From the New World is kind of a slow burn (and yeah the exposition episode is kinda awkward), and it's weird becomes sometimes the direction is fan-loving-tastic and others can seem really flat. I still love it however. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9XL35b9OjI Dororon Enma-kun MeeraMera (*BAMF* It's Enma! ~crickle crackle~) is hilarious and lewd and silly. I didn't like the serious version of it either.

The Nausicaa manga is one of the great pieces of world creation in all of science fiction. It's a decent Ghibli movie, but the manga is on a whole different level.

gmq posted:Hi guys, I'm still looking for anime (in Crunchyroll) that'll make me cry out of happiness/heartwarming. I'm not sure if it's actually still on crunchryoll, but yeah the Bunny Drop is so heartwarming your heart might literally burst into flames. It's super good. So watch that if it is still up, and consider it even if it's not. AnoHana is another good suggestion, it is much heavier on the sadness however.

DrSunshine posted:I'm in the mood for something optimistic -- is there anything like the manga/anime equivalent of Star Trek? Something set in a clean, optimistic future, about characters doing things in space or somesuch. Planetes was great, but a bit downbeat. Bodacious Space Pirates. Yes, i'm 100% serious. That's almost exactly how I would describe it.

Yeah Voices of a Distant Star is just one guy, in the original version he and his wife even did the voice acting. It's short, but it's good. His actual first project is She and Her Cat, a 5 minute short that is also definitely worth tracking down.

ninjewtsu posted:legend of galactic heroes is really long. does it take like 30 episodes to get going or is there a ton of unnecessary padding or anything like that, or is it just a billion episodes of nonstop quality anime? It's the latter, assuming you like the kind of story it is.

Torquemadras posted:Hey, what's the resident anime expert opinion on Darker Than Black? I've been looking for some sci-fi-ish action shows after having watched Psycho-Pass and Cyber City Oedo (which is so goddamn awesome, had a huge grin during the entire show ), and at least the first season seems to be well-liked. The basic premise sounds like shonen standard fare, though, which I'm not too keen on. Worth a try? I really liked the first season (of DTB) and the OVAs. While i didn't hate the second season per se...i didn't really like it much either. I'd still recommend it though! Giant Robo isn't like either of those, but the animation is great and it's very cool. I'm not as blown away by it as a lot of people, but in a weird way it feels like a failing on my part rather than the show's.

This is chronological order (not release order), i bolded the ones to definitely watch. Macross Zero SDF Macross Do You Remember Love* Macross Plus Macross 7 Macross Frontier Seven is realllly long and i didn't care for it at all. Zero adds magical weirdness and the best thing about it is when it gets referenced in Macross Frontier. Macross 2 is it's own strange thing and i haven't even bothered with it, maybe someday i will. *DYRL is a movie version of the first series, it's no longer quite canon, but it is fantastically animated and has some of the best songs in the whole series.

A Doomed Purloiner posted:Castle of Cagliostro Expelled From Paradise. Oh, he probably wants good movies. Patema Inverted was ok. The setup was neat, and I liked the imagery. My biggest problems that I remember are that Patema herself doesn't get to do much, and the overly cartoonishly evil villain.

Have you seen any of Shinkai's films? 5cm per Second, The Place Promised in Our Early Days, and Garden of Words might be right up your alley. If manga works, read Solanin and/or Nijigahara Holograph. e: a couple of those movies are even on crunchyroll, I think. a kitten fucked around with this message at 07:02 on Jan 28, 2016 |

Ghost of Starman posted:Are there any series on Netflix that folks would highly recommend? (I've seen & enjoyed Madoka, TTGL, and Kill la Kill already.) Any mecha series, in particular. Netflix announced that they will be streaming the brand new mecha series Kuromukuro, but haven't specified a date for it yet. Apparently Netflix.jp has already aired two episodes (with English subs, no less), so that might be worth keeping an eye out for when they do get around to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHkCNXjh3sI There's a new thread for it too, if you want to give that a look.

I've heard the earthsea adaptation isn't great. I bet it's better than the live action tv version tho. Probably just best to stick with the books. There's a Lensman anime, based off a space opera from the 60s. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lensman_series

Princess Mononoke was the first Ghibli film i got to see in the theater, so that makes it the best. The English dub is pretty good ('cept Billy Bob Thornton) and the script was done by Neil Gaiman, if that's a selling point as well. It's beautiful, it's got a strong ecological message and
