| Hey, I'd like to know if there are other anime with an original artstyle that I haven't seen yet. The animation doesn't have to be really appealing or likeable at the first sight, it just has to be somehow extraordinary. From those that I've watched and liked: Mononoke, Gankutsuou, Bakemonogatari, Tatami Galaxy, Revolutionary Girl Utena, xxxHOLiC. I don't mind older series. I don't care about the genre too. Thanks in advance! |

| Off the top of my head, there's Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls and Nichijou. Of the two, Hyakka Ryouran has the more extraordinary art style, in my opinion, anyway. ^^ |

| Bakemonogatari doesn't really have an unusual artstyle, just an unusual execution of dialogue. Unusual artstyles, that's kinda difficult. I guess Kaiji has an unusual artstyle, with the nose. Other than that, I mostly know manga. You could try Bakuman, where the manga had rotating artstyles (a rather gag style when they were making a gag manga, more serious when making serious manga), but I don't remember much about the anime. |

| OreShura doesn't have unusual artstyle but it was brighter more than any other anime. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Shiki for the insane character designs! |

I'm looking forward for the realistic depiction of the characters. I hate the moe shit that is appreciated nowadays. yhunata said: Bakemonogatari doesn't really have an unusual artstyle, just an unusual execution of dialogue.

To me, Bakemonogatari had definitely unusal art style. The dialogues are other thing. Kaiji is on my PTW as well as Bakuman, I don't read manga often though, but I guess I could give it a try since it's from the creators of DN. |

| Come to think of it, Mushibugyo also has an artstyle which I've not seen much in anime 2008-onwards. |
|
| Oh! Now that I think about it, Black Rock Shooter has an unusual artstyle. |

| Katanagatari it is by the same dude genius that created Bake ,Nisio, Isin. -Bakuman doesn't have any unusual art style ._. those little gag comedy faces don't count tons of manga have it. |
Arararraragi-kun said: -Bakuman doesn't have any unusual art style ._. those little gag comedy faces don't count tons of manga have it. I wasn't talking about that. The artstyle of the manga itself varied depending on what manga they were creating at the time. I don't remember about the anime, but the manga had a rotation artstyle. |

Then I wouldn't know I only read the last chapters when the subs were getting slow. |
| Katanagatari looks good. Already seen Shiki and Black Rock Shooter (BRS was shit though). Oreshura and Mushibugyo looks pretty generic, but with the second one, I might as well try it after it finishes airing. |

| There is Shinsekai Yori. |
| Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Hmmm try Kaiba |
| How about Soul Eater? |

| Cool, I've added quite a few interesting looking titles to my PTW, thanks everyone. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |
| I'm not well versed in anime but from what I've seen I'd recommend Angel's Egg. It's similar to Fantastic Planet, both the music and and art style are fairly somber and unusual. |
| Just about anything directed by Yuasa Masaaki and Nakamura Kenji. ie. Kaiba and Mononoke etc. |

| If you liked Bakemonogatari you must watch EF- Tale of.. from your PTW . http://myanimelist.net/anime/2924/ef_-_a_tale_of_memories. http://myanimelist.net/anime/4789/ef_-_a_tale_of_melodies. |
| NANA had some really different & unusual art in my opinion. Very original. |
| Oban Star Racers |
| Casshern Sins Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt Soul Eater Kimba the White Lion Katanagatari |
| Gankutsuou Natsuyuki Rendezvous (has art relation so I found it to be an unusual style) Cossette no Shouzou (very dark, but the art is very unusual) Shigurui |
