With every passing season, the past anime we’ve watched continue being pushed further into the back of our memories. Sometimes even shows you loved are soon a forgotten memory that not many people talk about, if at all anymore.

What are some good shows you feel people, including yourself, have forgotten about. I just remembered Assassination Classroom, and for how good it was, I feel it’s just an old memory that’s living in the past.

Michiko to Hatchin was pretty damn good, but not that many people watched it.

Also, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. Wolf Children had a far more compelling message, but the former was still a really good Hosoda Mamoru movie.

I know people still talk about Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, but I barely remember anything about it or why I think it's great.

You could say that the seasonal climate of anime is to blame for the lack of attention for already released shows, with a few exceptions of course, as the center of attention is mainly focus on what's being released.

I think people should avert their attention and show their love to more older shows, even going back into the 90s and 80s, because how many times over the last month have you heard discussions about classic anime from 30-40 years ago?

People do forget about it. Mainly because it's over perhaps. People do talk about Hunter x Hunter and it came out roughly during the same period.


A lot of people forget about Inuyasha too. It's not the best show ever but I just love it.

Hataraku maou-sama. A lot of fun and such a compelling show in today's isekai-ridden seasons. It was popular in Japan and outside of it and yet it died so quickly and I can't say I've seen anyone talk about it at all, sadly enough.
"The problem with defining even an aspect of your personality by something that you like, is that criticism of that product appears to you to be criticism of you personally. I find it to be a very harmful attitude, [...] you can't rationally discuss a product because you've started to define yourself by its very existence."

Baccano is a great series. But with 3-episode trend, others may get bored or confused with the nonlinear storyline. Things really get interesting in episode 4 or 5 and once completed is absolutely rewarding - one of my favs.

Little Busters and it's sequel Refrain. It's almost as good as Clannad and much, much better than Angel Beats but for some reason it's hardly ever mentioned when people are asking for "sad" anime.

If only Refrain was 24 episodes instead of 12, Clannad After Story would have a serious competitor.

I actually was realizing the other day how much Parasyte seems to be more forgotten, especially given how big it was when it came out 5 years ago. A lot of people probably do remember it somewhat, but it's really faded from the conversation compared to other shows of the time like Kill la Kill, NGNL, or Your Lie in April.

Not sure if it was ever that big, but Nodame Cantabile is a show that feels like it somehow became niche over the last 10 years. For being top 200 in terms of popularity, it sure doesn't feel like that many people have actually seen it.

And last for now, Hellsing Ultimate was one of the shows that helped get me into anime, but nowadays I feel like not many new anime fans have seen it or maybe even heard of it. It just barely comes up in conversation.

Let me know if you disagree that these are forgotten, since this is based on my own perception

Being bad and being sad are two different things. I liked Little Busters but it didn't make me cry. The same goes for Air. They're both good anime but they weren't sad enough to make me cry. Whereas Angel Beats did it. Clannad also somehow managed to succeed on that front.

I always end up saying Ranma 1/2, perhaps I'm a bit biased because I love it so much, but I haven't actually met anyone else who's read or watched it, and I live in a community of weebs. I guess because it came out in the 80s/90s it's been forgotten like other great shows of the era.
While I'm at it, I'll say Creamy Mami too. Never finished it but I always thought it was fun.

I'll tell only the ones I know:

-Slayers: Dude, as far as I know, Slayers is a cult-anime... Maybe its was the generation gap... (between the 2000's and the 2010)

-Tetsuwan Birdy + TV: Meh...

-Azumanga Daioh: Was funny, but not THAT funny... Also has many people who had it in their favorites' list...

-Princess Tutu: Another one with a very hidden, but numerous fanbase...

-Interstella5555: OMG, I hate you!!!!!!! You opened me an old scar!!! I thought, I could past that trauma...

-The Animatrix: Was pretty meh... But was a world of possiblities with the experimental animation, just like Love, Death and Robots...

-Tokyo Godfathers: Pretty cool series. I'd seen it in Latin American dub...

-Appleseed (2004) + Ex Machina + Alfa: I'd never understood why doesn't had the same boom as Ghost in the Shell (S.A.C. is one of my personal favorites)

-School Rumble: I can only talk in my very personal experience, I never could find it any funny at all...

-Yakitate!! Japan: I know this from a magazine review from the manga...

-Shijou Saikyou no Deshi Kenichi + OVA: Other one of my personal favorites... There are 2 things that I'm completely sure: 1.- The story could be 10 times better without all the erotic fanservice, and 2.-They should have hired the same studio to animate it as a proper TV series... I miss it so much :(

-Afro Samurai: I don't either understand why this is so forgotten...

-Nodame Cantabile all seasons, specials and OVAs: An excellent series, I loved it from the beginning to the last episode.

-Lucky Star: I don't know for sure. There was a time that Konata was considered a "goddess" or a "queen" among the anime fans, but they forgot the series very quickly. And some people tend to hate it, but they doesn't brag anything about watching over 900+ episodes from One Piece or when they are still watching Boruto... FML!!!

-Detroit Metal City: A truly piece of gold. The live-action movie was somehow unsatisfying, yet entertaining.

-Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu all seasons, specials and OVAs: Please excuse me, but this was so unfunny to me...

