Maelstrom Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Can anyone recommend me a good military anime to watch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HughJ Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Code Geass and Koutetsujo no Kabaneri roughly fit that criterion I suppose, I'm not aware of it being a big anime genre The first follows a banished prince's extensive and convoluted coup d'état of a mega-empire in an alternate history of the Earth. Lots of mechs, politics, insurrection, etc. The second follows a steam-engineer turned half-zombie royal guardian, more emphasis on epic fights than military structure though because any time you see civilization in that show you can guarantee that shit will be gone in a hot minute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Once upon a time I started Code Geass and immediately hated Lelouche the douche. After a couple of episodes, I gave up on it. To what episode should I skip ahead to? And watched Kabaneri. It's AoT 2.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyanna Cyril Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 He never really goes out of that stage, but you grow used to him. He's still 100x better than Rolo in Season 2. Hang in there! When you say military anime, do you want pure warfare or can it be like warring kingdoms battling through games? If the second is okay, then No Game No Life and Mondaiji Tachi... (Troubled Children are coming) are good recommendations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Hmm, No Game No Life has indeed been given some upvotes by several members around here. Guess I'll try it, thanks! Edit: First episode is somewhat like watching Kaiji. But the protagonists are pretentious neets. And the protagonist attitude seems to take a complete 180 in ep 2.

Active Raid isn't exactly military but I keep thinking of it trying to come up with other things so maybe look at that. e: disclaimer: I actually didn't finish that series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartar Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 28 minutes ago, Ikaru said: Without saying too much, you're totally supposed to hate him. If that helps. Hmm, what makes say think so? Lelouch is portrayed as a very sympathetic and heroic figure, not as someone you're supposed to hate early on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Ikaru Posted December 19, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 19, 2016 Well, that's why I said "without saying too much" but, his end goal was to direct all of the world's hatred unto himself and then having the (apparent) leader of the black knights kill him, giving everyone the opportunity to focus on more important things and ending all war. It's maybe not the case so early on, fair enough, but eventually his goal is simply to be hated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HughJ Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) I think the confusion is about who's intending the protagonist to be hated and why The studio wants the viewer to like Lelouch by revealing his more sympathetic side and his reasons for living. Lelouch as a character eventually has the motive to make the entire world hate him, but even in this you come to support him. A protagonist the studio wanted the viewer to hate would probably be Light Yagami from Death Note. But even then this was a specifically crafted hatred that mirrored the distaste you feel for an antagonist (part of the reason Light is an excellent actual antihero). Finally, there's what Maelstrom is talking about, which is disliking a protagonist based on their personality and attitude. In my opinion the best character I can correlate this with is Star the Kid, which combined with the art style led me to drop Soul Eater like five episodes in. Same thing with that fat weird-voiced nerd from Stein's Gate Generally not a good idea to purposely write your protagonists to be annoying if you want an audience past episode 5 Edited December 20, 2016 by HughJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Support Squad Felicity Posted December 20, 2016 Support Squad Share Posted December 20, 2016 1: If you dropped Steins Gate because of Daru within five episodes, you dropped it way, way too early. SG is largely set up for 12 episodes, cockslaps you on the thirteenth then leaves you with your jaw hanging in the breeze for what's left. Give that another go, Daru is an ancillary character. 2: Lelouche is a fuccboi but he pulls off some cool shit. There's a decent cast to make up for him if he isn't appealing as a character, main reason to watch is to see if the show can wow you one more time.

Drago777 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 (edited) I am a person who prefers the manga over anime, so any of my recommendations will be of manga, which some may even have an anime adaption for those who prefer watching it than reading. Berserk Nisekoi Area D Gamble Fish Sankarea Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul:Re Bleach Fairy Tail Attack on Titan Deathtopia Love Tyrant Dusk Maiden of Amnesia D.Gray-man One Piece Ajin Blood Lad Akame Ga Kill Unbreakable Machine Doll Defense Devil Black Butler Assassination Classroom Future Diary Deathnote Note, read the summaries of each and what genres they fall into so you know what your getting yourself into Edited February 19, 2017 by Drago777 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ainz Ooal Gown Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) Hmm.... Any light novels will be marked with * The reason i also put light novels here because some of those novels are really good I don't watch too much animes, don't read many mangas out there, and i literally only read 3 LNs for now, but.... whatever, here's the list: Shokugeki no Souma or Food Wars in English Overlord* Attack on Titan One Piece Detective Conan Konosuba* The Devil is a Part-Timer* GATE ( harem + too much japan's military glorified aside, this anime gives me a guilty pleasure XD ) Danganronpa [ also play it's games or watch someone's LPs if you don't wanna get confused about it's timeline ) Steins;Gate Kakegurui JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Ao no Exorcist Black Butler No Game No Life ( r.i.p this anime, it'll never gonna have a chance to get S2 T_T ) Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann ( don't question the logic, just follow the flow XD ) Re:Zero and the last one is Re:Creators But i also know that everyone have different tastes of something. So feel free to check any anime in this list's summary at MAL and see if any anime on this list caught your attention Edited October 18, 2017 by Ainz Ooal Gown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
