It's quite hard to recommend something, but maybe Gunsmith Cats?

Just a question to clarify the "watch anime that starts with the same last letter as your username" task: So, for me, I have to watch an anime that *starts* with K, right?

This thread seems like it could work to just move it to the recommendations subforum. Most of this is asking for recommendations.

Not sure if I asked this earlier or if I did, whether someone answered or if they did, what they said. I don't have a favorite Seiyuu, what do I do? Just for the record, I do find it easier to recognise Miyano Mamoru and Fukuyama Jun's voices by name (others are by character), so I'm just throwing that in there.

Pick the seiyuu of one of your favourite characters.

Now that I think about it, I think that was the answer I got.

What counts as seeing something from a studio/director? If I've only watched 33 minutes of anime from a studio (mostly dropped) could that count as a studio I haven't seen anything from or do I have to be a complete virgin to their work?

I would assume that you'd have to have never seen anything by them. If you dropped something 30 minutes in, it'd be reasonable to say that you've heard of the studio/director and didn't like their work. It's a small sample size, but since the unit of measurement we are using to determine if we know something or not is a watched series, I'd assume you'd have to have never watched even a minute of the work to be "not know" something

I'm currently 18 which means that I would fit into both the shounen and seinen demographics. I will most likely turn 19 before I turn my form in. Is the demographic representative of which one you fall into when you watched the anime or when you turn your form in?

I would say the time when you watch it counts.
Alternatively you could just watch a shoujo anime and not have this problem at all. ;)

Any good anime with a professional as one of the main characters?


Ace Attorney just aired yesterday, which is an anime about lawyers. the first episode was decent but not great, it was a little rushed, but the first case is really boring. It should start to pick up soon. You could also try Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun where the main character is a mangaka

I already watched Nozaki-kun, and, though the other one about lawyers you suggested sounds ok, I'd prefer a series that has already run to completion. Thanks for the response though.


Everything I linked has been completed.

Watch an anime that has a main character that is a professional in his field: Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri - [First Lieutenant]

Could anyone confirm is this a legit choice to be actually considered professional?

Watch an anime with a target demographic that can apply to you
  i.e. seinen if you're a male in his 20s or more

So I'm 19 years old. Going to be 20 in a few months. If I used a shounen now would I change it to a seinen once I turn 20?

The Japanese description of shounen is 8-18 year old male and seinen is 18-50 year old male. You are in the seinen demographic.

When watched preferably.

Basically that. One of those that you haven't watched anything.

What counts as completing an anime? The anime I'm currently watching has 52 episodes and aired two years ago but episode 39 has never been subbed. There was a rule about only watching subbed episodes, would this count? The episode was a recap anyway, if that changes anything. There are raws available for the episode, but apparently all of them are low quality.

If it's a recap only, just watch it raw on low quality, might have some new footage (despite being recap)
Shame it hasnt been subbed but then again ... recap that doesnt add anything most likely.

How about Mnemosyne: Mnemosyne no Musume-tachi for Shoujo ai? I watched it for the challenge it was a decent anime (and its Horror as well). I have no experience with shounen ai though.

Horror/Thriller/Seinen:
Hellsing Ultimate
Monster
Mononoke
Ayakashi: Japanese Classic Horror
Rainbow: Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin

As for shounen ai, you could try Love Stage, which is rather good and not-yaoi-fan friendly comedy. If you would prefer something shorter than that and with more serious tone, there's Hybrid Child, with quite interesting story.

Horror/Thriller/Seinen:
Kuuchuu Buranko
Ghost Hunt
Akira
Mirai Nikki
Bokurano (doesn't have the tags, but it's a serious psychological story, I think you could enjoy it)

Did it focus on relationships that weren't romantic? Judging by the cover it looks like it would. Just for reference, pretty much all moe anime and sports anime fit this category.
