Highschool DxD

I usually like a bit of ecchi in my situational comedy as it usually leads to some amusing awkward situations, but Highschool DxD was definitely a bit stronger than I prefer. Usually once it crosses the line into nudity, it just gets a bit awkward for me. Highschool of the Dead was close to that line, but I don't think it had any nudity (in the normal episodes), but it had a ton of fanservice though! Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls (and its sequel) also have quite a bit of nudity in them, but you can watch the normal broadcast episodes, which don't show it.

I think nudity in anime is great, just like movies. HOWEVER I despise forced nudity.

Like that Master of Martial Hearts. Punching someone in an upper-cut in the jaw, and her shirt rips open exposing her breasts. Its like... c'mon that does not feel like it should happen (aka forced).

Now if a boy was say being chased and hid in a girls locker room/hot springs/whatever, and he runs into a female naked and it is shown, which causes an embarrassing situation. That works.

It all depends on how it is presented in my opinion.

Highschool of the dead did have 1? episode with actual nudity. But other than that no, it was pretty tame in that regard. AHA! I did forget about the samurai girls one. yes that is ecchi as well.


Speaking of Anime, I don't know if anyone here has watched "Tower of Druaga", but if you have. Am I the only one lost on the opening sequence/song animation vs the actual show?

Hmm thinking about it, I think it's not necessarily nudity, but rather full-fledged nudity. That may not make sense to some, but typically, anime doesn't show things like nipples. So, even if you see a bare breast, it's just a bare, round thing. Typically, nipples are seen in hentai, which is why it might seem so awkward to me. It makes me feel like a hentai if I see hentai.

Oh, well, once you start throwing in embarrassing/awkward situations, I'm already game! I think it's pretty much an ani-law that if an anime has comedic and ecchi aspects, the main male character will run into a female character that's either naked or only wearing a towel, and he will probably fall on top of her. This may even happen more than once if it's a harem anime. Oh, and it's bonus points if it happens during an onsen trope! Extra bonus points if the guy only had a towel on and the anime makes sure to point out that the towel is most certainly not on the guy post-collision.

Fuck! Probably the worst fuked up scene in Anime history. I don't understand. Even the last episode you see panties lol why? I don't understand. Such a great Anime and shit like that just fucks you off.

 

[Phantomaniac]

I feel that recommending a good anime to someone who prefers dumb shonnens is kind of a waste...

I was about to recommend Mushishi, Natsume Yuujinchou, Kaiba, but seems like that kind of Shinto-istic anime would be lost in this thread.

If I remember correctly it was a flash back in Seras Victorias mind about the murder of her mother. Not 100% sure but the Hellsing Ultimate was really well done the art work is just great.

 

[evident]

no one has ever watched Planetes? I just finished the series. It was the first series of anime i've ever watched and thought it was fabulous. It deals with alot of adult themes that i thought was really mature for an anime. I loved the way it ended too

 

[dighn]

Really funny question.. Pokemon and Digimon Anime?

pokemon?! pokemon?! with the poke and the mon and thing wheres the guy comes outta the thing and the he raaks falalrgha arggh arggh

anidb.net. select the genres you think you might like and sort by ratings. usually pretty good.

some less common shows that i really enjoyed were scrapped princess and zegapain. something about post-apocalyptic sci-fi-in-disguise appeals to me. but it's not entirely subjective - they do have good ratings.

Dragon Ball Z Abridged

[someone16]

Astro Fighter Sunred. Hilarious and you get so learn some quick and easy cooking recipes.

Tiger & Bunny is also a great one to watch

 

[Aikouka]

Anyone else seen that newer show, Servant x Service? I had to check it out when I saw it as a recommended series on Working!!'s page as that anime was pretty awesome. I watched the first five episodes, and I can safely say that if you like quirky characters, awkward situations, and a slight bit of ecchi (it's really just aimed more at adults and not really perverted), then it might just be up your alley!

