| What is your favorite non-original anime whose original source is not LN or manga? Do you think this played a role in making this show great? |
 |
| Steins; Gate has to be my favorite anime like this as it was adapted from a Visual Novel. |
 |
| Ef: A Fairy Tale of the Two is a wonderful adaptation by Shaft. |
 Maybe try sleeping? |
| Steins gate, heavens feel and cyberpunk are my favorites that aren't adapted from ln or manga |
 |
| Ginga eiyuu densetsu is pretty cool, it's based on a novel, you could make an argument based on the difference between writing quality in novels and light novels I guess. Although Tian Guan Ci Fu and Mo Zu Shi are also technically based on novels because light novel is a primarily japanese term. I guess you could say that light novels are a contemporary to ya literature in the west anyway. Edit: I also really like Paprika, which is also based on a novel. |

| Moribito and Shinsekai Yori are both novel adaptations and really great |
| I'd like to make myself believe that Planet Earth turns slowly |
magicalmaid said: Clannad and Steins;Gate, back when VN adaptations were a thing To be honest, I'm somewhat surprised that in 2022 people are still calling Gate and not Cyberpunk, for example. |
|
| Steins;Gate and Fate Stay Night immediately pops into my mind And nah, I don't think being a VN helped these shows great. Quite the opposite in fact cause being an anime adaptation of a 60+ hours long novel is guaranteed to be a failure. There's so much missing content from VN-adapted anime normally, but S;G and Fate might as well be the exceptions. The VNs of these two are still far superior tho |
 I wasted all my time in rewatching to the point of my rewatch total is higher than my overall anime total lmao |
| Persona 4 The Animation which is based on the ps2 version of one of the best games ever made. Anime added a lot of great humor to the fantastic game. |
 |
| Kanashimi no Belladonna Legend of the Galactic Heroes Steins;Gate RobertBobert said: Do you think this played a role in making this show great? Absolutely yes. |
| I would have to say God of High School. The korean manhua is pretty good. The anime didnt do the series justice because it only covered a few chapters and didnt get to the good part. Idk if there ever will be a season 2 |
| Kanashimi no Belladonna, Alfred J. Kwak plus Moomin. And I'd say yes. |
 |
| Princess Connect is really good, it’s based off a gacha game. The main four are very entertaining and Season 2 was incredible. Some of the fight scenes were amazing and there were a lot of great character moments that made my cry a lot. Highly recommend it. |

| Like shenmue the animation it's based on a video game |
| Kemono Friends. Great anime while its source is a mobile game nobody knows about and I'm not sure even exists. |
 |
| Legend of Galactic Heroes (Novel) Steins;Gate (VN) If webmanga counts, then Mob Psycho 100 is included |
 |
| In my top 10, I classify my anime as 3 types: Those that I gave a 10/10 to, those that I would give a 9/10 to, and those that I like a lot, but obvious constraints would make me score them lower. All to say, out of the three that I give 10/10s to, 2 are originally webcomics. You could say that OPM S1 is based on the manga (since there's not much difference between the manga and webcomic at that point, content-wise), but you can't say that Idaten is. No, I don't think that the fact it was a webcomic makes a difference. Maybe the author had more creative leaway? |

| My favorite is Vivy Flourite Eye and Steins;Gate |
| I guess i'd have to say Fate/Stay Night as a whole (encompassing all 3 Routes) since it's a visual novel adaptation. Though admittedly, i don't think i've watched many other shows that draw from that same medium, so it's not like i have a large enough sample pool to pick from anyway. |
