I recently remembered an anime I watched and I search all over my list and all anime websites I visited to no avail.

It is a futuristic anime with 2 protagonists. A girl who's mother is a purple haired robot (Very kind and has an american name I think) and a guy who joins an underground militia group to fight the government. I know it's vague as hell but I seriously can't remember anything else.

Please please please help me in my search. Thank!

it doesn't match your description entirely, but is there any chance that it might be ghost in the shell? the main protagonist has purple hair and she's a cyborg. it probably isn't ghost in the shell you're talking about, but i couldn't think of any other anime!

This one has stumped several folks and I've heard guesses from Ranma 1/2 to Urusei Yatsura.

Many years ago, before youtube went bad, someone made an AMV with clips of girl chasing a guy around school because she liked him. At least it sure seemed like she liked him, she seemed genuinely happy so it looked to be played for laughs. The guy doesn't like it and is trying to get away from her but she's determined, she even climbs in through windows! The only other thing I remember is she suddenly has on a bikini and an open long sleeve shirt and keeps chasing him in that.

This memory just popped back in my head a week ago and I'm trying to figure out who those characters are and what anime that was. I think her bikini was white and I can't remember stuff like hair color. Quite sure it wasn't Lum since I think I'd remember a swimsuit like that.

A girl chasing a guy who doesn't want that in a school setting reminds me of Tenjou Tenge. Although it's not THAT old.

I've made an account just to ask for this. See, I really wanted to find out what was the name of the first anime I've ever watched, so I can rewatch it. The problem is that... I can't find any info about it. Just as if it never existed.

What I know:

- From what I recollect, I watched it on Polish AXN Sci-fi (Yes, I checked the wiki pages, no info.)

- The story is about a virus that turns people into stone.

- It was a series, not a full-length movie (so King of Thorn is out).

- In one of the episodes a boy wanted to suicide because his mom fell to the disease, and just as they got him to not suicide, he turns into stone as well.


You will have my complete and utter respect if you help me succesfully find this anime. Thank you for reading.

Your description sort of reminds me of Zetsuen no Tempest except people were turned into metal not stone

Anyway, try looking through theTaken for Granite page on TV tropes, and look under the anime & manga subfolder.

Mod Edit: Please report extra identification threads and do not address this in the thread or tell people to post somewhere else. Thanks.

Fullmetal Alchemist had a turn-to-stone arch... so did Galaxy Express 999. Also, I think Book of Bantorra did as well.

The closest to those, in that you said "sci-fi", is Galaxy Express 999, as it involves a magical space train that goes from dystopian planet to dystopian planet for a boy who thinks he wants a robot body.

I don't see how Zetsuen no Tempest is sci-fi in any way, but yeah, it was a virus-of-sorts, spread by a fraction of a demi-god's body.

It's not an obvious or well known anime. It's not ghost in the shell or evangelion and the girl's mother is the one with purple hair and she's a humanoid robot. It's killing me that I can't give names or anything! It's also not an old anime but it's not from the past 2 seasons.

It also sounds like Zetsuen no Tempest to me. There was one exact episode where there's a boy who tries to commit suicide and turned to stone afterwards.

It seemed very 2000-esque, as I recall, yes closer to what you recommended than something from the 80s or 90s. There's a certain grit-style I really like about 80s animes. I realized I forgot to mention the decade.

I don't think it is Tenjo Tenge but I shouldn't brush aside possibliities like Kare Kano or FMP. I think it might have been a little on the cartoony side but this was years ago.

I'm looking for a certain anime I watched as little kid. I do not remember much. I think it was about some girl school or something. I remember fragments from two episodes.

Episode 1 They were assigned to make wooden boxes or something, and some cheated by paying a boy who worked with woodcraft, to make them the boxes. Some found out and wanted to get in on it too, I believe.

Episode 2 Something happened and someone ended up on the roof, threatening to jump off. Might have had something to do with some novel or something. I remember the papers of it being spread out in the wind from the roof. Someone on the ground reacted quite strong to it, I assume it was the author. The firemen place out one of those inflatable bags. At the end, after a bunch of talking, the ones on the roof jump off onto the bag.

Not a lot to go by, but I'm sure it should be enough if anyone's seen it.

I think this anime might have been produced under the 90s or at least very early 2000's (2003 max)

Heyy all,
I need help with an anime identification...

I remember watching a scene from a rather dark anime where an archer girl is fighting against a monster of some sort (might have been an orc). She fires magic green arrows. In the fight, her arrows do nothing to the monster, but she is able to evade all of its attacks. She then gathers all her "magic essence" to fire a devastating shot but eventually the monster captures her and pins her down and is about to strip her but she is saved by someone with a huge hammer just in time.
It might have been episode 4...but I cant remember all too clearly.

I know this information rather vague but any help would be appreciated! Thank youuu very much~~~~

Google says they are Kurumi and Shizuku from an art-book collection, named after the doujin circle "5 nenme no houkago", part of which is Kantoku (the illustrator). They look like HenNeko characters, but ince the names are different , consider them original or ask around about the content of the art-book.
