I can't stand weebshit at all but I enjoyed this despite going in expecting to hate it. I can't tand anime bullshit like the big eyed kawaii uguu trash you see faggots posting here.

What is actually worth watching and what should I avoid like the plague?

None as even the so-called "great" ones do not so much as graze the aesthetic and philosophical heights of cinema and literature. It's a trash genre made for East Asian teenagers and white manchildren with short attention spans.

I've only seen Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle. I liked the magical feeling they had, reminded me of being younger. Are those the established pleb ones?

Only Spirited Away because it won a oscar so it's ok to hate it.

Fair enough. Which are the more western styled ones? I'm not so interested in really Japanese stuff.
>>
>>70356821
>Which are the more western styled ones?
I would say that Nausicaa, Lupin, Porco Rosso and Laputa are the ones who have a more european feeling akin to Howls.
But I would also recommend Mononoke, it has Japanese stuff, but it's Miyazaki finest movie for me.

Can't recommend this movie enough. Be sure to watch the first one too. Bloodlust is constantly overlooked and yet it's better than most of well known movies.
As for your question:
-Almost everything by studio Ghibli
-Everything by Satoshi Kon
-Madhouse studio for good animation
-90's OVAs for solid colors, animation and violence
Lastly use the internet you lazy fuck.
>>
>>70362219
Why would I use the internet when I can get free meme opinions from shut ins on here?

Actually I do value the opinions of 4chan as I find people here filter through bullshit quite well.

>>70356499
This so much. Also, Mushishi is pretty based.
>>
>>70360203
I tried watching it but stopped after 5 minutes because the subs go by at 100 miles per hour and I wasn't gonna pause it every 30 seconds to know what they're saying.

>>70362514
Depends on an episode and language, really. I had no problem with it.
>>70362726
That's from Magnetic Rose. Second season has better secondary characters and world building. Also, animation got better. Would recommend.
>>
>>70360203
The best.
>>70362514
Seemed scary for the first 5 minutes but you get used to it. And it fits the rest very well.
>>
>>70352251
Where do you watch them tho? Been wanting to watch Tokyo Godfathers, but can't really find a decent torrent for it.

The pacing of Castle of Cagliostro doesn't feel animu-tier at all and it is great adventure movie.

Berserk

Anything that isn't from Studio Disn- I mean, Ghibli.

I'm the same as you m8 most of it is fucking trash but I like your pic related, spirited away and laputa (castle in the sky)

Pretty much a handful of studio ghibli films. everything else is shit. Trust me.
>>
>>70354014
A childhood classic for me on VHS (like 5 years old) but I watched it the other week and its actually pretty fucking retarded and shit. It's just ridiculous and not in a good way.
>>
>>70356821
Laputa (castle in the sky) is the only other one with a nice 'magical'/adventure feel.

A couple others are a bit comfy and the rest are shit.

2.88mb of trash
>>
>>70363931
Yeah most of it is annoying, don't be fooled by most of the 'serious' looking ones, they either start off retarded or turn retarded half way through. It's just cheesy/cringey. at least with studio ghibli you know what you're going to get, they're like a comfy simulator.
>>
>>70364265
I think my main issue is that whenever they try to do anything "adult" like sex and violence it comes across like an edgy kids show. No matter how edgy it is, it's still a cartoon, and the Ghibli stuff works with that as it's quite light hearted.

I like cyberpunk stuff and people often mention Ghost in the Shell but I'm 99% sure I'd just find that to be the same sort of cringeworthy shit you see in other animus.
>>
>>70353215
Stop posting this everywhere, you fucking waste. Alice is the literally the only decent film there and it isn't even the director's best.
>>
They make movies that aren't cartoons, y'know? Grow up and watch those.
>>
>>70364374
>I think my main issue is that whenever they try to do anything "adult" like sex and violence it comes across like an edgy kids show

This is what I was trying to say really, it comes across as silly when they're clearly trying to be gritty and serious, I don't understand how people can watch tons of this stuff.

Ghost in the shell was honestly the only non cheesy one of the handful I tried but it ends suddenly at it feels like nothing really happens, I wanted to like it but I couldn't. Weebs would call me a pleb for saying that but then again who cares what they think, look at the trash they watch in general lel.
