The Anime Thread

I'm probably not the best person for slice of life recommendations as I tend to go for more action-y stuff, but two I would recommend are Blue Period and Komi Can't Communicate! Given is also a really good one that's like a drama/slice of life/romance.
I started Komi-san Can't Communicate a while ago, I guess this is a sign to finish it. Thanks!

Could you list a series so I know exactly the vibe you're looking for?
I'm really into March Comes in Like a Lion and Hyouka, primarily. The Fruits Basket remake is also a favorite of mine!

  • Tsuredure Children - Sub/Dub
  • Tsukigakirei - Sub/Dub
  • Horimiya - Sub/Dub
  • Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku - Sub/Dub
  • From Me To You - Sub
  • Masamune-kin’s Revenge - Sub/Dub
  • ReLIFE - Sub/Dub
  • Recovery of an MMO Junkie - Sub/Dub
Thanks, I hadn't heard of a few of these. I'll add them to my list.

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzuymiya is similar to Hyouka in the sense where the bored/deadpan main character gets dragged through shenanigans by another hyper classmate. That said, you either like Haruhi or despise her lol. I haven't seen the other two shows to help too much.
 
Does anyone have any recommendations for laid-back slice-of-life or drama style anime?
Azumanga Daioh
K-on!
Chuunibyou demo Koi ga ****ai!
Tamako Market
it's still airing right now but I also recommend Do it Yourself!!

All of these shows are about cute characters living their lives and exploring hobbies, and most of them happen to be from the same studio (Kyoto Animation) so if you like one, you'll probably enjoy all of them. I saw that you like Hyouka, which is also by Kyoto Animation. ^^
 
I started the Urusei Yatsura anime today since I'm a fan of the manga. It's a really solid and faithful adaptation! All of the voice actors match their character's personalities perfectly. If you're into romcom anime with absurd humor this is a great series to try.
 
i had just finished watching a silent voice, honestly didnt know what i was expecting, i had watched your name a few years ago and that did a number on me. it was honestly really good and killed me emotionally, like, a lot.
 
It's time to go beyond. Plus ultra!


The heroes invade the Paranormal Liberation Front's home base. While Kaminari is absorbing the villain's electricity, Edge Shot and others take him and other villains out and rush on ahead. The heroes seal off the exits and then work on sealing the ones that are left. Tokoyami uses his new special move, Dark Shadow: Ragnarok in order to seal an exit, and then Fat Gum helps him escape. Meanwhile, while the heroes and villains are fighting, Hawks is moving at a pace that's too fast for heroes...

Hawks has Twice trapped and begins cutting him up. To his surprise, however, Dabi intervenes and tries to take care of Hawks. Hawks escapes Dabi's grasp and finishes killing off Twice. Twice uses his last double to save Toga and Mr. Compress before it's confirmed that he's dead. Just how will Dabi and the villains respond to this while Shigaraki is still undergoing treatment?

Next time on My Hero Academia season six, episode four. "Inheritance." You won't want to miss it! (y)
 
Darn. I read somewhere that it was supposed to be a week after the sub but looks like it's not the case. Been teased lol.
From my experience dubs usually come out 2-3 weeks behind the sub, so I would think that would be the case for Spy x Family with it's popularity but I'm not sure!
 
Apparently, real men watch Princess Tutu. It does look like it has a wacky villain, I could use one of those about now.

Princess Tutu is genuinely one of the most unique anime I've seen. Not perfect by any means, but it has very strong characters and a satisfying story with a very whimsical aesthetic.
 
Not long ago me and my best friend watched the Comic Party anime together! (The first one. Comic Party Revolution we also watched some of, it sucks don't watch it.) We enjoyed it a ton! It's a very soothing and relatable anime, and if you can get past the cheap, early 2000s digipaint artstyle you have a real gem. It was also done by OLM, who did the Pokemon anime and the Animal Crossing OVA! :3
 
Something else came back.

I'd like to think that this is a dig at Sony being on the production committee of so many things.

I actually have the first one. A while ago they were advertising the heck out of Comic Party Revolution. I got a good deal on that and something called Wandaba Style.
 
it's been a while since i've used crunchyroll, but i always liked the interface and stuff. well imagine my surprise when everything is behind a paywall now. rip to me i guess i'll have to just stick to other streaming sites now.
has anyone watched high-rise invasion? i must've watched it when it came out and promptly forgot about it because Netflix shows that i've seen a few episodes haha. i'm just curious if it's worth finishing
 
Started watching Blue Lock and Chainsaw Man, I’m super stoked for the next episodes. I might even buy the manga 🤩
 
I watched the newest episode of Spy x Family today and I was very happy with it. I'm so glad that all of the dogs survived unharmed and I really love the name Anya gave to her new dog. Bond was a perfect choice and his bowtie collar is so cute!
