Ight robots, so i need some advice really - when it comes to anime yes i am a normie never really got into it until lately the thing is i can only stand to watch english dub and it has to be really good. Any suggestions?
I have seen the following (and liked)
- Sword Art Online I & II (9/10)
- Attack on Titan (10/10)
- Death Note (10/10)
- Tokyo Ghoul (8/10)
- Absolute Duo (6/10)
- Black Butler (4/10)
- Code:Breaker (8/10)
- The Future Diary (5/10)
Watch initial d and then an hero, Anime doesn't get any better then that so just fucking die
>>27876521
well you seem to have absolutely shit normie taste but i'd recommend you baccano if you like good english dubs. the english dub of baccano completely blows the japanese dub out of the water.
>>27876521
cowboy bebop
samurai champloo
both of those have great dubs
you should start to appreciate subtitles though
>>27876521
Cowboy bebop and kill la kill are pretty good
>>27876521
>- Sword Art Online I & II (9/10)
>- fucking Attack on Titan (10/10)
>- Death Note (10/10)
>- Tokyo Ghoul (8/10)
plebest taste you normalcunt, anyone who post in here unironically does not deserve to watch good anime
>>27876521
you have pretty shit taste mate, you will fucking love code geass, it will be 10/10 for you.
>>27876521
>dub
>dub
Koi Kaze.
try Psycho Pass
it's pretty good, and normalfags love it
For those complaining about his selection what's wrong with death note specifically i particularly liked it, while i am into manga specifically it was one of the few animes i enjoyed
>>27876792
The "Everyone is a supergenius and foil to eachother" trope got seriously run into the ground. Death Note would have been a much better story if it had a cast of people of average or lesser intelligence writing the names down and trying to pull stuff off.
>rating SAO and AoT near perfect
>Future Diary 5/10
what?
they might as well have just called attack on titan yellow on brown because that's all it goddamn was
>>27876614
>>27876626
These are good, and the dubs are OK but I'd recommend subs
Berserk is another good one as well as Evangelion (both have good dubs, again though watch in subs), and if you want a series going on right now JoJo's just started like the 5th season I think, so if you want to catch up on that it's pretty entertaining
I'd recommend subs on that
>>27877272
I don't think SAO is that good, but Future Diary is pretty much a 5/10
>>27877272
mirai nikki is a gimmick show and rating it is basically "how much do you like the gimmick"
EVERYONE ON THIS THREAD HAS SHIT TASTE
>>27876521
no english dub, but psycho-pass is really good. i too was like you, but i evolved into watching it with just the subtitles. its better that way honestly I know it sounds weird at first but trust me
Assassination Classroom, One Punch Man, Gangsta... I'm too drunk to think of anything else mate.
>>27876658
tell me how attack on titan is not god tier!!!
Hunter x hunter. I started it a few days ago and just finished episode 100 on Netflix. It's good feels show.
Also go watch yu yu hakusho because it's literally the best anime ever made. Everyone else who disagrees voted for bob dole
>>27877463
Wait, no, forgot about Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.
>>27876521
You're a complete fucking pleb, so watch these in this order:
>cowboy bebop
>akira
>eva
>EoE
>lain
>texhnolyze
And then kill yourself.
I'd STONGLY recommend Hunter X Hunter. I fucking loved it.
Also Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood (2009) is probably my favorite anime of all time, the story is amazing, all the characters have depth, I can't even explain.
>>27876521
You should just learn to like Japanese dubs, otherwise your anime career is not going to go very far.
>>27877562
>>lain
>>texhnolyze
I'd want to kill myself too after watching this schlock
>>27877576
Eat shit nerd, texh is peak anime.
Sword Art Online had a great 1st episode and then it went to hell. How this idiot gives it a 90% I have no idea...
Maybe a 3/10 at best. Ruined by awful waifushit episodes
>>27877632
>waifushit episodes
There is no such thing.
>Sword Art Online I & II (9/10)
>>27876521
Holy fuck mate fucking kill yourself, that's awful
>Evangelion
>Fate/Zero
>Fate/Stay Night - Unlimited Blade Works
>Akira
>Darker than Black
>Jojo's Bizzare adventure
>Berserk
Also, if you ever get into VNs, read Umineko.
Since you liked AoT a lot you could try Koutetsujou no Kabaneri
It's currently airing so only one episode is out (second was delayed today because of the earthquake). Oh and only subs are out, so you'd have to deal without a dub.
It's made by the same people and is similar in a lot of ways
>>27876521
Oh my god what the hell is your rating system? I get Future Diary wasn't fantastic, but I'd honestly like you to explain how you'd give it a 5/10 and give fucking Death Note, hands down the worst piece of television I've ever seen, a 10/10,
>>27877701
This
Don't get me wrong Future Diary is fucking awful, but who the fuck would give SAO a higher rating than Future Diary?
