Maybe Ore Monogatari/My Love Story? It's a pretty funny romantic comedy with a fairly non-standard couple

...How worksafe is Nichijou? I like to watch stuff on the train to/from work, and Nichijou might actually be a good fit. Then I could do one of the other two for the stream.

At the very least, I certainly don't remember the show's animation quality getting any worse - those two episodes excepted - as it went on, so if those episodes aren't what people are referring to then I don't really know what they mean. That said, it's been a fair while since I watched the show.

Yeah, this. It's been awhile but I remember the show being pretty nice looking the whole way through, unless the pretty simple facial design got to you

Chihayafuru is legit one of my favourite things, and the only sports manga/anime I would ever recommend.

Have you watched Haikyuu? It's a lot more focused on the sport itself but it's really fantastic

Durarara and Mushishi are both really soild, apparently Silver Spoon is on there too. It's a fun little show about a guy who goes to an agricultural high school in Hokkaido, lots of adventures in animal husbandry and making bacon and cheese and stuff

Also Wolf Children might be a good movie to have a look at as well. Maybe check out Shinsekai Yori or Michiko e Hatchin some time too

Paprika's a cool concept movie

As is, Girl who leapt through Time and Tekkon Kinkreet and I'd say Wolf Children but it's more of a very sweet family drama with a neat gimmick

Oh, I have no idea if any of these are streamable sorry :(

The Sakamoto show was pretty funny and light but I didn't see a whole lot of it. Flying Witch is a very easygoing and often sweet show though, maybe give that a shot too

It was alright, it suffered for having to reshow parts of S1 and the conclusion wasn't super interesting but I enjoyed Ais' story and the focus on Loki family hijinks

It's getting a new mainline season and movie at some point, looking forward to those

Try checking out The Great Passage. If you’re open to a more historical setting, Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu is very good as well.

Ooh yeah, both of these are terrific shows

Michiko and Hatchin would be a good one too, sort of in the same vein as Cowboy Bebop where it's a stylish drama with some good action/crime-doing in there

Laid Back Camp is a show about a group of girls enjoying camping in the wintertime. It turns out that it's fun to camp by yourself, but it's also fun to camp as a group sometimes too.

Girls und Panzer is a show about a bunch of high school girls who have to put together a tank combat team to compete in high school girls tank combat to save their school. It's got some intense tank action scenes, but also plenty of girls discovering friendship and tanks.

Yuru Camp is Laid Back Camp fyi

The second season of Amanchu was good. It has problems towards the end if you're particularly invested in Pikari/Teko romantically but it's still just as sweet and feel-good as the first season otherwise

Saying she doesn't love Pikari romantically isn't saying it's lesser, what on earth. I remember her wording in that one scene being pretty iffy though so I understand being put off if you're were particularly invested like I said

Julias posted:

It's doubly gross because the boy is a loving 12 year old kid, his feelings on love aren't gonna be the same as an adults, or even an older teen, and the portrayal of this the show by the characters very much says 'oh, gay love isn't as valid as straight love', which, is loving garbage

This feels disingenuous though, the crush is barely a subplot let alone something that's championed by the show. It's a girl being indulgent to a kid with a crush on her friend

Looking for SFW anime recommendations that I can watch on Crunhyroll while I work overtime. Looking for anything old and new.

Things I've enjoyed that fit the SFW requirements:

ACCA: 13-Territory Inspection Dept
Laid-Back Camp
Land of the Lustrous
DBZ Super

Is Hunter x Hunter mostly SFW?

Flying Witch, Chihayafuru, Place further than the Universe and Shirobako are all very good and on Crunchy

Also Polar Bear Cafe if you like very relaxed comedies mostly involving puns :3:

Hanebado was pretty unique like that, at least in terms of other sports anime. Like there's definitely more melodramatic shows and ones that leverage more intense rivalry but I can't think of any that are so uh trauma-driven as Hanebado was
