Basically the title says it: I'm looking for an anime that is good but underrated/unpopular. I have no real requirements for just how unpopular it is, but definitely not something in, like, the top ten.

Beyond that, I tend to prefer lighthearted, slice of life, and/or silly shows, but I'm open to pretty much anything. (bonus points if it's already on my "on-hold" or "plan to watch" list.)

Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate is quite underrated, you should give it a watch.

K isn't underrated. In fact, it's still overrated with it's current score. The only good thing K had was it's visuals.
