Radio Spiricom posted:i picked up the first volume of monster at barnes and noble the other day and i read six or seven chapters and i was hooked and plan to continue it. the problem is that i realized later on its like 150+ chapters and it seems like a pretty drastic undertaking. i'm already worried about my visual media consumption habits as is and don't need to add to them. individual series: domu, ressentiment, nijigahara holograph is like a volume long and would be the first asano series i'd start you off on, the world is mine is 163 chapters but i'll always find any opportunity to plug it

Terrarium in Drawer and Ashizuri Aquarium are both excellent single volume anthologies.

Manga or anime that treats alcoholism as a main plot point or at least as a prominent subplot?

Motto posted:What are some original/standalone movies people would recommend from the last few years? I had the opportunity to actually go out and see a few (Your Name, Maquia, Liz, Night is Long) when they got theater runs, but I feel like there are probably a lot that slipped my mind between getting announced or received and becoming available in English one way or the other.

Kokoro Wish posted:Actually related (and not really looing for a recommendation, but if there is one, great), but has there been a series that is basic harem/romcom, but the main character actually ends up with another member of the harem romantically, as opposed to who would be considered the main/default girl? I'm guessing that the industry in general is too safely conservative for even that most of the time.

Paper Lion posted:but in terms of romcom representation, mmo junkie is ok but i would absolutely replace it with Tada Never Falls In Love or Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy/My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU. i know you didnt ask for more stuff on your list but it seemed like a genre that was pretty underrepresented If you want a high school romcom that's a hilarious farce and weaves whole gags out of relationships never progressing, there's nozaki-kun If you want a high school romcom with a similar sense of humor but also allows for gradual progress and character development, there's kaguya-sama If you want a shoujo romcom that wholeheartedly indulges in romance, maybe some other poster can provide a suggestion

DetoxP posted:I'm not a huge anime person in general - based off friend's recommendations I've tried quite a few (mostly shounen) but always trailed off from losing interest - but then I happened to watch A Place Further Than The Universe and absolutely loved it. I think I liked just the fact that it was heart-warming, somewhat cathartic, and relationship centered rather than action-centered. Just tell me what I should watch based off that please. (I searched the thread and mostly saw this being recommended to people rather than jumping off from that as a starting point). I'm open to sci-fi and fantasy but generally favour stuff that takes place in the real world, historical or not. March Comes in Like a Lion seasons 1 & 2 Orange - I think the premise ends up being kind of goofy, but it has a lot of heart Movies: In This Corner of the World Liz and the Blue Bird - based off of Sound! Euphonium seasons 1 & 2, which would also be worth your time, but it's honestly not a prerequisite for enjoying this one Children of the Sea - the plot teeters on the edge of incoherence (and often drops off into it), but I also think it's so gorgeous with a spectacular climax that I think it would not end up not bothering you as much

Rosalind posted:Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju - This one was strange. The pacing was super off like it felt like I was watching the highlight reel from a longer show. For instance, the woman living with the older actor guy just suddenly declares that he killed her father and then the scene ends and we're off on this other scene a few days later like this huge reveal didn't just happen. I enjoyed the art and I liked the idea conceptually--they also do a good job making one guy on a stage telling a story interesting, but everything else just hampered it for me. Probably won't watch more. 4/10.

pork never goes bad posted:I've been enjoying some romcom type anime and manga recently but a lot of em are set in highschool and feature pretty gratuitous fan service of underage characters. I'm looking for recommendations that aren't quite so skeezy, both manga and anime. Things that are somewhat low fan service, with adult protagonists, cute character designs with distinctive individual partners (I'm interested in both straight and gay stories in this sorta space with any combo of genders - I really want the main protagonists to feel like they have a connection more than I have any desires for who the protagonists are or even how many of them there are, though prototypical harem stories have a hard bar to clear), and romantic payoff achieved in like not a huge investment of time. I haven't read or watched a ton in this sorta genre but for an anime Sign of Affection is an imperfect example from this season, kaguya-sama could be perfect if they were in college, and the manga for Hokkaido gals has just a bit too much fan service for my tastes and is a little slow. I'm hoping y'all can point me to some cool manga and anime. completed: futari ashitamo living, eating, sleeping together catch these hands! the snow country hunting life of the northern nobleman and the eagle-like wife ongoing: cuprum's bride mobuko no koi more than lovers, less than friends note that some of these are officially licensed and could be more difficult to look up on  sites
