Too bad season 2 had to come around and ruin everything.

And the less said about the movie, the better.

Thoughts on this? I feel like it's the only anime on /TV/ I see praised.

It really does have a sort of "kino" feel to it. Especially the follow-up movie

It only streams on Netflix so maybe not that many people are watching it.

Love Live is popular right now but so are many other things like Osomatsu, Monogatari, Girls und Panzer, KonoSuba, and Oregairu.

About as often as I watch movies and TV shows, so pretty much every day. Don't keep up with too many currently airing shows, so basically just lurk /a/ to find things that sound interesting.

There are at least some Animes with positive non-degenerate moral backgrounds, like Dragon Ball Z; a bunch of healthy, friendly and honourable good guys trying to save the world and training all day to be a better version of themselves.

What non-degenerate Western Cartoons do exist tho? Everything out of Cartoon Network and such is absurd, hysterical and wouldn't be surprised if it's behind all the ADHD in the western kids. Have you recently seen a Western Cartoon of the 90's and early 2000's? It's all fast, nonsensical and confusing and it's full of hidden cultural marxist remarks. Ed, Edd & Eddy, Cow&Chicken, etc... it's utter overrated shit, it's stressful, I fucking sense my cortisol levels rise when I see this kind of cartoons. And the drawing sucks, characters barely resemble the human form and everyhing looks strange and foreign. The only good recent Western Cartoons are the ones focused more for adults (like Archer, South Park or Family guy) and others such as Adventure Time (which is actually low-paced, chilled out, has a nice moral background and has a logical progression inside it's fantasy world).
>>
I do but I have like literal 16 year old guy taste in I like jojo, hokuto no ken and berserk. I wouldn't say I consider them novelty but I just find them fun. I read actual shit like gogol 13 and all shitposting aside End of Evangelion is anime kino in the sense that it makes you question everything and whats on the screen is only as important as you make it but fuck it.

I wish I could enjoy sol/girly shit but it just makes me sick.

>>69075302
The thing about "degenerate" anime is that it almost never amounts to more than humorous titillation, and it's deliberately disconnected from reality (being animation instead of live action already does that to an extent). It's not like American TV where everything is meant to be serious and realistic and maximum edge.
>>
>>69075452

That space opera is a major undertaking.

I'm on episode 56.
>>
>>69075548
Ecchi Anime like Highschool DxD is actually less "degenerate" than any cartoon for kids in the Western World. Yes, there are boobies, but it's healthy and natural for a boy that age (protagonist) to be interested on that, I remember that age and we were all like Issei, and the background story is a group of friends who try to survive in a dangerous world by sacrificing themselves for each others if necessary. Friendship, honorability and sacrifice are exalted apart from sexuality. This kind of Animes, inside it's extreme fantasy and exaggerations are more relatable and realistic than shit like Ed, Edd & Eddy where it's protagonists on this kid's cartoons are borderline retarded role-models who have a toxic friendship with each other and everything is idiotic to the extreme without the explicit intention of being comedic.

And where can you find a Western Cartoon like Death Nothe? It's so easy to bash Anime because "muh weaboos" while we live in a society where Bronies, the Kardashians and adults with Bob Sponge tatoos exist.

Death Note is a great anime unless you watch it dubbed with the dumb American English voices. Americans are so stupid that they exude and spread retardation into everything they come in contact with.

American Death Note can be resumed with:

>>69077848
>Is there anything good?
That depends entirely on your definition of "good," and 12 years have passed since 2004. Even if we lowball the amount of shows that have been produced and remove inconsequential children's stuff and short anime, we're still talking about a thousand or so shows that have aired during that time.

>>69077916
Pandering has never been proven to exist, and if they were pandering to the lowest common denominator then they wouldn't be airing in the middle of the night and aimed at a niche audience. Weebs are also not a target audience, and even Westerners in general are not a consideration for most anime. And notice how you are talking not about the shows themselves but about who you think is watching them.

Moe and harem shows are completely harmless and the batshit crazy hysteria over them is just a meme gone wrong.
>>
>>69074420
Ye, last good full-length series for Gundam. I don't know how people justify liking SEED or even worse the new stuff like G-Reco.

Fair enough. I guess my favorite is GitS. Anything good like that?

There was a new GitS OVA series which was turned into a TV series, and then there was a movie after that. Psycho-Pass is somewhat similar to GitS.

But if you just want to endlessly rehash a single series then your options are limited.

Try Kaiji. It's not cyberpunk at all, but it's the sort of thing you'd like. It's a thriller about a poor man who tries gambling his way out of debt.

Most people seem to agree that Arise was kind of shit, but what little I've heard about the new movie suggests it's better.

Incidentally, Arise's writer also wrote season two of Psycho-Pass and that's considered shit too.

Pandering has never been proven to exist, and "fanservice" has been around since the 70s.

Out of all the shows I'm watching this season, I think only two or three have "fanservice" to speak of.