>>27877701
>>27877710
Mirai Nikki deserves a 0/10
Literally everything about it was absolutely awful. I'd genuinely rather kill myself than finish watching it.
>>27877719
yuno is cute
>>27877739
Her character design is ugly, especially her hair
Also yanderes are by far the shittest character type, which is saying something considering we live in a world dominated by tsunderes
>>27877739
She was the only good thing about the show, but they fucked up her character pretty early into the show as well
Could have been interesting but everything was just so fucking boring
>>27877739
It's all about Minene, motherfucker
>>27877771
W-what did you say?
Y-yukkiiiii~
>>27877719
I disagree. I think Mirai Nikki is a good show that completely undermines itself because it feels it has too. it has a great concept, and a (mostly) fantastic line up of characters, and honestly, if the writers weren't restrained by the fact they're writing an anime, it would have been great. But because they feel they have too, they have: a cast of characters that are way too young, a main character they focus on way too much to the point where it doesn't make sense to the story, and worst of all, Yuno. While Yuno isn't as annoying as Misa from death note, she's still awful, and they still focus on he ay too much. So I didn't think the show was unbearable, and it definitely deserves more then a 0/10, but yeah, it's still bad show.
>>27877785
To add on to this point: >>27877853
If I had to say the writers had one fault when they weren't undermining themselves, it'd be how little they knew about what to do with their characters. they introduce Minene as literally, literally, a school shooter, killing hundreds of middle schoolers, and by the end of it, she's suppose to be sympathetic. Kind of shitty writing.
>>27877892
the whole show was full of over the top stuff like thatyukiteru's dad fucking kills his mother, and then just laughs it off
>>27877853
>it has a great concept,
It's just edgy teenage dream #999, nothing about it is great.
Who here desert punk, one piece, and black lagoon?
>>27877971
See, there's a big problem with the show: Take out the fact two characters are teens, and that statement isn't true anymore. Without them being muddle schoolers, it's a show about a variety of varied people being encouraged to kill each other, each with an interesting an unique weapon. But because the writers forced anime tropes into their own show, people just write it off as an "edgy teen dream"
>>27877955
But there's a difference between making a character you want to be seen as an asshole do an over-the-top asshole thing and introducing a character as a complete genocidal monster, then turning her around and completely shifting gears with how you want the audience to see her
>>27878016
Literally everything about the plot, characters, writing and even marketing was edgy. It's just the same old "poor little wimpy MC is forced to fight" with extra helpings of edge. Take that away and you have something different entirely, so you can't defend it using that.
>>27878047
still better than soa or aot
NGE
Gunbuster
FMA
Escaflowne
Area 88
Laputa
Ping Pong
Ghost in the Shell
>>27878067
I never watched SAO but AoT wasn't really that bad. It was generic and pretty ugly, but nothing offensively bad.
>>27878047
But see I think you need to explain your argument more. What about the plot, characters and writing is "edgy" to you? is it just because they're killing each other? Is every show about a fight to the death "edgy"? If so, that becomes a null argument.
>>27878067
>Pretending aot is bad
Like I get we all try to be anti-normie here, but that's just kind of ridiculous
>>27878099
A story set in a medieval future Europe where people fight man-eating giants using grappling hooks that practically make them fly is now generic?
>>27878122
it's not terrible, it's just unremarkable
No mention of Elfen Lied in the slightest
Also Fate/stay night is pretty damn good desu
I finished Ajin on Netflix the other day as well and it was pretty enjoyable despite some flaws. (8.5/10, watched it all in one sitting)
>>27878131
Well generic as in " unusually determined MC is unfairly persecuted but also the only one who can save the day", not the setting
>>27878134
I mean, it's a fantastic introduction to the anime genre for normies, and ignoring that, it's a show which is a prime example on how to do world building correctly to get your audience invested, and a prime example on how correctly to set a tone through emotion. But if that's unremarkable to you, I completely understand.
>>27878149
>Only one who can save the day
Did you watch the show? Do you even know what it's about?
>>27878140
>Netflix
Fuck off.
>>27878183
Yeah, fuck a cheap, legal streaming service with a great array of shows and movies to choose from!
>>27878201
>streaming anime
>supporting the dumb "release everything 3 months after it airs" meme
>>27878201
>giving jews money
>not torrenting your animu
It's almost like you are a faggot.
>>27878201
Why do you have to pay?
These people are not deserving of my money.
>>27878201
>a great array of shows and movies
>>27876521
>Rated SAO higher than tokyo ghoul and future diary
Jesus just kill yourself, your have shit taste even for a normie. You having to watch eng dubs is even worse.
