If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

For currently airing anime, please see Anichart.net

When They Cry series, imo, is best appreciated in the games and reading. How much of that has to do with my bias for reading everything I have no idea~

As for Saya no Uta, last time I saw a torrent at HF for it, it was the original edition. I was looking for the renewed edition, which I recall has upscaled graphics.

At the risk of being the second car to a long train of broken records - Higurashi's sequel is amazing

Thoughts that are probably spoilers for the second season -
+ Show Spoiler +
I didn't really like the first season very much because I'm not a fan of that sort of series - and it felt like it didn't even really have a point. The second season made the entire series shine as a whole to me, and is one of my top recommendations now. As a standalone, the first one wasn't very good imo (just because I dislike the genre). Am I the only one who thinks like this? ._.
I have nothing to put here. Obzy#1821 on Bnet.

Ecael, I never heard of a renewed edition but I am guessing you are talking about the Saya no Uta Nitro The Best! Vol.2 release. When I searched for it on Google, I did not get very satisfying results. Also, you are the first person to bring up a "renewed edition" so that makes me wonder if it even exists. But I still recommend that you still play this game even if you cannot find the renewed edition.

Higurashi's sequel? You mean s1 and s2? Or are you talking about when the seagulls cry?
I hadn't given it a chance yet. ;o

Higurashi season 1 was pretty great for me, but so was Kai. As for Umineko... the visual novel was just amazing. The anime started off weak, but lately it's been getting pretty good!

Ah, I meant Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai - when talking about the sequel.

Umineko no Naku Koro ni is happily sitting, aging, on my desktop. Unwatched and unloved. It might be super awesome but I don't know yet =l

Yeah I just called that renewed, I recall looking it up and seeing that they had upscaled the graphics a bit. After I finish with my current quota of things to read I'd probably get to it whether I can find that or not though.

Umineko is ten times better read than it is watched, in fact, just patch in Beato's voice and we are good to go :D

I plan to read Umineko after I finish Saya. Heard the game is epic but the anime is another story in a negative way.

The anime certainly has its good points, but it is too keen on omitting things from the original. While some of the stuff certainly can be deleted when you switch media (detailed descriptions back in ep1 for every family member almost killed me, good thing I've been trained to put up with long random descriptions). However, cutting back on some of the most epic moments just makes no sense. Latest episodes has been something of a disappointment due to that, I hope that the last story arc will be presented in its full glory. That was some epic stuff.

Lol so I'm out of the loop totally for the past like week or so. Busy with college stuff . Any updates on the new season as to what's good/what's not? I was going to sort through the stuff myself, but I feel too lazy at this point.
It is impossible to be a citizen if you don't make an effort to understand the most basic activities of your government. It is very difficult to thrive in an increasingly competitive world if you're a nation of doods.

Darker Than Black S2, Seitokai no Ichizon, Toaru Kagaku no Railgun - are my recommendations. But I've realized that I tend to favor things that are already talked about to death so this likely does not help ^^;

Thanks for giving me the list that everybody has .

The only recent one that I don't need information about is October 6th and before. Except for Aoi Bungaku Series. That one piqued my interest before and still holds it after the first episode.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a psychological anime/manga? I've read Homunculus (go check it out, reeaaaaaally weird), Liars Game and another one I fail to remember the name (group of students trapped in a building, all tagged with barcodes which allows them to open doors, one of them is the killer, main protagonists are shown with bunny heads on the covers). Besides Neon Genesis Evangelion and a few episodes of Ghost Hunter I haven't seen any good anime for that genre (tried to get into Monster, but the drawingstyle really put me off).

So, any recommendations?

Serial Experiments Lain and Ergo Proxy are the first two that come to mind. Branching off of that, Elfen Lied examines both human psychology and racism (I guess it's called racism?). Paranoia Agent, Boogiepop Phantom, and Texhnolyze... Gilgamesh too.

There's quite a few out there.

I would also recommend checking out a few Cyberpunk genre animes if you're interested in psychological. Lain and Ergo Proxy are both strong examples of the Cyberpunk genre.

Considering that they are doing something as ambitious as 人間失格 for the first series, I'd hold off on the aoi bungaku series for a bit. I don't think that's unreasonable when last time we saw amazing literature being put in animation yielded genji monogatari targeted at a schoolgirl audience

I liked the manga of Fairy Tail, but I heard the first episode was crap.

Akagi. Even if you don't understand the rules of mahjong, it's worth watching just for the psychology.

Kaiji is by the same author from Akagi. It's kinda in the same vein as Liar Game, though I enjoyed Liar Game more. Kaiji is still worth checking out, though.
