| I'm seeking anime that are calm and lighthearted. I'd like great character development. When i think of lighthearted anime... i'll jus' give you some examples based on my completed list so you can get an idea of what I've liked in the past: Orange Fruits Basket Azumanga Daioh Interviews With Monster Girls * a very favorite of mine* Housekishou Richard-shi no Nazo Kantei Maiko-san Chi no Makanai-san I have no opposition to most genres. I don't mind romance, i'm trying to expand my Slice of Life and Romance titles. |

| Maybe not "calm" per se, but I think you should give Ojamajo Doremi a shot for light-hearted character development!! Hanayamata is another underrated light-hearted pick I'd recommend. |
 |
| Mushishi,Aria,kino's journey(2003 version only), Romeo no Aoi sora,A place further than universe and yuru camp I guess these anime will be enough for now |
| Thread moved to the correct board. |
| An interesting request. At first when you mentioned desiring series that keep pretty tonally lighthearted but have "great character development" it sounded like something of a contradiction for me since I usually associate the most lighthearted series with stuff with static to minimal character development, but after your examples given, I think I know what you mean. Excluding anything already mentioned, - Mahoutsukai no Yome - Aishiteruze Baby - Sora no Woto - Hanasaku Iroha - Natsume Yuujinchou - The Aquatope on White Sand (still presently airing) - Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou - Eve no Jikan - Houkago Saikoro Club - Gin no Saji - Kyoto Teramachi Sanjou no Holmes - Mujin Wakusei Survive - Somali to Mori no Kamisama - Ikoku Meiro no Croisee the Animation - Super Cub |

I don't mind romance, i'm trying to expand my Slice of Life and Romance titles. Calming, relaxing, light-hearted/low level drama anime are my go to lol so here's a selection. You can just pick out what appeals to you: Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle Sora yori mo Tooi Basho Hitoribocchi no Marumaru Seikatsu Flying Witch My Roommate is a Cat Ascendance of a Bookworm Servant x Service Gakuen Babysitters Natsume Yuujinchou Yuru Camp Kimi to Boku Yotsuiro Biyori Kuragehime Tanaka-kun is Always Listless Chihayafuru Non Non Biyori Wasteful Days of High School Girls Akagami no Shirayuki-hime Denki-gai The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent Comic Girls Is the Order a Rabbit? Aria The Morose Mononokean Chio's School Road Tamayura |

| Domestic girlfriend. Completely family friendly and light hearted. -_- |
| I think Yuru Camp, Gin no Saji, Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai, Lucky Star, Working, Acchi Kocchi or Gouchuumon wa Usagi desu ka will work. |
   sos, there's a goddess in disquise |
| Thanks everyone! |

| 3gatsu no lion is good but hmm... i think its calm and lighthearted and also this anime is a little bit psychological and cute trailer: |

| Here's a list of some I can think of right now: 3-gatsu no Lion Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Mahoutsukai no Yome Honzuki no Gekokujou Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso and here's one that is currently airing and one that just finished airing: Blue Period Bokutachi no Remake |

| Non Non Biyori. CGDCT in the countryside. Very relaxing and brings peace to the mind. |

| -Aria series -Keep your hands off Eizoukin! (more light-hearted than calm) -Love Live! |
| Raa you have a lot of suggestions but I didn't see any of these; Kimi ni todoke Sukitte Ia Na yo gamers! Seishun buta yaoru wa bunny girl senpai no yume wo mina |

| A show that was made to be exactly what you're asking for is The Helpful Fox Senko-san . The show is literally morphine for the mind and soul. Some other good ones are: All of K-on! is amazing and super chill, one of the best Yuru Camp is up there with K-on! for it's chilled out nature, plus, it's pretty to look at! Spice and Wolf is a legendary romance anime for good reason! Above all else, I can't recommend this one more highly. The show is pretty calm for the most part which is a bonus for you. I'd realistically say look at my watched list and browse my 7-10's as it seems we have strikingly similar taste in anime based on how we ranked the things we've both seen. |

I think I was going to watch it years ago and fell off due to lack of internet at the time |

I think I was going to watch it years ago and fell off due to lack of internet at the time The atmosphere in it which perfectly captures the whole fantasy and storytelling in it . It's atmosphere is beautiful and calming yet haunting or horrifying. Well there are some other things which makes mushishi too incredible but I love its atmosphere most because I don't remember a series whose atmosphere was this perfect for its setting . |