>>27878221
>>27878228
>Not realizing you were referring to anime on Netflix, not everything
Yeah, I just use KissAnime, so I don't know about the anime Netflix scene
>>27878234
All they want is to give you good television and movies, but whatever you say
>>27878235
Yes
>>27878319
Good television barely exists.
Good movies are usually not on netflix.
Are normies really incapable of pirating tv shows and films?
>>27876521
>Sword Art Online I & II (9/10)
You should:
A: kill yourself.
OR
B: read a book to understand what good Storytelling/writing and interesting characters are.
OR
C: Watch an anime that is not a 15 year old power fantasy. E.g. EVA or Lain.
>>27878319
>so I don't know about the anime Netflix scene
Basically the problem is that shows Netflix gets don't get subbed as quickly, so we end up waiting weeks instead of getting them weekly like with every other service. It's silly considering Netflix Japan still releases weekly
>>27878334
Clearly your problem is you're a contrarian, as the basis of your argument is simply false. Critics and audiences agree that yes, good television exists, and there are many good films on netflix
>>27878340
Lain is boring as shit if you're not on drugs.
>>27878353
>there are many good films on netflix
name 3 that I can't pirate
>>27878353
>good television exists
Not him. But you are wrong. There exist a few shows that are worth watching.
But the rest is completely midless crap.
A combination of terrible stories and even worse writing.
>>27877589
>not haibane
>>27878360
Never said you couldn't pirate them, I said they existed. In my original point I noted that netflix was a legal streaming service
>>27878375
That is, at the face of it, a contrarian argument, that I can't actually argue with, because media is completely subjective. You might not think that there is a plethora of good television to choose from, past or present, but like I said, critics and audiences disagree with you.
>>27878375
What movies do you consider to have outstanding writing?
>>27878319
>I just use KissAnime
Kill yourself.
>>27878438
Never understood the hate for KissAnime. It's just a site that has any anime I want to watch, sub or dub, why does /a/ and apparently r9k treat it like cancer?
>>27878518
i disliked it for a while, then i realized how expansive it is. I think its pretty good now desu, i stream shit will dling heaps of animaymay
>>27878518
lurk more newfagoriginal
>>27878518
Streams just look like shit and downloading anime is incredibly easy
>>27878561
the video takes forever to load, then starts fucking playing automatically before you can scroll down to it and open fullscreen
meaning you miss the first 5-10 seconds
>>27876521
Why is future diary only 5/10 you piece of shit?
>>27876560
>being this much of a carfag
go kill yourself
>>27878655
Not him, but for the manga, the ending was a giant deus ex machina.
>>27878655
Most likely because it's terrible
Get better taste
>>27877562
Pretty good taste
Would add Madoka Magica because I like to watch the world burn
>>27878682
>most generic "I've only seen wildly popular shit" taste ever
>good
Fellow anime noob here. I like akira for movies and Evangeline for series
>>27876521

>>27878750
Oh, and Welcome to the N.H.K.
>>27878750
monster is not entry level
>>27878682
I was considering that but I only wanted to include things that I was 100% certain were classics. I also excluded Shinsekai Yori for that reason. I also didn't include pretentious 3deep5u shit like Angel's Eggeven though I really like it.
>>27878719
>Hiatus x Hiatus
Don't even start it senpai, the author practically doesn't give a shit about the series anymore. Pic related.
Same goes with Berserk, there are two releases per year now.
Good Anime doesn't exist. Mediocre Anime is far below a mediocre anything else in terms of objective quality.
t. superior media connoisseur and aesthete
>>27878764
Yeah true, was just thinking of some. I wouldn't say it's an "aquired" taste, but it's definitely more serious, but really good
>no one posted this yet
Well here it is then.
>>27878772
yeah but does mediocre anything else have cute girls
checkmate 3Dists
>>27878769
>ywn be a famous mangaka able to slack off for years at a time and still keep your job
>>27878678
It's really not, it's just a good show that holds itself back. I expanded upon this earlier:
>>27877853
>>27877892
>>27876521
>i can only stand to watch english dub and it has to be really good. Any suggestions?
>I have seen the following (and liked)
>- Sword Art Online I & II (9/10)
>- Attack on Titan (10/10)
kill yourself
>>27876521
Try Kill la Kill. The English dub is pretty good, and it's a great show if you're okay with a show that's going at 100% at all times
>>27876521
Gundam is pretty cool OP
>>27878358
It's boring like books are "boring".
Meaning you are not spoon fed everything.
>>27878358
what a surprise, tripnigger has shit opinions
lain is /comfy/
