animu thread

[Jeff]

i've been going full otaku this past week and have "binge-watched" a bunch of anime shows, some of them are literally pretty good. i enjoyed one punch man the most because it was only 2 seasons and it was not very serious. what are your favourite animes and why

[SenisterDenister]

I'm hoping the animation of OPM's season 3 will be better. The writing still does a good job of sticking with the source material, though, but it's following the official manga instead of the original webcomic. If you liked OPM you should watch Mob Psycho 100, it's written by the same author and is only three seasons long from beginning to end, it's also really well done animation wise.

I'll give it a go, thanks!
