I've been eating real good for a while now and I discovered most by myself. When you ask people for anime recommendations you get the usual ten shonen one fit size fits all list (nothing against shonen) nobody ever mentions land of the lustrous,girls last tour,haibane renme,etc. Most of this anime I discovered by mistake while going through more like this page and there were all 10/10 absolute bangers. God bless Nippon.

To be fair, if you don't find a way to hint that you're open to trying different genres and less popular shows, you'll keep getting mainstream stuff recommended to you.
Folks that watch stuff like Girls Last Tour and Land of the Lustrous don't tend to recommend it to just anybody cos the average viewer is more likely to bash it than appreciate it.

Baddestguyp:
Personally didn't like Land of the Lustrous...

And if you want more niche shows you can ask for those....

I've posted about a few shows that aren't that popular including Orb: on the Movements of the Earth, Legend of the Galactic Heroes and Rose of Versailles

I've only seen orb and while it was ok I doubt I'll ever rewatch. I haven't seen the other two yet.

Hope they do weekly releases this time. They're already doing it with some of their anime. They need to let JoJo shine this time

Anyone watching clevatess?

Thanks.Seen more than half of this list but I'll check out the rest.

Literally no idea why nairaland nuked 2 out of 3 mentions so I have no idea on who said what....even nuked my post too. Is this censorship or just an over zealous bot/mod?

Anyone watching clevatess?

Dropped it after few episodes, I’m not feeling it

Wow. As for me, I find it to be one of the best animes of 2025. Dark, gritty and action-packed!

Funny how I was coming to talk about it here.
The Summer anime I'm enjoying the most.
I thank the anime gods for getting me to finally check it out. And I'm happy I started it late, so I get to binge the episodes. Waiting for it weekly would've been torture.

Could be both, but we mostly suspect a bot that has gone mad

Is anyone else considering going to watch the Demon Slayer movie at Silverbird Cinema Ikeja City Mall tomorrow morning?

“Tougen Anki” and “Gachiakuta” are the best new series airing now and it’s way better than clevatess

This 2 anime is also dark, has better action, nice animation, decent story and many great characters you can look forward too.

Clevatess is dark adventures but I think I’ve seen similar stories like it before but that’s not the reason I drop it…….. I feel like it’s missing something though like the characters mostly the villains and action scenes is not giving.

Clevatess Is like those anime that are slow and will get better with more episodes and seasons but I can’t keep up cus a lot of series are airing same time and so I need to drop the ones I’m not feeling.

HOLY SHIT the Infinity Castle movie was amazing. the sound, the animation, everything was completely enhanced. Ufotable really Brought out their A game. Can't wait to see how incredible part 2 will be.

Hmm..
Demon Slayer, Infinity Castle.
That demon wey get six eyes...na only God know which hashira go beat am

Achilles100:
I can't get over Hayashi's rock show in Dan dadan.

LoL..I swear.
I remember the show pass the episode sef

Automolite:

Too elite

Episode 11

Episode 21

Automolite:
Hmm..
Demon Slayer, Infinity Castle.
That demon wey get six eyes...na only God know which hashira go beat am

This got me laughing hard

Wolf Brigade.. Anime or the live action movie?

NeoWanZaeed:

Anime.

The live action was adapted from the anime and changed the story and the ending

To be hero x


Interesting?

Call of the Night season 2 is also one of the best anime airing right now

NeoWanZaeed:

I dropped it but I want to continue.

My issue with it was that the story kept jumping across different protagonists across different time periods and giving so many different perspectives...

At first it seemed an interesting way to tell the story, but later it got tiring when every character arc or story was left incomplete with no idea when the show wild return to them...

After about 8 different protagonists, I lost interest since I didn't have any reason to care anymore...


But I saw some clips on YouTube about a certain character whose mystery I'm curious about, so I decided I'll continue and binge

Maybe they'll later bring those heros together later on.. The anime is still continuing or it has ended

It's already been renewed for seasons 2 and 3.

It's popular in China I believe

Holy shit, this got adapted? I've been following (at least attempting to follow) the manga for over a year now.

You need to specifically ask people wey know ball.

Literally just search "Houseki no Kuni" on Nairaland and you'll find me glazing this anime for over half a decade along with my other recommendations.

There are guys here with extensive anime knowledge that don't post as often.
