Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt

If you've got a few minutes or an hour to spare make them worthwile by watching an episode of these anime.

These shows and Ovas have episodes that are mostly self contained and you get a full story in under an hour at maximum so you can watch them without having to commit to watching multiple episodes in one sitting.

Sounds like a good deal right?

I'll pobably make a part 2 cause there's a lot more good episodic format anime out there that did not make it here.

some real cracked out stuff that makes you go "wtf?!"

these kind of anime are my jam

Titles featured in this stack showcase a wide variety of stylizations, ranging from simplistic character designs to surrealistic masterpieces, making it stand out among others in its uniqueness and artistic diversity. This diverse range of expressive and imaginative art styles adds an extra layer of intrigue and visual appeal, enriching the viewing experience and may leave a lasting impression on the viewer.

These are main characters that have blue hair and blue eyes, no transformation, no eye change, no hair change.

A stack of anime with interesting artstyles & character designs that I think stand out from the norm or are just iconic enough to be memorable/recognizable.

These are mostly judged based on the way the characters are drawn, not the animation & coloring of the scenes (but those things are also considered if they really give the show a different feel from that alone)

Not included here are chibi/mini-style anime since they're rather common and not really a stand-out artstyle by now. With some exceptions!

Includes all* anime on the Anime+/GRAPH mahou shoujo/magical girl achievement list

Notes:
If the anime is saved under a different name in the original list (and the ID matches), the listed title is added as a comment. The anime will keep its place according to the list - even if it will no longer be alphabetically correct according to its main title on MAL. This is to make the job of checking and updating these much easier for me.

*The main stacks do NOT include hentai. This is both for people who want to avoid it, and because including it will significantly limit the stack. Please proceed to the Hentai Edition™ in the list below if you're into that.

These anime have no time to lose and try to cram the most they can in the least amount of time possible, maybe forgetting one detail or two among the way. Blink and you miss it. Secondary effects might include: Feeling like you watched more chapters than you actually watched.

As with the slow paced stack, some of these are tagged as such in AniDB, some others are from my experience watching them.

I am only adding the first season/entry of each franchise, unless a particular entry is fast paced like Fairy Tail's final part

For people scared of speed here is the slow version https://myanimelist.net/stacks/33443

Here are some works that explores concepts/themes that may have some ground on the queer theory narratives like identity, power, desire, sex, gender, etc. They’re mixed with other societal problematics such as colonialism, politics, race, class, dispositives of control, institutionalization, etc. Thus they’re intersectional-queer animes.

I try showing stories that have some queer stuff on them but also go beyond the typical romance drama, so no BL o yuri or wathev, i try to evade basic Queerbaity-ones from the fujoshi’s realm like Free! or SK8.

P. S I: These works are date from the 2000’s onwards. I have another one for the ones below the 2000´s, and one for the very best, check them!
P. S II: Some series here have sequels, prequels, movies or spin-offs. It´s up to you to search, yass kween slay.

This Interest Stack is directly inspired by Digibro's "250 Anime Recommendations". Everything listed here is directly taken from the original video.

------
The reason to create this stack was to not make anyone sit through a 6-Hour long video. (Note that the original video is over 7 years old so some Ratings and Episode and Season count may be outdated).

------
This is only Part 1 of the 250 Anime recommendations list (Separated in parts because of MAL's 50 entries per list limit).

------
In the words of Digibro herself: "I'm also going to state how much i recommend these show's, So the minimum will be a light recommendation meaning something that i dont necessarily think is amazing but its worth checking out if you're bored, Not all of these are gonna be like 10/10 classics. Some of these are gonna be like OK shows that are just worth checking out. Maybe you'll like it more than i did."

------
* = Light recommendation
** = Medium recommendation
*** = Strong recommendation
**** = MUST-WATCH

------
Here are how these anime are categorized (In Order)

DRAMA : Aoi Bungaku Series - Simoun

COMEDY : Arakawa Under the Bridge - Cromartie High School

SUSPENSE : Gankutsuou - Young Black Jack

TEEN MELODRAMA : Air - Clannad (Continued in Part 2)

Some of these shows changed my life, some made me piss my pants in laughter, and others were just flat out fucking amazing. If you are looking for something to watch, you are guaranteed to find at least ONE great show in here.

what the fuck did u smoke when u decided to make this anime?

While there are plenty of old mangas that have the specific Emo-Punk art style or themed, there are not so many in anime.
I tried to look it up myself and couldn't find a list Emo-Rock-Punk themed anime, besides the popular ones that everyone knows like Death Note and NANA.

The "Emo" or "Punk" in this Interest stack is defined by the characters' outfits, their lifestyles or their surroundings (the setting era).
Cyberpunk, Steampunk, Lolita excluded.

Honorable Mention: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

Anime that either has a lot of fanservice, or is classed as ecchi or erotica.

When I say visually insane, I'm not talking about anime with high quality animation, I'm talking about the ones that have chaotic, psychodelic, stylized, experimental and overall unusual styles.
If a show has multiple seasons I'll just add the first one.
