Can anyone recommend me some anime (preferablely one-cour or less) in these categories :

» Watch an anime that focuses on non-romantic relationships
» Watch an early work of an established anime staff member (10+ roles)


you could watch free, binan koukou, Barakamon, Death Parade, Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo? all are one cour (although free has a second season)

As early works just seek a anime you where you like the ost, i watched Cossette no Shouzou and composer Kajiura, Yuki.
if you like a move you could look at Miyazaki, Hayao, most of his films are amazing like Tonari no Totoro ^^ i watched it as kid a lot
Hope you like some of them


Thank you very much. I'll watch Death Parade and an early film of Miyazaki (maybe Tonari no Totoro).

Question: I just watched season 1 and 2 of Working!!. Now if I were to complete the currently airing season 3 of Working!! would that qualify as completing the challenge of --- Watch an anime three-cours or more in length.

Edit: Nevermind, checked old queries and apparently it has to be one single entry.

Well I have a fewbquestions about this that I didn't get
1. If I start now only anime i watch after this will be counted or I can go with any i have watched this year even before I signup?
2. Only anime that start or end in 2015 counts?
3. If i have already watched an anime before 2014 then do i have to 9rewatch it to make it count or I'll have to search for another anime
4. How will it be checked weather someone actually completes the challenge? Random questioning?

1. If you want, you can use any anime you have watched this year.
2. No..? you can use any anime, regardless of when it started.
3. Why you can't just watch some new anime?
4. I don't know but probably none will check it, since it's more like challenge to yourself.

You could watch one of Miyazaki's earlier works or basically any early works of anyone who has been involved in creating more than 10 anime series/movies/ovas/etc.

I kinda realised that. Problem is there is no indication on any of the staff member pages as to when they started working, so I don't really know what can be taken as "early work" unless I go through all of the anime listed on someone's page and sort them by years.

I'll probably end up copying someone elses entry somewhere down the line.

Just go through the anime entries at hand and watch something with the earliest airing date, though it doesn't need to be the earliest. Something from the 80s or 90s would be good enough. In cases like Makoto Shinkai, early 2000s would also be fine.

There are some in which I never loose interest. Like I've watched NGNL about 18 times and there are a lot others that I have watched 2 or more times. Just asking. I guess I'll think abt difficulty and sign up on sunday. Thnx for the help.

There is one challenge for rewatching an anime, but the main point of the challenges is to watch anime that you normally wouldn't. You've only watched 185 anime so there is plenty of good anime out there that you can use for the challenges,

For the children challenge, how young qualifies?

For the non-Japanese title challenge, is it an anime that does not have a Japanese name at all or something like Overlord that has the English title on the poster but also has a Japanese name?

For the first, anyone younger than teenage qualifies, I guess. For the second, it's talking of the official title. See Death Note, Overlord, Death Parade, One Piece, etc...

I'd say fairly! Pretty open to most things, and even considered/started watching those shows. I'll go with Uchouten Kazoku most likely, since I'm kind of set that I will read the Aku no Hana manga at some point. As for Usagi Drop, I really wish I hadn't picked up the manga before finishing the show, alas, we never know what awaits us in life, haha.


General recommendations are ok too, still need stuff for some entries that I'm undecided for what I'll watch. Here's my sign up form (it's up to date), so if something interesting comes to mind for any of the non-completed entries, I'd appreciate a recommendation for it~.

I see you haven't watched Shinsekai Yori. I'll recommend that you give it a try. It has a mystery vibe to it and can get creepy at times.

Kindaichi is a mystery, that has a sequel coming up soon. Not much of a horror, though.

Hi ~ . Can I ask for a recommendation as well?

I'm looking for a title that could be considered deep, dark, and maybe a little creepy and mysterious (kinda like Paranoia Agent). Otherwise, I wouldn't mind a Josei focused on characters that are in college or older.

Thanks to anyone who might be able to help me out here (^◡^).

Okay, I am getting close to the end so now I think it is time for "Watch an anime recommended to you by another Anime Watching Challenge participant."

I'd like something I can watch on a streaming site as this will be the anime I watch at lunch for a while. Also, has to be Safe for Work.

I have Netflix, Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Amazon Prime. I'll watch something on Hulu also but I'd really prefer on the other services since I won't have to watch commercials (they take up precious time at lunch).

Thanks!

Well... Re-Kan! has Shojo-Ai tones to it. Takes a while for it to really get going, though. While it doesn't have Shojo-Ai tones, Working!! is a very good slice of life that you could try. Similarly, there's Servant x Service which was made by the same guy.

I suggest you check out xxxHolic. Just in case you don't know anything about it, the series is mainly about a high school guy who works part-time for a witch in return for her protection from ghosts. Sounds simple, but the story gets complicated and I don't want to say anymore for fear of spoiling something. It's mainly supernatural and philosophical with mystery and comedy mixed in. I'm recommending it based on your completed list and scores.

Another suggestion for you is Lunar Legend Tsukihime. This is supernatural/mystery with complications and a bit of craziness well done. In fact, I would suggest this one for you more than xxxHolic based on your list xD

Try (one of) these:
Xam'd: Lost Memories. It's an anime original, so isn't shonen but has action in it.
C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control. 11 Episodes and another anime original. Does have action, but has an interesting spin on it.
Giant Killing. 26 episodes and Seinen. It follows a football team rising from the graves. Great anime, imo.
Kino's Journey: They Beautiful World. Has a movie prequel, though I'd say you can watch this first. It's very... down-to-Earth is the best way I can describe it.
