What's your favorite "cute girls doing cute things" anime?
nnb
Not K-On!
wrong board homo >>>/wsr/
>>161141419
I don't know but Anne Happy was better than K-On.
>>161141419
Toss up between K-on and Azumanga Daioh. Yuru Yuri is a close runner up, and could have won if season 3 wasn't horribly animated, boring and just plain disturbing with all the loli booty.
>>161141419
Yuri on Ice
Sister Princess Repure
I'm only 2 episodes in but Love Live is pretty good so far. This show is filled to the brim with waifus
>>161141437
Fpbp
Would you rather have K-on!!! be a prequel about Sawako, or a sequel with the Wakaba girls that has exactly zero appearances from the original main four?
>>161141419
K-on is objectively the best one so of course he takes my favorite
>>161142645
Sequel, please
Shakunetsu is the best. Haifuri is great too.
>>161142645
Sequel. I want to see Mugi's white slave animated.
>>161142935
>haifuri
Season 2 when?
>>161142645
>Sawako
I'd honestly erase her presence from K-ON if I could.
>>161143102
The Harekaze will definitely sail again.
the best one of course
>>161143437
Your aspect ratio is off.
Azumanga Daioh
not K-on or Yuru Yuri
K-On is the favorite of people who want to be smug with their epic anime reaction faces
and Yuru becomes a shitpost festival
What's with all the rec threads lately?
>>161143529
better?
"Cute girls do cute video game industry things!" For me
Can't say a favorite, but sora no woto was the last one I binged. Currently watching High School Fleet.
I need to download more CGDCT shows, but I don't know where to start.
>>161143863
>SnW
>CGDCT
Not really. It has cute girls on it, but I'd hardly put on the same genre or style as something like NNB or K-ON.

I only watched it for the cute girls though.

>>161143754
Thank you.
>>161142618
Natsumi is a healthy girl.
>>161141419
K-On for sure, I haven't seen anything that comes close. I think the only "major" one I haven't seen yet would be Hidamari Sketch but I'm not super interested in it

>>161142645
>Wakaba girls
>Literal K-on clones doing the same things that the original did.
No thank you.
>Sawako walking away from her friends and turning into a normalfag just to chase after a guy that doesn't even like her.
That sounds way too depressing.
>>161143581
I don't know about reaction images. All I know is that I had a good time watching K-on and I miss the show. Azumanga is a very good show though, it made me laugh many times and the cast is very likeable/memorable.
>Yuru Yuri
Is still on my backlog and I know nothing about the threads but I don't think is fair to judge a show over its fanbase.
>>161142645

I don't think they were clones, but I do think that they were incredibly boring.
>>161142216
I literally don't know how someone could come to this conclusion.
>>161142502
>waifus
Also no, Love Live is boring and the characters barely move past their archetypes.
>>161148964
>fucking Umaru above GJ-bu and Yama no Susume
Have you considered suicide?
Yuyushiki
>>161149055
Umaru got a second season because it is an excellent anime.
>>161149111
Yama no Susume's getting a third season if we're playing that game. But it's repetitive and lazy compared to better anime in the genre.
Ichigo Mashimaro. They invented the phrase.
>>161149185
Do not disrespect the Yamas!
>>161149005
Yea they are not exactly clones but the blonde girl is shy like Mio but with a Mugi like appearance.
Azusa's group was kind boring already ( an apathetic girl and a siscon) and the new girls didn't make it any better.
>>161143863
Sora no Woto is Haibane Renmei done right.
>>161149111
>Umaru got a second season because it is an excellent anime.
Anon, that is not how it works. Technically speaking, getting a second season means that the first one failed, at least to a certain extend.
>>161149256
>implying Haibane Renmei was done wrong
>>161144087
Same here. The time travel episode is the peak of CGDCT.
>>161149225
I'm sorry, I meant that Umaru is repetitive and lazy. I love Yama no Susume.
>>161149269
...what?
>>161142216
I love Anne Happy however it's still not better or even on par with K-On. Flying Witch is closer to K-On than Anne Happy. I haven't found anything up to the K-On standard yet however I haven't watched Azumanga Daioh yet either which I've heard many good things about.
>>161149297
Oh OK. Your forgiven.
>>161149395
His forgiven what?
>>161149311
Anime are advertisement. The better the anime does, the less need there is for a second season. If the source material sells and you are sure that your market cant be extended any further then there is literally no reason to give an anime another season since it would only generate costs but no further income. So if an anime gets a second season later on it basically means that source material sales dropped and that the need for further advertisement has arisen. If the first season had done its job then that would not be necessary. Doesnt matter if the show sells or how good it is since it ONLY EXISTS to sell books.Nothing gets another season to make the fanbase happy.
>>161148964
>Himouto! Umaru-chan above anything

