Wanna help my wife a little? - Viral Dragon - May 7, 2014
So, members of AA,
I've seen ... a shit ton of anime. Too many to really help Icey anymore,
mainly because I'm just too bias or I don't care about tropes and cliches.
They're in every single anime, so I don't care about them.
Now, my question to you, can you suggest an anime for Icey to watch with
me? She's VERY VERY picky about them.
1) She HATES school-life type animes.
2) She HATES when literally everyone has to scream and shout every 5 seconds.
What she DOES like though, is psychotic bitches. For example, she likes
Highschool of the Dead (hotd) because of the trauma they go through, the
sheer psychotic breaks, the psychology of it, how they react that kind of
crap.
She likes SAO (Sword Art Online) because the people are forced to more
or less fight for their lives and experience more trauma/psychological impact
that will more or less scar them and what not.
Mostly people facing their imminent demise, how they react to their
extreme fear, and mostly people who enjoy extreme violence.
Anime she does like and would watch again. (or already has).
Cowboy Bebop (her absolute all time favorite - no question about it)
Outlaw Star
Zoids (Chaotic Century, Guardian Force, ...)
Inuyasha (first season)
Sword Art Online (not the dub though)
Highschool Of The Dead
Attack On Titan
Full Metal Panic (she liked Fumofu the most)
Elfen Lied
Black Lagoon
Noir
Azumanga-Daio
A lot of works by CLAMP (card captor sakura, magic knight rayearth, and so on)
She wold prefer the animes to be around 26 episodes. She doesn't like
super long animes. Would PREFER to NOT have any fillers or bs episodes.
She hates flashbacks. She LOVES psychotic woman (like Levi from Black Lagoon, Hanji from Attack on Titan, and what not). Not just killing for the sake of killing, but because of their backstory ...
She literally HATES though, school plots, fan service, redundant training, tournaments, flashbacking every 5 seconds, fillers. In fact, in her OWN
words, her NUMBER ONE sin for her is "Filler".
---
It's a lot to take in, and it's hard to come up with anime, mainly because I
like animes for their plots and how they're executed. So uhm ... please help?
I've been trying to get her to watch more anime with me, but damn is she
fcking picky about it.

Future Diary sounds like something she'd like.
* - Vamporno - May 7, 2014
Tell her to watch Clannad and Clannad After Story. If she doesn't like those anime then tell her to match Zero no Tsukaima.

crazy woman? Mirrai Nikki : Future Diaries.
* - Happeh - May 7, 2014
Mirai Nikki would probably be right up her alley, though it is 12(?) episodes.
Higurashi when they Cry is another fantastic series too - features some of the most psychotic girls I know. Long and a great story around the girls etc.

Both of these aren't what she's after though? Clannad's first series is about school-life and Zero no Tsukaima is (albeit good) fantasy, romance featuring a tsundere lol.

After reading that through I'm actually shocked Future Diary wasn't in the list of her favorites.

She's never seen it, I pulled up a synop for her and she got interested when I told her the MC becomes a
psycho killer terrorist after the death of his parents. Lol. I told her its basically the hunger games, but more
eventful.

But you never know if she can start to like it. What happened if she saw a shitty School Life anime?

Wellllll
Mirai Nikki has a pretty psychotic bitch in it...
I need a little bit of time to think about this... Sounds like she might not mind Higashi no Eden, Kaze no Stigma(she might not like this), she might not mind Maoyuu Maou Yuusha or Sekirei(a little bit hentai/weird).
I can't really think of too many psychotic characters in animes atm, so I'm kinda just naming actions that don't have to do with school life.

Well Clannad's a great one but if She's literally looking for the opposite. Instead of forcing it down her throat (who knows, she may have tried watching loads but didn't like it), lets just offer the good thriller shit.
Deadman Wonderland is another great one Viral, again short though. Feel thats more like a fucked up Hunger Games - there's a prison where they offer freedom if you compete in their 'death games'. Great watch.

She has seen DMW. She liked it, but at the same time, didn't. She hardly finished it.

Is it that she specifically likes Psychotic leads, or that she likes strong female leads?
If the latter, then you might check out Ghost in the Shell (A bit fan-servicy I guess, but not too much, I seem to recall only a couple scenes here and there) as well as Psycho-Pass. -Maybe- Ga-Rei Zero? It's different. The first two episodes really suck you in, so maybe give it a shot.

Oh, you can also check out Steins Gate. It's pretty awesome.

Yeah that's what I was going to recommend, only like 22 episodes great psychological anime.

Well please notify her of Mirai Nikki: The future diary. I'm suprised she has not seen this!
