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

Shaft is always 'unique' in its animation (half of which is an effective method of cost cutting--how convenient)

Arakawa and Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei are pretty iconic from SHAFT for their comedy. I feel like Denpa Onna is pretty similar in this regard as well, despite the moe factor and the author of its source material is a fan of NisiOisiN's writing (bakemonogatari) and it shows even when animated. Paniponi dash has a lot of otaku references so it might be not one of the first to watch. Maria Holic, is pretty hit or miss since it plays on a lot of 'strange' tropes such as the trap, the raging lesbian lead (who's retarded, by the way) fanservice, etc.

so yeah, go with Arakawa/Denpa Onna/Soredemo Machi/SZS, i'd say. i listed them in order from least to most episodic(kind of), since some people can't stand anime structured as such, which i feel plays an important part in how its received by the viewer.

((i also like how you don't score anything, I'd troll people at that point by giving everything a 10.))


Honestly some of the shows I've seen don't even deserve to be rated a 1, so why bother rating them at all? Is there any big name shows I'm missing off my list other than Gurren Lagaan? Not just comedy, but action, mystery etc?

You literally only have one rating though. At this point I'm not sure whether you just hate them all or are too lazy =_=

Legend of the Galactic Heroes is one big-name show you're missing I guess?


I should list that I've seen a couple episodes of it, just haven't finished it. Damn I need to get out more.

I can recommend you code geass I guess, I think it appeals to kinda the same audience. It's mecha so not too sure you like that, I really enjoyed it though. ( though it's kind of a shut your brain off anime for most people)


following on from code geass

guilty crown is a way shittier similar anime

anyone know any other similar animes to code geass and guilty crown?

Shakugan no Shana III Final. That anime is all about everyone keikaku'ing everyone else over and over.



funny that, im watching that right now got through 1 and 2 where i wanted to kill the main guy character for fucking around so much and then episode 1 of season 3 i want to kill the main guy character even harder
i'll perservere through the season though

Don't do it. It's a waste of your brain cells.

He wants an anime similar to Code Geass and Guilty Crown, so why not?


know of another?

I guess another is kind of like CG and GC.

Nice wan

Maybe Gundam Seed as well? Lots of NTRing going on in that one too lol. Or was it Seed Destiny, I forget.


Watched both like 6 years ago.NTR?LOL Hardly any.
Gundam Seed/Seed Destiny is not like CG or GC simply because of the ending and the story.

Arakawa and Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei are pretty iconic from SHAFT for their comedy. I feel like Denpa Onna is pretty similar in this regard as well, despite the moe factor and the author of its source material is a fan of NisiOisiN's writing (bakemonogatari) and it shows even when animated. Paniponi dash has a lot of otaku references so it might be not one of the first to watch. Maria Holic, is pretty hit or miss since it plays on a lot of 'strange' tropes such as the trap, the raging lesbian lead (who's retarded, by the way) fanservice, etc.

so yeah, go with Arakawa/Denpa Onna/Soredemo Machi/SZS, i'd say. i listed them in order from least to most episodic(kind of), since some people can't stand anime structured as such, which i feel plays an important part in how its received by the viewer.

((i also like how you don't score anything, I'd troll people at that point by giving everything a 10.))


Honestly some of the shows I've seen don't even deserve to be rated a 1, so why bother rating them at all? Is there any big name shows I'm missing off my list other than Gurren Lagaan? Not just comedy, but action, mystery etc?

Well, yeah, there are alot of "big name" shows you are missing. You have less than 100 completed anime, and there are alot of notable anime out there thats been released in the past 30-40 years. Rather than just list them all, if you want notable anime, the chart at the top of the page is full of them, and you haven't watched everything on that chart. I doubt anyone here other than maybe Kaal has.

Speaking of that list, this one has no name, and I don't recognize the art.

Hey I see you're watching Great teacher onizuka, is it worth it to watch? I've seen the first few episodes and I'm not sure if it's really worth it, is there really a storyline? In the beginning it's just him being kinda perverted lol, it's not too bad but I couldnt watch 40+ eps of it.


didn't watch the anime but i got all the books.
The storyline in itself is not realy deep (it's onizuka taking care of his students problems and wining them over one by one).
The arc can go into quite serious stuff and is pointing out some rotten things in japan society.
In the end, it is realy enjoyable, both funny and serious at the same time.


Alright thanks, I'll stick to watching it

Hey I keep reading great stuff about Mirai Nikki but still can't really understand what it's about (reading the plot on MAL or other websites is quite confusing). Does it get any action? Is it more centred on mind games and tricks like Death Note? Does it feature great character's portrayal of emotion like Code Geass?

If you're asking what it's about in general, MAL does a pretty good job in general. Basically it's about a bunch of people who are supposed to duke it out and try to become the new God of Time and Space of the world. To save time or something, you could read the first few chapters of the manga to get a feel of what it's about in general.

It does have a lot of characters that are either batshit crazy or going to be batshit crazy.

You'll know a few chapters in what your dealing with. Its not like Death Note or CG. Its was certainly somewhat fresher than most stuff yea.

It's a free for all "only one can win" with some pretty crazy characters. I thought it was pretty entertaining, though it's pretty darned stupid at times...
