like how i always recommend white album whenever my friends ask me for romance/drama shows...

Why not White Album 2? Everyone says it's better.


objectively, white album 2 is a lot better than the first one. for some reason though, there was something about white album 1 that i enjoyed so much that i couldn't help but finish it in just two days. don't ask me how or why i enjoyed it though, because i honestly dont know either. i literally have no idea how i got so hooked LOL.

ALSO!!! Rumbling Hearts was really good, i ended up finishing that whole show in one sitting. i also would have recommended that show to all the romance/drama enjoyers out there :^)

Yes. If people don't like it it's their problem for not having proper knowledge.

Not really. Because I find that whenever I give recommendations, people usually say that they are not my cup of tea.

Life is empty without anime

if any girl ask for recommendations i generally name some slice of life or rom-com ,
if a guy ask for name something with plot heavy stuff ,
or if any homie asks for then definitely something WITH HEAVY "PLOT"(YOU KNOW),
simply I asks what's their mood to watch .............

Nobody has complained from my recommendations yet. Although when I share my opinion on what I like, people say I have shit taste. But somehow my recommendations are on point, weird how that works out don't you think.
Makes me wonder, if according to people my taste is shit, then what does that say about them, when they're happy with my recommendations.

I haven't watched so much anime yet, so I'm probably not that great.

Nah, I don't think so. I'm okay with suggesting the best anime out there, but anywhere out of that zone is a no go.

I have a friend who asks for recommendations but he never watches those shows because sadly he doesn't have much for that

I have still a relative shallow pool to pull from, as I continue to build my repertoire. Until I have a deep understanding of most genres and a breadth of overall knowledge re anime, I'll only remain okay at recommending. I need to watch another 15-20 shows before I feel more comfortable giving advice.

It depends on how much I know the person who is asking


Same here, but I say I'm average when it comes to anime recommendations. As I've seen alot of anime, it'll depends on how well I'll remember what anime I'll recommend.

Oh! Good question!

I believe so. I've gotten a few people to, at the very least, appreciate the medium if they never consumed it before. I remember recommending Love Live Sunshine to my professor and we were able to have wonderful talks about that series.

A few friends tend to ask me for something to watch too

I haven't watch it yet but i heard it is in same format as yosuga no sora, Amagami ss.

Are you fine with love triangle that include 2 girls or it has to more than 2 ?

It hurts when someone talk bad about yosuga no sora and that happens a lot, and i gave it a 10.

I know I am biased in what anime I watch and like, so I will answer if asked, but I am not good enough to recommend it to others myself.

In the meantime, when I recommend anime to others, MAL makes a judgment based on the ani-lists and favorites of the people I recommend. Even if it's something I've dropped or something I haven't seen because I don't like it, if I think it's to the recommender's liking, I'll recommend it. If I don't feel confident in my recommendation, I will be honest about it.

I also think that people who recommend only what they like to everyone else, without judging whether it suits the tastes of the person they are recommending, are poor recommenders.

Do you recommend shows that you personally do not like but think that someone else would like it?

If the person has a list I tend to be fairly good at giving recommendations that they like but even without a list as long as they have examples on what they've watched and enjoyed before I tend to be able to give them something they're interested in. I would say maybe 80% success rate. Most of my friends don't watch a ton of anime which means its very easy to give a rec they haven't watched. Generally, if I recommend something from the most recent season I know they haven't watched it cause non of the people I know follow ongoing series. 

When it comes to people who are new to anime and don't know what they like, I just give recommendations from multiple genres so they can see what interests them the most. If you give multiple choices, something will probably stick.

Of course I do. I would never recommend a show I've never watched. But just because I didn't like it, doesn't mean someone else might.

Fine I guess. The only person I've really given anime recs is my best friend IRL and I'd say she liked about 85-90% percent of them. However I can't say for sure how good I would be at giving recs to people I don't know.

The anime recommendations I give are always fantastic.

Whether or not the other person also thinks so is a bit hit or miss
