Anime fans quizzed on what type of anime they would like to see more of seem to be tired of the staple bishoujo anime formulas, instead craving more long-running originals boasting high production values – although they would say that, wouldn’t they?
1. Original anime (as opposed to adaptations)
2. Anime with more than 2 seasons
3. Emotional anime
4. Anime with gorgeous art
5. Continuations
6. Comedy/gag anime
7. Anime with all star seiyuu casts
8. Quality over quantity!
9. Heart-warming anime
10. Romance anime
11. Robot anime
12. SF anime
13. “Healing” anime
14. Adventure anime
15. Anime with appealing protagonists
16. Future anime
17. History anime
18. Freely distributed anime
19. Anime adapted from novels and light novels
20. Moe anime
21. Anime based on classic literature
22. War anime
23. Sports anime
24. Ghost & monster anime
25. Tsundere anime
“Ero” is also narrowly beaten by tsundere…
With most of the staples of the last decade evidently at saturation point, it seems what fans really think they want is more along the lines of Code Geass and Madoka – although unfortunately producing such hits is probably vastly more difficult and less financially rewarding than simply providing an endless succession of Type B schoolgirl anime, which it seems anime fans lap up irrespective of their vociferous complaints.

I'd love a romantic anime that isn't typical shoujo garbage...
Come to the Josei side.
Like shoujo romance, but with more smut!
Like shoujo romance, but with stuff actually happens.
A shoujo anime with an actual sensible plot, you mean?
why not.
Then it wouldn't be shoujo would it?
needs more vaginaaaaaa!
Spice and Wolf S3 plzkthx.
singed! More Spice and Wolf high class anime!
I want more sequels, too many anime were left with merely 12 episodes.
but i admit i want to see more queens blade!
I-it's not like #25 is my favorite or anything.
To be honest Tsundere anime are abit annoying... They just use the "Tsundere" side of one character to overextend the anime.
The world need more cyber punk, gothic (moe and shonen crap doesn't count)and mind fuck anime.
Dear god, yes.
I agree with you so much that it hurts.
Needs moar Gen Urobuchi *cough* Saya No Uta anime *cough*
yes, because more frightening music, more lovely Saya art, and mostly becouse of animated Saya
and no, because thecensorship will ruin the whole thing
Saya No Uta? I like the VN, but I must say, I'm more interested in viewer response rather than the anime itself.
Much tears and wailing to be had. Oh, yes.
New season off Ghost in the Shell maybe?
What about an Appleseed anime, i had heard some rumours about one being in the pipeline.
Guest that wasn't true.
I'm glad there is a second Last Exile season coming, hopefully that one will be good =]
>What about an Appleseed anime
Apple Seed XIII
Anon of 18:54 29/09/2011 has already mentioned it.
Looks wise it's rather disappointing.
Story? Still too soon to tell, considering how the author likes his slow build ups.
Ghost in the Shell is like the Law&Order of Anime. It's always watchable.
Hear Hear anything without too much romance.
Too much details on love anyway of course yuri is fine
Cyberpunk gothic mind fuck anime?
WH40K Mechanicus Titan Legion against a Tzeentch/Slaanesh invasion.
I can't believe I'm saying this but we don't need anymore ero. We need some anime with some damn solid plots for once. Anime creators are now thinking that flashing tits blinds us all to their shitty, cliche plots. The problem is that they have become SO cliche that it's impossible to ignore.
I would actually like *more* ero, just not shitty ero. that means quality animation as well as original plot and characters (or at least not the same rehashed harem crap with the same obnoxious character types we've seen 1000 times already). have more "normal" body types, not just have the now overdone giant oppai on every other girl. no more bullshit censorship either. it really irks me when some conveniently placed object covers the goods. and probably as an addendum to better animation, fewer rehashed viewing angles. I actually don't want every pantsu or boob shot to be an ultra zoom in.
and more lolis couldn't hurt either
Myself? I would actually like more yandere. Even if we have another protagonist that I would like to punch repeatedly in the face like in School Days.
KanojoXKanojoXKanojo. Rehashed harem ero anime. But Mafuyu makes it very watchable
@Marine-RX179
If I'm not mistaken, you're thinking of ecchi anime as being fanservicy. Anon 11:43 is correct in his descriptions of ero anime I believe. I could be wrong, but I've always understood that to be the distinction since 'ero' is short for 'erotic' and that definitely has sexual overtones.
