| what heck is a deep anime though?so far I Know pretty much any work in the universe have some kinda of theme,what would make it deep? |
| I like anime that ask those kind of "why are we here" sort of questions. Philosophical anime such as Kino's Journey and Mushishi are some of my favorite anime because of that. |
bitchassdarius said: so my question is do you prefer anime with deep meaning like darling in the franxx FranXX having deep meaning...?  I prefer deep anime with complex and meaningful themes and messages, as well as the executed of proper symbolism and development of the characters. Texh was a fantastic anime that fell under that category for me. Glad someone else appreciates it. Also same could be said for many of the titles on my favorites. |

| i prefer easygoing series with subtle complexity than "look at me, i am soo symbolic, i am soo deap" kind of anime... |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| I derive enjoyment from both the deep and shallow ends of anime. Something is not automatically better because it's complicated and not automatically worse because it's simple. |
| "Laws exist only for those who cannot live without clinging onto them." -Souske Aizen "Bleach"  |
| I prefer deep anime like SAO over shallow stuff like NGE yeah. |

-Lofn- said: I want to put my dick into 2D babes deep pusi full deep immersion? Aguuus said: An applause for defining a pretentious anime as profound. yeah, lol. finding deep meaning in something that didn't meant one is a part of apophenia |
 |
| I don't think Darling in the Franxx is deep it may have sexual themes but I wouldn't classify it as deep also Legend of the galactic heroes,NGE,Serial Experiments Lain and of course Texhnolyze are the shows I would classify as deep and the things about sexual agency and awakening that stuff is covered in pretty much any action,magic,harem,school show. |
Aguuus said: An applause for defining a pretentious anime as profound. You can make any anime seem profound or pretentious depending on how you write about it. |
| I prefer an obvious choice, like using a virtual reality device and go deeper beyond slice of life. |
| Deep anime is synonymous to elitist anime so you just pretty much need to google what elitist anime are. I'm pretty sure, LoGH will still stand the flow of meme and be the one, elitist anime of all-time, according to various sources. |
| I like both and anime can be both. Look at Aria for example which is made purely to relax but also talks about some philosophical stuff every now and then. |
 |
| This is a phenomenal post. Id add To love-ru and pokemon as 1 additional deep philosophical anime |
| you wot mate? FLCL 2 is right around the corner. so is toaru majustu no index season 3 to be deep you don't have to be "EVERYTHING IS PAIN *Slit wrists.*most the time where a show does dark to be dark it comes off as fake deep. *cough* Magical Girl Site *cough* " I found that this season Shiyan Pin Jiating seems to have promise with addressing some social issues without being Grim dark. there's also Full metal panic. @Kuma some symbolism is fine just as long as it doesn't go full darkness for the sake of darkness. nanoha has some symbolism, but it doesn't drown us in it. dragon maid managed to address some issues with society without going dark emo mode. |

hazarddex said: @Kuma some symbolism is fine just as long as it doesn't go full darkness for the sake of darkness. dragon maid managed to address some issues with society without going dark emo mode. that's what i mean tho... symbolysm just for the sake of symbolism, not actually giving important massage with important purpose that better showed implicitly... and talking about dragon maid, anime actually tooned down lot of dragon nihilism, skeptism, and apathism (and yes, sometimes in emo way, but not in bad way, especially fafnir, iruru, lucoa, emma, and recently Kanna)... it's just how dragon moralities works in different way than human... how our moralities affecting dragon and how human who interacted with dragon also slowly understanding dragon reasoning... it make us questioned again what moralism whcih already become our common sense... (the manga also has more sexual fanservice BTW)... |
"If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| Studios don't risk because fans like to label everything as cliché even if an author didn't know any, people would found any similarity and blame the author, There are People that just see ecchi and just assumes it's not deep |

bitchassdarius said: so my question is do you prefer anime with deep meaning like darling in the franxx, or do you like anime like comic girls where you can just "turn your brain off"? No, I would appreciate anime that offers depth, but I also appreciate anime that are not doing so. Anime exist for a lot of reasons. A lot of anime would be better-off with little artistic attempt. And I don't agree that "turn your brain off" is the right solution, the best way is to use your brain to think about what you are looking for/focusing on and what you are watching. If you and the anime come at cross-purpose, it would not result in a satisfactory experience. bitchassdarius said: also, what happened to all the deep anime? it seems they are producing less and less of it... Because fans for deep anime are not generous with their money, so people stop making anime for them. |

bitchassdarius said: so my question is do you prefer anime with deep meaning like darling in the franxx No OP, i dont prefer anime with deep meaning like darling in the franxx, sorry. |
 |
| I can go for both as long as I know what I'm getting myself into. It all really depends on my mood. Even anime that are centered around stupidity and erotica can be good when executed properly. But yeah, I usually prefer deep anime as long as I can see it's not trying too hard to come off as intellectual and sophisticated. |
| La Li Lu Le Lo |
| If a show that tried to be deep falls flat then it tried to be something good at least. I cannot say that about any cash grab trash with a half assed production. |

| Darling in the Franxxx has a deep meaning? A message? Humor me, please. |
 |
bitchassdarius said: in my OP i said it has a really layered exploration of sexual agency and awakening. it also questions things we take for granted like memory, authority, and groupthink. I see. Yeah, I agree with that. Well, yeah. I do prefer a manga/anime that wants to bring a message to people. Yet, even if it doesn't, at least it has a good plot for entertainment purposes. |
|
| No Darling in the Franxx isn't deep it's a shitshow filled with otaku pandering and waifubaits with shallow sexual undertones that any retard would notice. Monster, LOGH, Texhnolyze, NGE, Lain, Paranoia Agent, Haibane Renmei, Akagi, kinda Kaiji are actual deep shows. |

| I flat-out don't give series without a deeper theme more than an 8 out of 10. When the character, struggles and ideas within an anime aren't grounded in something bigger, they're usually just not very interesting. |

| I don't know, the darkness of humanity was a thing that hit me when I was 16. Now I realized that humanity is a lot more complex than that, so these themes depicting humanity as dark really feel way too naive to me. Texhnolyze didn't bring any new themes to me, therefore it was anything but deep according to me. Really disappointing, I should have watched it at the age of 15. |
Think it twice, Is it worth? |
| Well if by 'this year' you mean 'last season' then the selection is obviously pretty limited. There's shows like Sora Yori and Violet Evergarden and Koi wa Ameagari no You ni that have depth to them but more regarding the personal/emotional/psychological exploration of the characters and less in an existentialist, philosophical kind of way like Texhnolyze. Don't really see any comparable show from last season tbh. Shows that are similar to Texhnolyze are pretty rare I'd say so if you're looking for more like it you best start with the 'standard' recs a la Ergo Proxy, Casshern Sins, SEL, Ghost in the Shell, Shinsekai Yori, Dennou Coil, Rakugo, 3-gatsu and maybe Wolf's Rain and Psycho-Pass (even if the latter is trash in my personal opinion). There's lesser known titles too, especially some movies, but I'd recommend watching the 'big' ones for now if you want more stuff with a similar appeal to Texhnolyze. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I watch High School DxD for the plot. |

| nagi no asukara alternates between land and the bottom of the ocean. as deep as the sea floor |
 |
| It depends. Because I watch a lot of shit that is deemed "for children" yet it has a lot of thematics and topics not covered in big series. Yet when I watch a lot of darker more mature series, they're one note or usually have something in the logic bugging me *cough* TOKYO GHOUL. |

| Everything can be deep if you want it to be. Darling in the franxx is no more than teenage drama |
