Just doing a general study on changing tastes and desired ratio of particular pieces that make an anime : Animation, OST, Storyboard and Direction, Length, Genre Preference and others you may feel are pieces to an anime.

If I could get roughly an idea of what you desire, and also maybe combinations of genres, unique and not yet present or if present not well presented, you would be excited to get an Anime Original on.

Go ahead, and share your thoughts.
What do you modern viewers of this new generation of anime upon us, desire ?

More pets and yokai themed anime. Also, all-female cast ecchi, like Harukana Receive, Queen's Blade or Strike Witches.

A long running idol show similar to Aikatsu! or PriPara would be nice as well.

I second @Serafos's vote for yokai! Anything similar to the countless incarnations of Gegege no Kitaro would be fire.

Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.

What i desire now is the same as i've always desired, an anime featuring an all-female cast of scantily clad women dressed in swimsuits or bikini armors in a fighting tournament or a battle royale of all previous bikini armor girls from the past (kinda like smash bros à la Majokko Daisakusen).

The animation should be decent (not looking for sakuga or slideshows), OST should be melodic and symphonic, Storyboard and Direction could be action oriented, length is 24 episodes minimum, genre is preferably ecchi.

I thought we could never see that lad

Pets or yokai oriented anime ; I have not indulged myself into any pet anime, but yokai is absolutely something that would be great to see given some love by a few studios

All-female cast ecchi : Serafos, you my friend, may truly be ahead of our time. DAZZLING

Idol shows: An absolute illiterate am I on idol shows, I believe even after all these years, ive heard of them, but havent watched even one

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts though
Cheers

Class is Class

Cant change greatness

Not that I myself have not been blessed to watch, but a respectable taste, nonetheless.

Why change something that has already been mastered, simply let it grow and give it some more color!

And thank you for your toss into the OST and direction attributes of the anime, I appreciate that. And that 24 episode length is getting real rare these days, cant lie. Gotta prove the producers with a season 1, or else you aint getting a long show, I'm not sure, just my general inference.

well thought out stories that are dark and/or weird, abstract even

psychological themes and preferably adult cast

What i would like


  • More LGBT characters in series that aren't explicitly romance titles like yuri or yaoi. I especially would like to see more good trans characters as it is rather difficult to find anywhere even in Western media
  • Better pay and working conditions to help lead to higher quality end products. This goes for both animators and translation teams
  • Less normalization of toxic relationships and relationship dynamics, as well as the things that can lead to them.
  • Better writing for female characters in Shonen (this does seem to be slowly improving though!)
  • More shoujo adaptations
  • For the love of god no more Netflix Jail
This post is brought to you by your local transfem gamer goblin. Will not tolerate bigotry and will fight against "anti-woke" sentiment to make the anime community a safer place.

My favourite genres are:

Mystery, Thriller, Sci-fi and Psychological

So possibly a show that has all of these, I want a cast of character that are a friend group, and have really good character interactions (think love is war, or my favourite anime steins;gate)

Make it's concept really unique and creative and something that I haven't seen anything like before (think made in abyss or death parade).

Make it a well paced slow burner, Get kevin penkin to do the music, and either Tachikawa, Yuzuru or Natsume, Shingo as the director. Make the main character be dubbed by john Micheal Tatum in the dub, he should also write the script for the dub.

Make the art style something realistic but also unique, think sonny boy, death parade, or steins;gate.

This one is more general, but make it well written and add a few standout episodes.


And that's my perfect anime.

@nyugvo6 "anime has none of these anymore"

Brother redo of healer meets all of these except horror, postapocalypse, cyberpunk, urban fantasy and delinquents.

And I can name hundreds of shows that have multiple of these:

Made in abyss, heavenly delusions, cyberpunk edge runners, akudama drive....

Like bro one of your listings is "demons". Are you really going to sit here and tell me with a straight face that anime doesn't have demons anymore?

Watch skip and loafer. It is literally the best trans representation I have ever seen. She is such a likable character too!

this. A lotta anime these days don't know how much to fit into the 16:9 screen as well as at which angle to present it.

Also styles like back then there used to be ALL kinds of noirs






Nowadays this type's almost extinct.

And ofc i need not mention the substances.
