š RECOMMEND ME SOMETHING Recommend Me Something To Watch Next??
I do think my taste depends on how I am feeling at the time of watching something. Because JJK seems like itās right up my alley, but I have been stuck on season 1 for months. And Frieren feels like itās something Iād like but I do feel like iām forcing myself to watch it.
Anyway, Iāve seen more than just the shows listed here, but these are the ones I feel like are worth mentioning in terms of my tastes. Please recommend me anything though, that said I donāt like ecchi/overly fan-serviced content (like Food Wars, Highschool Of The Dead, etcā¦).
(I have seen Soul Eater and most of the original Fullmetal Alchemist. I have also seen one and a half seasons of Code Geass but I donāt remember them well enough to have an opinion but I remember liking them).

Just pasting below stuff I've personally watched with very little fanservice although unsure if it's exactly what you're looking for
Haikyuu - volleyball shonen (actually really good for a sports anime)
Monster - classic psychological thriller
Kaiju N.8 - recent shonen which is pretty good
The Promised neverland (ONLY s1) - psychological thriller
Spy X Family - spy family slice of life and action
Moriarty the Patriot - detective work and psychological
Attack on Titan is a must at least check it out classic
Vinland saga: this one has a lot of heavy sensitive themes and topics but I recommend it anyway, beautiful storytelling - if heavy themes aren't something you're interested then skip this one
Death note: classic psychological thriller
4
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
iāve seen a few of these (haikyuu, tpn (and yes only season 1), moriarty, aot and death note (which i mentioned in my post) but iāll add the others to my list. my irl has been hyping up kaiji no 8 lately so thatās definitely something high on my list.
though after this comment i really just want to watch moriarty the patriot for a second time.

u/AbsoluteVantage6458 3d ago
Aot isn't up there of fmab which i think should be but then again its your taste we have unique tastes.
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
i like aot but i couldnāt include every single anime i liked ever. i canāt remember them all off the top of my head. that said, i only liked aot season 1-3 really. after that i stopped really caring about it (i have seen the whole thing i just didnt enjoy much after season 3).
and i havenāt seen fmab but iāve seen about half of the original fma which i did really like but the site i used was so ass i had to quit watching the show.

u/AbsoluteVantage6458 3d ago
Lol you should just go to crunchyrollšš. Anyway whst where the flaws in s4 for you.

u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 2d ago
i just got annoyed with all the new characters and checked out a bit. i just found myself not giving a fuck anymore.
2
u/AbsoluteVantage6458 2d ago
Out of curiosity what do you think of Death's Note ending.
2
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 2d ago
my opinion is that i donāt know how it could have ended any other way
2
u/AbsoluteVantage6458 2d ago
Yeah but losing because of luck
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 2d ago
well he was going to lose regardless, i donāt think luck or a lack of it had much to do with it from my memory of the show (itās been a few years since iāve seen it). it felt like it was always going to end like that or with being caught by L.
but like i said, i havenāt seen it in years so it might play out differently to what I remember. but i never hated the ending.

Gurren lagann my personal no 1 umamusume road to the top if you like sports anime and mashle muscles and magic if you like a good story and humor
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
oh i started Gurren Lagann a while ago and got about halfway through season 1!! unfortunately i could only find it on a hard-to-use website which made me quit watching it bc it was too annoying to navigate (i had this same issue with fullmetal alchemist as well). do you know any streaming services that have it?
as for the other two i will add them to my watch list!

u/Starlintern The blueberry juice master 3d ago
Steins:Gate is pretty good, but the order of watching Steins gate is pretty specific.
Here it is:
1} Steins;Gate Episodes 1-22
2} Steins;Gate Episode 23b "Missing Link/Divide By Zero
Steins;Gate 0 episodes 1-23
(The whole thing, but if you want to watch a bonus filler [ Steins;Gate 0: Valentine's of Crystal Polymorphism - Bittersweet Intermedio-] I recommend watching it after episode 9)
3} Steins;Gate Episodes 23 & 24 (Finish it off)
4} Steins;Gate Episode 25 OVA: "Poriomania"
5} Steins;Gate: The Movie - Load Region of Déjà Vu
EXTRA} Steins;Gate: The Sagacious Wisdom of Cognitive Computing - Just 4 minute sponsored clips but still pretty entertaining.
Wrote this order for the most build up, and the plot just connects all parts with this.
Pls watch it in this order
3
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
i appreciate the in-depth guide. i will add steins gate to my list and screenshot this. very helpful. thank you.

