Raziel Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) As probably anyone who visited my profile or talked to me for 10 minutes has already suspected, I'm a pretty big fan of most of the things listed above. I think I really got into it from 2013 onwards. I don't know what my first anime was that I recognised a such (probably Naruto or One Piece), but I remember distinctly how a friend introduced me to The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. I dropped it after three episodes because I found it very boring. When I picked it up again later (after watching more "newbie-friendly" titles like Death Note and Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood), it quickly grew to become my favourite anime. I started reading manga because Naruto Shippuuden was plagued with filler episodes and I got impatient for story continuation. Since reading is usually faster than watching for me, I started to read more manga as more anime series had no continuation. The only light novel series I've read to this day is the Suzumiya Haruhi series. Yes, I am a huge Haruhi fan. Manhwa and manhua, the Korean and Chinese counterparts to Japanese manga, were the latest related media I got to know. I think Solo Leveling was my first manhwa and Tales of Demons and Gods my first manhua. Nowadays, I still try to expand my horizons in terms of genres and keep my watching and reading experience as diverse as possible. I tend to avoid most seasonals and instead watch whatever show strikes my fancy. What I love the most about anime and manga is how diverse and vast the stories can be. You can probably find any kind of story here, be it about time-travel; superheroes; giant robots; high school volleyball; man-eating giants; rapping samurai; someone getting reincarnated in another world (again); pirates who can't swim; or tank-driving high school girls. So, in a nutshell: My favourite anime: Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu My favourite anime movie. Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu My favourite manga: A bunch, but Komi-san wa, Comyushou desu is the only series of which I have physical copies My favourite manhwa: Peerless Dad What I'm currently watching: Boku no Hero Academia s5; Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san; and, most notably, the last installment of the Monogatari series, Zoku Owarimonogatari. For a more detailed view of what I've watched and read, what I plan to watch and read, and how I think about it: https://myanimelist.net/profile/RD1042 So feel free to share your favourite titles here, discuss what you've recently watched or read, and give recommendations if asked for. Or maybe you don't like this stuff at all, stopped consuming it for a reason, or are curious about it but don't know where to start? I'm looking forward to seeing all kinds of positions towards this hobby of mine. Just keep it civilised Edited April 20, 2021 by Raziel 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) I am manga/anime lover as well. My fav anime: Inuyasha ❤️, Death Note, nearly all Miyazaki/Ghibli workshop (Totoro, Sprited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, Panda Kopanda and ect), allRurouni Kenshin series (Samurai X), classical Ghost in the Shell/Akira, and all qute not amime stuffs like Pui Pui Molcar (yes I am that insane! 🤣).. Can watch Cowboy Bebop, romantic things like: OreGairu, Melancholy, sometimes some pantsu related funny weird shits or something meanless... XDD I dont know difference between manwha and manga So I guess I love everything what related to anime, (as I mention above). I read only Inuyasha manga - but its really big! Manga is the way to know much more then showed and told in anime series... As you see I am amature anime lover indeed. Edited April 19, 2021 by Nancy Pui pui is not anime at all XDDD 1 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look like this, read from left to right and top to bottom: You've watched a bunch of old ones I haven't watched. Inuyasha and Kenshin are titles I obvioulsy know about, but haven't watched at all. I plan to watch Ghost in the Shell, and can agree on how influential Akira is (though I still have to read the manga). Still trying to get around to watch all the Ghibli movies, but they require a certain mood for me. Kaze no Tani no Nauscaä (Miyazaki wrote and drew it iirc) is definitely one of the best mangas I've read (a friend of mine was so kind to let me borrow his collector's edition of it): 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cross Marian Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I've seen and read many different anime and manga, but here is an extract of some of the best. Also, for anime, like for every other movies or shows, it's always better to watch them in VO with subtitles Manhwa > Noblesse > The Breaker > Solo Leveling Manga (mostly Shonen) > One Piece > Death Note > Fullmetal Alchemist > Attack On Titan > Bleach > D.Gray-man > One Punch-Man > Beelzebub > Gintama > Prison School > GTO I don't watch many anime movies, but I've seen all of Miyazaki's work of course 😇 And my favorite one is Spirited Away ❤️ 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
