I'll need help selecting an Anime that's VERY VERY colorful my retinas would burn. Any genre is okay, Mecha less recommended.
Only condition is it must not include as many fanservices as an Anime like HenNeko and Noucome would include (dropped the latter, regret completing the former). This means it can not be ecchi too. G recommended, and PG would be better (PG-13 is okay but condition applies). Beyond is not accepted (not even ampzz will accept it).
Do you want Aikatsu!? because it seems like you are requesting Aikatsu!
Heartcatch Precure
Dog Days maybe.... not
Acchi Kocchi
Shugo Chara

A friend recommended Aikatsu! but its length...
A Precure after all xD
Near-dropped Dog Days, restarting it
Did you read my Acchi Kocchi review? :P (see my userpage for this--I didn't expect Acchi Kocchi to be a suggestion)
Shugo Chara...one of my gf's sisters has a real-life folder dedicated to this Anime. I didn't expect this in Egypt xD

Starting with Heartcatch Precure! because 49 episodes of PG epicness. Added Shugo Chara! and Aikatsu! (for real this time) too. gj TV Tokyo, a channel dedicated to people of such tastes like me xD I love you

Why are you asking for anime when there are like 4 of those generic harem shounens airing this season?

So I'm coming off of crying after Mirai Nikki's ending. I would like something along the lines of that and other examples might be (Guilty Crown, Zetsuen No Tempest, BTOOOMM!!!) I love gore, action with romance involved. I love that combination. Doesn't necessarily need gore. Just at the least action and romance.


EDIT: It would be preferable if it was canon, I hate it when the writers puts around the fact that the two love eachother. Passionate outspoken love it good, I may be a guy but I got my soft spots.

Have a feeling a lot of people have heard of these buttt
If you're looking for a pile of feels
- Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai
- Clannad (After Story)
- Shuffle! (Similar to Clannad in that it's supposed to be a harem, but not really)
More Recently Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso I think is really good. Made me feel really sad watching it... maybe it's just cause I don't have real friends haha.
Also the Steins;Gate Movie came out subbed not too long ago if I remember correctly. It's really good and concludes the series.
Tokyo Ravens is not too recent but it's surprisingly really good, kind of obscure and not too many feels but they're in there somewhere.

Also looking for suggestions for more "feely" anime hehe

No they don't. Shuffle is pretty bad but nothing worse than what you included in your original request.

Of course i did. Because its Pony Canyon, Sentai Filmworks and TBS works on it (there more actually). I like they works
Its fun to watch it, they have right proportion on mixing School-Comedy-SoL
Come with light humor, its easy to enjoy it (even if you're not an otaku)

I can't say it is super interesting. It's more like an ecchi harem comedy anime with little story that starts to get interesting and really progress in first darkness, which is like 2rd or 3rd season of the serie. But i quite enjoyed it when i liked ecchi animes. You can give it a try and see for yourself.

Skip to Darkness. You don't really need to watch the prequels because nothing really happened that is important. But even in Darkness, they almost removed Lala by giving the others more screentime for the sake of the "story".

You might as well watch like the intro episode for To-love-Ru. From there I'd say jump to Motto! It's short and conveys the style of the first season well and will get you familiar with the characters before jumping into Darkness.

Can anyone suggest me a comedy anime. More specifically, slapstick comedy.

Something with comedic elements that's also present in Nichijou and Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou.

Full Metal Panic for Full Metal Panic Fumoffu
Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei
Eyeshield 21
Working!

-I'm currently watching Working!
-I plan to watch the whole Full Metal Panic series sometime soon.
-I've heard about Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei. Would you say the comedy is comparable to, say, Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou?
-Eyeshield 21 seems interesting. I might watch it in the future, though I have a bad history when it comes to animes with a lot of episodes.

Also, I forgot to mention, animes that parodies anything is welcomed. :p

The characters and their situations are generally pretty absurd like nichijou but the series often comes back to satire, while Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou was specifically school life Zetsubou-Sensei covers a much broader range of topics.

With loli spamming you mean things like precure and such? Then I know what you mean.
Here some that would match that description:

mahouka koukou no rettousei
darker than black
inou battle wa nichijou kei no naka de
log horizon
bakemonogatari, nisemonogatari, etc.
imawa no kuni no alice (through it's quite short)
rokujouma no shinryakusha

What the hell is wrong with Precure? Atleast I watch the show before I criticise it like that garbage Mahouka. The rest is above average atleast.

I recommend trying:
-Shinsekai yori
-Shiki
-Deathnote
-Katanagatari
-Atleast the Nanoha movies
-Wolf Children

Nothing against Precure, just wanted to confirm what he meant. But let's not discuss that here.



Forgot to mention Code Geass for the supernatural genre.

ef, Little Busters!, One Week Friends, Kanon (2006), Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, Myself Yourself, Sora no Method

What I recommend the most from the above are both the ef seasons (a tale of memories & a tale of melodies).
But the most extreme, I would say is Kimi ga Nozomu Eien. Pure Hell for your kokoro.

This was kinda like school days to me. A shitty situation that could have easily been avoided if the protagonist wasn't so stupid.

Watch it by release order. Bake > Nise > Neko Kuro > Monogatari S2 > Hana > Tsuki. Kizu never.

Ore Monogatari and Katanagatari are not related to Monogatari series just in case although Katanagatari is also made by Nisio Isin.

I think that claymore is in my opinion one of the best out there, they had a kinda badish ending, but the anime itself was amazing. However claymore is not really as well know as say FMA, Naruto, Soul Eater, etc.. But those of you out there who like animes like bastard or those types of anime then you will like this, it is a pretty depressing anime at times, but i think that just makes it even better, I hope that anyone who has not tried this anime give it a shot. :DD

Don't forget osu!, EBA and Ouendan were all inspired by the Cory in the House video game for DS, the franchase is amazing on all fronts.

