Title: Need a new anime series!
Post by: equanimity on September 30, 2014, 11:27:58 pm
Just finished Stein's Gate.  Sooo good!  I cried a few times :P

What's next?  Not looking too much for action, but something dramatic and weird maybe?

How about monogatari series, if you like a lot of talks and dialogues that is not boring?

In short, monogatari series is a story about this guy that resolves supernatural cases around him.

Well, since it's my favorite series I might be a little bias but I found the charm of it when the character engaging with each other.
Give it a try, start with bakemonogatari for 2 episodes.

I'm only finding the second season?  But tons of them.  So strange.

Search for bakemonogatari gg in nyaa, and sort it by seeder. I use gg subs but you can try other subs.

I really liked bakemonogatari and I feel like describing it with "supernatural detective" is such a disservice to the series, but I can't think of anything better. It gets worse when you try to describe it in terms of character relations and you realize it's like some weird yandere harem situation with a grand total of two male characters. Like the best I can come up with is to highlight the themes of wordplay (which comes across impressively well in translations) and ironic repetition/inversion, but that seems really non-descript. I don't know maaaaannn, I just don't know.

Well maybe not so dramatic but if you're looking for wierd, a good show is Kämpfer. Basicly, this guy wakes up one morning and he finds out he's transformed into a GIRL! 0_o. Good if you like the gender-bender sort of genre and it sounds kinda stupid when I wrote it but I suck at summaries anyway so just look it up on kissanime (best anime website ever btw).
WARNING!
This show contains some nudity but mainly just boobs, so nothing to bad. Wouldn't classify it as hentai as it doesn't revolve around people trying to bang each other. Well it does, but that's really just comic relief stuff so not too serious.

It's really not recommended watching from streaming site due to the video lower quality. On topic of kampfer, I watched it and I cannot make myself to continue it pass episode 2. This season however, there's a similar series called Ore, Twin tails ni Narimasu. I expect a low quality fan-sevice anime and do not plan on watching it but /a/ finally convinced me to watched it and this show, and you know what, it really is that good in a twisted sense. I mean god damnit this show. Whether you like or dislike gender bender, or fan-service or harem I really think you will enjoy this, I mean this show is self aware of it's genre that it has it's own charm. But who knows, I still have good expectations on episode 2.

Well I don't know what website you were on but kissanime works really well for me when I watch on my iPad and hit the 'High Quality' button. Also, even though you coudn't make it past the second episode, trust me, it gets better.
