| I didn't expect FMA:B to be funny, but the short jokes were good. |
| Mayoiga. It's a really funny anime. You can't help but laugh. |
 |
| Both of those have the comedy tag tho. That tag is used so liberally that I doubt there is anything without it that has anything close to comedy in it. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| It rightfully has the comedy tag, tho. Some shows without the tag that made me giggle with some lines or scenes(excluding unintentional comedy like in Osama Game, Mayoiga, Mahou Shoujo Site or SAO) Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Attack on Titan |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| But FMA:B is listed as a comedy though? Anyway, my vote would go to March comes in like a Lion and it's second season I also found shows like Akame ga Kill and Banana Fish to have some funny moments |

why would you use wiki, which has zero emphasis on anime, as a source when you're literally on the biggest and most extensive anime DB site and creating your discussion there? That makes little sense to me, but okay. I guess you can always just google until you find some site that backs up your claim, but personally I only care about the MAL DB when talking about anime on MAL because that just seems logical to me. |

Yeah of course, you wouldn't identify Fullmetal as a show belonging to the comedy genre, but it still uses comedy, that's a subtle yet crucial difference. And it's legit to give it the tag, the comedy is consistently used throughout the entire course of the series. |

| Berserk 2016 is pretty hilarious, but probably not in a way they intended, same case for boruto. |

Wikipedia has zero emphasis on Chess, but if I searched the website for information on Chess, it would provide information about Chess. "Until you find some site..." 1. It was the number one website. 2. Wikipedia is not "some site," it's notorious for information. 3. You're using a website to back your claim, too. |
Ok I know MAL can sometimes be wonky with the tags they put on shows, but using Wikipedia to figure out the genre's for anime is like writing a research paper using Quora answers Like Banana Fish has more tags than simply "crime and thriller" |

| It's definitely Ousama Game The Animation. Can't wait to S2. |
| I have no idea why Big Order doesn't have the comedy tag. |
| Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength. |
| Maybe Tensei Shitara. There's a little bit of joke, but still is 'comedy' |
 sorry by the english ;-; |

| I find a lot of the Fate anime series funny just from how absurd the stories and overall premise are on paper. I enjoy them but can never take them seriously. |
| Mad Bull 34. People describe it as so bad its good, but there's no way that stuff like the grenade jockstrap wasn't intended to be comedy. |
| The answer is always Legend of the Galactic Heroes |

In that case, comedy wouldn't be present but as @Pullman said, if you literally go to most dedicated anime db comedy would obviously be listed as a genre there As I mentioned Banana Fish is only listed with Crime and Thriller when there are clearly more genres to it |

| Basically all the trainwreck shows and/or series that have a (debatable) "serious" execution but ends being hilarious instead (whetever this is intentional or not), examples include: -Another (mostly in the last episodes, otherwise I found the series more eerie than funny) -Code Geass -Cross Ange -Highschool of the Dead -Killing Bites -Mahou Shoujo Site -Mayoiga -Ousama Game -Symphogear -Valvrave the Liberator Between much more shows. But really, anything can be considered funny by someone, since not all people have the same criteria. Even the most serious anime can be hilarious if seen by certain angle, or how it is executed. After all narm exists for something. |

| Blood-C and Another. Though Another loses a bit without the cakes memes. |

| you must be the only person on earth that thinks fma is funny smh |

| -Ousama Game was comedy of the year when it came out. -FranXX |
 |
| Lmao Golden Kamuy was funny af haha I didn't expect it to be so full of comedy when I started it lmao. |
| Kings Game, it's so bad it's hilarious. |

I'm saying it's understandable why people would find it confusing that wikipedia was used as a source instead, I'm not taking a side here. Koe no Katachi had it's funny scenes. |
ganomed said: Lol with a series as absurd as that you'd expect it to have a comedy tag. Even Shokugeki no Souma which make over the top reactions for comedy isn't listed as one.Keijo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hilarious. |
NANACHO FOR PRESIDENT |
| Konohana Kitan. at least half of the episodes are literally "first half comedy/ second half deep and thoughtful". |
| Watch Attack on Titan dubbed with a group of drunk friends and you'll have an awesome time. Seriously though the movie The Cat Returns is pretty hilarious. To the point where I was surprised it didn't have the comedy tag. |

TF2Mario said: Konohana Kitan. at least half of the episodes are literally "first half comedy/ second half deep and thoughtful". Agreed with this and add like half of the SoL shows in the database. The criterion seems arbitrary with this specific kind of series. |
| Legend of the Galactic Heroes has good jokes, even though that's not a main point. |
| Steins;gate is really funny at times and I was surprised it didnt have the tag. I am mad scientist! So cool. Sunovabiatch. |
| I don't think of Utena as a comedy generally, but its comedy episodes are amongst the funniest things I've ever seen. KaiserNazrin said: Mayoiga. It's a really funny anime. You can't help but laugh. That, on the other hand, is just 100% a comedy. Its sole purpose is to be funny. |
| jojo's bizarre adventure is fashionably hilarious and full of memeable moments |
| SukaSuka had some really nice comedy thrown in. Maybe not enough to be labeled as a comedy but it is one of those few shows I think has good comedy. Katanagatari also has some good parody esque humor in it. No genre on MAL either. Granted I feel comedy can be applied to almost any show. Very few shows have no comedy at all. |

 I don't believe in the Devil. You should. He believes in you. |
| JoJo's Bizarre Adventure had many funny moments. The Monogatari series too, despite not being its main focus. |
| Aria has some great humor. I'm more surprised with Bakemonogatari not having the tag though because that one is hilarious. |

| Keijo Golden Kamuy JoJo especially Stardust Crusaders |

I think these responses are sufficient enough And if they don't bother visiting MAL for affirmation on genre types, then why would they subsequently post a question on the forum asking about shows not listed as those genre types? |
