I actually made a thread saying that it's my favorite romance anime and looked for people who thought so too! happy you guys think so as well.

Turn A gundam its the masterpieces of gundam you can fight me in the desert and ill die and still be right.

Toradora taiga is not a tsundere or like the tsundere archtypes.

black rock shooter

Full metal alchemist Brotherhood will always be better then the full metal alchemist in name only we got before it.

Toaru Majutsu no Index is one of the greatest series out there and deserved a complete adaptation. and railgun is and part of Indexverse and can't be watched without seeing index deal with it railgun only fans.

Fullmetal Alchemist (2003), I feel like it is overshadowed by Brotherhood, which it doesn't deserve to be and many people trash on it for "Not following the manga" or "having filler" which it does not have any filler what-so-ever.
It's very close to my heart and I believe it to be a true masterpiece in displaying dark themes and an epic adventure at the same time

I'll always defend Funimation's dub of Sgt. Frog/Keroro Gunsou. For some reason it's one of the biggest targets of purists, who "REEEEEEEEE" at the mention of it and feel the need to go on page-long rants about how Funimation ruined the show.

I will always fight anyone who claims that Clannad is just cry-porn, or that After Story's ending is an ass-pull. Clannad's story was incredibly well-thought out, giving tons of information and foreshadowing for the ending that no one seemed to pay attention too. It's characters and themes are presented with too much nuance, and it's character's reactions to tragedy are too realistic and not overblown enough for it to be considered cry-porn.

I'll defend K-On to the death as well. People just don't seem to be able to understand what subtlety looks like, and just assume that cute girls automatically means lacking in characterization, development, or themes. K-On's incredible depth of characterization, gradual character development, strong comedy, lack of fanservice, and emotional depth aren't given nearly enough credit by too many people.

An anime I would defend, would be fate/zero. I don't care if you don't like fate/zero, since most of us have different taste in anime, but if you call it it shit then you should know what you're in for. I would probably also defend subaru from re:zero, but only as a character, and not the entire anime series.

there's a big difference between defending your feelings and defending an anime. At least I thought there should be. huh, people really get attached to anime that much.
But your feelings are your feelings, just express them to people in real life, because it's impossible to do properly over the Internet.
This thread makes it seem like media is now acting as a vessel for people's life experiences they should be having in real life. Well, guess that's the future.

For me, it's Re:Zero.
Alright, half the fanbase is shit and the entirety of it isn't perfect, but I still love Re:Zero to death.
I've read some of the LNs and the original WN aswell as rewatch the series multiple times in its entirety.
Alot of people hate it for supposedly lacking depth or being too cliche but I think it's rather the opposite.
There is plenty to be said, but I'll just leave it at that because everyone hates annoying fans who blab on about their favorite show.

Aku no Hana always and forever. Shit changed me.


Should I watch it?
What's it about? ???


It is really a hit or miss so I'd say take a chance if you don't a line up planned already, but we have pretty high compatibility so maybe give it a shot. Some warnings; the animation is really different from any anime you've probably ever seen (its called rotoscoping if you want to look into it) so it makes the anime look extremely real which is different. Either you hate it or you don't mind it, I was in the latter group. Next the music is really unique too, it gives off a horror vibe but is also pretty emotional - I absolutely loved the music, but again its a hit or miss. Finally, if you aren't into really psychological anime you won't like this at all - I do though, and this anime has some of the best character psychological profiles I've ever encountered in any entertainment.

The story: It revolves around romance, but also - as I have previously mentioned - deep psychological conflict and human insecurity, and how that is played out in the minds of kids who are confused about life or just plain lost. The psychological factor reminds me of school days, but not as intense. Most of what happens seems trivial, but the escalation of it all is so amazing - also if you don't read manga this might not be for you because you can't take in the full masterpiece without reading the manga as the anime doesn't complete the series.

I don't want to give anything away so I'll leave my description vague, but no other anime has struck me as hard as Aku no Hana, and I don't think any could.

Well, I'm not that fanatical, but I will maintain that Toradora! has more depth and nuance to it than most people give it credit for. And I will continue to squash the idea that it sucks because of how immature the romance story is, given that it's an adolescent love story. One done right.


Couldn't agree any less, Toradora was amazing and by far my all time favourite. Sadly it seems that far too many who've watched it missed the final scene :/

For the most part, the only thing I ever hear about Clannad is "it was so good, I cried so much." why would you want to watch a anime that makes you cry I'll never understand that but since you said you'll defend it till you die I'm not here to argue.
As for me, the anime I'd defend till I die would probably be Monster just because's it's an anime I could watch 100 times and not get bored of.

No, there's more to life than internet and anime.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

As much as I love death note, if you rewatch it without the first impression hype you see it's made by humans, and has it flaws and plotholes.


Nah It has plot conveniences but no REAL plot holes

I wouldn't say "an" anime, there's a few that I would defend until I die. There's Fairy Tail, InuYasha, Steins;Gate, Toradora and Sword Art Online.

These anime are awesome in that they've assisted in helping keeping my depression in check and the constant humor kept me entertained. I love these anime with a passion!! :)

Rahxephon and Gurren Lagann.

Some my fav animes that many people seem to disregard for whatever reason.

especially Rahxephon which IMO has awesome characters, music, plot, and atmosphere however is most of the time just disregarded as an Evangelion clone when IMO, even though Evangelion is awesome, Rahxephon is better.


obviously my other fav anime such as Gintama, FMA Brotherhood, Magi, D Gray Man, Eva, Code Geass, but they dont seem to get as much hate as the two mentioned above, for whatever reason.
