Next Anime for Tier 2?
Added 2023-10-14 22:16:12 +0000 UTC
So I will be finishing 'Your Lie in April' soon.
We need to have some ideas of what you all want for the next title to join the Tier 2 set.
It would be helpful if you reply to comments on titles that you like or thumbs up to them.
Anything for me to assess so I can create a vote based upon the most popular 3 or 4 titles.
Thank you!!!!

If you're down for a musical;
Revue Starlight is about about students competing (via duet/stage combat) for the lead role of the school play.

I know several others have suggested Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood and I dropped a like on those but throwing this comment in just to say I think you'd really enjoy the story of this one, when I first watched it I binged the whole thing in a few days I was so hooked!

Tip: Instruct us for the next time to only comment an anime once and to look through the comments for the anime we want to mention. That way you have to read waaay less comments and we can all just give a thumbs up to the anime we like and comment under it stuff we wanna say about it.
And the rule should be: Only one anime per comment.

Not many people said Nodame Cantabile but I'll throw my vote in for it anyways. It's about students in a classical music program in university so I've been curious about what you'd think about how the show portrays college music education. It's also a bit different from Hibike Euphonium since the characters are older.

This might be the most disingenuous way I've seen someone try to cut down a show I've seen outside of Twitter. Even more so considering there are things in Overlord many would find distasteful.

Samurai Champloo! The hip-hop inspired music and show are creatively intertwined and the story is well thought out. You follow a trio of protagonist who set out across a unique version of ~1700's Japan. The character growth is wonderful and ever present throughout. 23 episodes

Samurai Champloo.
The music for the show was in part made by Nujabes.
Nujabes was a big influence to Lo-Fi Hip Hop.
And thus the show is very iconic for combining hip hop and samurai elements smoothly together.
There are definitely very cool bass and drum elements in there.
It’s a short anime (26 Episodes).
The story has humor, action and depth.
The directing and storytelling are in my opinion peak and already visible from the first episode on.
When I think of the anime, it reminds me of the feeling of looking up at the starry sky at night or being on a journey, pausing to let my gaze glide over the landscape, watching the wind sweep over it.
Oh… and it also has a very iconic and badass drum roll scene!!! With its own soundtrack called „The Million Way of Drum“.

If you're looking for something more fantasy to really scratch that DnD itch, I recommend:
Overlord (main character is basically a dungeon boss)
Goblin Slayer (its subtly implied the "gods" of the world are dnd players, rolling dice with their lives)
Konosuba (absolutely hilarious, and the only anime I've ever rewatched 3 times before).
Deathnote is an anime classic that you've seen. For other classics most people know about, I recommend:
Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood (there's another version, but Brotherhood is the prefered for most people.)
Cowboy Bebop (smooth jazzy space adventure, with one of the coolest protags)
Hellsing Ultimate (Brutal animation about vampires and Dracula)
Trigun (recently got remastered, and looks amazing)

2023-10-15 06:48:50 +0000 UTC
Haven't seen anyone else recommend this show yet, but thought I would throw it out there anyways.
March comes in like a Lion: A story about a young Shogi (Japanese chess) professional who's struggling to find his way through life. I love the way the author explores the characters in this show and I felt that the OST did a great job setting the mood.
Thanks again for all the reactions!

Definitely want to check out Vinland Saga. The music in the show is composed by Yutaka Yamada and it just hits hard when you hear the music paired with the scene your watching. The show is great you see some real character development and see how someone changes. Definitely high on my list.

Putting out there Inuyashiki: Last Hero as a wild card. I know most people haven't even heard of it but it's an insane one season show that really deserves more attention.
Nick K
2023-10-15 04:51:15 +0000 UTC
Golden Kamuy has slowly worked it's way to becoming one of my favorite shows. The story is really good, all the characters are interesting, and sometimes it goes so far into left field that I almost choke laughing. Also weirdly educational and wholesome at times.
Nick K
2023-10-15 04:48:42 +0000 UTC
Now that he's seen some current big name anime, I think it's fitting he dive into the classics like Bebop
Nick K
2023-10-15 04:43:50 +0000 UTC
Mushishi is a good one if you're enjoying the calmer and more introspective Frieren. Madoka Magica for more action - it's pretty bizarre but it's also short and sweet.
Kevin Dong
2023-10-15 04:43:39 +0000 UTC
Golden Kamuy is a weird anime with a sense of humor like Jojo's. But it has a very interesting plot almost similar to a western.

Also I love Vinland Saga but it is like THE most popular show of the last couple years, and I think it would make a lot more sense as a Tier 1 show eventually.

Echoing "Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad" big time. Great show about music and relationships around bands and the like but in more of a grungy rock way. Major 90s/early 2000s vibes from the animation, soundtrack and characters.

Eighty Six! 23 episodes, great story, one of my all time favorites, but also an amazing soundtrack. The soundtrack was done by Hiroyuki Sawano (who of course, needs no introduction) and Kohta Yamamoto, the dynamic duo behind Season 4 of Attack on Titan's soundtrack.

If you gonna do "Fullmetal Alchemist" just keep in mind: 2003 version is WAY better than "brotherhood". Yea, FMA'03 is not a "canon", it was out when manga not ready and FMAB is "true canon story with logical ending" blah blah blah.
Just saying as person who watched both versions - FMA'03 is cooler, has deeper characters relationships, more focused on drama than on "funny chibi-like stuff" and it hooks you emotionaly in the finale the way FMAB not able to do.
Guys who like Brotherhood, that's just my humble opinion =)
d_swordfish
2023-10-14 22:45:50 +0000 UTC

You should watch **Stein's Gate** if you want a more emotional and less action oriented anime. It is also very very highly rated.
JujutsuKaisenFan
2023-10-14 22:39:09 +0000 UTC
Eighty Six - 23 Episodes (for the story and action)
Demon Slayer - 48 episodes, 1 movie (for the animation and action)
Violet Evergarden - 12 Episodes, 2 Movies (for the soundtrack)
Blue Lock - 24 Episodes, or Haikyuu - 85 episodes (for your first sports anime)
Steins Gate - 47 episodes or Summertime Render - 25 episodes (for time travel)
