I’ve been wondering if you could recommend some good anime for me to watch. (I’ve already seen Niko Nya-Nya, Senpai wa Otokonoko, and Onimai: I'm Now Your Sister!.)

@UsualCat
didnt know about mahou shoujou site, synopsis about a mysterious website appearing on the laptop reminded me of jogoku shoujo: https://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=228 which at the time did enjoy lots
didnt see shinmai dan DXD but highschool DXD a long time ago, was aight :P
artstyle of tapokii no genzai looks great, might check it when got time :3

and idk, i guess lately more into good animations and whatnot (hence solo leveling or the season 1 of OPM) rather than like a specific genre i guess

@gangar try to rewatch the dxd and shinmai was peak on current day. as brain develop we understand more of the story... deep inside me wanting the author to continue hagure yuusha story, sadly they seems cancelled, and the source isn't developed anymore. its rare to see story come close with those 2, the earlier stage was so heavy til the point they can had almost any outcome. sadly seems the author give up at the point no one seems interested, while in international stage, alot of fan waiting it.... just like no game no life (season 2 is myth, since the author afraid to dissapointed the fan, he said S1 was too good, so he afraid if the quality of next season its not as good as the first)

Samurai Champloo is a 10/10 series.
The music is so good and the animation aesthetic is as good as it gets.
Big recommendation if you like Cowboy Bebop. Same director.

I can't recomend anything because nothing has maintained consistent quality for its whole run. Everything starts great then turns to shit. One (heh) obvious example is One Punch Man, which had a God-tier 1st season, mediocre 2nd season, and the 3rd season was so bad I quit watching. I watch more anime recaps than anime these days.

I guess Cowboy Bebop was pretty good.

Only Animes worth watching are the old skool ones

Cowboy Bebop all the way.

But besides that stop watching these japanese cartoons man...pure programming. Besides the old skool animes and movies...modern japanese cartoons have created a whole generation(s) of womanized men. There's a reason they're pumping out so many games and animes these days...mostly funded by the CCP.

@BraveSmoke Cowboy Bebop is a show that even anime haters can agree is great.
I feel the same way about Champloo.
The aestetic is just cool. You can't watch an episode and say "only nerds watch this".
edit: I think the music has a lot to do with this, for what it's worth. The juxtaposition of anime with hip hop or jazz just werks.

@fantuan Use qBittorrent and its search engine feature; take the time to set up Jackett for it and you will almost always find what you're looking for. Nyaa alone is too limiting.

To find decent releases, https://www.releases.moe is a good starting point.
To check whether you've watched everything in a given show, check out https://anidb.net

Don't watch ongoing anime or you'll be stuck waiting for the new seasons.
Don't listen to any dubs, subtitles are always superior (fight me).
Try to get the best quality possible. You will regret watching a good show with bad video or audio. As such, avoid streaming and look for bluray rips.
Look for FLAC for audio and roughly 1-1.3GB per episode; This is a rough rule of thumb to get a good video encode. If you see a rip with similar file sizes on each episode (eg.: All exactly 1GB) then the encoder likely compromised quality for file size, avoid these.

Here are my recommendations:

  • Non Non Biyori
  • Owari No Seraph
  • Mashiro No Oto
  • Prison School
  • Your Lie In April
  • Cowboy Bebop
  • Gurren Lagann
  • Bocchi The Rock!
  • Violet Evergarden

Most of these benefit a lot from a good audio setup.
Enjoy!
