b) Best of the best

Discuss anything praiseworthy here. Anime-related of course. Regardless of aspects. So, talk about your favorites, discuss anything that caught your attention, or recommend everyone else something you personally found amusing.

I'll kick it up with something nice myself later on. And yeah, I'd like this thread to be as active as possible, not a graveyard.

Alright, since no one has bothered to praise anything (spare for based nana) I figure I'll start it off. Now, some may be turned off by it simply because of the hype, but goddamnit I love this anime. One Punch Man. I'm typically not a fan of anime that has so much hype around, but for many reasons I love this show. Shit, it could have flaw after flaw, and it'd still be perfect to me. I don't watch airing anime for the most part, and for the first time in a very long time I actually enjoy looking forward to the latest episode dropping. It is feel good, and I can just sit back and watch shit get beat up. Now that we're 8-9 episodes in the story has definitely come to light, but at first it really was just random shit. He was just beating shit up, and it was awesome. The fight scenes are well done, they kind of remind me the over the topness TTGL fights had. The comedy bits are done well, and I find myself leaving each episode wanting more, but with a smile on my face. Opening is pretty awesome given I'm a metal fan, and is currently up in my top 10.

Perhaps I'm biased because of how I feel, but honestly I would definitely recommend this anime. Worst comes to worst you watch a few episodes, and you don't like it, or you find yourself not enjoying it. I'm not going to call this the perfect anime, or the best thing since sliced bread. However, it is well done, and worth a watch in my opinion.

I'd totally go find a cool badass picture to accompany this post from like tumblr or something, but I haven't seen the latest episode and refuse to spoil that shit for myself, so imagine a bald dude lookin' badass, or just a bald dude lookin' like w.e. Thanks.

Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon (known in English as Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere) is a strong contender for my absolute favorite anime of all time. I was gonna do a detailed writeup on it, but I think I'll save that for a full-fledged review under the public forum.

It's hard to categorize Horizon into existing genres, but if I had to describe it in one string, it'd probably be a Sci-Fi Historical Political Action Drama with a side of Romance. To its extreme benefit however, the show never really takes itself too seriously. Despite its many interesting characters, a few mature themes, and scores of well-crafted dialogue (One of the highlights of the first season is a diplomatic debate regarding a casus belli and a stinging attack on a protagonist's legitimacy.), the show is rescued and ultimately distinguishes itself by way of bright colors, lively personalities, and the sheer imagination of the author. Seriously, I wish I had this guy's creativity.

One of the other great strengths of this show is its faithfulness to the light novels that spawned it. Every character, every scene, and every line of dialogue are rendered in ways that make it seem more like an animated audiobook than a broadcast TV show. Overall, I'd recommend Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere to anyone seeking a smart series that won't leave them with clinical depression. I'm tellin' you, go check it out! 😃

Currently have my eye on two manga. Mahou Shoujo of the End & Dolly Kill Kill.
Both renowned as both main protagonists are in a DayZ meets anime situation. While not Zombies, but one are Magic Girls and another are big sinister cute dolls. Reading them makes me laugh a bit inside on how in the thought of Mahou Shoujo to the End's crude and funny remarks between the characters while Dolly Kill Kill's character's situation between them and the dolls. I just know one thing about both of these manga. Their character must be fucked up in the head to put this manga's ink on paper.
