Google tells me Shonen Anime is targeted to preteen and teenage boys.

So is the MCU

Also say what you want about Oda drawing the girl with the big boobs, a lady dressed up as her for a performance and then they met and got married, and then he started drawing her with bigger boobs. Dude's a wife guy

I like Jojo because it's short. Even though the manga's been running for decades you don't have to watch like 500 episodes.

What's the deal with that?

Also it's got relatively self contained arcs that tend to kill off 90% of the cast by the end. (Spoilers) Just the way the author likes to write it, works out well in the long run.

I liked yu yu hakusho. He did his kamehameha with just his finger. I haven't watched it since I was 11 so not sure if it holds up.

Looking at the art style now, actually, it looks pretty bad.

On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog.


great pretender on netflix is an anime that i think people who don't like anime could easily like. its a thriller about a ring of glamorous international con artists who only scam criminals in exotic locales and its only 20 episodes with an actual plotline and ending. I have no idea why it never got popular.

Anime's a lot like British TV where a lot of the good ones that everyone talks about are like 12 episodes and a movie if you're feeling fancy, and it's the mediocre crap that goes on forever. And yes, I'm aware of the hypocrisy as a self professed One Piece fan. (the main difference I feel is that One Piece feels like it was meant to be a big long saga rather than being stretched out over and over)

I started reading One Piece because I read this thread while drunk the other night and now the One Piece rap is permanently part of my intrusive thoughts.

The author for yu yu Hakusho (and now the perennially delayed Hunter X Hunter) is a really good artist capable of really intricate illustration. Almost nobody ever learns this because all his main characters have super simple faces to save time on drawing them over and over.

yeah I don't know why everyone I talk to about YYH loves the tournament so much, everything that happens afterwards is more experimental for the genre and a lot more interesting as a result

he marries the magical waif eterna-child at the end

Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves

ITT we workshop anime ideas.

It's high school as you know it, but with demons. Nothing special happens, they're just normal people with horns and a tail.

It's a hospital, but the patients are death sentence crims and the docs are amateurs. It's a proving ground for everyone.

It's a prison, but the prison is for like, colour or something. The protagonist is the embodiment of the rainbow or some poo poo.

An upholsterer that goes on a journey to become the world's best lover, finding out his dexterity allows him skills unlike any other.

I guarantee that someone has written a light novel for all these ideas.

whole thing is up on Hulu right now with the dub which is unusually good, especially for the time it was made

It has a lady that eats diamonds and the subbed version has the Girls on Film song for the opening which has to be like the most on the nose choice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlIyGMkOTTw It's like space movies playing ground control to major tom.

I'll admit to forgetting how creepy it was and that he married the child. While I have a low opinion of One Piece (it's so loving boring) it shouldn't be on the list.

edit: Whoops I meant the subbed version the dubbed version had something else.

Good news if you didn't know Toonami didn't show the hot springs episode, so just go find that and you're good! Alternatively, you know the internet exists and she's a cat lady in an anime so yeah.

Space Dandy is pretty good. The first ep is nothing special, but the rest of the show is great. I thought it was going to be too horny of a show for me to watch but theres some really weird episodes that make up for it

Space Dandy is like a reverse-anime. Everything about it in the beginning makes you think it's gonna be a horny show. But after like three episodes they just cold drop it and it transforms into a stoner comedy about space dance offs, hunting legendary space fish, and parables about Mutually Assured Destruction.

One thing I sincerely enjoy about watching anime is that a lot of shows have plots that cannot be explained in normal language without coming across like word salad.

One Piece was great when I was 13, but I really don’t think it’s worth revisiting. I always lol when people talk about how emotional the Nami and Arlong arc made them. It’s pretty standard.

I think the Arlong arc was the farthest I could get while trying to watch it, it was just too boring and childish.

I also don't recommend Darling in the Franxx. It manages to be worse than One Piece.