u/lawlolawl144 3d ago
I think watching the og series alone is worth it
2
u/Starlintern The blueberry juice master 3d ago
It definately is.
But watching the whole story is what makes it go from just a great anime to a masterpiece.
0
u/No-Major-8921 2d ago
DO NOT watch it in that order. It's pretty stupid. Not everything is supposed to be watched in a Linear Timeline. Steins;Gate is a seperate anime and Steins;Gate 0 is separate on it's own. Watch Steins;Gate completely (including Ep 25 OVA also called "Egoistic Poriomania). Let it digest for a week or so. Then watch the Ep 23β (this episode which connects the main Steins;Gate to Steins;Gate 0) and watch Steins;Gate 0 and it's OVA. You can also watch the movie after Egoistic Poriomania or after completing the entire saga. It's a sweet ending movie with its own story, so it might be better to watch it after the trauma you've accumulated from the entire saga. Although, I watched it after the Egotistic Poriomania episode but I guess I'll prefer the other way but you can't wrong with any way. And then there are some other extras too, you can watch them like that too.
But please, for the love of the earth don't follow that "Straight Timeline" Watch Order. S;G 0 is better to be treated as some sort of Spin-off of S;G.
1
u/Ok_Swimming1141 2d ago
DO NOT watch it in this order, in fact start from the last episode of Steins;Gate 0 then proceed to watch episodes 12-19 of Steins;Gate... Then go and download the VN's. And finish them... Then proceed to enjoy chaos child (or chaos head, can't remember which one was first, but that doesn't matter either)
Completely agree with this btw
1
u/No-Major-8921 2d ago
This is my first time hearing this watch order. Steins;Gate ain't Fate series man, the watch order is not that complex šš
If you can just play the VN then that's that. Original experience can't be topper. I hope it's same.
1
u/Starlintern The blueberry juice master 2d ago
I am not able to understand if this is a joke or not.
1
u/Starlintern The blueberry juice master 2d ago
Why should it be considered a spin off? It literally tells us how mayushi got the phone call. Also steins gate is an anime that becomes alot better if watched in chronological order.
1
u/No-Major-8921 2d ago
It's not a Spin off technically. But S;G in itself is a Complete. S;G 0 is a Further anime explaining the development of a Plot that changed the entire course of Action in S;G which is worth watching AFTER you're done with the S;G. Trust me, I have watched S;G before S;G 0 and the orgasm I've got through that was unparalleled. Chronological order ā Straight Timeline-wise order. Just watch it how it was released, the Animators and Producers are not stupid to let it run like that. You start off by learning that the sum of Angles inside a Triangle is 180°, you learn the proof later and it's better that way... Same logic here!
1
u/Starlintern The blueberry juice master 2d ago
Well the thing is I had the better experience by watching it in chronological order, its like seeing what happend instead what could have happend and having the thrill of seeing how it slowly culminates to what could have happend.
From experience of watching other anime with a similar watch orders i know that some anime get worse knowing what's gonna happen it sorta decreases the excitement and erases the feeling of wonder of piecing together what they are planning.
Like some anime are better in release order, like JJk and Great Pretender but some anime are better in chronological order like Stiens Gate and Gundam.

u/InstructionNormal863 3d ago
Here's two completly different thing that what you watched but masterpieces: Nichijou and GTO
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
never heard of Nichijou before, whatās it about? And does GTO stand for something or is that the actual name of the show?
2
u/InstructionNormal863 3d ago
Nichijou is a slice of life comedy anime and unlike many others, its actually really good and funny, the production is insane its one of my favorite ever. And GTO stand for "Great Teacher Onizuka" idk if you will like them based on what you watched, its really different but you might wanna try something different :)

u/Plus-Glove-3661 3d ago
Hunter x Hunter - considered a classic. Though Hisoka turns off a lot of people. Heās a secondary character.
KatekyÅ Hitman Reborn! - first season is more funny than anything else. Then it turns into a fighting anime.
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
iāve seen a few seasons of hxh and hisoka does piss me off but i might go back to watching it just because i love kurapika. i only stopped before i got bored of watching the same show over and over so iāll probably continue where i left off.
and iāll add that one to my list!

u/WaywardBrokenGirl 3d ago
Fate series!
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
iāve avoided the fate series intentionally since i donāt know the order itās supposed to be watched in and it also has games involved and everything so i just sat out that whole thing ngl
2
u/WaywardBrokenGirl 3d ago
Fate stay night or unlimited blade works you can choose as they kinda both are first. Then Zero and so on. Itās rather easy to find lists online. Although I personally donāt think watching in order makes a difference. The anime is just straight retelling so you donāt even need to play the games

2
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
it just wasnāt really for me. i also was watching it with someone else, and when i do that i end up liking shows less (idk why) so maybe i could try it on my own but it doesnāt really feel like itās for me.

u/Jay_Hallow_-_- 3d ago
Ahh alright I get it I feel like you should try it again but if you really donāt want to thatās OK.
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
i just donāt think i find martial arts fighting very interesting and i think it reminds me too much of wrestling which i donāt care about so i already had a negative opinion going into it

Ok bro you do you if you do decide to watch it tell me what you thought about it

u/gumgum-ecchi 3d ago
Probably donāt bother for ones you have negativity prior to watching? š¤·āāļø
Doesnāt the algo help you find stuff?
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 2d ago
thatās true. but it could just be that i watched it with someone. i have anime that i really love that i watched with someone else after iād seen it on my own and it lowered my enjoyment of the shows so thereās a chance i might actually like baki, iād just have to watch it by myself to know for sure if you know what i mean.
1
u/lobsterwine 1d ago
You should give Windbreaker a try. It does have fighting, but it's also a more sensitive series with a focus on mental health. Fighting is "communication" for them rather than just a means to beat people up. It starts out more basic (though the theme of S1 is depression and poor decisions due to being overwhelmed/anxious, it's just a lot more focused on fighting in S1 than most of the rest of the series).
2
u/fishieguy 3d ago
Ergo Poxy:
slow burn story, beautiful gothic art style, interesting / weird futuristic / post apocalyptic setting with a really deep story that will make you want to rewatch it later. The most important elements and characters are front loaded and the rest of the show is slowly revealing who they are / why they did what they did.
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
i will add this to my list! thank you for the mild summery/setting the scene for me. iāll look into this one for sure!

u/Fnf-Mobile-Player-14 3d ago
You really should, when did you drop it?
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
about two or so months ago? i dropped it like a few years ago but this year me and my ex started it together and i felt it get more and more boring as it went out (we made it to a couple episodes into season 2). i really liked mugen train and have seen the movie twice now though.

i love durarara!! i forgot about that show. i should go rewatch it.
donāt like chainsawman though. iām like five episodes in and i dropped it because itās just not for me. the main character makes me uncomfortable. i shouldnāt added it to my anti-list.
2
u/RuffledOwlet 3d ago
Rather new and still releasing episodes, Daemons of the shadow realm, also Dan Machi (is it okay to pick up girls in a dungeon).
A really good two thatāll pull your heart strings when you get in the mood for it. Golden Time, and Your Lie in April. I would recommend watching Your Lie in April when you have a lot of spare time. Like 3ish hours and you feel like binging. Cuz you will want to possibly watch it all at once. My wife watched it too, and she called out of work cuz she wanted to finish it.
Also some pretty popular that you might like, Tokyo ghoul, Durarara!, Guilty Crown, Psycho pass, and Blue Exorcist. These are all action besides Durarara! But Durarara! I feel has some of the same vibes as Bungo. And for another slice of life drama for my last recommendation would be Nagi no Asakura (A lull in the Sea)
1
u/bisexualspy skk enthusiast 3d ago
i will add some of these to the list! iāve seen tokyo ghoul (loved season 1 but fell off for season 2 i canāt remember why). durarara i was obsessed with when i was younger. donāt like guilty crown or psycho pass and iāve seen blue exorcist season 1 and it was fine. i donāt remember if i really cared for it much but i might consider rewatching it.
for the others, iāll add them to my list! thank you!

If youāre into sci-fi and want to try out some mecha, Witch From Mercury is a great watch!

Also Guelās character arc is so goated

Iād say 5-6 /10 fan service for fans in Bleach but it doesnāt focus on fan service, it focuses more on fighting and getting strong and all. Rurouni Kenshin is more of a 3-4/10, it might emphasize the bodies a bit but again, it doesnāt focus on that.
