Anime Recommendations (Living Doc)
Posted on Sun 27 November 2022 in Anime
So here's list of anime recommendations. I'll be updating this every now and then.
Some from "The Criterion Collection"
Samurai Champloo - Crunchyroll
About samurai and hip hop. Music slaps. RIP Nujabes.
Cowboy Bebop - Crunchyroll
About space cowboys, bounty hunting, and there's a cute corgi. Music also slaps.
Carole & Tuesday - Netflix
About two girls trying to make it in the music industry. Same universe as Cowboy Bebop. Music definitely slaps.
Akira (movie) - Hulu Plus
It's kinda gory, but it's a classic!
Every Ghibli Movie - HBO Max and wherever else you can find it
They're masterpieces. 'nuff said.
The Eccentric Family - Crunchyroll
This show is pretty interesting and about tanuki. Fantasy set in contemporary times.
Recently Hot Stuff
Spy x Family - Crunchyroll
Great show to watch with the family.
Chainsaw Man - Crunchyroll
Don't watch with your family! LOL
It's the highlight of its season.
Ya Boy Kongming! - HiDive
Reverse Isekai. Fun show to watch, music's not bad. Some great rap and hip hop as well. About people trying to make it in the music industry. Kongming's a great character.
Call of the Night - HiDive
About vampires and a teenager that discovers their world. Music slaps IMO.
Raven of the Inner Palace - Crunchyroll
Romantic Chinese show about a consort and a new emperor where the consort mostly deals with ghosts and curses and stuff. Supernatural. Very pretty show.
Serious Stuff
Shadows House - Crunchyroll
Interesting mystery-filled anime. Just go in blind. Pretty good show IMO.
Made in Abyss - HiDive
Gory anime, I honestly stopped after a while because I couldn't take it anymore. However, I still recommend people try it out and see if it's for them.
Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju - Crunchyroll
Great show, recommended for mature-minded audiences. Period drama with some really good Rakugo as well. Music slaps.
Victorian Romance Emma - Crunchyroll
Period romantic drama set in England. It's very charming, and the author is an Anglophile, so be prepared for interesting minute details.
Another - Crunchyroll
Thriller anime. Great if you like spooky stuff.
Boogiepop and Others - Crunchyroll
Supernatural mystery anime set in Tokyo. I don't know how to best describe it, but it's pretty good.
More Light-Hearted Stuff
Kaguya-sama - Crunchyroll
Multiple seasons. Really good and funny rom-com. Music slaps.
Horimiya - Crunchyroll
Cute boy-meets-girl story and about their classmates as well. Must-watch if you're into romance.
Poyopoyo - Crunchyroll
Great for kids and people with short attention spans! Cute cat.
Konosuba - Crunchyroll
Isekai. Very funny show, I highly recommend this one.
Laid-Back Camp - Crunchyroll
About high school girls camping. Very relaxing and educational.
Ghost Stories (dubbed) - Crunchyroll
If you're gonna watch this, watch the English dub. It's pretty funny.
Flying Witch - Crunchyroll
Real light-hearted fun anime about a witch in the countryside of Japan. If you want to just relax and have a good time, this is the show to watch.
Sekko Boys - Crunchyroll
Short-form anime with some really funny skits. I recommend watching it if you have a few minutes to spare every now and then.
Other Gems
Chihayafuru - Crunchyroll
Multiple seasons. Really refreshing story about a card game named Karuta and the development of the characters in the story about it.
March Comes in Like a Lion - Crunchyroll
Drama about Shogi players. It can be pretty melancholic and uncomfortable at times, but the story is really good IMO.
ODDTAXI - Crunchyroll
Mystery drama, pretty good. Full of animal characters. Don't get spoiled! 10/10 writing.
The Perfect Insider - Crunchyroll
Pretty good murder mystery, music slaps.
