RE: What People Who Dismiss Anime are Missing

in #anime8 years ago

There is a lot of phislophy in certain anime more than others.

Some top-notch anime are:

Ghost in the Shell (movies and series)
Psycho-Pass
Death Note
Code Geass
Appleseed

Naruto has some deep stuff here and there, but its a really long series.

There are other series as well. Like Bleach, but I focused on ones that have more.

Take care. Peace.

Sort:  

Oh yes, when I said "thought provoking " Psycho-pass was exactly what I was thinking of.

Other great examples of anime that really made me think:

Eve no Jikan
Haibane Renmei
Kino no Tabi
Kokoro Connect
Maoyuu Maou Yuusha
Mushi-shi
Spice and Wolf
Trigun

Here are some underrated anime that are equally mindblowing.
Shin Sekai Yori
Boogiepop Phantom
Paranoia Agent
Paprika
Perfect Blue
Memories
Erogo Proxy
Serial Experiments Lain
Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo
Jin-Roh
Harmony
Empire of Corpses

Thanks, are these philosophical or just a mix of things? I've watched Ergo Proxy. Parprika wasn't that interesting to me.

They are all very philosophical but to different extents. Paprika, Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo, Jin-Roh would be the least philosophical. If you try
Serial Experiments Lain
Boogiepop Phantom
Ghost in the Shell
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Those things can get too heavy even for academic. Basically I just love them.

Kara no Kyoukai is an anime that really forces you to think as does Fate Zero and Code Geass and Death Note. Even Attack on Titan has its moments. Please delve more into this subject.
