In light of this season's hottest show featuring "anthropomorphized rice," Love Kome: We Love Rice, I've become morbidly interested in all those other anime that want to bring something to life, no matter how ridiculous it may be, and then give it a cute face. So! I'm compiling a list of what's already been done, and maybe we can guess what anime will have in store for us next.
This list would probably be a lot longer if we included manga. |

| I wish someday they will do that to a table and let us know how they felt everytime people use them as sex toys to masturbate. |

| You used SeHa Girls instead of Neptunia? What is this? IT Gijinka Keikaku = Computer terms (IP, HTTP, JPG, etc) turned into girls. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bzv4L03ud8A (no subtitles) Touken Ranbu = Swords turned into guys. https://myanimelist.net/anime/33023 Uma Musume = Horses turned into girls. Not aired yet, by PA Works. https://myanimelist.net/anime/35249 I'm sure there's a lot more. If you include games and commercials, there are tons more from alcohol into boys and even eyedrop ingredients into girls. Yes... eyedrop ingredients. |

EZanime91 said: I am surprised no one said the Hyper-dimension Neptunia series. Cute girls are stand-ins for video game consoles and handhelds. You're the tiniest bit late to that. |

I am disappointed in myself for forgetting about Hetalia. |

| No one has anthropomorphized my internal suffering yet. Maybe next season. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| Don't forget about Cockroach Girls. Or how about Assault Rifle Girls? There's of course Squid Girl too. There's also Blood Types And last but not least I remember this love story about a Vending Machine. Some more I found but haven't seen. https://myanimelist.net/anime/3939/Kafun_Shoujo_Chuuihou_The_Animation Hentai with girls based on different kinds of pollen(?) https://myanimelist.net/anime/750/Binchou-tan charcoal, apparently https://myanimelist.net/anime/5112/Akikan Different types of Soda Girls |

Paul said: They're not fictional consoles by the way. They're all based off real consoles, companies and game franchises. I know they're based on real consoles, but that doesn't make the real consoles. After all, the real console is a PlayStation and not a Lastation. At the very least, they're fictionalized versions of real video game consoles, but that's a bit unwieldy. |

| Morbid curiosity led me to watch Akikan!. It's not worth it unless you're just curious how weird Japan can get without going full degenerate. It's the worst TV series I've watched that I didn't drop and in the bottom five overall. I'd legit rec watching random generic isekais and non-ecchi harems before Akikan unless you're similarly morbidly curious. |

TitanAnteus said: Do we have cute girl versions of areas in japan? I don't know about that, but there is a series where train statiions were anthropomorphized into cute boys. https://myanimelist.net/anime/6327/Miracle_Train__Chuo-sen_e_Youkoso https://myanimelist.net/anime/7103/Miracle%E2%98%86Train__Oedo-sen_e_Youkoso I can't say I've seen any shows where nuclear power stations are portrayed as cute girls or boys. Nor oil drilling rigs or parking lots. There is a talking tank in Wellber no Monogatari. |
| Demonbane - anthropomorphic books. The heroine is Necronomikon (the original version). Also a few girl-shaped lovecraftian horrors. Strike Witches aren't actually anthorpomorphic planes, but very close to it. |

At first I was able to get some "so bad it's good" humor out of it because the concept was so weird and terrible, but after the novelty wore off it was just a show that was really cliche and boring. The "action" was similar; it was crude and novel at first, but it became really uninteresting fast. To the uninformed, apparently carbonated drinks and non-carbonated drinks hate each other and are willing to fight to the death. If it were only four episodes long or less the weirdness might have remained novel long enough for me to have formed a opinion of the show similar to that of Mars of Destruction, which I thought was fun even though it was terrible. I can't speak to shows like Fortune Arterial or Campione directly, but I doubt my opinion of them would be any better than my opinion of Akikan. |

TripleSRank said: I can't speak to shows like Fortune Arterial or Campione directly, but I doubt my opinion of them would be any better than my opinion of Akikan. Campione is a fine example of "wish fulfillment" type of shows. Guy gets awesome powers, enemies to crush and women to love. It's pretty good as far as these shows go - powers are awesome powers he took away from a god, women are not too stereotypical (and that scene with the blonde was hot!), enemies are big-name stuff like Dracula and Perseus, and overall the writing is pretty interesting. But people who dislike that other people get their wishes fulfilled, especially if they feel powerful and capable, will surely criticize it for being what it is. It does not provide much anthropomorphism, except Athena who looks like a mysterious schoolgirl for no apparent reason. Fortune Arterial is a more typical harem show, with some vampires and mysteries for good measure. I don't remember it well, but it was pretty good. Speaking of anthropomorphism, I remembered a few more. Omamori Himari - an anthropomorphic teacup (and a few cute youkai girls). Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance - a number of spirits have anthropomorphic forms, most notably Est, whose main form is a sword. |
