All these anime's include very shippable characters who mostly have no other person in the anime you could possibly ship them with. This is a marketing ploy because this makes anime/ships very popular as well as being apart of the lgbtqia+ community is not openly embraced by any Asian media. A lot of these anime's has novels, manga chps, side manga, official art, and drama cds that are very suggestive or downright very gay. They have all have very suggestive scenes in the animes as well including op, ed, end credits that are very fruity.

disclaimer: Includes anime with non-canon couples, non canon lgbt but all animes are gay coded in a way that queer people recognize. Also most have anime with canon lgbtqia+ characters

Animax was the Latin American affiliate of Sony Entertainment Television's youth channel.

Animax's headquarters are located in the Minato district of Tokyo, where it began broadcasting on June 1, 1998. The signal for Latin America was launched on July 31, 2005, replacing the avant-garde channel Locomotion. Its offices were located in Caracas, Venezuela, where those of its sister channels Sony Entertainment Television and AXN, belonging to Sony Pictures Television International, are also located.

Like the other subsidiaries around the world where it is available, it broadcast anime series, and since May 2008 it began broadcasting live-action series and movies distributed by Sony Pictures.

On May 3, 2010, the channel was renewed with a new logo and graphics. From May 1, 2011 it became the currently defunct Sony Spin, disappearing as a television channel.

Animes that first appeared on Weekly Shonen Magazine as manga and had an adaptation for TV.

Animax Latin America was the affiliate for that region of the youth channel of Sony Entertainment Television. The signal for Latin America was launched on July 31, 2005, replacing the adult animation channel Locomotion. Like the other subsidiaries around the world where it is available, it broadcast anime series, and since May 2008 it began with the broadcast of live action series and movies distributed by Sony Pictures.

On May 3, 2010, the channel is renewed by premiering a new logo and graphics. Since May 1, 2011, it was renamed Sony Spin, disappearing as a television channel.

Personally, a channel that brings back beautiful memories of my childhood and that, several series broadcast by Animax, give me a nostalgic feeling for an anime that currently no longer exists.

Many are familiar with Akemi Takada's '80s-defining character designs for the adaptations of Rumiko Takahashi's manga (whom I have also covered in an interest stack dedicated to her), but there is another person that is credited for translating Takahashi's characters within the wider anime (and promotional material) context. Atsuko Nakajima is a prominent animator, animation director, and character designer whose name emerged during Studio DEEN's prime years in the late '80s up until the early '00s, serving one or two of the roles above across its multitude of productions.

There is an interesting progression in Nakajima's design output. While she already had a certain tendency for hair complexity in her designs (see the nuances of Ranma 1/2; it stands out to me how there's a lot more to Kasumi's hair than how it looks), the advent of the 2000s and the rise of digital animation saw her trying out more extravagant and detailed appearances. Sharp faces complement the hair which brings forth a stronger emphasis on individual hair strands which have a notable sheen, such as her work in Taiho Shichau Zo and her animation direction work on Rurouni Kenshin.

As the title suggests, though, the standout element of Nakajima's character designs are the detail and expressiveness of her eyes. Evolving past the Takada-and-Takahashi-fused characters of Ranma 1/2, Nakajima maintained the glass-like look of her characters' eyes, which can be seen even with characters of a serious nature (i.e. having slanted or thin eyes like in Hakuoki). There's a doll-like element to her design philosophy that reflects or at least bears resemblance to the flashy and hyper-stylized bishounen and bishoujo aesthetic of shoujo manga.

Frankly, finding similarities in Nakajima's style is a bit harder to pin down, since she seems to be more flexible with adapting to the original manga artist's style. If there's a way to encompass her overall style, it would be the aforementioned doll-like attributes of her characters, the sharp lines that accentuate their presence in the frames, and a subtle luster that gives off the impression of an aura amplifying their importance.

ADV Films, the former incarnation of Sentai Filmworks, produced most of their English dubs in Houston, Texas. However, from the late 1990s until 2005, ADV also employed a secondary studio in Austin, Texas, known as Monster Island.

Monster Island could be considered ADV's "2nd-string" studio, as many (though not all) shows they dubbed were lesser-known and perhaps lesser quality. Shipping them to MI may have been a cost-cutting move, as many of the dubs are marred by fast-and-loose scriptwriting, questionable name pronunciations, and a general sense of roughness and inexperience.
Still, a lot of them had their own sort of charm, and some are well-regarded. You can find some comments about the dubs from me on some individual entries. Some may be approaching "lost media" status, or are not commonly available online by legal or illegal means.

So if you've encountered an ADV dub from the early 2000s and wondered why the cast was full of names you hadn't heard of, or why it felt different from the average ADV dub, chances are it was a Monster Island show.

*Note: some related/sequel titles dubbed by MI are noted only in the comments, in order to stay under the 50-item limit.

Here are some works that explores concepts/themes that may have some ground on the queer theory narratives like identity, power, desire, sex, gender, etc. They’re mixed with other societal problematics such as colonialism, politics, race, class, dispositives of control, institutionalization, etc. Thus they’re intersectional-queer animes.

I try showing stories that have some queer stuff on them but also go beyond the typical romance drama, so no BL o yuri or wathev, i try to evade basic Queerbaity-ones from the fujoshi’s realm like Free! or SK8.

P. S I: These works are date from the 2000’s onwards. I have another one for the ones below the 2000´s, and one for the very best, check them!
P. S II: Some series here have sequels, prequels, movies or spin-offs. It´s up to you to search, yass kween slay.

Buzz was a Spanish subscription television channel produced by AMC Networks International Iberia. Its programming focused on horror content, both in current series and movies.

Despite not being Spanish, I have managed to appreciate the content that this channel transmitted along with several of its dubbings into Castilian Spanish, which, from my point of view, are mostly worth it.

Animax was a Spanish subscription television channel of Japanese origin, distributed by Sony Pictures Entertainment under the international Animax brand. It was launched as a channel on April 12, 2008.

On December 4, 2013, it was confirmed that the channel definitively ceased its broadcasts on December 31, 2013, due to its abandonment in recent months.

Animax Spain broadcast popular series and movies and, in some cases, I dare say that it had better programming than the Latin American version.

When the anime follows the path of the manga but takes a few detours along the way or decides to change the details and context.
