For those who like the "weird" types of anime

i made this list for ppl who wanna watch something weird and awesome and cool. hopefully stuff you won't see on many other lists. this is my 3rd time remaking this list, hopefully the mal mods will accept it lmfao

i'll keep editing this list as i watch more stuff
Heybot!
TV, 2016, 50 eps Me:- Author:10
Heybot is probably the weirdest anime you can find and that's exactly why it's so awesome. I made a review and a video about it.
Chouriki Robo Galatt
TV, 1984, 25 eps Me:- Author:8
This anime is like Heybot from the 80s. It's insane how similar they are in humour and pacing
Chikyuu Bouei Kazoku
TV, 2001, 13 eps Me:- Author:9
An anime filled to the brim with absurdity. I wrote a review about this if you're interested.

Popee the Performer
TV, 2000, 39 eps Me:- Author:10
2000s cgi mixed with crude humour makes for a surreal and bizarre experience. Popee is definitely a must watch if you like weird things. I wrote a review about this one if you're interested.

Medarot

one of the best looking kids series
Gregory Horror Show
TV, 1999, 25 eps Me:- Author:7
much like popee this is fully cgi and has horror elements, but unlike popee a lot of the horror comes from the mystery rather than crude gags/gore

TV, 2018, 76 eps Me:- Author:7

Chibi Maruko-chan: Watashi no Suki na Uta

people really like to call this an elitist anime lmfao. but if you're not someone who takes an issue with that, this is a really heartwarming film with some amazing animated sequences.
Kago Shintarou Anime Sakuhin Shuu
OVA, 2008, 15 eps Me:- Author:7
if you know kago shintarou then just imagine his art but as a collection of short stories. it's awesome

this is probably the most strange anime i've ever seen. definitely worth a try

amazing film
Kingyo Chuuihou!
TV, 1991, 54 eps Me:- Author:7
wacky goofy gag anime. has episodes made by Junichi Satou and Ikuhara. yes, this is one of the first anime they worked on together, and you can see how some of this influences the pacing and humour in Sailor Moon. there are even direct references to Kingyo Chuuihou in Sailor moon. Must watch for shoujo fans

Cipher

awesome
Sasurai-kun
