It's Boku no Pico, many of the newbies do not know of this masterpiece anymore...

Most of the 80s movies and OVAs, tbh. There's a ton of absolutely awesome anime there, back when the industry had great animators and budgets to burn on pointless naked elf warriors action bullshit (^%

those are some series that were at least decently popular in the 2000s but have been completely forgotten by most people by now, which sad because they were really good.

First, I am planning to watch. Second, I remembered it was actually still somewhat popular in 2015. But now it is completely forgotten.

If you are searching for anime to watch you should have posted on anime & manga recommendations section. Idk if I understood that right

Basically every seasonal anime which weren't doing very good and nothing famous/infamous, when new season comes people just move on and forget those anime in previous season until someone mentioned it again.

I haven't watched it but Haruhi Suzumiya and seiyuu of the MC was insanely popular back in the day yet you can barely find anyone talking about either one nowadays. Inuyasha was also one of the quite popular back in the day now though you would be hard pressed to find anyone that mentions its name when talking about isekai anime. Elfen Lied and Genshiken are some other series that come to mind that has been erased from people's memories, though in Ellfen Lied's case it could be a good thing.

I am not asking for recommendation. But I want to listen to people give their thought on what Anime which is forgotten still need to be remembered.

To be fair if you go to any anime season on this website before 2005, scroll past the first two rows of seasonal anime, I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't recognize more than one or two. A lot of seasonal anime that doesn't perform well and gets dropped for a second season often times doesn't last in the collective community's long-term memory.

For example if we go to Spring 1989, most people know about DBZ & Ranma 1/2, but how many people remember Tenkuu Senki Shurato, Idol Densetsu Eriko, or Madou King Granzort? Going to a much more recent year of Summer 2004, everyone knows Elfen Lied but scrolling down at the other premiering anime how many people honestly remember Kurau Phantom Memory, Otogizoushi, or Tsuki wa Higashi ni Hi wa Nishi ni? Probably not too many.

Every single show before 2000 or so, people's reason to not watch them is bec ause they are "old" And old means bad nowdays, damn laughable.

80s anime have this unique flair few modern shows manage to replicate. Shame most people know and watch only Dragon Ball when it comes to 80s stuff.

Vampire Knight comes to mind, back in the day, it was everywere and now? You can't even find ten ppl that remembers it.


Oh, look at all the edgy anime fans having a lagh with boku no pico.

It's all fun and games until you remember two things.

One, that those things actually happens in RL.

Two, that they made Pico into both a

fully brainwashed, indoctrinated, compliant puer delicatus.

And by the second movie into a monster, just like what happens in RL with about 80% of catamites.

I know what I'm talking about here, many moons ago, I was a puer delicatus/catamite.

I didn't end up becoming a monster, but back then I did things that I still regret to this day.

I still suffer amongst many things the last remnants of their brainswashing techniques.

To this day, I still see 3 of those POS has a type/kind of a father figure.

From one of them I learned how to drive a car, change a flat tyre, change the oil, how to shave etc.

From another one I learned to go camping, set the tent up, build safe fire pit, fishing, hunting, prepearing the carcass, canoeing etc.

And from the last one, I learned how to make money, the legal way and pay the bare minimum of taxes and were and how to invest said money.

I think Initial D is quite forgotten. Not only because it's an old anime but it's also a niche anime, not everyone is gonna have the time of their lives just watching cars racing for several episodes.

And I think the animation could be a turn-off for some people as well. It's quite ironic in my case, I love the bad CG of cars in Inital D First stage so much that I hated to watch the hand-drawn cars from Fourth stage and onwards, IDK man the CG cars just look incredibly cool to look at.

Noein is probably the best time travel anime in existence but people barely remember it. Terra e... is another solid space opera that doesn't get the attention it deserves.

I was going to say this when I read the title, used to be very popular

Time to make Shakugan no Shana popular again :D

For Crow levels of pandering, easily twlight of the dark master,mekakucity actors and also zaregato feels slept on at least to me these days. Also special mention to Kaori Yuki's stuff as well 2.

Tamayura is one of the best iyashikei anime out there, and for some reason, almost nobody has heard of it.

I already watched that anime last year, it isn't really forgotten.

Mainly due to a YouTube channel promoting old Anime to viewers.
