you should watch dancouga nova, not because it is pointless trash i enjoy secretly, but because it is a weird and interesting show i enjoy openly that's also kind of a mess that collapses in the back half but still has memorable scenes

I'm looking for a barely even half-remembered anime I saw fifteen plus years ago at this point and was probably older still, thought if anybody might be able to find it you all would. Unfortunately I only have some pretty short memories of two mechs fighting in an Edo style town/city and one of the mechs being slammed into/through a building in a giant cloud of smoke. My only other real memory of it and this might be conflated with other anime I've seen since so sorry if it's a red herring, but I think one or both of the mechs might have had tendon style ligature between the armor pieces, a la Halo hunters or various other things of that type. It was the opening scene of either the show or the episode and that's about all I've got to go on.

I watched Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro during NYE, it was great. Now I finally understand the reference in Marisa Stole the Precious Thing! I read that Miyazaki and Takahata made Lupin III a lot more accessible during its initial TV anime run, toning down the sex and violence. So the movie seems to be the apotheosis of their efforts, but I've read that hardcore Lupin fans aren't as fond of it as his other stuff. I'm in the mood to watch more, though I probably can't commit to watching long TV anime. I've seen a bit of red jacket Lupin on TV (it was good and made a casual fan out of me), and some episodes of the Fujiko show, which I should get around to finishing, and the new CG movie which I thought was excellent. EDIT: I've asked for recs in a previous post (good movies of long-running franchises), so I will note those (the newer Lupin work starting from the Fujiko series, and Mystery of Mamo). I'm just interested in the divide between edgy and accessible Lupin--the original TV anime seems to have the biggest tonal shift due to one of the directors getting fired and stuff.

i see people handwring a lot about made in abyss, but is it actual goblin slayer tier of gratuitous murder rape or is it more just in the madoka realm of kids in a cute cartoony art style getting eaten by monsters

It's not the violence that's the problem source material wise. It's that the author is a pedophile and makes that abundantly clear with how he draws children in distress. The anime is less bad about this, but still ends up having the "once you notice it" issues of a Tarantino movie but instead of feet it's children suffering. Not really something someone can give you a "as bad as ______" comparison on.

I think the fact that the whole story would work better if the main character wasn't a small child doesn't help, it feels extra gratuitious because of the dissonance between how she looks and acts and the fact that the other child characters act far more like you'd expect. I guess it's an anime staple to have absurdly underaged MCs but it does feel gross in MiA for various reasons

s1 has one particularly uncomfortable torture-porn-y scene and outside of that its just a lot of little TMI-ish bits that add up. havent seen the movie or read the manga so i dunno if it escalates

before the anime aired I skimmed through the manga to see what the story was about and it had stuff like the robot boy getting anally violated as a gag, idk how much of that ended up in the anime but stuff like that and the already-mentioned nudity was really uncomfortable and gross so I zero interest in ever watching it

yeah, after seeing this i dont really have an interest in checking it out anymore, thanks for the replies everyone. its a bummer because the art is interesting from the official PV images and stuff. too bad its all in service of naked kids befalling terrible fates

tbh i don't think the girls in glt are meant to really be nearly as young as the cast of mia, it's mostly cause the art is so loose and blobby. it is better than made in abyss though

It's strange how the consensus drifts over time. I ate a ban for being too hard on Made in Abyss back when it was airing. Granted, I was too hard on a lot of shows, but that one I stand by. Actually, I haven't really kept up on anime at all since then. Can anyone recommend something that: - Came out between 2017 and now - Isn't an adaption - Doesn't lean heavy on amnesia or time travel - Does something weird/artsy/unusual As an example the only thing I've watched between then and now is Deca-Dence, which ticks all those boxes and was OK.
