saxophone15 said: I was wondering...are there any romance anime shows that features a blind or deaf female? If there are no romance shows that fit that description, are there any in the drama or slice of life genres? I don't think I have seen an anime that features that type of a character, though I could be wrong and just don't remember seeing a show like that. Shion from Shion no Ou became mute after her parents were murdered. No romance from what I know. |

Cratex said: I have actually just recently played through a VN with a character like that. It's what made me want to see an anime with a similar type of character (I quite enjoy seeing actual animation). It seems my request is something that hasn't really been tapped into in the anime market.saxophone15 said: I know of a romance Visual Novel where one of the main female characters is blind.I was wondering...are there any romance anime shows that features a blind or deaf female? |
| I suddenly got in the mood for some baseball anime. So could anyone recommend me some? I'll take anything, but something a bit longer is preferred. |

Don't really care what's it about, just as long as it's good Your profile isn't much help either. I'll throw two things out that might interest you. Fate/Zero Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica (make it to at least through the third episode - if you're not aware of what this show is about it may surprise you) |

My favorites include: Mimi wo Sumaseba, Natsume Yuujinchou, Fairy Tail, Higashi no Eden, Dennou Coil, Samurai Champloo, Uchuu Kyoudai, Usagi Drop, Kimi to Boku, Un-Go, Sakamichi no Apollon, Kimi ni Todoke, Mawaru Penguindrum, Hanasaku Iroha.

| It's possible that this has been asked for, but I'm not exactly up for searching through 26 pages with the possibility of being wrong, but I'm looking for more shows that are similar to "Another" I thought that was an amazing show and because it was so short I've felt sort of empty since it ended (not that other great shows haven't come along or been discovered by me in the time since), although, if you look at my list then it won't really make sense because there are only about two other shows on it that are anywhere near similar. However, if you do want to take a look at my list to see if you can gauge my likes and give some other recommendations, that would be awesome as well. Thanks for reading. -Bans |

| Alright, here are some kind of abstract recommendations... Durarara!! is a normal show, about normal things...right? The plot twists and turns starting out as one thing and ending as something completely different. Also plenty of mystery. Higashi no Eden is a show based on a game a man forces upon people...kind of like the game the forced upon the students in Another. Wolf's Rain...just for a bit of spice. I'm not really sure why but I kept think about then while looking for anime similar to Another...like a gut feeling you know? |

NastyNecros said: I'm looking for an anime similar to Death Note. Something that has a great and smart story, with not a lot of fillers... Don't really care what's it about, just as long as it's good I don't know of anything more similar to Death Note than Code Geass. It's the same sort of deep plotting/planning, trickery, manipulation, cat and mouse type deal. Very similar main character. Code Geass might not be as "smart" though because the events that happen have a high tendency to feel so convenient to the plot that they come off as ridiculous, at least for me. But it's still very entertaining. |

Don't really care what's it about, just as long as it's good Oh, I didn't see you up there...anyways, I agree with Timofmars, Code Geass will definitely interest you. I'll also throw in Durarara!!...you won't even know what the series is about until like half way through, be patient and you will be rewarded. :-) |

Thanks Ziggy, I was reading earlier that you always recommend Durarara!!, but that's alright, I hope it's as good as your hype, I'll be checking it out soon. Thanks again! |

Thanks for the suggestions Motion, I've added them all to my list, actually, I already had Higurashi and Mirai Nikki on plan to watch, but I decided that all my suggestions I'd put on "watching" since it is the first thing I see when I look up what I want to watch, and therefore would get around to them quicker....I think I'll start with denpa teki since it's only a 2 ep OVA. -Bans |
| Haha, yea, my recommendations are pretty sporadic, I wouldn't take me too seriously :-) |
|
| anyone got any anime like fate stay night? yes i have already seen shana, zero etc. all the recomended shows...jus asking if there is any others |

| No matter how many times I see it, I still shock by these amazingly stupid recommendation..... This one is a surprise. I can't see a shred of relation for these two...i mean how can you compare a school life comedy to a mystery drama? Seem like I go off topic but anyway....I need some rec for a series with some serious twist plot and has a dark mysterious feel, with some magic/supernatural prefer, like D-gray man, Pandora Hearts, Zetsuen no Tempest. |
| AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where have you been all my life?! I was about to recommend Durarara!! but you've already seen it...I guess I'll go back in my hole. You should probably wait for another recommendation, but this one is close, I think, to what you want... Higashi no Eden. It it very dark, has plenty of mystery, and the plot twists are some of the best I've seen...unfortunately they don't have any magic or supernatural...unless you count a concierge who can get you anything you want...for a price. |

| then i would really recommend you the 3 I mention. They have good plot...and a tragedy I might add. Well, if you ever feel like it. All 3 are from manga which are still ongoing but slow. I wonder why most awesome manga always underrate and unpopular while most junk in JUMP got weekly release...or maybe that it's good because it's slow? |
| Trying out some crowdsourcing here, too~ Does anybody may know some title with "time" as a relevant element in it? "Time" as in time travel, time planes, time loops, relationships with diffrent time perception frames (i.e. one immortal or almost immortal or with frozen time and the other mere human who didn't even live half as long or so, but not too heavy into the space opera genre), playing around with time frames as by direction (Baccano-ish), rebirth, time loops or recuring (tragedy?) pattern that repeat themselves through generations (Bokurano-ish), dreamish space-distorting settings (not too much brainwrecking dementia-ish through), which don't seem to hold much of a concept of time, or genereally a title, in which a bigger timeframe elapses and which of actual importance (as in characters grow to be adults for instance). And that I have not yet watched. For some reason I get the feeling I am already through with whatever may hit into these criteria (except Higurashi and Umineko, as they have to much splatter to my taste), but perhaps there is still some hidden gem? I don't even nescessarily need subs. |

