Anybody around here watch the Anime?

[Ned Marcus]

I occasionally watch anime, but for the most part, I like the aesthetic more than the stories. I read more manga. Some in English, and some to help with my language learning. Actually, it's a fun way of doing that.

I think you could also point to most of the Studio Ghibli movies for a lesson on how to do it the right way. They strayed here or there a couple of times I think, but, for the most part, the Studio Ghibli films are beloved and, to my mind, rightfully so.

Before they founded Studio Ghibli, that animation team made a gorgeous adaptation of Anne of Green Gables (Akage no Anne, in Japanese) back in 1979. Really lovely series if anyone is a fan of the book and the Ghibli pastoral style.

Death Note is another good one I would put in there. None of that goofy stuff, almost exactly the opposite in fact. One Punch Man also comes to mind.
