Whispers of the Heart is really chill and mellow as well and you get to hear Country Road sung like a dozen times in it. Porco Rosso is also just straight up great. Dude just flying around being a pig and hating fascists Kalli fucked around with this message at 16:27 on Mar 23, 2024 |

fartknocker posted:0080 is only 6 episodes and has really nice late 80s animation, so if you want something quick but also really, really good, this is a good place to start. You don’t really need much outside context to understand the setting, the show provides enough details to get it, but having seen the original series or movies helps, and the six episodes basically make it a long movie, so it’s not a major time investment. 0080 was one of my first entries into Gundam, and it legitimately got "wait, you can't end it there!" reaction out of my teenage self, it was great. I also have a lot of love for 0083; it has some of my favorite UC Gundam designs ever (the 02 is one of my favorites ever). But like fartknocker said, don't think too hard about it, they definitely didn't. But to add a little more, you can also find several series on the Gundaminfo Youtube channel (including Witch From Mercury, Seed, Seed Destiny, and Build Metaverse, at a quick glance), and they're constantly rotating series in and out of the channel.

Never appreciated it until then

Bird in a Blender posted:Kiki’s Delivery Service is great. Studio Ghibli is like the one anime studio you can trust, and almost all of them are great for kids. Kiki, My Neighbor Totoro, Howl’s Moving Castle, and Ponyo are good little kid movies. Spirited Away would be fine for 9 and up, only because there’s a couple of “scary” scenes. Princess Mononoke is probably 12 and up since there’s some violence. The only Ghibli one I’d warn about is Grave of the Fireflies because… oh boy… That’s in the same category of stuff like When the Wind Blows or The Day After. To be clear, it is an outstanding movie, but know what you’re getting in to with it. Shinji2015 posted:0080 was one of my first entries into Gundam, and it legitimately got "wait, you can't end it there!" reaction out of my teenage self, it was great. Yeah, I first saw 0080 when it aired on the Midnight Run in October 2001 (I taped it, and my dad still has the tapes somewhere) and the whole thing my 11-year old mind, between (Minor spoiler) the sudden escalation of the violence during the firefight in episode 4 when they try to destroy the Alex and the whole last episode. 0083 would have been totally fine if the ended literally on the scene where Kou and Nina kiss after the attack on the Naval Review. It’s after that where things get truly insane and start causing über UC nerds like myself to go “ wait this doesn’t fit the timeline”… but drat if it isn’t entertaining nonetheless.

Also for recent shows, Frieren is quite good. Basically a D&D campaign world where 80 years after the party beats the big bad... the elf mage from the party goes around the world trying to finally understand people after they've passed on. Just a chill, beautiful show

Yeah Frieren is really good. There's a lot of emphasis on how elves would perceive the world and passage of time when they live for thousands of years. Like it starts with her going on a quick 50 year excursion and returning to find the hero's party all elderly and being kind of taken off guard by the hero dying of old age Multiple instances of her having to be told no a ten year stopover to just chill out and research magic is too long for her human party Intruder fucked around with this message at 17:28 on Mar 23, 2024 |

I'm gonna have to check it out.. I just made a new dnd character: a human who sold his soul to Asmodeus in exchange for 1000 years of life so he could live "forever after" his elf wife, who dies young when he's still in his 30s. Fast forward 230 years later and that's the start of the campaign.

Crunchyroll So many great bits. Like when her new tagalongs go to check on the unstoppably powerful demon she sealed away with the hero's party back then.

I am 2 epsiodes into Three Body Problem and dig it so far. But the biggest mystery in the show is how the hell Rosalind Chao looks younger than when she was on Deep Space 9.

If we’re recommending new animes I highly recommend Delicious in Dungeon on Netflix It’s a very adorable and funny show about a D&D party that’s too broke to buy enough food to last long enough to get deep into the dungeon so they learn how to cook the monsters they slay on the way down

Anime 101, but please watch Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood if you haven't. Also watch Your Lie in April if you want a fun spring time slice of life

I am not sure if she is actually interested in anime or not, she requested it because I guess they started watching it in their afterschool program and she wanted to finish it, but then she wandered off anyway. Thanks for the recommendations, I will keep those movies in mind if she does want to watch more anime.

3 DONG HORSE posted:I'm gonna have to check it out.. I'm gonna steal this. Well, eventually. My current D&D character is a 76-year-old adventurer who came out of retirement to find her grandson (also an adventurer) who went missing. She's technically a monk but I've just skinned her powers as her being a seasoned bar brawler, and the ki points as "I used to do this trick all the time but with my back trouble I can only do it a couple of times a day now." Its been exactly as fun as you'd think playing an elderly grandmother murdering the poo poo out of people with her bare hands would be.

No memory of what I ordered but I asked for it spicy and got the literal hottest thing I’ve ever had in my life. I love spicy food and powered through it but it was like sent directly up from hell. My wife was laughing her rear end off as I sweated and cried through my meal that I swear I enjoyed!!!

As someone who's been reading Delicious in Dungeon, I'm also co-signing the rec. It's a wonderful series and the only reason I haven't seen the adaptation yet is I got locked out of my parents' Netflix account and I don't want to reward their business practices by paying for a separate account.
