p anyway, it won't stop you.
