I need something to watch where I can sit back and relax, something where I can turn my brain my off and enjoy. Preferably on the action/shonen side. Any suggestions?

I'd really like to watch Gintama but I can never manage to sit down and watch more than a few episodes. I ended up putting it on hold and I just could never get back into it and I ended up dropping it.

Go watch ep 34-35 and then come back to this thread. I have to admit, the one you have seen aren't funny.

I'm sorry, I'm failing to see how Higurashi is relaxing and mindless, especially the first 5 episodes. Those weren't relaxing.

Unless you're trolling. I'm having a hard time separating trolls and serious people lately on MAL.

I don't mind gore but I wouldn't call the atmosphere in the first arc of Higurashi very relaxing. That one actually gave me goosebumps.

Okay,hopefully they're good cause I've really wanted to get back into the show but I didn't know what episodes were good or not, or which ones I could skip If any.

I've seen bits and parts of some random episode before, doesn't seem all that relaxing to me.

No worries, I been through the same. The reason why I watched it is because my friend was telling me for 4 months to watch that show and I needed some comedy. A lot episodes of season 1 & season 2 were a pain in the ass for me to watch (took me weeks). Feel free to ask, because there are some random eps that you could skip.

No, but seriously. Calling a series that is designed to twist your brain around through its mystery "mindless.."

Come on -Miyu-, I liked it better when your trolling consisted of telling people to kill themselves.

Edit- I just took off my shirt. COME AT ME BRAH!

If I remember correctly, you were originally looking for something mindless and action-y.

Redline is your answer.

It is very slow at the beggining, the best and interesting part comes as it keeps going. Quite a relaxing and enjoyable one, though.

Something with a little more action, also a funny one, could be Kami Nomi zo Shiru Zekai.

Now that I think about it, Slice of Life, is somewhat the definition of a relaxing anime?
