[quote=@NobodiesHero] [@The Mad Hatter] Blood+ is my favorite anime. It's pretty dark and deals with some touchy subjects. But is an amazing series over all. It's a bit slow so give it about three or four episodes to catch your interest. [/quote] I don't know that one. I like myself some dark, twisted stuff, so I'll definitely check it out. [quote=@Halvtand] I just have to see that something something (dark side) of the iron fortress. I've seen some gifs and it looks really nice. Supposed to have a good storyline as well. For a recommendation I have to say Basilisk, high-grade ninja action in there. I love it. But I did not have to see Berserk '17, blärgh. [/quote] Just had a look at it. It seems awesome. Is it made over a game? 'Cause when I searched for it, a bunch of game stuff came up. Basilisk is one of the animé I have previously skipped past due to not liking the art style, so I'll definitely have a look at that. My brother, and not the one you would expect, swears by the Beserk series. He loves it with a passion usually only seen in French artists. [quote=@Yuuta] [@The Mad Hatter] I second [@Halvtand]'s recommendation of Basilisk. Violent, great animation, and not too long. Some other stuff I recommend: If you haven't already seen Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, that's always my first recommendation for people getting into anime. It's got great animation, great story, great action, and a good English Dub. If you have a Netflix account, they have the full series there. Make sure you watch Brotherhood, and not the original, though. The original Fullmetal Alchemist is good, but brotherhood is much better. If you want something weird, check out Paranoia Agent (Mousou Dairinin). It's a psychological thriller that's hard to describe without giving away spoilers, but there are some stand alone episodes that are just amazing. Episode 8 happens to be one of my favorite episodes in all of anime, but only if you enjoy morbid humor. If nothing else, check out that one episode. My favorite anime of all time is Clannad (and season two, Clannad After story). This holds the distinction of being the only work of fiction to ever make me cry. And we're not talking just getting a little watery-eyed, we're talking full-on tears rolling down my cheeks. Season one is a high school drama, but season two actually continues on after high school, which is really nice to see in an anime. If you want a superb story-driven anime, check out Guardian of the Ancient Spirit (Seirei no Moribito). The unique thing about this one is that it's got a female protagonist who is 1.) not a magical girl, and 2.) never succumbs to shameless fan service. This anime has an incredible story. The action is sparse, but when it's there, it's awesome. If you want to see the most fascinating anime villain of all time, check out Monster. Warning, this series is LONG. Like 80+ episodes. But, if you can commit, it's definitely worth it. A brain surgeon chooses to save the life of a child over the life of an important politician because the child was admitted first. This hurts his career, and several years later, the doctor finds out that this child has grown up to be a homicidal sociopath. This anime is definitely character driven and revolves around what makes the villain tick. Looking for sci-fi? Watch Steins;Gate. It's one of the few depictions of time travel that gets it right. No illogical time paradoxes here. It's clever, suspenseful, and has fantastic characters. Check it out. And, if you're just looking for people beating the shit out of each other, check out Hajime no Ippo. It's boxing. It's good. It's ongoing. When you've exhausted these, I've got plenty more for you, but I don't wanna overwhelm you. [/quote] I DID watch Fullmetal Alchemist, both the "original" and Brotherhood. As far as I understand, Brotherhood is actually original since that is the one that follows the manga, whilst the "orginal" passed the manga and just made its own shit up to keep the animé going. I liked Brotherhood. I was ust terribly disappointed when the world DIDN'T end... I felt the same way after Naruto used his magical sob-story to make Nagato remake Konoha after obliterating it. I'll check out Paranoia Agent. I like weird shit, as long as it doesn't get too weird. I usually steer away from High School drama series for several reasons. The most prominent one being that we don't have High School or anything really like it in Denmark (where I come from) so I can't really relate to it and it just feels a bit awkward. Also, I don't cry. Well, I didn't used to. I've only ever cried while being pregnant, at which point I cried about everything, like a cartoon dog dying and when someone close to me has died or almost died. Recently, though, it does seem that my human emotions have started to awaken. I cried at some sad movie a while ago. I think it was just the fever I was running, but I can't be certain 'til more experiments have been conducted. Seirei no Moribito does sound intriguing. I'll check it out. Also, I'm not exactly [i]against[/i] fanservice >.> I tried watching Monster. I really did. I made it to episode 30-something, but it sucked out my soul. I did plan to just take a break from it and start watching again, but then too much time had passed and I couldn't really remember what had happened and stuff and then I didn't (watch it, that is). Now it's been years and I just can't take the thought of starting from the top again. I watched some of Steins;Gate and then some IRL shit went down and I never got around to finishing it. I'll definitely do that, at some point. I defiantly don't like stuff like that. Boxing isn't my thing at all. In fact, sports in general kinda make me want to puke. I'll be back when I've watched these xD [quote=@LordVoldemort] [@The Mad Hatter] Gotta agree with Yuuta on Paranoia Agent and Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. You should also check out JoJo's Bizarre Adventure if you're into some crazy shit as well. The seasons tend to change into a different style. For example, Part 1 is more horror based, while Part 4 is kind of like a team of investigators in a small town. If you've played Persona, Part 3 and onward will remind you of it. [/quote] That actually sounds really interesting. Kinda like American Horror Story, then, but without the change of characters? [quote=@Afro Samurai] Link to the Discord is not working for me. Are you still accepting characters? [/quote] We had to close it down, due to random people joining. We'll give you a temporary link in PM, if you want. And yes, we technically are still accepting.
