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

The amount of amusement one get from getting others to watch School Days without knowing what lies ahead.

Stop making me want to bother with Cross Days

Anime isn't that good with realism...

How on earth is Clannad realistic? Not a single character is Azumanga Daioh is realistic either...

You really need to define realistic. Realistic characters? Maybe Haibane Renmei. Realistic plot? Maaaaaybe Monster, but frankly that's pretty unrealistic too.

Frankly I haven't seen any anime I would call "realistic" -- it seems like a really silly use of the medium. Animation is like a blank canvas, where you can draw anything, as opposed to the more rigid constraints of live action. Why would anime want to be realistic anyway? If it wanted realism, it could just be live action instead.

Or you can just say "fuck realism" and watch Gurren Lagann or something. :p

I have not seen an anime that fits realism and I doubt those two could go well together but I guess the one that fits realism closest for me was Ghost in the Shell.

Hrm, realistic with a good story? That's tough..

I don't think there is any anime that's totally realistic and like others have mentioned.. why should they be?

However, let's see what I can come up with- Monster, Gungrave, Genshiken, Welcome to the NHK, Kenshin OVAs, Tokyo Magnitude, Nodame Cantabile... I'm blanking here on anime with decent story lines. But if you are in to romances(I'm a sucker or them) and sports there are plenty of them.

Romance- True tears, Honey and Clover, REC, etc
Sports- Major, Hikaru no Go, Shion no Ou, Wild Striker etc..

makoto is such a baller in school days

Realistic if you don't mind movies could be like 5 Centimeters Per Second, and The Place Promised in Our Early Days.

As for series, I dunno. Ghost in the Shell does a good job of portraying the struggle with the government and corruption though.

School Days is pretty realistic: Guy goes out with many girls, he gets owned.
Unlike other harem animes (insert names): Guy goes out with many girls. Girls are happy, guy is happy, and panties shots make the audience happy.

You know what is the worst thing about school days is? The god damn misleading cover. I look at the anime cover and thought "hmm, looks pretty normal. Might as well watch a calm, NORMAL anime for once."

Looks pretty realistic. Especially the blood and the reactions.

Don't condense School Days down to just the ending!

Can't forget the rampant sex. That's most certainly realistic.
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.

I recommend NANA and Honey and Clover for "realistic" slice of life/drama nothing too outrageous here

Clannad had that supernatural element to it especially with after story

Tell you what people! I am going to try to be like Makoto! My grades are pretty similar and my quiet attitude is matches Makoto at the beginning. I also know a slutty girl who can probably help me with training. If I do fuck half of the girls of the school and even get killed by the end of the year, then School Days is realistic.

Fine...having girls kill each other over you like that sounds like something people would normally do, right?

Haha, let's end this tedious debate, this is one of the stupidest online arguments I have ever seen. I cannot take this seriously in any way.