-Trigun: Badlands Rumble - everibody is ignoring this nice movie: What??? Trigun has a movie??? o_O!

-Shinryaku! Ika Musume all seasons, specials and OVAs: Everthing would have been better, without Chizuru Aizawa... Just my opinion...

-Gosick: In your opinion, does this is really worth the try??? Just to be sure, because I'm not truly convinced to watch it.

-Sket Dance: Dude, this series was so disappointing in the last 15 episodes. But it had so much potential on its own... And it wasted it. (Episode 7 almost made me cry... TT_TT)

-Carnival Phantasm: Another one of my personal favorites. The only thing I hope is, with all the shit coming from the Grand Order series, they could make another season!!!

-Binbougami ga!: I suppose that Ichiko Sakura was something beyond an annoying, totally unlikeable bitch, that the comedy within the series died so fast... (But Momiji was a truly piece of gold!)

-Joshiraku + OVA: Dude, I really tried to like it... But it was so mortally boring! (But the ending is truly an anime treasure!)

-Servant x Service: Man, I love almost all the characters!!! (Minus Tohko, the series could have been much better withot her or reducing her "tsundere" levels, but I really loved Megumi Chihaya, by far the best character in the series!)

-Danna ga Nani o Itte Iruka Wakaranai Ken + Danna ga Nani o Itte Iruka Wakaranai Ken 2: The first season is incredibly good, but the second season was like a hit in the nuts with an airplane packed with explosives. It was something that sucked very far beyond bad!!! What happened here?!

-Tanaka-kun wa Itsumo Kedaruge: I'm uselessly waiting for another season... All the characters are so likeable or lovable. Man, Echizen deserves more love!!!

-Emiya-san Chi no Kyou no Gohan: I really loved this series. Nice and peaceful, also made me like even Tohsaka and Ilya... But the best characters there were Saber, Taiga and Lancer (at last, he really made it until the end of this series alive!)

-Slayers: Dude, as far as I know, Slayers is a cult-anime... Maybe its was the generation gap... (between the 2000's and the 2010)

Duh.

-Tetsuwan Birdy + TV: Meh...

I like it except the last season...this is what it counts for my list.
Same thing for all your other "Meh".


AnimaExZero said:
-Princess Tutu: Another one with a very hidden, but numerous fanbase...

People were mentioning it around Madoka Magica for the sake of "example of earlier dark mahou shojo"...which is not even correct.
And than forgot about it again.

-Interstella5555: OMG, I hate you!!!!!!! You opened me an old scar!!! I thought, I could past that trauma...

Do you feel pain?
Good.

-Tokyo Godfathers: Pretty cool series. I'd seen it in Latin American dub...

It's a movie, not series tho.


AnimaExZero said:
-Appleseed (2004) + Ex Machina + Alfa: I'd never understood why doesn't had the same boom as Ghost in the Shell (S.A.C. is one of my personal favorites)

Of course it's not as good as GITS but still enjoyable...and very forgotten. I don't get your point.


AnimaExZero said:
-Yakitate!! Japan: I know this from a magazine review from the manga...

Thus you are not familiar nor with the manga, nor with the anime...and I was talking about the anime.



My mistake. (Copy -> Past mistake.) Removed it from the list - it's actually relatively known.


AnimaExZero said:
-Gosick: In your opinion, does this is really worth the try?

If you like detective shows, alternative history and gorgeous backgrounds. The plot is kind of meh tho.

Magi. It was pretty popular at first but sadly the studio didn't pick it up to end it properly. I think this series is underrated, more people need to watch/read (I suggest read) it

Ghost Hound. I haven't heard ANYONE really talk about it, and it doesn't seem to have a higher presence out of MAL forums either.

It is an unpopular version of Lain, despite being just as technical and detailed as Lain. I came across that anime outside of MAL. The animesuggest subreddit members know a lot of anime and make damn good suggestions.

Lol at people listing FMAB here. I think you guys don't know what "forgotten" means. If you didn't see a daily thread about your fav, doesn't mean noone remembers it.

Monster, it was and still is a masterpiece but I feel as if its been buried by a series of newer shows and forgotten about, or it may be that its just not talked about much

Monster comes up every time people talk about anime elitists, which is basically all the time on MAL. :P

Fullmetal Alchemist 2003. Yes, people tend to forget it exists a lot due to it's more popular twin and I'm puzzled by people saying people have forgotten FMAB. SMH!


I'm one of the few people who considers it on par with Brotherhood.
Nah its not as few as you think. Ive talked with some ppl and they feel the same way, nostalgia or not. Personally I feel that while brotherhood was excellent in worldbuilding, the original was amazing at developing its characters because it had a smaller cast to work with. Perfect example: Lust. And a darker, gritty story that fits the themes very well rather than the sounen theme of brotherhood. I found the origins of the enemy just as if not more engaging. Brotherhood also skipped out on some great moments that happened at the beginning. Yea I think the best experience is still to try and watch both rather than just Brotherhood.

The ones where the manga and/or the anime series is completed are always forgotten. People quickly move on to trendy ongoing series as they're more talked about. I feel like people don't talk about Yu Yu Hakusho at all, it was one of the more known titles and was pretty good from what i remember. A good example of a great, forgotten anime.
