"Bungaku Shoujo" Movie

Books, libraries and more:

- readers & bibliophiles
- writers & publishers
- book stores & bookselling
- libraries & library themes
- books & mysteries

Although none of these anime have a tag/theme that denotes them as psychological, they all use cinematographic tactics often seen in psychological media to explore different aspects of the human condition and tackle atypical and philosophical topics.

This is a list of non-Ghibli standalone movies - meaning they are not associated with a TV series

Part 1: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/8562

Anime that portray characters heavily influenced by words. This could be anything from a librarian, a writer, editor, etc.

As well as characters who have troubles with speech, writing, or using words to express themselves properly.

Some anime listed may be included because the book / words themselves take on a life of their own.

Basically anything related to the subject will be included.

Please feel free to contact me if there are any more anime that need to be added. Thanks!

~~~Honorable Mention~~~
- Junjou Romantica, novelist
- Tokyo Ghoul, avid reader
- Mysteria Friends, magical books
- Gosick, Library
- Shadows House , notes and diaries

100% purity here! Not a single bit of nonsense relating to sex!

I can't believe I had such a hard time making this stack >:'[ I'm a poor Christian boy


((If you find anything here with a sex joke please contact me immediately I want this place to be a light in the ecchi-filled darkness ahaha))

I created this interest stack to show you some of the gems that are hidden here, it's not always easy to find these animes or get a recommendation to watch some of them, I hope you like them as much as I do, thank you for those who read this far and good anime.

I am updating these at the beginning of every month.

Part 1:
https://myanimelist.net/stacks/33077

Underrated Anime Movies or OVA or Short Films or Short Animated Videos (could be a really great music video).
I have another Interest Stack for Underrated TV series, check 'em out: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/29279

Another Animated Music Video that I cannot include in the list is "Living in a world without magic" by Euluca Lab (an indie studio on YT). I found its page on MAL but somehow I can't add to either my watch list or this stack, kinda suck.

The Arts are made up of three types: Performing Arts (Music, Dance, Theater, Cosplaying, Acting, etc.), Visual Arts (Painting, Drawing, Film Making, Animation, Video Game Creation, Photography, etc.) and Literary Arts (Novel/Light Novel Writing, Manga/Doujin Writing, Lyric Writing, Journalism, Magazines, Editing, Dictionary Writing, Ghost Writing, etc.). While Performing Arts and Visual Arts have tags on MyAnimeList, Literary Arts do not, so this interest stack is rectifying that. Literary Arts have a long history with anime like the other two art forms, so this includes a wide variety of them. It may also include some that are about being passionate for literature rather than writing itself. Some series are excluded if they lean more towards Performing Arts or Visual Arts than Literary Arts, such as Kodocha, Saekano or The Pet Girl of Sakurasou. While some series may have major characters who are novelists, it needs to have Literary Arts be an important aspect of the plot in order for it to be included. Also, there will only be one series per franchise for the sake of variety.
