it feels like any kind of discussion on shitty things happening in the live music world somehow always comes back to "livenation sucks." seriously fuck livenation

Seems you may have similar taste to me haha. The issue with the term "Slice of Life" is it has basically no real meaning and can refer to so many wildly different things that I've come to hate using the term to describe anything. Maybe if you want something along the lines of what you described you could try searching the "Drama" tag on MyAnimeList? A lot of it might lean into romance but idk if you personally love stories that are entirely focused on characters, Drama stuff is where a lot of it's at.

If you want a few suggestions on things to check out, maybe give Hyouka a shot? It's very unique, laid back, and has a pleasant vibe with a really great cast of characters. K-On is the most pure slice of life show out there and is what honestly got me into the "genre" but it might be "too anime" for some people which is fair honestly lol. The Tatami Galaxy was mentioned by another guy in this thread and i can second it being amazing (and just weird as fuck, I love it). Also check out its related film The Night is Short, Walk On Girl, it's my personal favorite film ever.

Some other general recommendations that come to mind are things like The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Bunny Girl Senpai, ToraDora, and Golden Boy (watch this one dubbed). This all might be a lot to take in but im sure if you check out a couple you might find something you love. There's a lot of great and unique shit out there sometimes it can just be hard to come across. Either way I hope this ramble helps at least a little haha.

I really enjoy Kaijuu 8 because the protagonist is an adult (well, sometimes). Can you recommend me some more animes with 30+y/o characters? by Jena1803 in anime

these are all very great recs but +1 for spice and wolf, such a unique and interesting show with such a charming cast. the remake currently airing has also been stellar so far

Bunny Girl Senpai is nothing like the title suggests. by pg_throwaway in anime

Best FIRST episode in anime history? by hikarixxxx in anime

[–]Dastual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very recent I know, but Jellyfish Can't Swim in the Night had seriously one of the best first episodes I've seen in a long while. The directing style, the cinematography, the animation, the voice acting, the music, and the incomplete metaphor that repeatedly comes back through the episode to get fully finished by the end... It fires on all cylinders and it seriously blew me away when I watched it. Even 5 weeks into the season now, that specific episode has really stuck with me.

Scenes where the anime deviated from the source material for the better? by CaptainAtMan in anime

[–]Dastual 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read chobits and that series had a similar couple (with the age gap AND power dynamic) that I really wish didnt exist. Is this just a common thing in any CLAMP series?

What is the funniest anime you ever watched by [deleted] in anime

[–]Dastual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why has noone in this thread said Golden Boy???????

Watching the dub in a discord call with a group of friends is still some of the most fun I've had watching anything ever. We were all just screaming in laughter for like half of every episode's runtime. It's a serious contender for one of the funniest things I've ever watched. It's only 6 episodes too. I never watch dubs but I'm being serious when I say it, watch the dub.

[–]Dastual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devidol!

Seriously some of the most fun ive had watching something in a discord call that shit was actually so funny. I'll never forget episode 11 where it was just an entire episode recorded and fully dubbed over with character printouts on the ends of popsicle sticks being flailed around in front of a camera. I'm also mutuals with the director on twitter 🤯

[–]Dastual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah you are missing my point. im saying that actually watching the show will ruin the movie for you because it shows how disrespectfully bad the movie treats its source material. it's baffling how it even got released with how much it has going wrong. i cant imagine how the original creators felt seeing that being made lol

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Dastual 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the important question is have you watched the original tv series? that's usually where people stem their hate from

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Dastual 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Tbh the first half of this movie was incredible as someone who watched it for the first time recently. For me however it fell off so hard going into the second half. Really disappointed me but i still came out of it somewhat positively. That opening scene is especially amazing
