Anime newbie looking for suggestions
I watched "Frieren: Beyond Journey's End" a few weeks ago which is probably my first proper anime (not counting the odd episode of Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon or OnePiece I caught on TV as a child) and I really enjoyed it.
Especially the slow but deep character build up and general world building and exploration themes were really captivating. So I'm looking for something similar with focus on these aspects.
So far I found "Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina", which was ok but didn't quite live up to Frieren and wasn't nearly as captivating.
So does anyone know similar shows or at least shows that focus on the aspects of story telling I mentioned avove?
You're viewing a single thread.
Spice and Wolf is an anime about a traveling merchant, i couldn't recommend it enough. Although there is a new anime of it coming out soon if you want to wait
Made in Abyss is a horror anime about kids exploring what has affectionately been called "Uncle Lovecraft's fun time murder hole"
Girls Last Tour is an anime about two girls exploring the apocalypse. The music is literally addicting, i typed the name and it's stuck in my head. You will cry.
Those all hit an exploration Itch, i recommend going to myanimelist.net to help keep track of what you might want to watch.
Look, I love Made in Abyss more than basically anyone on Earth. But I struggle to think it's a good recommendation for a gateway anime. The other two you rec'd are absolutely perfect, though, so I can't argue entirely. But I'm going to go ahead and suggest AniList for list tracking.
I mean, i could have recommended boku no pico
Okay, and...your point is? There can be more than one bad recommendation.
Everyone needs these kinds of recommendations when starting out, my guy, hazing is great. Especially when the recommendation is actually good (meaning mia, not the other one).
I don't disagree it's a good show. I just don't know that I think OP would much like anime anymore if that's one of their first.
They could have recommend school days. Its fucked up but damn did dude get what he deseved. I dont think that one is an anime deal breaker like made in the abyss is.