 

[Cappuccino]

A little update. If you guys like zombies I defo recommend this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highschool_of_the_Dead

 

[blankslate]

Anyone mention Akira yet?

Yeah, they condensed volumes of manga into about two hours so you'll probably be scratching your head at times but the animation is top notch as it the setting.

 

[Sonikku]

I watched that recently. I really struggled with the main character sounding like Leonardo the entire movie.

 

[Cappuccino]

OMG! Did anyone watched the season finale for Attack on Titan!? OMG! !!

 

[Kaido]

I like anime, but I'm not into the nudity or gore thing. Can anyone recommend some fairly clean anime movies & TV shows?

I used to like Dragonball Z (actually when he was a kid in Dragonball has fun stories) but they really stretch out the episodes with endless grunting and no decision-making or action stuff, so it gets pretty boring after awhile. Howl's Moving Castle is pretty good. Porco Rosso is fun if you like airplanes. Trigun is great, especially if you're a Firefly fan and like the sci-fi/western mashup stuff.

 

[Fayd]

Generally good
Bakemonogatari (ecchi, awesome dialogue)
Nisemonogatari
Nekomonogatari
Monogatari Second Season (wtf naming?)

FMA Brotherhood
Spice and Wolf (awesome dialogue)
Code Geass

Zero no Tsukaima (ecchi, romance included)

Fate Zero (whole fate franchise is good, except the fate stay night anime. I recommend the game. much better experience, much better story)

Gosick (awesome. *tiny* bit of romance, great dialogue, awesome story)

Comedy
Baka to Test to Shokanju
FLCL
Hayate no Gotoku
Kaichou Wa Maid-Sama (pretty good for an anime aimed at girls)
Seto no Hanayome

Romance
Boku ha Tomodachi Ga Sunukai (ecchi)
Toradora

for the more discerning viewer (haha)
Serial Experiments Lain (mindfuck... not my thing, but others like it)
Puella Magi Madoka Magica (couldn't get into it. but fantastic animation. mami's spell at the start..with the arrayed flintlocks. pure awesomeness.)
Gankutsuou (very high quality adaptation of the Count of Monte Cristo. Expands a few characters roles, makes Benedetto even more evil. sets the whole affair few thousand years into future. But overall keeps the spirit of the storyline, doesn't fuck it up completely like that shitty ass movie. has absolutely incredible animation)

 

[Kaido]

Oh yeah, and Initial D if you like guys talking endlessly about how to take a corner in a drift car :awe:

I like that show.


Gatchaman Crowds is an interesting take on Gatchaman.

Uchouten Kazoku is fun for me, but you do need a bit of cultural background to get some of the references.

MM! If you want to watch a bit of ecchi comedy.


a website called anime seasons has tons of shows collated.

To-Love Ru is in a similar vein, except there is harem component.

Sword Art Online is a pretty popular show about MMORPG

This one is stranger in strange land type setup.
Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo?

Oddballs of a school stay in a off campus residence and their stories.
Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo

This one is about careful what you wish for cuz you might get itHentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko.

Post apocalypse meets off world mecha
Suisei no Gargantia

This is a great show. About supernatural powers and end of world.
Zetsuen no Tempest: The Civilization Blaster


Yahari Ore No Seishun Love Come Wa Machigatteiru


Toaru Kagaku no Railgun and Toaru Majutsu no Index

Interesting setup of 2 series with same set of characters but different perspectives.


Interesting take on zombies


Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi


Clannad series is very good.

high school club for those wth no friends

Boku Wa Tomodachi Ga Sukunai


Kemeko Deluxe! is funny, a bit of ecchi.


Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou

Zero No Tsukaima

I wouldnt really consider bakemongatari ecchi, it was okay though.

highschool dxd is ecchi, sekirei is ecchi. queens blade is pretty ecchi, ikkitousen is fairly ecchi,

Anyone else have some ecchi reccomendations? I looove me some ecchi/fan service !
