Post anime you think are alright but people pretend are extremely profound just to make their taste seem more sophisticated than it actually is

If its an anime that meets that description it would probably be on /a/ so often that making a thinly veiled recc thread for them would be pointless. Take the dick out of your ass.
GitS and Patlabor movie2 (so basically exposition heavy Oshii movies), Texhnolyze, Angels Egg and most of all, this isnt even a competition, the original Yamato which is just a straight up worse version of 2199.

Announcing reports is against the rule.

Cowboy Bebop

Basically everything from Leiji Matsumoto.

Ping Pong
Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu

Whether or not something is profound doesn't mean it good or bad, you insecure fagtron.
Utena is notable because of it's outstanding direction and how it uses the common animu tropes in an unusual (at the time) manner.

Nothing profound about these.

>original Yamato
Yamato is notable because it was basically the first TV anime superproduction, with an incredible amount of work put into it.

Didn't we have this exactly same thread yesterday? Also it's unthinkable that some people might have just liked any "alright" series and not use it to bump their ego.

>Yamato is notable
That was not the point I tried to make. It isnt about the impact on the medium it had (since thats obviously gigantic compared to 2199), its about the people who pretend that its any more but a decent show. Acknowledging influence, and acknowledging quality are two completely different things. And I am fairly sure that people who claim to love the original version (especially over 2199) perfectly fit what the OP was looking for

Utena? More like Slutena
>>161757151
It's been a few years but i still think utena is DEEP as fuck, but then again i can't stand lainfags, so maybe it's just that one of the classics will click with you in that way. Hope you find yours anon