Ah, you're trolling, nice troll dude.
Hidamari.
>>161149256
I liked Sora no Woto but the show expended too much time doing cute things and too little time exploring the post war world. So is it doesn't surprises me that some people say is just a show about cute girls.
I mean there was an entire episode about Kanata not being able to use the toilet while wearing a cute dress.
>>161149478
>Dragon Ball Z
>Ah, you're trolling, nice troll dude.
>>161144087
How? I watched first 3 episode and it was a snorfest full of unneccessary exposition, akward dialog and jokes that fall flat 99% of the time.

>>161142502
it's probably the most boring fucking anime ever. the plot barely advances at all in the entire first season. it 's just pure distilled moeshit.

Ping pong isnt cute
>>161149311
basically this >>161149455 I wouldn't say "nothing" gets a second season, but certain studios, such as Deen, mostly exist to create source material advertisement. This is why, for example, even though Konosuba was such a hit both in the domestic market and here in the West, launching the LN sales to the top 1/2 spots on the charts, its likely not getting a third season just because of the fact that its LN is selling so well.
>>161149637
I need more!
>>161150557
I have to disagree here for multiple reasons. Reason number 1 is that KonoSuba season 3 is basically guaranteed at this point. Reason number 2 is that the LNs sales dropped hard and, what a surprise, it seems that the new anime project was announced because of that.
>>161150306
Neither is eating cake and playing instruments. Adding cute girls to a thing is what makes the thing cute. Ping pong is cute if cute girls are being cute while playing it.
>>161150616
>dropped hard
It is always on one of the top spots, This week its number 3. Not really a "hard drop"
>new animated project
No word of it being season 3. Could be anything from an Ova to recap movies. Just a month or so prior the writer said there were no season 3 plans at the time, so unless they confirm that has changed, this is the information we are going off of.

Yeah I like it more when it was just Aoba advancing through her career and seeing what the professional world has to offer. The overall arc of progressing through the development of the first game she has been a part of was satisfying, too. Now the show just feels quite hollow by comparison and I don't find myself rooting for any of the characters.
>>161141419
Anything with Asumin goes straight to the top.
>>161141419
>java tattoo
K-On and Hidamari Sketch are the 2 best anime ever.
So probably those
>>161149256
I wish this meme died. Baiting people into watching mediocrity after experiencing something legitimately good is pure evil.
Then again, most people think Haibane only deals with "depression", so the simplistic comparison also stems from those people's inability to see past their own nose.
Seriously though, apart from the inferior production values, Haibane Renmei is leagues above, don't get baited.
>>161148964
yuyushiki is utter shit
Joshiraku. Intelligent, mature anime for similar people.
>>161153115

>>161149372
I'm like four hours late but whatever. Azumanga Daioh was great, but the manga has held up way more than the anime has. I still love the anime, but it's sixteen years old now and made on a budget to begin with, and it shows it in a lot of ways.

>>161141437
As good as other cgdct shows are this is the only correct answer
>>161144087
Mah nigga
>>161149256
This is accurate.
>>161149531
>toilet episode
I disagree that the show is more about girls doing cute things because literally every episode of the show gives some background, information and more insight on the world. The episodes also aren't just episodic shit made to make you feel fluffy inside, all of them are also used to explore the characters and develop them.
Haibane Renmei actually does the same thing, it's full of SoL episodes. Difference being that at least the SoL stuff is fun on SnW
>>161152986
How is Haibane Renmei above? I challenge you to give a non meme answer.
>>161154454
why is this show which is about cute girls doign cute things got my blood pumping with tank drifts and all?
>>161152986
I always thought that Haibane Renmei was about redemption and accepting yourself/your past. Why people say it's about depression?
Nonnon biyori and Hidamari.
>>161152986
> Baiting people into watching mediocrity after experiencing something legitimately good is pure evil.
I watched Haibane Renmei years before Sora No Woto and honestly think that the former is a 7/10 while the latter is a 9/10
>>161141419
does haruhi count?
>>161154747
Are you retarded?
>>161154763
it's mostly cute girls

