Are there any animes or TV shows you can’t stop recommending?

    Monster. One of the best anime series I’ve ever seen.

      I tried. I tried so hard. Attempted 3x to watch this. First time I got 5 episodes in. Second time I got 12 episodes in. Third time I got 16 episodes in.

      Each time, I tried so hard to continue going. I’m sure it was great when it was released, but holy shit it was such a SLOG.

        I’m with you. I watched it all though. They really needed to speed things up.

        IMO, it’s not that great.

        It’s a seinen. If you’re more into shonen, then it’s not going to be as action-packed as you might be used to.

        I don’t normally watch the same thing more than once, but I’ve seen this one three times (first time in college; then some years later I wasn’t sure I finished it the first time, so I rewatched the whole thing again; then more years later I watched with friends from work on our weekly anime night)

          I’ve watched plenty of sienen that weren’t as bad as this.