I don't think many experienced fans would agree with you at all. I would probably never recommend any of those even if someone asked for shounen series.

I've just finished Aldnoah Zero and... well, the end didn't feel quite right to me. It's as though the studio in charge didn't want to risk anything at the end. The series was entertaining enough though.

So, do you have any good animes in mind that aren't Mahou Shoujo nor mecha nor anything particularly sad (boy I watched Little Busters! last week and I don't feel like watching something as feelsy as this any time soon xD) ? Just a good show. Else I'm just going to pick the monogatari series up again. That or Nichijou.

My issue is rejecting shows purely on their genre alone, if it's a good anime who cares what it's about. Sure you can feel in a specific mood for a type of show but you shouldn't reject Gurren Lagann because you didn't like Gundam because they have the common theme of mecha or rejecting Madoka because they didn't like Moetan or Sailormoon.
I personally think requests should focus on the types of shows you want not the ones you don't.
Probably the only things you can opt out of is violence and sexual content IMO but they aren't genres.

I have nothing against mahou shoujo, nor mecha nor anything else. I just happen to have watched animes of these genres lately and wanted something else. I enjoy most genres. Quit jumping to conclusions so fast. :|

So I decided to give the Fate series (Fate/stay night & Fate/Zero) a shot after considering it for 3 years.

How would I watch the series? Should I watch it chronologically? I've also heard that the studio Deen adaptation was bad.

Just watch Fate/Zero first then move onto the Fate/Stay night unlimited blade works series that is still ongoing

I finished watching the Monogatari series and now I have that big hole in my heart and that emptyness, that feeling of lack of reason to live and all that happens when you know that it ended, that you will never watch it again the same way you did the first time...

Anyway, are there any animes that are similarly awesome? Say at least 10% as awesome, since asking for more than that would be unthinkable, of course.

No seriously, anything highly based on dialogues and profound stuff like that?

You could try and wait for Kizumonogatari. Which is the prequel movie to the whole Monogatari series.

No, Fate/Stay night is based off of a visual novel and like all visual novels they have multiple routes.
The Studio Deen adaptation animates the "Fate" route but they do it very poorly and that's why it is shit.
The new series being animated by Ufotable adapts the "Unlimited Blade works" route.
The story of Fate/Zero is completely original all together and acts as a prequel to Fate/Stay Night

I can't even remember why Deen Fate/Stay Night is shit. I only watched it once, ages ago. It did get kinda harem-y.
lol yeah, tbh I can't remember either. I just remember it being shit and Shiro saying, "People die when they are killed!"
I think the main reason I didn't like it was that I didn't like Shiro as a main character

I think I will always prefer Fate/Zero even to the new one. Fate/Stay Night just feels like a galge alot of the time and the competition involved in Fate/Zero feel/are significantly more qualified to fight over the holy grail. Kiritsugu is also more GAR than Archer in F/SN.

I agree with you entirely. Kiritsugu is a great main character compared to Shiro's whiny ass always going on about justice, all the servants are given better development in Fate/Zero while in Fate/Stay Night I could care less about most of them. I give all the credit to Gen Urobuchi for making Fate/Zero shine brighter

I knew I recognized those two characters from somewhere in a recent anime.

Thanks!

Speaking of which, I just finished it and...

What can I say, it's definitely become one of my favourite animes. Them feels. Also, it's got piano and violin, so it's all the more for me.

People still need to stop treating it as the saddest thing ever.

Despite being my favourite part the series they should have removed the arc with Nagi and replaced it with one with Kaori, as that point is the high point of the whole series since that's the only performance where Arima essentially isn't fighting inner demons and would juxtapose significantly better with the later tragedy since Kaori would be involved. The alternative would be 37 episodes but that length is a turn off point for people.

The series is great I give it ~9/10, shame anime companies don't even try to reach this standard at all.

I think some scenes were too dragged out, and there were a few things repeated over and over.
Furthermore, I dislike the whole character of Tsubaki. Most of the part she is stupidly selfish and annoying.
Despite that it was still a good Anime, but it is definately not overly sad like many people say it is.

The funny thing is Tsubaki would be popular if she was in a harem anime or any series that doesn't strive to have any kind of quality.

I'm not sure about that. But I agree that her character would fit more into that genre.

Hey don't make me say stuff I didn't say. It's not "up there" feels-wise (After Story takes that spot, followed by Little Busters, still haven't watched Ano Hana and... what was it again... Whatever.), but I definitely got "those" feelings up in my chest. I think I did tear up, but I didn't actually cry like I did for Clannad AS, hell no.

I'd give it the same score, but that's purely because I don't believe in perfection, heheh. A friend of mine told me not to talk about the show to anyone except huge anime lovers for "it's one of those rare treasures which make anime what it is". I wish more companies were willing to go that far.

As to Nagi's part, well, I have my own idea as to why they decided to do this part (heck it's more or less explained later by Hiroko) but it's true that their intent was not very clear.
Anyway, the show was well worth my time.

Not referring to you specifically but the amount of people who were constantly saying "The feels.." and "This series will break my soul" etc got on my nerves.

Not strictly steampunk but these are probably up your alley/what you are looking for:

Wolf's Rain
Patema Inverted
Afro Samurai has bits
Ghibli stuff like Laputa
Pale Cocoon
Texhnolyze
Ergo Proxy

Wow nice list, though most of them are more dystopian/cyberpunk than steampunk.

Aria series. Animation > Natural > Arietta > Origination is the order.

If you enjoyed them, Avvenire is coming up this year.
