Are there any animes or TV shows you can't stop recommending?

I have yet to watch the second season since I think the animation is absolutely beautiful and want to see it at its height from a BD rip. Its been a while since I watched it but I remember it ending in a hopeful tone, even if all problems weren't solved it still seemed like it would mostly work out with time. Contrasts are really central in this series I feel, from chill and happy to sad and hopeless, nothing captures that more than the exquisite soundtrack no doubt!

I can however recommend the two OVAS that come after the second season (tho one is a prequel), those were pretty nice too!

Btw, it makes me seriously happy that not only you took my recommendation but also really liked it so thank you very much

I'll probably give season 2 a shot. As far as I gather, it's almost caught up with the manga? I'm kinda considering to just read it but maybe I'll go for the anime if it's close to caught up anyway.

Btw have you watched Steins;Gate? Perhaps now that I've humoured your suggestion, you could humour mine :)

So here is the thing, I heard about it but, I tried to watch it 3 times. Every single time I get to episode like 4 and Im bored out of my mind, and I haaaate the main character.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Ah okay haha. It's important to like the main character as he's in every scene of the whole thing basically.

I will say... it kind of intentionally makes him annoying at the start, which makes for some good development of his character later. But he won't change completely I suppose. It does start slow, but it will really take off if you get about half-way, and I mean really take off. The first half and the second half are markedly different. You have to enjoy the mystery and just the interactions between the characters as a kind of slice-of-life thing in the start of the anime.

It's alright, maybe it just isn't your genre or your thing. Still my personal favourite of all time, but I am a sucker for that kind of story.

[–] Dagnet 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I do wanna try it again, maybe. Its just really difficult getting past that start. From what I know about Steins Gate, you might like Summer Timer Render, its the same theme I think, and unlike Steins Gate, you will know if you gonna enjoy it from the first episode

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Finished season 2 of Ancient Magus Bride. I think the first part of season 2 is okay but it got boring for me at the end. Too many other characters that I honestly don't care much for and too few scenes with Chise and Elias together, which is what I feel the story is truly about. Episode 6 is amazing though, maybe even the best episode of the whole show so far.

Will check out Summer Time Rendering next! Do let me know if you ever give Steins;Gate another shot.

Ah cool, I kinda feel like I have to now, since you are gonna watch 2 of my recs
