Is it because you like the pleasure of having watched something that not many other people have? How would you know that? You've seen such a small amount of anime that you can't really define your tastes yet. You should be watching anime based on the quality of them, not the dates they were made. |

Don't know that other one. Didn't check your list, was just thinking of the best post-2000 anime that come to mind. Haibane Renmei is the most complete 13-episode long anime I've ever watched. Same creator as SEL. |

| MAL is not a place to ask such things, at least not these public forums. And not all post 00 are "moe" and stuff. It is a great era up to 2008. |
JohnDavis32 said: Im interested. I might not seem like it but im actually pretty well rounded in terms of what anime ill watch.Hey dude, what kind of anime are you after, I can try to recommend you a list of the best 20+ anime titles per year to come out since 2007 to 2012. That is of course if you are interested. (Note, I don't follow the norm when it comes to anime) Though I do see your nostalgia for old anime series, that is for sure. xD |

BlackSabotage said: Well they think of you, like most of the other old anime rules users like MajinSaga, 9989(or whatever), nekovision, and Plusme who say stuff like that often. So because you like older anime the most, most people group you in with those other ones who say stuff like that.Obviously I know its not all moe and sol. Do you guys really think I think that? |

| The more you expand your taste, the easier it will be to find an anime to watch. So the answer is an obvious yes. |
 "Only one with the courage to shoulder the burden of their own fate can be called a hero.." |
| That's a big ass list. Thanks. |

JohnDavis32 said: I kinda feel pathetic caus I have such a small anime list :bBlackSabotage said: That's a big ass list. Thanks. You will not believe the amount of time, I spend researching looking for anime to watch. Now there is a good chance that you wont like all of it, but I'll leave that up to you. xD |
|
| OP. Why not try Redline (2009)? It's basically a modern anime but with 80s/90s aesthetics and pack full of cyberpunk, hot-blooded actions and non of those "modern cliches" that's probably more close to your taste. Also. I don't understand why anyone here who prefer old-school anime automatically get's dismiss as "nostalgia fanboy" even that I'm not one of those anime veteran who has been watching for more than 10 years. |
| Yes, it's always good to expand your horizons, even in genres you don't like to try and find a stand out. |

MajinSaga said: Durarara!! is awesome. Dubbed only of course. Don't bother with the japanese version. don't do that dubs in that are shit. well most of dubs are shit but i recommend you watch it in japanese |

JohnDavis32 said: If you're referring to moe, harem and mecha, they've all been major parts of the industry since the early 1980s. I'm referring to things like weak male lead, emo characters, tsundere, annoying females, school girls fetish, MMO reference and other modern "nerdy" stuff. And no, I love mecha. It's actually a dying genre since year 2000. I don't how to describe modern anime industry and why I don't like it in general. It seems like "fappability" in anime is now officially more important than actually having good contents. |

| Wouldn't hurt to try something different. |
| I'm in like the complete opposite situation you're in. Ive been wondering if I should expand my taste and watch some of those -2000 anime. -o- |

Well, I tried Cowboy Bebop before because of it's a "masterpiece" by most people's standards. It wasn't bad, but most of the episodes were rather boring IMO Holy shit, Cowboy Bebop is a -2000 anime!? Ive had it on my PTW list for years now and always thought it was still pretty recent. *facepalm* LOL |