And I agree, personally I would love to see an ero anime that is given quality. One of the most sexy, romantic, and generally erotic moments in anime was the ending of Toradora when she's silently asking for one more kiss. I imagine that an actual sex scene with that level of sensuality and drowning in affection for one another could be a very poignant scene. Not that scene in particular, mind you, as far as I'm concerned that scene was perfect. I mean just attempting to give subtle motions and character to the sensuality of the moment to give the characters their own sense of the erotic AS characters.
But I also must admit, sex in movies usually feels forced and stupid. When it exists for laughs and general arousal in anime, it's more funloving and there to make you smile, KNOWING they're pandering. In Watchmen I found myself wanting to slap the shit out of the director when there was the sex scene on the couch, which was tasteful, and then they save the people in the burning building, and then there's like a 5 minute scene devoted to his ugly ass thrusting. It was insulting to me that they wasted my time on a redundant and irrelevant scene.
So it's a tough thing to decide where the context for sex belongs in any medium, and most especially how it's portrayed.
Oh, oh! I watch it for Mafuyu too!
"ero" anime means anime with lots of fanservices (i.e. pantyshots, nake girls etc)...what you are thinking is "hentai" anime.
But yea...most people that watch KanojoXKanojoXKanojo watch it for Mafuyu, reactions to the other two girls are kinda "meh"...
Ero where the genitalia looks realistic would be nice, too. It kinda kills the mood if the point of the whole show is badly done, like a mecha anime with shitty mech designs.
"Anime creators are now thinking that flashing tits blinds us all to their shitty, cliche plots."
It does unfortunately. Looking back on anime like mayo chiki this season.....
blinding because of the censoring or the actual tits? :trollface:
how about harem comedy WITH plot, decent artwork, character development, episodic and 26+ episodes?
Sounds like Negima there.
implying negima is actually good
>negima
>character development
pick one
Negima the manga is good. Negima the anime is horrid. Need more faithful adaptation. No fillers, split arcs into seasons.
Negima is good.
If only they could make a GOOD version.
awesome is louder than harem in negima.
Sounds like Shuffle? Nobody said that?
No, no harem, please, no!!
We need anime that avoids cliche and introduces totally original plot elements that nobody ever imagined before.
Something completely and utterly original, and not in any way cliche.
Something like... Russian Orthodox Christians conducting weaponized chemistry fueled by breast-feeding?
If there was an anime like that, I'd most certainly watch it for the plot.
"Russian Orthodox Christians conducting weaponized chemistry fueled by breast-feeding"
I see what you did thar :3
One of the biggest things I've ever been upset about is how royally screwed up Hyakka Ryouran was.
It had an ORIGINAL plot, it wasn't based off any manga, and it had such promise. The first 2 minutes of episode 1 really wowed me and I thought "man this is gonna be an awesome anime!"
But then the next 286 minutes were just a bunch of harem crap and I cried nearly every episode at the massive loss of potential.
"Russian Orthodox Christians conducting weaponized chemistry fueled by breast-feeding?"
WhatisthisIdonteven!
Actually he's describing seikon no qwaser, if you haven't caught on that is
"Russian Orthodox Christians conducting weaponized chemistry fueled by breast-feeding"
Soooo...Jewelpet Tinkle, right?
have you tried seikon no qwaser? >.>
Sure, the "plot". I saw what you did there.
And I'd most certainly watch too.
Just ask them to remake all the older animes like Berserk, Yu Yu Hakusho, or Hunter X Hunter in their original manga form. Blood, guts, and no fucking censoring. And hopefully they'll make an anime of Zetman.
i want more queens blade, but not so much for the tits as for knowing more of the characters, i loved Airi after the character development she had, and is funny since is amongst the most well covered characters of the series.
ME WANTS MORE TSUNDERE!!
You know what? All I ask from an Anime is to be entertained. Be it through a thought provoking plot, great characterization or brilliant humor. Anime doesn't necessarily need to have a complex plot, violence or fanservice to be good. It doesn't even need to be original. All it has to do is to do what it does well.
And seriously, the damn word cliche has become a cliche in its own right. Honestly, at this point in time, practically everything is a cliche and it really goes without saying. The thing is, there are good cliches and bad ones. What we must do is to differentiate the two.
