So hey how about that TTGL

I'll watch mine if you watch yours. Then I'll show you mine if you show yours.

Deal.

I'll finish TTGL first even.


Then maybe later we can do the second thing......

Have you seen all the OVA's? There are a good few of them. Might be in there.

Yeah, I have. There aren't any OVAs between S2 and S3, only a special that's a spin off.

Anyone who's seen a lot of anime knows that Code Geass is still in a league of it's own. One of the best anime ever made. It doesn't matter how mainstream it is, what matters is that it's fucking good.

Code Geass was good, but it's definitely not in a league of its own. I wouldn't even put it in my top 50.

Inu x Boku SS is amazing. It's the best Romcom I've ever seen.

Please. There are many better romcoms. Inu isn't even a good example of romcoms.

Madoka the series is overrated, the movie (which is the picture) isn't.

The movie was just as overrated at the series was.

Monogatari is good as fuck. You just have to be able to understand dialog.

I'll refrain from saying what I really feel about Monogatari because it would be extremely offensive to its fans, but comprehension of Monogatari's dialogue doesn't make it any less of an overrated show.

S;G is fucking great. It shows that action isn't necessary for a brilliant story. Tbh I think action can degrade a story immensely.

I think that was fairly obvious, long before S;G ever came out.

Wow that hurts.

InuBoku is the definition of a (supernatural) romcom.

I was more going for the "newcomers list" aspect rather than overratedness, those discussions always turn out amazingly...

One Piece is definitely a newcomer's show, but Spice and Wolf and Mushishi are assuredly not. Both of their popularity is largely relegated to people who are already anime fans.

Again, what do we class as a newcomer?

[Hemoglobin]

The romance isn't prevalent enough for me to consider it a romcom in the truest sense.

I'm pretty sure one of the few anime new fans of animu watch is indeed Spice and Overratedness.

[Zatheyll]

Something that's big in America, spread fast by word of mouth, you can find merch of it easily at conventions, t-shirts of it can be on sale online on English websites, and something that would appeal to a person very new to anime.



The biggest newcomer show out there is probably Full Metal Alchemist. (Not counting endless, which I don't)

[Suicidal Panda]

nothing can be classified as a newcomer imo. a friend I sent into anime (that has a broad mind) skipped all the cliche starting on endless shounen and has already watched SG, madoka, haganai, and a few others I can't remember. (my previous belief was "starters" get into it on endles shounen then slowly expand)

There's more romance in InuBoku than the average romcom. An immense amount.

Good portions of each episode are them cuddling up or finding stuff to do together.

Well, S&W got a dub.

Not even in your top 50, yet you have OreImo in your top 10?

Man...

[Hemoglobin]

Again, what do we class as a newcomer?

Shows like Cowboy Bebop, Code Geass, Death Note, Naruto, FMA: Brotherhood, etc. The shows that are largely the face of popular Western anime from the view point of someone completely new to the medium. There are exceptions of course, but most people starting out in anime aren't starting with the Haibane Renmeis or the Gankutsuous.

[Deleted]

I can't help but giggle when I hear the same person who puts One Piece or OreImo in top 10 classify Code Geass as "Not even top50".

[Digglett]

This is pretty old, too lazy to make a new one. I'd only make a few changes now though. Jojo or Monogatari would probably be somewhere. I dunno where. Meduka would include Rebellion, and Utena is the series - not the movie. Not sure why I used the movie picture.

I'd probably replace Jinrui and Azazel with those. Though, Azazel is probably my favorite comedy anime still.

[Hemoglobin]

Not even in your top 50, yet you have OreImo in your top 10?

Man...

Yep. I liked OreImo a lot.

I love that show even if it's like the worst I've ever seen.
Actually I should scrap that, Kill me Baby is the worst show I've seen by miles.
