Can anyone recommend me an anime? I recently watched “My Love Story!!” and it was so good. Yes, it was cheesy and overdramatic, but that was part of the charm. I loved how sweet and wholesome it was, and I really loved the characters. I also found it really funny.

It doesn’t have to be a romance anime, though I am totally up for that as I have gotten into some romances this year (I also liked Yamada’s First Time, which normally ecchi stuff isn’t my thing, but it wasn’t terribly gratuitous, it was sex-positive, and I got pretty hooked into the story and found it hilarious, too).

Just looking for something similarly touching, wholesome, funny, and fun to watch with likable characters, like “My Love Story!!”

Any thoughts? :)

  • All mine are a a little action oriented, but not overly focused on that alone. Angel Beats for the fun theme and wholesomeness. I was very surprised by the show, didn’t know what to expect and left surprised.

    Death Parade for the themes of mortality and psychological horror (it’s not too bad, though it does have some painful moments but it’s nothing grim). It’s not lighthearted like the others but it’s a very, very well done show.

    Trigun for the themes of nurture vs nature - give the first couple episodes some slack. It’s an older 26 episode anime and it picks up very quickly.

    I also don’t know how verse you are in anime but if you haven’t already, Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood is pretty much the quintessential show with its themes of philosophy and human nature.
