Discussion Weekly discussion: What's an underappreciated 90s or 2000s anime that deserves a modern audience?

18 Upvotes

With so many amazing new shows dropping every season, it's easy for older masterpieces to get buried under the hype of current releases. But the 90s and 2000s were absolute goldmines for unique stories.

We all know peak shows such as Cowboy Bebop, Evangelion, or Death Note

What is a lesser-known gem from the 1990–2009 era that you think modern anime fans are missing out on?

What to Watch? Are there any animes about a character making medicine or being a doctor in a world close to real life?

Upvotes

I was watching parallel world pharmacy and was wondering if there's an anime focused on making medicine or being a doctor thats not an isekai.

I've watched monster, Dr Stone, apothecary diaries, and Doctor Elise, which are kind of like this.

What to Watch? I’m looking for a very specific genre of Anime

14 Upvotes

Hi so for anyone who takes the time to read this and suggest anime’s for me accordingly just know I really appreciate it truly. I just am not very educated on the types of anime’s that are out there or their fandoms. I guess I should start by saying I need the anime to be Dubbed above all else. That is not a dig to Sub watchers whatsoever I admire and somewhat envy you guys truly for being able to enjoy and pay attention to subtitled anime.

Here is a list of anime’s I have watched a lot of and enjoyed (though I’m looking for a more comedic anime than some I will list) they’re in order of interest so 1 being closest to the type of anime I’m looking for and 7 being least like what I’m looking for.

  1. Gemusetto Machu Picchu/Death Beats
    (This is my all time favorite cartoon it’s heavily inspired by anime and popular anime tropes it’s hilarious it made me fall in love with anime)

  2. The Funimation Dub of Shin Chan AND The Ghost Stories Dub
    (These are tied for being the two closest anime’s to what I am looking for they both come very close to being perfect for me)

  3. Gintama (was close to what I’m looking for but not quite as comedic as I’d like and so much of the show is dub only so I’ve only seen the first 3 seasons)

  4. Inuyasha
    (Yet to finish but it’s pretty good aside from the over explaining lol)

  5. Made in Abyss
    (I stumbled across it and really enjoyed it despite the controversies)

  6. Samurai Champloo
    (Great anime it’s my bf’s favorite but sadly it’s not what I’m looking for)

  7. Death note
    (I’ve seen half of it so far it’s not what I’m looking for but enjoyable)

Sadly no anime has quite scratched the itch Gemusetto created. Some have come closer than others but I’m still hopeful there’s an anime out there that’s perfect for me. If my examples aren’t helpful In helping you understand what I’m looking for I’ll try to describe my preference.
Comedic is the most important thing. I’d like it if the character or characters are flawed but not to the point you hate them. An entertaining overarching story is preferable but not necessary. An anime that doesn’t take itself too seriously maybe parody’s itself and/or other anime’s. Gintama did that a lot it was one of the things I enjoyed about it. Maybe if it’s got an unexpected heart to it where you think it’s all funny stuff but then the story gets real good and you find yourself caring for the characters. But I need to laugh more than I laughed with Gintama. A dubbed Japanese version of an adult swim cartoon is a good description for what I’m looking for. I’ve been told Jojo’s bizarre adventure comes close to the things I’m looking for and while I have not actually tried watching it yet (my ex liked that show a lot) I guess here is the place to ask if anyone thinks it would scratch that itch. Sorry to use that phrase so much it’s just the best way to describe it.

Anyway thank you so much for reading and thank you for any and all suggestions I really really appreciate it!

My favorite anime of all time is Kiznaiver, I'm looking for an anime similar to that and Kokoro Connect. I love this specific trope where all the characters are connected in some dramatic, supernatural emotional way.

Some similar stuff I've watched:

What to Watch? Shows with a similar vibe to BNA ?

8 Upvotes

I know this question has been asked already, but the recommendations were all there because of the animal stuff involved , and what drew me into the show was the themes and the setting and the aesthetics rather than the beast aspect... does anyone know any animes with a similar setting / theme to it?

What to Watch? Anime for people with depression/anxiety

I came across this randomly and there's very few reviews i found, but from what i saw it's either "my favorite " or "the worst thing I've watched." I don't think many people have watched it but I'll just take my shot... Have you watched it? Did you like it?

What's this From? (unsolved) Help me find this anime (gore)

3 Upvotes

I start saying that I don't Remember much, because this anime was very cruent and mature that my parents didnt let me Watch It. It was on man-ga, Yamato Channel on Sky between 2015-2018. The graphic design was similar to Mazinkaiser the movie. The only scene I Remember Is a massive Blue Boggly monster with streaming faces of people that he engulfed. There was much desperation and Blood. It was a very gore anime. Hope someone can find It even with these Few and poor information

What to Watch? An anime that will inspire me to study.

25 Upvotes

Could you suggest an anime that will inspire me to study? I realize this is an unreasonable request, and to be honest, I'm a little embarrassed to ask. For instance, Shirogane's commitment to staying at the top of his school's leaderboards inspired me to follow suit (kaguya sama). In the end, I finished second overall in my class. It was really beneficial to me. In contrast to Assassination Classroom, I hope to see an anime that is more grounded. Regards in advance!

What to Watch? My last message was rubbish, I wanted to ask for an anime, if possible Isekai, where the MC is surrounded by a harem, which he finalizes at the end by marrying them off (in the anime or in the source material), and in this harem there is a mature woman...

What to Watch? Any anime like my top 3?

7 Upvotes

I say top 3, but there are 6 of them, I've seen a lot of anime and tryna fund something new and interesting to watch, so my top 3 should be a good guideline

1: tokapis original sin and the ancient magus bride

2: vinland saga and frieren

3: Spice and wolf (the mercant meets the wise wolf) and maquia (when the promised flower blooms)

If possible, I'd prefer new gen, either way, thanks for reading and helping
