We all have our fair share of precious moments during our time as weebs.
Mine was watching the final episode of Gurren Lagann when I was 10. Back then kid me was really hyped at the sheer scope of the final battle. I watched it in dub but the impact of it solidified my fanaticism in anime.

I'm gonna move this to Fridays from now on, it's easier for me to remember to post.

Recently I've started getting really into manga/anime that focuses pretty heavily on brawling.
I binged Kengan Asura, which primarily focuses on a fighter named Ohma and his coach as they fight in an underground fighting ring.
Baki was very similar, but probably a bit more silly, and a bit more focused on the conflict with his father.
Part of my problem is I don't really know what to look for after this. Does anyone have any suggestions for either manga or anime that is focused on fighters / fighting like Kengan or Baki?
Picking these threads up from @Cleb after talking to her about it :)

I'd say something here about thinking a monthly thread for this is better or something, but that would be a lie and the truth is that I was busy during Christmas and subsequently forgot to post this thread for about three weeks running. Sorry about that.

I mostly like action and comedy anime, but I've been trying to branch my tastes out and get into some more genres. What do you like outside of comedy and action (especially SOL, but I'm really looking for any good suggestions)?

I want to make a list of anime that everyone should see, whether completely new to the medium or a veteran. Personally, i'd say FLCL. It's a rollercoaster.

Last week I didn't realize I hadn't made the weekly post until it was a couple days too late, so I decided to just rollover to this week. Sorry, folks. Might have to get someone else to post sometimes.

Guess this is the proper way to do the post without getting lost posters then.

New title to hopefully avoid people getting lost and posting the wrong media here, if you have a suggestion to make it less ugly then please say something.

I've started following JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Vento Aureo, which is airing as of yesterday. I'm wondering if there's any interest in weekly episode discussion threads such as the ones in ~tv
Doesn't have to be JJBA either, could be another series which is currently airing.
I am certainly in love with the show. It somehow manages to invoke in me a feeling of admiration for a cartoon (which I haven't felt for a long time). Do you like or dislike the show? Why?
My reminder didn't go off and I didn't realize until today, berate me for being late.

Alright, so I'd like to get some opinions going here and see what others think.
Full disclosure, I have not finished the Death Note series... I have tried and failed on 3 separate occasions because I can't stand the writing. I love the premise, but L's character is just too frustrating for me. He knows way more than he should at any given point with no explanation except he's a genius (at least, up until the point that I stopped watching. Episode 7 I think). It feels lazy to me. And everybody I talk to in person has felt the same.
BUT! I know that there are a lot of avid Death Note fans out there and there seem to be a few here on tildes, so I'd like you guys to weigh in. As a fan of the show, did you also feel this way about the writing? If so, what other redeeming qualities were there for you in this show? What about it do you love? What about it do you not like so much? It's a long series, should I push through until a certain episode? Have I just not gotten there yet?
Remembering to post this on time edition.

There's a lot of anime and, from what I've experienced, people who are fans watch a lot of it. It's a daunting task to keep track of what you've seen, what you've thought of it, what to anticipate coming up, and discovering more that you might like.
What site, app, home-grown system are you using to organize your anime life?
Pardon me if I don't know what I'm talking about, but I've never really been into anime, or the culture surrounding it. Personally I'm not into those cutesy anime stories, and I'd rather watch an american cartoon or some form of live-action show. Still, I've heard good things about One Punch Man, and it seems interesting. From those who've seen it, would you recommend it, and what other shows would you put it in the same categories with?
note: title subject to change
A few days ago I asked this question and got a few replies, so I figure this idea is worth trying out. If there's enough interest I'll probably move the day that this gets posted to something more regular for the week like Friday/Saturday/Sunday, but I figured I could make this one and gauge interest for the week.

Short episodes can be great because they pack a lot of content into a short amount of time. Good for when you're in a hurry or have a short attention span.
The ones that come to mind for me are:
This idea came to me last night when I was reading the post over on ~movies asking a similar question. I'm an avid user of ~music and I like to participate in the weekly "what have you been listening to" threads along with the Listening Club when possible, and I was wondering if something similar could be applied to another media group, and since I love anime and manga, my first thought was this one.
Basically my questions here are:
Would a weekly "what have you been reading/watching" thread be something you would participate in?
Secondly:
Would you prefer it be something more casual-based, or would you prefer it to be people writing reviews for things they've been viewing?
I think that one of the ways to spur more interest in media groups is weekly/monthly/whatever interval discussion threads and I'd also just personally like to see what other people here are thinking of the things they're currently watching or reading.
A basic question to help get the ~ started.
Figured since we had a favorite anime thread, we could have one for manga as well. Talk about your favorite one or two or however many you want!
I suggest using AniChart to see what's airing with solid sorting and filtering options, if you aren't already into seasonal anime or just want to see what's going on!
With the obvious most anticipated series of the season airing its first episode just recently, Summer 2018 is in full swing even by conservative estimates. What have you seen and what have you picked up or dropped so far? If you're waiting to hop on board, what looks interesting to you this season? Let's hear some thoughts :)
I love listening to Boku No Hero Academia's soundtrack when I am trying to get work done. The Villain's Theme is particularly exciting, despite the menacing vibe.
Any of you guys ever watch it? It had its 20th anniversary two months ago and I was surprised to find out how many people hadn't heard of it, even in my group of weebish friends. It's definitely strange, but it's also really exciting to try and figure things out or anticipate what happens next when you're watching. It has a weird mix of mystery and philosophy that's paced slowly but keeps you invested. It's pretty hard to explain in a meaningful way.
Maybe some of you haven't been exposed to it yet, or haven't given it a shot. If you have the time, check it out--even if you're not a huge anime fan. Given how diverse the front page of Tildes is, you may be just that until you get hooked on Lain.
Following up on the Favorite Anime topic I thought I'd see what soundtracks people really like from anime series or movies. No AMVs please.
