were there any other anime that you enjoyed?
ANOTHER BIG ASK LMAO
I was big into Haruhi Suzumiya (God Knows... almost made it onto that list of fave songs not in english lol) and Toradora for the LONGEST time! One of my high school teachers actually gave me half the manga volumes I own because he knew I loved it so much. I wore my hair like Haruhi every day for. A year? Maybe?? At least???? TRULY I WAS IN DEEP. Someone ruined them for me though lol still trying to win them back in my heart.
Naruto was like. 60% of my personality in middle school and high school. I think I've cosplayed every iteration of Itachi and some Sasuke too. Met some of my favorite people through cosplaying loser Uchihas. The music kicks ass. Kishimoto doesn't know how to write women. Fanfic authors always came to his rescue.
Yakitate! Japan. I don't have much more to say about that. Except it's VERY good and VERY fun and I never got into Food Wars because YAKITATE! JAPAN IS RIGHT THERE!!!!!!! I should probably get into Food Wars though.
Tokyo Mew Mew was FORMATIVE!!!! It's the series I read my first fanfic from! I made my own mewmew sona a while back (like. a few years ago. not in middle school LOL) it will ALWAYS hold a place in my heart.
MADOKA! Listen. I respect why people don't like the series. Girls deserve more than suffering. BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH LMAO HOMURA MY GIRL, and the visuals UGH THE VISUALS!!!! IT'S SO PRETTY!!!!
Also pretty was Made in Abyss, but again, I fully recognize why people stay away from it. But it's SO GOOD AND SO PRETTY AND OUCHIE. Perhaps there is a theme here,
I didn't get into Love Live! when it was still airing, and never really watched the anime until I got VERY into the rhythm game a couple year ago (I'd been playing way back in 2014, but stopped when I got a new phone and lost my old account but downloaded it around 2020 as something to do) and im kind of kicking myself because now all the merch of the OG girls is GONE! GIVE ME MY MAKI MERCH!!!!! I'm still very salty about the mobile game fiasco lmao but its okay because Project Sekai will save me :)
I feel like I could go on, but then it'd just turn into "what anime have you watched?" because im very bad at watching anime so I've only ever finished shows I truly like (or if a friend has sat me down and said 'we're watching this now :3' ) Full Metal Alchemist was also Formative, but I never actually sat down and watched Brotherhood all the way through lol I've seen Death Note a half dozen times I think which is weird because I would NOT consider it a fave yet it's probably the one I've seen most other than Haruhi (endless eight DNI)
I have not watched anything recently, but I love the Dungeon Meshi manga, and I think I might watch..fri....frieren? The little elf girl. That looks cute. It will probably destroy me.

I need to go to sleep, but the Delicious in Dungeon/Dungeon Meshi discussion is reminding me of Attack on Titan/Shingeki no Kyojin. When the title sounds weird in English, and the Japanese isn't too hard to grasp, I can see why people prefer the Japanese. For Dungeon Meshi I feel like it makes even more sense because Dungeon is borrowed so directly from English, so "Dungeon Meshi" is not hard to say. It's shorter, even. I get why it needed an English title, because meshi isn't a commonly known word, but I bet it'll become a lot more well known now.
I feel like this might be an ongoing list of how titles get treated, as I think of them.
All English (=fully translated)
Captain Corinth
Assassination Classroom (Ansatsu Kyoshitsu)
Fullmetal Alchemist (Hagane no Renkinjutsushi)
Beyond the Boundary (Kyoukai no Kanata)
The Summer Hikaru Died (Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu)
Classroom of the Elite (??)
the Grimoire one...wait, Grimgar
Your Lie in April (shigatsu wa kimi no uso)
Attack on Titan (shingeki no kyojin)
Blood Blockade Battlefront (?) (Kekkai Sensen)
The Executioner and her Way of Life (and good thing they did, too... something something virgin road)
Erased (Boku dake ga inai machi)
The Saga of Tanya the Evil...?
The Night is Long, Walk On Girl (I definitely have that wrong)
Black Butler (but I call it Kuroshitsuji so often I almost forgot about the English name)
Run on Your New Legs (?)
Laughing Under the Clouds (donten ni warau)
All Japanese (includes Japanese words that aren't proper nouns)
Akane-banashi
Oshi no Ko
Gintama
Yugioh
Haikyuu!!
Hikaru no Go
Asobi Asobase
Kagurabachi
Tegami-bachi (I think)
(Tengan Toppa) Gurren Lagann
Yamishibai
Jujutsu Kaisen
Toradora
To-rabu (?)
Uma-musume (?) ('Horse girl' just doesn't sound right >>)
Doraemon (this sound probably go in the "both anyway" category
Sazae-san?
Nanbaka
Dorohedoro
[It's probably examining which ones I put in this category versus which ones I put in 'It's Both Anyway' that's interesting]
Some Japanese, some English (/some proper noun):
Bungo Stray Dogs
My/Boku no Hero Academia
Fugou Keiji Balance Unlimited (?) (I called it the Daisuke anime, anyway)
Blue Exorcist
Katekyo Hitman Reborn
Kaiju No.8 (I'm counting Kaiju as the English word)
Ranma 1/2
Kado: The Right Answer (Sekaisuru Kado) (these categories are starting to blur)
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure (Jojo no Kimyou na Bouken)
Arslan... (Arslan Senki)
March Comes in Like a Lion (sangatsu no lion) (??)
Yona of the Dawn (Akatsuki no Yona) (I often just call it Yona)
Gargantia on the Verduous Planet (Suisei no Gargantia)
Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (... meidoragon?)
Ya Boy Kongming (Paripi Koumei) well, I guess technically that's fully translated...
Ouran High School Host Club (Ouran koukou host-bu)
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles (does it have more Japanese...?)
Wandance!
Crayon Shin-chan (I think the -chan keeps it out of the 'but both' category)
Seraph of the End (owari no seraph)
Vampire Knight (it was Vampire Kishi, right??)
Keep it but add on:
Ajin: Demi-Human
Magi (??)
Ano Hana ? (this actually seems like a good fit for this category)
Bofuri?
It's both anyway: (or it's a name/proper noun)
Bleach
Naruto
Undead Unluck
MamaYuYu
Free!
Noragami
Code Geass
Fruits Basket (had to keep the s on Fruits I guess)
SkipBeat
Hunter x Hunter
Yuri on Ice
Ruroni Kenshin
Inuyasha
Given
Yuyu Hakusho
Karneval
Boys Run the Riot
Re:Zero (??)
Black Clover
i tell c
FLCL (sorta?)
Evangelion
Cowboy Bebop
One Piece
Death Note
Sword Art Online
Chobits
Macross
Sailor Moon (I guess really bishoujo senshi sailor moon)
Claymore
Kill la Kill (sorta?)
Date-A-Live
D.Gray-man

Chainsaw Man
Mob Psycho 100
Angel Beats
Brand New Animal
Made in Abyss (??)
Deadman Wonderland
Zombieland Saga (is that right? Also Saga is doing so much there)
Cantarella
Wind Breaker (?)
Cardcaptor Sakura (??)
I'm thinking it may mostly have to do with whether they were already out when I heard about them, or they gained traction before official release (...of the anime...?)
