Yeah, no, I tried one episode of serious Enma and it was just boring. Boogiepop Phantom or Lain might be an idea, neither of are scary exactly but I can't think of anything else that goes weird and unsettling better.

Monogatari is a series with lots of really good things and also lots of really bad things and it's up to the individual viewer to decide which is more important, I feel.

It's a 39 episode tv series from the late 90's with a low budget, that's pretty much its excuse.

Gungrave is tough because the flashback stuff is great but everything dealing with the original games events is awful.

Most of the stuff I can think of with 'epic gun battles' in, they're not very good and the worst thing about the shows in question. The Gunsmith Cats OAV was okay, I don't remember the actual shooting guns stuff being anything special though. Also I've literally never cared about another sports anime but Chihiyafuru is great.

Eh, I mean the TV series is old and was low budget even at the time, I love it if only for the inventiveness they used to portray the violence in a TV friendly way, and compared to a lot of shounen is relatively concise and well paced (once you get past the weird opening thirty episodes of filler) but it's still an old rear end TV show. The 1986 movie has one of most hilarious dubs of all time and I love it. The Shin Hokuto no Ken OVA is mostly forgettable but sometimes interesting because it were the first time Hokuto Shinken has ever been animated without being censored (the 1986 movie was originally but pressure from parent groups forced them to censor it before it hit theatres) and is insanely violent in places. The first two movies in the 2007 trilogy are decent enough recaps of the Souther and final battle with Raoh arcs but the last one is an anime original prequel and kind of meh.

The backlash was mostly against the original LN's, it didn't even know there was a manga version.

It's been subbed but I haven't had chance to watch it yet, I think the general consensus was better than the second season but not great. I don't know if it would make any sense without watching season 2 before anyway.

Anime movies based on TV shows tend to not have huge budgets anyway, unless it's like Evangelion or something.

Bleremiah posted:I'm worried Gurren Lagann mighta ruined most of anime by finishing with two universe sized mechs, powered by sheer willpower, throwing galaxies at each other and firing big bangs. gently caress me if the second movie doesn't take it up another notch. GoaGaiGar I guess but it's like 49 episodes + OAV and takes a while to get going.

Punchline is written by the same guy who wrote 999/VLR, you should try that as long as high fanservice levels don't bother you.

People will eat pretty much anything when their access to essential nutrients is limited. Moyashimon is a cool series, though I remember not being that enamoured with the second season.

Help Im Alive posted:I played the game instead of watching the anime but is there any other cool time travel stuff like Steins;Gate (I think the only one I've seen is The Girl Who Leapt Through Time + I've read Qualia the Purple) I feel like it's kind of a spoiler but Madoka is the best show you haven't mentioned that involves time travel.

The main show is a straight action/comedy/ecchi thing that doesn't do any fourth wall breaking (that I can remember), those are from what would now be DVD extra shorts.

At one point during the height of SailorMoon/DBZ popularity someone was planning on localising the Rouroni Kenshin TV series for US networks as Samurai X, it ended up not happening but for some reason ADV stuck with it for the movie/OAV releases, just in case I guess.

Torquemadras posted:Well, I tried to get into Patlabor. First the TV series, and when that didn't click for me, I tried the OVA. Yeah, and... I'm not that into it. If you don't mind a longer series GaoGaiGar gets pretty nuts eventually, though it takes a while.

I dig the "realistic" aspect of the mechas, and it's occasionally really drat hilarious - Episode 4 of the OVA in particular was a pitch-perfect parody of kaiju movies, holy poo poo - but I'm... just underwhelmed by the mechas. And I don't really like the cast enough. Hm. I wasn't expecting another Diebuster (which instantly shot right into my Top 10 anime because I loving love FLCL and, as I discovered, cool mechas), but I'm still underwhelmed. Oh well.

I mean it takes 20 episodes to get going, as it were, I still enjoyed it from the start though. It's a show for kid kids though, rather than adult kids.

Kylra posted:I've been feeling like I want to cry to something. Not the sappy romance happy kind of tears though. I want the kind that comes from irrevocable loss and/or struggling through some kind of intense personal suffering. Perhaps with some nobility mixed in, but not something that's just in the epilogue unless it's really powerful. Below is a list of some examples of the general direction of the kind of thing I am looking for. I don't mind if there's build up to it. Romance type stories are still acceptable recs here, but should probably be tragic in some way (see: Princess Tutu, Utena). Saikano Don't watch if you have any sharp objects or a large amount of painkillers around though. Sakurazuka fucked around with this message at 08:30 on Jan 28, 2016 |

Kubla Khan posted:Guys can you recommend me a historical anime. Basically I saw Hyouge Mono, liked it a lot, so now I'm craving for more. Things I'm looking for in particular You could try The Hakkenden, it's a 13 episode OVA from the 90's, there's a fairly large fantasy element but it's mostly rooted in Shinto practices and folklore, there's no super powered battles or anything. It's set in 15th century Japan and mostly grounded in actual history. It also has Masaaki Yuasa's first directorial work on a couple of episodes. Don't confuse it with the otome game adaptation from a couple of years ago though.

Darth Walrus posted:Recently watched Angel's Egg and Night on the Galactic Railroad, and I'm in the mood for more stylish, surreal, and eerie anime in the same vein. The former in particular had a loving amazing Ligotti-meets-From-Software cosmic-horror aesthetic that I hunger for more of. It's not as good as either but you could try Darkside Blues. Watch Lain first but if you've seen that watch Boogiepop Phantom.

You should watch Kenji's Spring as well, it's a(n unfortunately fictional, because almost nothing is known about his life) movie about NotGR author Kenji Miyazawa. Also try Belladonna of Sadness.
