Saint Seiya

With the intention of keeping this as comprehensive as possible, I encourage anyone reading to help me find more anime and update the text, particularly of those anime I haven’t watched. You can comment this publication in my profile or send me suggestions/alternative text via PM.
----------------------------------
Para que esta lista sea lo más completa posible, animo a quien le apetezca a que me ayude a encontrar más anime y revisar/reescribir el texto que acompaña a los animes, sobre todo los que no he visto (mandadme vuestras sugerencias por MD). También podéis comentar esta lista en mi perfil.



In 1614, the Keichō Embassy arrived to Spain in their trip to Rome. When they came back after failing their mission, they came back and rested in Coria del Río (Seville) before returning to their country, and some Japanese stayed there to live. In their honour, the surname “Japón” came to be, and that marked the beginning of the good relationship between Japan and Spain, particularly Andalusia... or so we thought. Recent investigations have shown that the origin of the Japan surname doesn't come from the Keichō Embassy, but the feelings of deep friendship between the cultures was real.
Four centuries later, Spain continues to be an inspiration for the pinnacle of Japanese culture, which of course is anime. Actually… there are not that many related to Spain, are there? This stack will delve deep into anime with some sort of relationship to Spain so that you can surprise your friends with some obscure knowledge that they probably will not appreciate.
All of these anime have something to do with Spain. Due to their prevalence, references to paella specifically (it’s rice with things anyway), bullfighters with no further mention to Spain, or the simple appearance of a Spanish flag or the name of the country appearing in the background will not make it to this list. Almost every other reference is fair game.

En 1614, la Embajada Keichō llegó a España tras su viaje a Roma. Cuando volvieron de su infructuosa conversación con el papa, se quedaron a descansar en Coria del Río (Sevilla) antes de volver a su país. Algunos japoneses se quedaron a vivir, recibiendo el apellido Japón y marcando el comienzo de las buenas relaciones entre los dos pueblos, particularmente con Andalucía... o eso se creía. Estudios recientes han determinado que el apellido Japón en España no se originó con la Embajada Keichō, pero el sentimiento de amistad entre ambas culturas sigue siendo real.
Cuatro siglos después, España sigue siendo una inspiración para el máximo exponente de la cultura nipona, que por supuesto es el anime. Aunque, pensándolo bien, no hay muchos animes que se inspiren en España. En esta lista se profundizará en aquellos que sí existen para que puedas sorprender a tus amigos con trivia que muy probablemente no les interesará.
Todos estos animes tienen algo que ver con España. Debido a lo común que es, no se incluirá anime cuyas referencias se limiten a paella (o arroz con cosas, según se mire), toreros sin mayor mención al país, o banderas y/o el nombre España en el fondo de la pantalla sin mayor relevancia. Casi cualquier otra referencia es válida.

Hello everyone, I will try to list here a long list of anime that have been broadcast on French television, being as faithful as possible.

The 80s represent the very first generation of successful Japanese cartoons to land on televisions of the time.
This wave is mainly marked by the youth program "Récré A2" broadcast from July 3, 1978 until June 29, 1988 on the Antenne 2 channel.

There are also some films and series that date from before 1978 in this list but they did not have a huge impact in France, the year 1978 especially marks the arrival of Grendizer [UFO Robo Grendizer] who was a real pop-cultural tidal wave for years, which we still see its influence today. It will of course be accompanied by equally cult anime throughout the 80s and 90s.

(Sorry for some missing anime, usually it's because they're not on MAL)

(And also I'm doing this whole thread by translating it on google translate, sorry in advance for the bad turns of phrase)

one per year, and once per licence (to the best of my abilities)

This is a part of a series of stacks that are about artistic tendencies in anime (and that border the fine line between sophisticated and pretentious).

This stack is a work in progress.

The bottom 50 of the top 100 anime gathered from TV Asahi's Japan-wide survey, conducted with multiple age-groups, into the best animated series.

Anime that aired on TV Manchete, the tv channel that pioneered quality anime broadcasting in Brazil and went extinct in the 90s, yet marked the childhood of many brazilian anime fans.

In 2012, The Asahi Shimbun announced the 104 TV anime that they considered to be the most representative and memorable of all TV anime between 1963 and 2012. It's a good starting point for exploring general TV anime history, and the shows are all worth giving a shot. The list was not ranked, and ordered by release date.

If you want to boost your 'happy hormone', or just want a good engaging anime, check these out.
Of course, what works for me, may not work for you, and everybody's got a different taste and blah blah, but hey, still give it a try.

P.S: I'm not including sequels, OAVs etc or the list would be longer than it needs to be.

Self explanatory title, some anime with Latin American characters, who may just be side characters or protagonists. Also count series with characters from fictionalized versions of Latin American countries, or characters who are implied to be from Latin America without it necessarily being confirmed or a plot-point. Some or many of these may be stereotypical representations of Latin American people who some could find offensive, these are not necessarily instances of "good" representation.

Characters who are ISFJ according to the personality database

Anime shonen with a lot of fights, and principally Nekketsu.
