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.
HOW about something very original.
Like Chi’s Sweet Home?
triti
I miss great anime like Nadesico, Gate Keeper, and Dual … which all are made by Gonzo …
NADESICO~~~~~ f♥♥k I LOVE THAT SHOW!
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 s♥♥t either.)
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…
