It's been a while since I've found an anime that I like.

It can be a needle in a haystack sort of thing for adults who got introduced to the anime with stuff like Death Note and Code Geass.

But I've found one that hasn't been dubbed yet. And I'm willing to read the subtitles for.

It's Moriarty the Patriot.

If you need a little more action and you don't want to read subtitles. I remember liking Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom when I watched it years ago. It's been a while though. I might give it a rewatch in the near future.

Final season of Attack on Titan started a few weeks ago. Hoping they give the anime a different ending than they did the manga.

A new one that I was not interested in that has gotten great reviews is My Dress Up Darling. I ended up checking it out because of all the hype and it is really good for a romance/slice of life anime.

I'm not a fan of anime. You guys piqued my interest. I watched Season 1 Episode 1, Attack on Titan. If If I have it right, Titans eat people so they can return to normal. Season 1 as far as I can see is 24 episodes. I'll see how far I can go.

I hang out with a lot of people that like anime. I just like good tv in general but not necessarily an anime watcher. Below are some shows I thought that are just as good as any prime time tv slow show:

Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Death Note
Rurouni Kenshin

Try to make it thru episode 8 or 9 before you give up on it. The Dub is decent but the original with subtitles is better. I know subtitles aren't for everyone though.

I don't think I'm going to make it that far. One time it's subtitled next it's spoken English with subtitles. I don't want to go through all that.

I can't say enough good things about Demon Slayer.

The manga ending to AOT was horrible. I pray for an Anime Original Ending.

Cyberpunk Edgerunners on Netflix is really good.

It's a mature anime though, so be warned. Not something to watch with the kids.

Chainsaw Man is fantastic. Show is wild.

Went to the theaters to watch Demon Slayer. They showed the final 2 episodes of season 2 and episode 1 of season 3. It was great watching the fight scenes on the big screen. Season 3 will be coming out on 4/9. If you are a casual anime fan, and haven't watched it yet, I highly recommend. It is beautifully animated.

Attack On Titan final season part 3 came out Saturday morning. It was really good. Still hoping for an anime only ending.

I enjoyed all 3 of those animes so much. I even read past the storylines with their mangas.

Same for One Punch Man.

I'm not a big anime fan, but I'm a big fan of the shows that I DO like if that makes sense.

AOT is basically my favorite show ever. Everyone should watch it. If it feels generic in the first season, just keep going. It doesn't go where you'd expect. I actually liked the manga ending, but I won't say anything more than that.

Chainsaw Man is already a big deal, but it's going to be a GIGANTIC deal when it comes back. The next season/movie(?) is going to have some of the best content in the series. It's really going to blow up. The writer for that series is an amazing talent. His one-shots are spectacular, if anyone reads manga I highly suggest taking a few minutes to read Goodbye, Eri and Look Back.

Vinland Saga is definitely worth checking out, really high quality.

There's some other ones I really love, but these are three recent ones that are really on my radar right now.

As I've stated, I'm not a fan of anime. AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER is visually stunning. 3D Cinema Camera Systems are amazing. The difficulty of making a series of poses and computerizing them to make movements fascinates me. I watched it just for visualization. 3:12:28 is too long. I watched it in segments. AVATAR premiered in 2009 14 years ago.

Demon Slayer season 3 ep 5 was great. Season 3 is shaping up to be another great season.
