I always imagine OTA being like the soldiers.

I do not suggest because:

1. I highly disliked the former and did not care for the latter.

2. They are mentioned and suggested everywhere.

While I suggest some that fit #2, I think there are some "must watch" shows but I do not believe either CG or SAO fit.

 

[Khiel]

Quite liked code geass but christ almighty it was hamfisted with all the themes, the writers really had low expectations for the viewers and it shows.

SAO is bloody trite, IMO. Watched the first two seasons and then around half of the gun-gale thing.

up your general understanding of anime cuz that's some basic shit right there, it aint 2008 anymore

if I stayed signed in to my MAL I'd give you my log I started for general shits & giggles but it's like 2 anime now

just hop onto whatever your favorite site is for watching it and take a shot in the dark on something featured/on a sidebar

 

[Juicy]

First ever anime I watched was 'Seven Deadly Sins' I am never going to watch anime ever again...

 

[Macho]

ever really got into boku no academia simply because im used to more darker themes

like gurren lagann, death note, and code geass

all of them have similar themes to boku no academia but boku feels way too.. "happy" and "light" for my tastes compared to the philosophical and psychological twists and turns in the above mentioned series

You dont really get it do you, boku no hero academia has really dark themes if you really explore them. There are plenty of youtube channels which dive deep into chapters and episodes for example Chibi Reviews. Really entertaining guy.

You don't start with trash anime dud... Especially NOT if it's on Netflix. Most of the anime there is trash. The only ones from there that I'd recommend are like Little Witch Academia, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood and Devilman Crybaby.

If you like some psychological twisted shit you should watch Monster. It's really good.

nibba fuck that

if you want anime go all-out and watch whatever the heck you want

the best way to gauge your enjoyment of the medium is by trying everything, give k-on a shot, give hunter x hunter a shot, give early gundam a shot

there's tons to choose from, and animation style, age, etc.

 

[mårten]

give k-on a shot

yes please watch k-on it's the goat

 

[Red Dress]

yes please watch k-on it's the goat

And if you like CGDCT/Slice of Life, Is the Order a Rabbit? is a great show.

[Mic15000]

Hey, I was thinking of getting a VRV subscription, anyone have it and know if its worth it?

 

[Señor Jaggles]

Depending on the price. Crunchyroll of Funimation both are good, load times for CR are better than VRV or Funimation, but for instance, if you're a fan of RWBY, it comes out on VRV before Crunchyroll. Of all of them, the one with the biggest catalogue of anime is CR, but VRV and Funimation are not far behind.

If it's not expensive, yeah, why not.
