| I feel like Infinite Rvyus is a really unique anime with an awesome setting. |
TheServant said: RedRoseFring said: None. The world and setting is inextricably attached to the story. Not always. I am sure you will see how both of them are two separate things overtime. Nope. For all the series I've watched, if the story didn't interest me, the world couldn't interest me either. The world as an individual factor can pull some consideration, but not much if the story doesn't work accordingly. |

| Fate/Zero, I was far more interested in how magic and its users affected the world than I was in the holy grail war. Shinsekai Yori, didn't care much for the characters, but I wanted to learn about mankinds faye outside of their little plot of land. Obviously Pokemon. |

leNerd said: Yes you should try the light novels. They are superior in every aspect and you won't be disappointed with the explanations of the magic-science system. If anything you might feel a lil overwhelmed with how detailed and complicated the system really is.Tel3 said: Mahouka. The world-building is glorious, and while the story itself is rather weak, the concepts introduced in the Mahouka universe are really interesting. and the girls Okay so i have a question about this. When i was watching mahouka, i was confused on how much time and exposition they spent on explaining how the magic in it works. But to me it always seemed absolutely goofy and unintentionally funny. Kinda like a explanation in star trek it just sounded like gibberish "the flux compensator creates a anti gravitanional hyperdrive that alters the tine continuum in a crossdimenional blablabla" Then when i read the episode discussion threads the people who read the light novel were always shaming the anime for its poor representation of how the magic works. Is the world in mahouka really that interesting? To me it appeared more like a "this works because overpowered main character wants it to" I really like magic-systems that go into detail and make sense within their own rules, like for example the force in star wars. Should i read the light novels? |

It's okay to smirk |
| Sword Art Online, but also Pokemon. |
CapitalistGod said: where'd you find the katawa shoujo gif?The various game "worlds" of the two Sword Art Online shows. Too bad, the world building on that show is atrocious. Though, Log Horizon gave me that game "world" fix I need months after... (Thanks for nothing, SAO!) Also, i think the world-building wasn't as atrocious,as much as it was just copying other caught-in-game series, except maybe the few fantasuy-elements |
| It's okay to smirk |
| One Piece, Magi, and Toriko I like HxH world too but the story are much more interesting. |
| Psycho-Pass - loved the cyber-punk setting, although the storyline was entertaining enough. Claymore - wanted to learn more about the world outside the continent. Fate/series - couldn't care less about the Holy Grail War, but I was interested in the idea of an urban-fantasy world. |

 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| Zero no Tuskaima, fuck the story and the two main characters. But the world and setting were interesting. |
| Sword art online.. I want to dive into a world like that and have it be more about action and fighting and strategy and less about crying teenagers. |
| 私はサイタマ様が大好きです。私は彼の雌犬です！ |
Oh man, Magi, yess. I crave anime with arabian themes/settings, and Magi was so nice to look at, but the story never grabbed me. :c |
 |
| Highschool DxD. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).. |
TheServant said: Isn't the setting a run-of-the-mill fantasy? It had that Harry Potter kinda feeling to it being a school for magic and all. I'm kinda into that stuff. |
| Shinsekai Yori. I found the main girl quite obnoxious and I can't say any character grew on me. Anyway the setting was definitely interesting and the reason I kept watching. |
| There are just too many mysterious and creepy things in Pokémon. For example: "Shedinja's hard body doesn't move - not even a twitch. In fact, its body appears to be merely a hollow shell. It is believed that this Pokémon will steal the spirit of anyone peering into its hollow body from its back." HOLY SHIET |
| Full Metal Alchemist. It's probably because i'm watching Brotherhood for the first time but the attention the creators have given to the world is quite impressive. But i hate the humour and dislike most of the characters so something needs to keep the show interesting. |
  |
| Mushishi, which is a problem because it means the characters didn't get developed. If I care more about the setting, it's probably a sign the story or the characters don't work. |
| WEAPONS - My blog, for reviews of music, anime, books, and other things |
| So Ra No Wo To defenntly, shame they went o the route of CGDCT rather than explaining well how the war was or how that world worked, it would have been such a cool anime if they did that... |
 |
| Shinsekai yori, especially after the big 'reveal' in the last episode. Who knows, maybe I'll pick up the original novel someday and get more into it. |
| i still prefer digimon world over pokemon |
| internet is a cruel mistress |
| Shinsekai Yori. It has one of the most interesting worlds I've seen. (so far.) |
 |
| Sword Art Online, Attack on Titan, and Deadman Wonderland |
 |
| Toriko, well it'll pretty much stay the same even without a main goal anyways. virtual reality like overlord and sao, but with even better immersion. |
 |
| Shinsekai Yori. The story is good, but the world is very interesting especially the events that transpired from now to when the anime takes place. Which is about 1,000 years from now. |
| An anime that would fit the criteria for me would probably be Spice and Wolf. I really loved the medieval setting and atmosphere but didn't really care much for the story. It's more of getting engrossed in the setting rather than the story that takes place in it. |
| Psycho-pass Mahouka Charlotte Also Attack on Titan to an extent (*don't shoot me*)...although I really like the series, both the story and characters aren't particularly unique. We have the formulaic "angry-protagonist-seeks-revenge-against-enemy-who-ruined-his-family-and/or- life-and-luckily-has-some-weird-power-to-help-him-achieve-his-goal". Really, it's the world of AoT itself that makes the anime stand out against others of its genre. |

| Mushi-shi and Bakemonogatari series =) I love those mysterious form of life in mushi-shi and for Bakemonogatari I like people that are specialist. |

| pokemon, SAO, No game no life their story bored me to death but the world there's pretty amazing |
“The greatest crimes in the world are not committed by people breaking the rules but by people following the rules. It's people who follow orders that drop bombs and massacre villages.” -Bansky  |
| K-Project: The world is just beautiful.. buildings, scenery, even characters - but the story was non-existent. |
| I would like to be in a world where the only way to survive is to master 3 dimensional gear and become a badass person that is trapped in the walls full of monsters. Yesh, I am a bit of a masochist. But, the world of attack on titan was just so beautiful. |
 |
| Strike the Blood. Yes I'm serious. I love watching anything with SciFi, fantasy, or supernatural elements to it and the show had all 3 and I'd love to hear more about the other 3 Progenitor's domains. |

kuuderu said: Sakasama no Patema The story is actually set between two worlds one of which is upside down. And it's quite fascinating setting, just watch trailers by the link I've posted. Well, i just wanted to post this, i agree. The world is really Bizarre and beautiful. The whole upside down aspect really caught my attention and not gonna lie i even felt dizzy just by looking and imagining at the 'height' scenes when they fall to sky and such. Another one maybe the upper world at Texhnolyze. Looks really like a truly peaceful world but human race actually suffer and moving closer toward extinction. |

| Sword Art Online, obviously. Weak, weak, disappointing story. But the idea of a complete virtual-reality game... |
