    Would Friren count? Romance of the two teens are age appropriate for them. And two dudes that are enamoured with older women, but I think that’s it.

    Yesterday I would have recommended Blue Eye Samurai because the first several episodes were lightning in a bottle. Unfortunately I watched the finale last night and it was such incredible trash that it ruined the entire show.

    I’m legally obliged to mention Haikyuu here, incredibly wholesome and the closest thing to sexualisation is a single midly questionable camera angle in one of the first episodes.

    There’s a lot of terrible anime, but there’s also a lot of fantastic anime. There’s a lot of anime.

    Haven’t seen any Ranking of Kings, I thought it was cool, in a twisted fairytale with weird bullshit kind of way.

    Harsh world, some very tortured characters doing terrible things, and the most harmless kind-hearted protagonist you could imagine just winning over and redeeming everyone.

    Don’t watch the spin-off series though, it’s uninspired filler episode shit.

    Can’t remember the name. Hero wakes up to find himself in a strange city where the skyscrapers are connected by rope bridges and guarded by strange, masked killers. First couple of episodes get me hooked. Then they bring in a teenage girl and suddenly there are just so many panty shots…

    “High-Rise Invasion

    edit = thanks to user jaschen for doing the research.

      Ehhh, anime fans aren’t responsible for the production of dubious content. I think it’s safe to put blame on the creators too.

        You know what honestly I couldn’t give a less fuck what some people create. But you choose to consume it. This is the real blame.

    The Fable. It’s set in the real world and it’s about a Yakuza assassin and his handler being made to live a normal life for a year to lie low. The whole thing is on Hulu.

      “Anything that was on TV in Europe back when the American cartoon market was dominated by Hanna-Barbera and Filmation, and their uninspired crap.”

      As a kid I did enjoy Dunderklumpen! but I don’t think it holds up pretty well
