I just signed up for a two month free trial to Crunchy Roll and am a little overwhelmed by my options. Haven’t watched much anime in my life (Dragon Ball, Akira, Death Note, One Punch) maybe a couple others.
First thing I watched was Chainsaw Man and really loved the vibe and main character of Denji. Then I watched like 5min of Attack On Titan and just thought “this show is going to be a drag isn’t it” and stopped watching lol.
If anyone can suggest any Anime that’s not to melodramatic or take itself to seriously. My favorite genre trends to be Dark/Black Comedies. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
Attack On Titan doesn’t drag in my opinion and I totally recommend it. The 1st season is the “worst” of the bunch, but still a decent action anime, after that it becomes really solid with good suspense, mystery and political games (a lot of action too of course, but it takes a backseat).
I didn’t mean the show “drags” as in gets boring, but that the show seemed like “a drag” as in joyless and dire in tone. I got a good bit of stress in my life at the moment and AoT didn’t seem like what I need right now, I’m sure it’s great and I’ll get to it eventually.
Where I really enjoyed “Chainsaw Man” because it has serious bits where characters die and tragic backstories are revealed but, the main characters only motivation at one point is to touch someone’s boobs. I can appreciate the meta commentary and themes the creater is trying to get across but, there’s also a scene where someone gets kicked in the nuts repeatedly.
Yeah that’s fair