Don't really know anymore. In the beginning I loved this kind of anime, that was until last year. Nowadays nothing pleases me anymore, I simply have to force myself to watch through it and keep hoping it ends.
Man, I just wish I could enjoy anime again.
>>161154890
You probably got burned out for watching too much stuff quickly. Try to only watch anime once in a while and choose stuff that's appealing to you and I'll doubt you will have this problem.
You can read manga in the meantime.
>>161141419

>>161154890
Chronic depression sure must suck.
Would you consider something like Akage no Anne or Heidi as sort of precursors to contemporary CGDCT?

Shit it's hard to make a top10.
Minami-ke, Nichijou and Azumanga Daioh are comedy first not SoL but they're some of the best.
Yuru Yuri and NNB holds a special place in my heart. Can't wait for a third season and I hope its a sequel not a repeat

That's honestly kind of tough. My gut reaction would initially be of course no, those were examples of wholesome family shows. But as a fan of the genre, I consider CGDCT shows to also be wholesome, and usually fine for the whole family (K-ON on the Disney Channel and all that).
But more importantly, and on a somewhat tangential note, it's important to remember that Heidi and Anne (as well as Little Women and Twins of St. Clare's anime, and other shows to come out of that block) are all of course based on Western literature. So then, is the true precursor to the CGDCT genre Canadian, American, and British nonfiction?
>>161142216
Thank god I am no the only one.
>>161155188
Hey aria and shirobako girls are cute even though they don't really do cute things. I guess it's more of a SoL ranking in general.
>>161141419

>So then, is the true precursor to the CGDCT genre Canadian, American, and British nonfiction?

No.
But considering that CGDCT is a subgenre to Slice of Life which is obviously a lot older than anime, I'd say that western literature did play a crucial part in the pre-history of CGDCT.
>>161155188
Yeah, that anon really has some weird categorization.
I mean, CGDCT can both be used as a general descriptor of the cast or to describe SOL shows,
and that anon seems to use it as the more general term
but then excludes shows because they are 'comedy first'

Sorry man, brain fart.
Meant fiction, of course.
All my favorite cgdct got no S2, minimal porn, no big western followings, no good figures. I understand clearly what it means to have shit taste. Kill me.
>>161156285
Most of those are good things though?
>>161154384
The difference being is that the SoL episodes in Haibane are full of foreshadowing, are used to establish personalities and the symbolism and convey the slightly eerie and melancholic atmosphere that is essential to understanding the show fully. As well as the blissful ignorance that will be questioned in the 2nd half while as king questions that will be internalized and filtered through the two MCs flawed personalities. Questions that won't be literally answered since Haibane is a show that forfeits third-party spoonfeeding for a more abstract and emotive approach.
Then again, Haibane's presentation is very low key for a good reason. It won't be as "entertaining" as a piss episode and cookie-cutter character interactions, but it will greatly help convey the much needed eerie and melancholic atmosphere.
>>161154623
Yeah, sure buddy. Throwing random numbers around won't amount to anything cohesive, just like the show you gave a "9/10" to. Haibane Renmei is a 10 and Sora no Woto a 6 at the very most. See how easy that is?
>>161154413
Right focus for a 13 episodes series (the two MCs), altruism exploration, deals with the very concepts of grief and guilt, offers a spiritual journey towards accepting and finding peace in the unknowable. Also deals with depression and suicide. Conveys that a selfish desire is inherently detrimental and contradictory to fulfilling a virtuous life. All this internalized and organically conveyed thanks to its examplar use of abstract symbolism, good thematically sound relationship and great craft from ABe's part.
Pretty decent for a 1 cour show if you ask me.
>>161156285
apparently to have shit taste means liking something that has a certain following so you are good.
