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

well to be honest i'm sort of the "johnny come lately" to the anime scene, so there's possibly some in there i'd like, but there's like tons and tons of others that i still need to/really want to watch. Like i watched most of the "mainstream" animes and was like...i really need to find more...and gradually i've been finding good ones but then i come into places like this and everybody's talking about shows ive never even heard of and I just feel like i'm so so hopelessly behind...and i WAS enjoying Gokukoku up until this past episode, i don't think it's exactly the way you're saying but i can see how somebody would feel that way about it.

We talk a lot about the shows that are currently airing so if you are following the current season you will probably see some stuff you recognize. The rest is really just trying to branch out on the huge ass amount of stuff that is out already lol. Took me a while too but I just went through places like MAL and other streaming sites (plus the TL rec list in the mod note) and caught up on a lot of it. Even then I am hopelessly behind a lot of the people here in terms of anime watched.

Well, the criticism is kind of unfair on my part. What I am describing is basically a standard template at this point. Details may vary, but killing people into big reveal is a simple and effective way to get audience's attention. Trying to pay homage to works of the past with references is also something that people do normally. Most of the issue lies in the fact that people repeat the process when their initial idea ran out. Why does that happen? Because the industry shotgun one-ofs using the template with a bare minimal amount of content and little plan on continuation. The scenario planning from the mangaka never goes that far and few of them have skills to keep the process up without letting the readership bore out. For better or for worse though, people will still care even if you keep on repeating the same process for a while. So some of those works make it with a big enough following for an anime. And now every season you see this repeated.

I wasn't talking about Gokukoku anime btw, I was talking about the manga.

Yes i do like MAL, although the recs from there have been somewhat useless I still like being able to keep a list of what i've seen and what i rate them as...so i can later go back and be like "oh somebody said show A was like show B and i really liked A so im gonna watch B" , but the TL rec list is nice, ive definitely used it to find a number of shows to watch that i've liked. (especially the baseball ones, i played baseball for about 18 years and even if the story's aren't good i still enjoy the baseball theme to them...but most of the stories have been pretty good to me so far)

^ This guy gets an instant +1 from me for liking baseball anime. Now you just gotta branch out and watch (and like) the other good sports anime. :>

How do you recognize Chihayafuru as the sports manga that it is and still recommend it.

Well my opinion on this is definitely in the minority~

gifff anime.

Speaking of which, I wonder if they're actually gonna animate more of Hajime no Ippo. It's like, they already animated the best parts... there might not be a need. Maybe some OVAs of a few crucial fights leading up to the eventual ending? Skip past all the other stuff. shrug.

As for Chihayafuru, definitely not an anime I'd recommend to someone who's only watching sports anime because of baseball. I rabu Shinobu and Kana-chan though.

I could be wrong I don't really watch sports anime. Other than Free! and Chihayafuru I have no experience with other ones you guys mention like Hajime no Ippo and Diamond no Ace. How would you say they differ?

On a Chihayafuru related note. In the romance aspect of it, its like the complete opposite of oblivious-male-MC trope where its just the girl thats just a complete dumb fuck instead.

They don't. Just that far as uta and my opinions were concerned, that it was a sports manga made for most of the unbearable parts of Chihaya. Simply amused to see someone who'd recommend it as one.

Well no shit. She is the mc of a sports manga that pretends to be shoujo.

I thought that was already established a while back lol

I know.

I just see him talk and recomend it in every single post goody's been making in the last 7 days or so

His Haruhi is my Toradora if that makes sense lol. Given, I recommend it only when asked and not at random

we are probably not the same level of passion towards the show .. i mean how could you not recommend toradora every damn time ! hell i'd even recommend haruhi even if someone asks a totally different type of anime

You're lumping all hentai together by saying stuff like "not enough effort put into the production value of animated porn." Also by saying all shows that are "pretty ecchi" are bad.

There are good things out there! You probably just don't like them 'cause your eyes are clouded by titsbias and you can't see past titsit to enjoy them.

Case in point: Highschool of the Dead. Any man who does not like this show is a filthy boob-hating heathen.


I must be a filthy boob-hating heathen then. I dropped the show due to the terrible ecchi-fanservice element the show overemphasized.

Any show that is pretty ecchi is terrible. I can't think of a single show that has any quality that is so ecchi focused.

I think what slaugther meant is that usually shows with ecchi element are terrible. And i also agree with him. Sometimes ecchi really ruins the mood of watching the show. Great example would be HoTD. Sorry soumna i gotta agree with bigfan and slaughter here.

Wow bigfan actually hates something that is not FMP. News for me.

Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou 12 was great, had some really nice scenes. I liked that the humor remained stable in that it was solid all the way through. Ritsu's VA was great in this role but Mayumi I liked best lol.

It's Hanakana if you didn't know. Shows pretty good. The only show that i did follow through religiously that is not manga. Is it just me or somehow we are agreeing on everything slaugther. Our interests in anime somehow is lining up lol.

He wasn't even saying that "Any show with ecchi is terrible", and you don't even believe that yourself seeing as how you like stuff like IS and Macross Frontier, so stop being a yes man.

maybe not every show but some shows. What? Macross Frontier never had ecchi in it on the level of Dragonar >.> As for IS, I already said way back that I hated certain episodes (aka the birthday part one for instant) so just because I watch an anime with some ecchi in it, doesn't mean I automatically approve of everything thrown at me in it. I liked the girls in IS and some of the mech so made it more compelling to continue watching despite some of the ecchi.

:O hey now! lol. I like the concept that NGNL is going after so naturally, I'm compelled to keep on watching it to see what happens next. I guess it's an exception like a couple of other animes in the past and not the rule. In general, I would prefer animes that I watch that happen to be ecchi (don't use check MAL tags or anything like that) tone it down to a reasonable level.
