| Things that aren't in schools. I was thinking the other day that the only anime that I can think of that takes place in a circus is Kaleido Star. Technically the beginning of Nadia is, but I mean an anime where it centers around circus life. I wouldn't mind seeing more if they are done well. As for themes, I'd like to see more anime about what happens after you die (according to the respective anime world). Haibane Renmei and Angel Beats fit, but again... it's more rare. |

| Would love to see a series that follows the life of a character that is a professional athlete or taking part in anything high level sport related, starting from a young age and following throughout his youth/adulthood.Not just in high school. Similar to how Major was except with more realism and not so much forced drama. |

| More series centered around politics, but we won't be getting that in a million years. |
| new things are not usually good like ZnT this season, it is considered as 1 of the best this summer, but it is believed to have poor sales, because Japanese thinks its surrounding around terrorists as an insult to their country |
| A pessimistic, introverted male lead in school. It's interesting to hear their monologues. |

Hopefully Kuroko No Basket goes this route after High School Basketball and shows the main characters in a professional league like the NBA. Kuroko no Basket isn't realistic. |
| The Legend of Koizumi needs a proper anime, stat. inb4 ovas |
| A dark romance anime. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |

Kuroko no Basket isn't realistic. You're telling me that they don't have magic in real life Basketball? Bullshit, I refuse to believe it. |
| I'd like more mature slice-of-lifes like the manga series Deep Love; where it shows the depressive reality of people in Japan (in particular, girls and their reason for prostitution and for getting into the drug scene-- and an attempt to clean themselves up but something happens), something like how Jigoku Shoujo shows a story of one person each episode and how they suffer and how they want revenge. (I've seen Welcome to the NHK already and I loved it) |
| Super robots and a lot more slice of life that is not about japanese people or present times. |

| I'd want to see anime with more serious topics and which are more authentic. It doesn't always have to be super cute or funny, I'm more the fan of realistic anime. |

LOL Ok sorry for the immature response,but Kuroko No Basket is in no way shape or form realistic or has enough hindsight to go that way. Its 1 step away from being DBZ in basketball form,maybe if they would stop milking the whole "The Generation of Miracles" thing already it could actually start going somewhere... |
| I WANT - A good post-apocalyptic anime - College romance drama - More gangs/mafia anime - A historical anime with real life figures - More anime set in the west ( NOT japan ) - MORE MORE AND MORE Dark psychological thrillers |
| I want more satires like Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei that poke fun at the way culture has developed. Going along with that, more political satires. Less harems with flat chicks showing off their zettai ryouiki, panties, and disproportionate boobs to a boring male. |
| The life of working adults. I know of stuff like Hataraki Man, Bartender, and Ristorante Paradiso, but I can't think of anything else. |
| A cyberpunk story with adult characters (please, unless it's new Lain: no teen-hackers living in a basement). A good detective series, with deduction, police work and no supernatural / deus-ex-machina case solving. And some post-apo would be nice. |
| - |
| -some more natural disaster anime -serious attempt at zombie apocalypse *like you said |
 |
| Serious or demiserious sci-fi, detective, post-apocalypse would be nice as a setting, I guess. Also some -punk settings: dieselpunk or cyberpunk, maybe biopunk. Even fantasy has some untapped potential, actually. Just, please, no shool, not even magical shool, not mecha shool too. I'd like to see more adult characters. As for the topics - I am a fan of psychological stories, with psychological stuff visualized. I'd watch almost anything about a person with psychological problems, that don't make him stronger or not only make him stronger but actually hinder his everyday life. |

| I would like to see more sci-fi set in the near future, possibly apocalyptic, with a convincingly detailed world, and loaded with social/political commentary presented through multi-layered metaphors and idealogical/philosophical conflitcs. Like Mars of Destruction. |
| Sieg Zeon! |
| Eating Disorders There isn't even ONE serious Anime about it. Also, I wish for more adult characters (that also LOOK like adults)... Some where they don't just add two wrinkles around the mouth and that makes them 60 years old. >.> |
If life ain't just a joke Then why are we laughing? If life ain't just a joke Then why am I dead? |
| I want more historic anime. |
| More cyberpunk is always welcome. |

xstina0314 said: deadoptimist said: ... YES. Currently, I'm going into the classics: Boogiepop, Paranoia Agent, etc. Not to say I don't enjoy the school life/slice of life here and there but, I'd prefer to see more animes like Psycho Pass or the like come through. Animes that really make you think, have you sitting down for deep discussions, that's anime worth remembering. Have you seen Himitsu: Top Secret, or Mouryou no Hako? |
| Sieg Zeon! |
| Hardcore kite flying |
A stupid thread deserves a stupid answer!  |
| There isn't any anime about a world that is completely clockwork as if electricity was never discovered Something like pirates of the Carribean Journey to the center of the earth or hidden world under the earth type things Supernatrual comedies Not serious at all. Like ghostbusters |
 |
| More psychological stuff in general. I want to see more characters faced with mental/emotional challenges instead of physical ones. Also more shows that show more strategic/tactical stuff because I really enjoy series that show battles from those perspectives. |
| This might be a weird one: I want a serious, down-to-earth, clusterfuck of a relationship. Where two people, not-giving-fuck of their gender, are flat-out physically and mentally abusive towards each other to the point where they both just wanna rip each other's head from the necks. But, at the same time, they remember as to why they even started the relationship. They have these short glimpses into why they yell at each other day and night and still choose to stay together. I think it'd throw a nice spin to those people that say "well, if it's abusive, just leave her/him". Also, I really want to see anime that deals with drug-abuse, serious mental disorders (bi-polar, MPD, schizophrenia etc.). So ... yeah. Dark shit. Sorry. |
 |
| More tragedy, I enjoy happy shows as much as next person but there is a certain appeal to watching everything fall apart and result in suffering and possibly death for the characters. |

Drug abuse as a center of story isn't my cup of tea, but mental disorders are interesting. |