shina_luna said: Does anybody may know some title with "time" as a relevant element in it? Aria the Animation and sequels. There is some, though not a lot. It's not the main point, but it is somewhat important to the overall theme regarding the main character. I can't say more without giving away an important plot twist. Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou and sequel - it's only touched on in these four short animes based on the manga, but the perception of time of the main character relative to the supporting characters is very much central to the way the main character thinks and her thoughts and perceptions about this feature a lot in the manga. The anime are fine but only scratches the surface of the story in the manga. The manga is much better. |

| although it's a light novel, i believe it would fit your taste perfectly. http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Utsuro_no_Hako_to_Zero_no_Maria |
| i wish to watch anime like gundam seed, soukyuu no fafner or bokura ga ita . . hope you can recommnend me some best anime |
| Something like gundam seed? Easy, try gundam wing, gundam 00. Yet if you want mecha with a bit more romance like gundam seed, try Macross Frontier, Escaflowne, Zegapain, Eureka Seven. |
| @lacus_kira nothing similar to SEED more than Code Geass...just a little more serious and twist that's all. And if you care to read manga at all, I would recommend Break Blade for more plot twist, tragedy and awesomeness. Yes, it's mecha. @Shina OMG! I just notice but I can't believe you give Tsubasa manga a 3! |
shirouxOct 9, 2012 9:32 PM
3 holds for me a meaning of "great disspapointment" which results in a "Very Bad" rating. It had a promising start as I like the general idea, but dragged on like forever, had a quite nice twist and Drama in de Tokyo Arc till Japan Arc, but everything after was a total mess with an ever more unsatifying ending. xxxholic's subsequently didn't make that any better and it also didn't help, that there was time travel, which I usually like. (Rather it was the only reason I did not drop it after the mess started.) And even these arcs I like looked somewhat dragged with these montrous panels, often enough filling 1-2 full pages. That was also a general problem I had with this title and towards the ending it got only worse... =X |

Konik said: @Shiroux, I've got a friend who gave Cowboy Bebop a 3, and so what? If he didn't like it, he has the right to give it a 3. Different people, different tastes. I dont watch that show, so I don't really care but from the premise of Tsubasa, I'm pretty sure Shina would like it as well and giving it a 3 is a little surprising, that's all. |
| As I mentioned, the get go idea was nice and the twist to have time travel in there was nice ingedient, too, but the cake that came out was imo just really salty. =X If you know a Tsubasa alternative, that has done it right it would quite fill in my criteria, indeed. |
Luna needs some space~ Luna's Sales List~ (German Version) Luna's Search & Sale pile (English Version) |
| @Shina_luna, about anime You asked earlier, maybe try Space Fantasia 2001 Nights. It's a bit old, but it touches the matter you asked in some way. |
| @shiroux will take a look at the LN, too! (have totally overseen this...) Konik said: @Shina_luna, about anime You asked earlier, maybe try Space Fantasia 2001 Nights. It's a bit old, but it touches the matter you asked in some way. Um. Not really. Well a large timespan does pass and all, but the focus ist more on the space opera and the time element just came in passing by, with not that really any much relevance at all. =X |

| Well, that's the only one that I could remember having anything to do with time that wasn't a flashback, from the ones that You didn't watch. :P It wasn't long, so at least I didn't waste to much of Your time. :P |
| @shina_luna: regarding the time request: you can give Higurashi no Naku Koro ni a shot. It deals with a recurring time lapse. It is a horror/psychological/thriller with lots of gore (though a censored version is available). Though to be clear, the time lapse plays a much bigger role in the sequel Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai. It is a really great show if you can get past the character designs. |
|
| @Shina: Onigamiden: boy travels back to the Heian era Crest of Stars/Banner of Stars: slow-paced, somewhat dialogue-heavy space opera which has a similar feel to Spice and Wolf. Touches this theme. The Abh live longer than the humans and there's some romance going on. Because of said romance, the care for details and the elaborate setting in which everything takes place, this problem is also addressed. Memories - the first Ova, Magnetic Rose fits your request. |
| @Motion_Menace Will check it out, thanks.

I know about that and the general idea does sound like what I want to find, but the character designs aren't even that much the problem but the splatter parts. I unfortunately ran into some trauma-inducing amv compilation of the probably most gruesome and craziest moments of the show, and I am certain, I don't ever want to see them again... |

| I'm looking anime where is shown power and strength of mankind, and I haven't seen it yet. |
  |
| @majorkusanagi: Power and strength of mankind huh...sounds like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. It's a powerful show and makes tons of references to how humans can overcome anything if they set their mind to it. @NyaNyaa: How about Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (2009) Mikuru Asahina is the epitome of ditzy. |
