MAL Secret Santa Gift '21
[🎁] Somali to Mori no Kamisama [05/06/2022— 05/10/2022]
[_]__I am an absolute sucker for these kinds of show. So heartwarming and bittersweet at the same time. I absolutely cried during the last episode. I did find some parts to be a little bit cheesy, but [_]__overall the mood of the entire show was great. I also really liked the world building and would love to see even a spin off series if we can see more of the world that Somali and Golem are [_]__traveling through.
[🎁] Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou [05/17/2022— 05/22/2022]
[_]__I enjoyed this immensely. It's nice to watch a show where you can just turn off your brain for a bit and just go with the flow. Some of the gags didn't hit home completely with me, but overall I [_]__found the show very very enjoyable. The characters really grew on me and by the end I was pretty sad to see it come to an end.
[🎁] Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin [05/22/2022 — 05/31/2022]
[_]__I had a lot of fun with this one! A very colorful cast of characters and the plot kept continuing in directions that I couldn't predict. I'm sad that there isn't a full adaptation of the LN. I guess I'll [_]__never find out the full story of Nanana's treasures (T⌓T)

Hello ownitlikeaboss!

You have this anime on your PTW list, but I'd recommend moving it up. "Somali to Mori no Kamisama" ("Somali and the Forest Spirit"). This anime has Adventure/Fantasy in it so you would enjoy it. It's a good Slice of Life anime to watch, and since you enjoyed "Kakushigoto" you would also enjoy this on. It has more heartwarming moments in it, and it will definitely tug on your heart strings. It does have a slow start, but it has great character gimmicks.

Since you listed comedy as your first genre, I'd think that comedy is your go to anime genre. I'd recommend "Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou"("Daily Lives of High School Boys") even though it's on your PTW list. The tags to this anime don't do it justice because when you see a high school, slice of life anime you'd think it'd be a rehash of a standard anime in that genre. However, it has a similar comedy style to "Asobi Asobase" and "Nichijou" (which you enjoyed based on your scores) where there are some callbacks to previous skits within the show. Similar to those animes, it is pure comedy and I really think you'd enjoy the recommendation as well.

Good news! This next one isn't on your PTW list. "Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin"("Nanana's Buried Treasure") is a pretty good Mystery/Comedy/Adventure anime. Comedy is thrown in there to keep it upbeat like with other anime with a "silly adventure". It does have the same premise in "Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai" where the ghost can't move on to the afterlife. It also has a similar theme to "No Game No Life" where the characters are put into 'games' that are life and death. Sadly, it doesn't have a second season, so it does feel like its cut short with its eleven episodes, but I hope you enjoy it, nonetheless.

Hope you'll enjoy this recommendation. Merry Christmas!

   A very interesting concept, but I felt like this show was a bit all over the place occasionally. I like the combination of magic and a modern day setting but the execution... was not great in my opinion. Overall a sorta decent show, but I feel like it could have been a lot better. Also I still have no idea what the familiars do for their masters except... cook occasionally lol

   Uniquely charming and incredibly soothing. I watched this a few episodes per day at a time and it was like a balm on my soul lol. I absolutely love all the characters as well as the world its set in. Overall, I enjoyed it immensely and I hope we get another full anime season one day.

   I actually watched the first episode of this show a long, long time ago and never got around to actually finishing it so I'm glad that this was brought to my attention again! The story was fairly interesting but occasionally some of the characters would do things that were just... pretty stupid in my opinion. This is clearly a show aimed towards kids and very much not my age group so I didn't take it too seriously and it turned out to be pretty entertaining.

   I see it can be useful for your HoF, but basically, I would recommend it anyway. When I saw it for the first time, I thought it was one of the best anime ever, and so it is, I haven’t changed my opinion yet.

   This anime has both, mystery & fantasy, but unfortunately it doesn't have Tsuda. Nevertheless, it's a good anime with interesting story and definitely worth your while!
