Both are great shows for sure.

But only for those who grok them.

On a factual level, 86 was never hyped, I'd say it's niche but ended up managing to appeal to a wider audience than its target

If you finished the whole first season and didn't enjoy it there's no reason to keep watching.

Eh you just don't understand it, especially if you compared it to DiTF. But that's fine, 86 isn't for everyone.

Just because you're a one person with a different taste doesn't mean a certain show is "overhyped" lol

popular anime are the only good anime so i have to watch them

this anime isnt even popular


It has 500k, that is higher than average. Well, it has average ratings in Japan.
And popular =/= good, it is more on personal taste. I did not enjoy Toradora and Toradora is the most popular anime in Japan. Source: https://www.anikore.jp/pop_ranking/oc:favoriteCount/

I have checked your MAL. I can see you like mind games. 86 has no mind games. I think you should drop it and watch Tenkyou No Alderamin instead. Tenkyou No Alderamin has low ratings in the West but high ratings in Japan.

Never, both seasons are bad. Don't bother, watch Iron Blooded Orphans instead.

is it necessary to watch prequel or other gundum series


All Alternate Universes are standalone. Here are the list of all AU Gundam anime:
Mobile Fighter: G Gundam
Gundam Wing
After War Gundam X
Gundam SEED
Gundam 00
Gundam AGE
Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans
Gundam Witch From Mercury

Turn A Gundam and Reconquista in G are NOT standalones.
Before watching Turn A Gundam, you need to watch every Gundam anime before Turn A Gundam.
Watch Reconguista in G after Turn A Gundam, this is recommended by Tomino, the original creator of Gundam.

The best entry points to Gundam are:
UC Gundam (war drama fans)
Mobile Fighter: G Gundam (shounen / martial arts fans)
After War: Gundam X (romance fans)
Iron-Blooded Orphans (Newer anime fans)

Speaking of Gundam, it is probably time for me to watch Unicorn and Reconquista the third time~ >_>

Yea those 2 anime can be compared to each other but 86 is more like a seinen combinated with Meka and Darling in the FranXX is a slice of life 70%.
Love is not the main theme in 86, 86 is based more on Story line and describeing the world around the MC.
Darling in the franXX is a romance 100%.

In my opinion S1 was alright, but S2 is when I got truly invested in the team, and the conclusion for S2 was soooo satisfying! Just finish S2 and judge for yourself.

Genuinely, the majority of ya’ll are bitching. Swear it’s the same thread over and over again. If you don’t like the show, then drop it? No one’s forcing you to watch it.

Always the same complaints too. ‘Show’s boring’; ‘Don’t like Lena/Shin’; ‘the cast is forgettable’; etc. You complain about repetitiveness, yet you’re ironically being repetitive yourself with the same bitching.

Damn this thread really hurts my heart. I really enjoyed 86 and I loved all of it. You can really watch the characters grow and develop. The animation and art style is phenomenal. Plus the 86 brings up some real world points and some humanity to the characters decisions thought out the anime. But yeah I think 86 is only for the selective few, like me. And it's perfectly fine for people not to enjoy it. At first too I didn't really enjoyed the first few episodes since I was very confused with the world building and all that, but I fell in love with 86 once I understood everything and all the things the characters are talking about. So I think to truly enjoy the anime, you must really pay attention to whats happening and remember key details and plot points. Overall 86 is really good in my opinion, but its totally okay for some people not to like it since everyone has their own tastes and preferences of anime...


Edit: I just wanted to say that 86 only has 1 season and its divided into 2 parts, not 2 seasons

There's no defining moment imo where it clearly "gets good"; it's more like a crescendo that slowly builds up to its beautiful ending. I actually thought Part 1 was boring, but now I want to go and re-watch it with a newfound appreciation after finishing Part 2.

But if you want my advice, if you really see it as comparable to darling in the franxx, I'm just going wager that this is not exactly the anime for you my friend- as probably what is the case for nearly everyone else in this thread. I was a borderline 86 hater (the nonsense-type of hater who calls things "overhyped") before as well, but Part 2 actually made me want to get into the light novels.

Actually, if you didn't HATE Part 1 and just thought it was OKAY (which was what I thought), I'd say give Part 2 a chance. Maybe you'll find a hidden gem for yourself as I did.

That is the stupidest thing Ive ever heard anyone say in this site. Except that Chika is the best character in Kaguya-sama.

And I dont think its a coincidence it came from the same person.

Why would you pick up s3 if you didnt like s1 and s2 of an anime lmfao.

I personally do that in a lot of series which I don't enjoy. Sequels motivate me to watch the remaining series
Don't really know how to explain.

Except that Chika is the best character in Kaguya-sama.And I dont think its a coincidence it came from the same person.
How tf that relevant to this mate ?

And never have I said she's the best character.I personally like her the most along with Hayasaka than everyone else.
You don't have to agree with me.

Good per se, it doesn't.
Personally, i started to actually enjoy it by season 2. They removed lena and focused on Shin, a character i actually cared, as well as giving some really needed wolrd building (although delivered in an awafully boring way).

Gundam The Origin is the prequel to Gundam 0079, the original Gundam anime.
Gundam The Origin explains how the One Year War starts while Gundam 0079 focuses on the war.

Came in thinking it was a political show, surprised by generic designs, generic characters, shallow plot, interactions that are synonym with anime, that make me ashamed of being a fan of anime in general, really good 3D models though.

The first 3 or 4 episodes were good. But it was a very poor show after that. I dropped it after episode 9. (EDIT: I checked my episode discussion comments and episode 4 is the last one I enjoyed. I seemingly hated episodes 5-9. But even though I liked episode 4, it appears that's when I started hating princess pig, so the "turn" started then.)

So if you already got past the first 4 episodes and don't like it then do yourself a favor and stop. "When does it get better?" It doesn't. 

This is a season 1 thread. Why would so many of you tell the OP to watch season 2 (and even season 3!) if they didn't even like season 1? Weird.