Damm .
You must be my clone :D
I agree with everything you say.
Quality over quantity!
Couldn't agree more.
EXACTLY! Animation counts! Realism counts!
WUT wheres the loli anime?
How about "Plot based anime that didn't get finished?"
I'm looking at you Twelve Kingdoms!
I love Twelve Kingdoms!
Always wonder how that 12 year old brat Queen of Kyou ascend to the throne. it really piss me off when they stop it
It's funny because while it was not completely faithful to the novels since the king of En is the main character over there, they still made a really good adaptation.
Hell I would like to see an adaptation of Jojo Bizarre adventure arc 4 or 6, since "Golden Wind" to this day on my heart is the epitome of how you can fully adapt a manga to a game and do it, in the most awesome way possible.
I'm just going to name some of my favorites and say, "more like these."
Cowboy Bebop
Gilgamesh
Garden of Sinners
Ghost in the Shell
Witch Hunter Robin
Read or Die
PlanetES
Give me more like that.
dont forget baccano!
Hentai anime for me XD
WOW
So no K-ON! number one today, good.
Moar robot anime...
WHERE'S SHIN GREAT MAZINGERRRRR?
WHERE IS FULL METAL PANIC SEQUEL!?
I think 6 years has passed since TSR...
make a tsundereXyandere anime, that would be beast
Where's my ヤンデレガールアニメ on that list? I really would like to see those girls love the main character as much as possible and get rid of the obstacles of their love. They are so insane cuties... I mean who doesn't love them? Their eyes when these girls stare other people is causing my heart jump. And the drama is usually well written and very original. Maybe that's the reason we don't see that kind of anime that often?
PS. I trust you do know what ヤンデレ means... If you don't, Google (image) search helps...
I'm sure most people around here do know what yandere means, but I'm not so sure they can read "I'm going to type this way just because I can, even though nothing would be lost through romanization" katakana.
Oh, and it's #33.
more loli with an actual plot would be nice
please spice and wolf s3!! D;;;;;;;;;;!!!!
#1 = Anime That Does Not Suck.
"1. Original anime (as opposed to adaptations)"
They want it risky, eh?
I go for plot or anything that makes me wanna watch more
despite the poll, ecchi anime are still mushrooming, where's my clannad???
So basically, it all averages out to what we have now...
I want some more good mecha anime, though.
More Vampire Hunter D, like "Fortress of the Elder God" or "Rose Princess"...
Oh yeah, that would be awesome. I would like to see the second novel "Raiser of Gales" or "the Dark Road"... both are kind of awesome.
more animes with master strategists like Lelouch Lamperouge and Yagami Light
OUTLAW
FUCKING
STAR
MAKE MORE OF THAT YOU FUCKS
that series died when raoh died
How about...a protagonist with a backbone.
"although unfortunately producing such hits is probably vastly more difficult and less financially rewarding than simply providing an endless succession of Type B schoolgirl anime"
ohoh, I KNEW IT!!
fortunately, the Fall lineup is not flooded with moeblobs..
They want more original anime but they didn't like Anime-no-chikara project as much as K-on series.
I don't care about these choices.. Just give me a decent Mecha Musume anime with a good and balanced story and light fanservice...
Space Opera FTW!!!!!!!
Seikai series, people?
Crest of The Stars, Banner of the Stars, Tytania, Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu...
A second season of Tytania would be nice, considering it kinda ended half way through.
Hopefully LESS shitty harem anime.
I'd like super-rory tsundere detective series (gosick) to replace the curren annoying-shota detective (coonan)
tsundere anime and moe anime are the two things we need less of. they are easily the worst trends in anime today
Anime that doesn't feature teens as main characters.
Anime with MCs that actually have a boyfriend/aren't virgins.
Anime with non-Japanese characters or settings(and none of that half-Japanese shit either.)
I miss great anime like Nadesico, Gate Keeper, and Dual ... which all are made by Gonzo ...
moar ww2 animes...cuz they're just less of that in the anime industry
I hate misleading anime...like on the picture above...its kinda like a rip-off of nanoha...
Is it bad of me to wish for something like Seirei no Moribito, Aria, or Law of Ueki? I really enjoyed those three.
Uhh No... No... No, remove moe anime out of that list right now... You already have a hell lot.
I am in favor of the top choice
We need more cars like they build at:
