| My Plan to Watch List is getting a little low for my liking and so I need some new recs. Looking for a couple different types of anime but I'm open to any series with a generally good story. Here's what I'm looking for: 1. Looking for a straight sob-story of any genre (romance, drama, comedy, etc.). Only thing I've ever cried to while watching up until this point was the episode Pikachu leaves Ash xD I want to find any animes I can add to this list. Closest thing I've had to this recently was the ef series (Looked at the recs based on the two series and found one good anime off of the list but the others don't seem appealing from just reading the synopsis). 2. NEED MORE PLOT TWISTS. Always been more into animes with hella plot twists and so I need more to watch. Basically looking for any psychological animes that'll make me think. Favorite example of this type of anime is Ergo Proxy (Yes, I have looked through the recs based on this anime. Have added/watched all that seem appealing to me). If I've missed some psych animes that are good, let me know! 3. Basically any fighting anime that's good. Already plan on watching Akame ga Kill sooner or later but I need more fighting series. Interested in any type of fighting (whether it be martial arts, gunfights, etc.), the story just needs to revolve around the need to fight. I tend to stay away from the big names (despite already having some on both my Completed and Plan to Watch lists) for whatever reason. I might overlook recs like Psycho-Pass and Sword Art Online just because I've already heard so much about them, whether it be good things or bad (after hearing so much, tehy just don't seem interesting anymore). I'm willing to give any series a look though so let me know |
| Clannad might make you cry (made me cry o.o) it's a romance/comedy but mostly romance. Mirai Nikki for plot twists Ooooh umm.... watch btooom! for an action |

| Plot Twists? Penguindrum will do the trick |

You should really watch Psycho-Pass is amazing (and the dub is excellent).I tend to stay away from the big names (despite already having some on both my Completed and Plan to Watch lists) for whatever reason. I might overlook recs like Psycho-Pass and Sword Art Online just because I've already heard so much about them, whether it be good things or bad (after hearing so much, tehy just don't seem interesting anymore). I'm willing to give any series a look though so let me know Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade (Budget) Works - The best animation in anime ever. Just watch this is you want a feast for the eyes with badass fights. Code Geass - Plot twists left, right and center. Just amazing. Phantom Requiem for the Phantom - (Gun's n Badassery) Something of a tragic story, at one point I literally sobbed, even though I usually on get teary eyed. Blue Exorcist/Ao no Excorist - an awesome anime with pretty cool fight scenes and an awesome soundtrack with a good dub. Nanatsu no Taizai - Some really awesome fight scenes. Hellsing Ultimate |
| Appreciate the responses :D most of the recs I already have on my PTW list tho :/ atleast I know which ones I need to watch first lol added most of the new ones I haven't seen but still in need of more c: |
| 2.Code geas 3.FMA:B, Berserk, |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| For plot twists (I guess) I reccomend: Shoujo kakumei utena - Same director as mawaru penguindrum (Ikuhara) so you can expect similarities in some way, shape or form also pretty rad ost |

Lelouch_Darsi said: I would've recommended Code Geass. Plot twists and always a cliffhanger at the end of every episode but it looks like a lot of people already recommended you that. Death Note Fate/Zero Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Hunter x Hunter (2011) Psycho-Pass Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan Steins;Gate Yea lol never heard of the series till now Is that Rurouni Kenshin good? Have always been wary of getting sucked into a series that's more than 30 episodes long lol the dude with the wraps on his face look familiar but is the series good enough to sit through the 100 episodes? |
| Fighting: Cowboy Bebop Bleach Rurouni Kenshin Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood One Piece Hunter x Hunter (2011) Fate/Zero Kingdom Good shows in general: Death Note Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World Log Horizon Kaiji |
| Tegami Bachi Shinreigari: Ghost Hound Busou Renkin |

Have always been wary of getting sucked into a series that's more than 30 episodes long lol the dude with the wraps on his face look familiar but is the series good enough to sit through the 100 episodes? Rurouni Kenshin is a very good series, but if you don't wish to watch such a long series I suggest you to skip the fillers. Here's a list of episodes which you must watch in order to understand the story: Episodes 1-12 Episodes 19-21 Episodes 28-62 You don't have to watch the ones that I did not list since they aren't part of the main plot. Episodes 28 is when the series actually starts getting good, but Episodes 1-12 and and Episodes 19-21 are necessary for setting the story and establishing the characters' background. But before Rurouni Kenshin, you must watch Code Geass first!!! Just saw this lol I appreciate the headsup on the fillers :D the breakdown definitely makes the total number of episodes less daunting, thanks! And alright lol I'll start Code Geass (sooner or later) before I get to Rurouni Kenshin |
