I stopped caring about "seasonal anime" long ago.
What's the point of endlessly consuming the same cycle of repetitive trash. But still sometimes I come across a gem, sometimes just the mediocre stuff and then it makes me wonder on how much stuff we miss out, completely forgotten, especially when I find some obscure mid 2000s anime.

>>35396right now I'm watching "sketchbook full colors", it's your typical slow paced SoL anime.
Otherwise there is also "Key the Metal Idol" and although much more popular than the other too I mentioned, I also watched "Haibane Renmei" recently.
Then another typical romance SoL is "Ai Yori Aoshi".
Just some random anime I happened to remember, there are many more of course.
Just look up shows in specific years on myanimelist - 2003 for example if you want the early y2k aesthetic - just look for things that seem interesting to you. They can be sorted by genre.
There is just some special atmosphere about those forgotten things that is strangely appealing to me.

>>35372I took a bit of a hiatus from anime but I just came back to it recently. I'm starting to go back and look for old 80's anime to watch. Then I plan to go through 90's and 2000's. While also watching seasonal anime if I feel like it. Myanimelist or similar sites are probably a good way to find anime. Just make a big 'plan to watch' list.
No.35640
>>35398Not if you understand the anime market. Japan stopped selling shows and started selling character designs. Every show is now designed around what succubi it can include and what gets green lit depends on that season's succubus selection. Instead of asking how to make a character interesting they ask how many Rei and Asuka clones they have wearing glasses or with short hair. It's the era of database anime, you select your character profiles from a database knowing otaku will hunt out their fetishists and watch no matter how bad a show is. Slice of life is the cheapest way to do it and so that's the most produced genre.
No.35641
I use free steaming sites.
Just use a web search that isn't google and you can find loads of sites that have more anime then you will ever watch + up to date releases in HD.
It really ain't hard.
No.35642
>>35640You say that yet every season there are male focused action shows with few to no notable females or mascot characters.
Anime is a big enough market that there is usually something for every taste every season. If you don't like moe blobs or harem non-sense there are plenty of other things that are likely more to your taste.
That said I personally don't keep up with currently airing stuff and watch most things a year or two late once the hype has died down.
No.35643
>>35642Those male focused shows still have stronk womyn and bullshit pushed into them.
I like mecha. Mecha doesn't exist outside of OAVs any more. You get toddler toy commercials and CGI harem animes now. The days of a masculine mecha show are over because Japan is full of soy boys buying PVC junk from china.

>>35655He probably will still complain about those too since they usually still have females in them at some point.
He want shows that are exclusively about and involving men, but probably would feel a certain way about the shows that are like that which do come out almost every season
because they are super gay.

>>35676>I've been seeing a lot of anime with "netflix" in their intros and every single one I watch turns out to be utter dreckThe corporate motto of Netflix Japan is「ひとりじゃない、世界がある」which can be read "we're not one people, we're global". When Netflix made Ghost in the Shell 2045 adopt a Pixar-aesthetic their aim is obvious: buy out and merge all cultural properties so they can be integrated into one, global market.

>>35682The west is the only reason anime exists in the first place. After WW2 Japan's society was torn down and restructured to be Westernised which included it's media. It's why Westerners can consume it so easy, it's an Asian lens over their own media.
Netflix and Crunchy roll are both sponsoring anime shows in the opening while Cartoon Network used to do it in the background. Big O got a second season just from American audiences. Games companies like Capcom have been trying to capture the Western market since the 1980s and tried extra hard in the 2000s. People who think anime is some sacred art form are retarded and need to wake up to the real world.

Crunchyroll gets people who are outspoken against anime and Japanese culture to localize series. Crunchyroll purchases smaller, reputable studios and then fires all employee, falsifying a monopoly.
Anyone who used Crunchyroll can be safely assumed to dislike anime and manga.
