Video Girl Ai

impressionistic emotional pieces that express a powerful melancholy

A Magical Girlfriend, exotic girlfriend, supernatural lover, monster girlfriend, or nonhuman woman, is a female (or male, in rarer cases) stock character often associated with romantic comedy anime and manga series, and is sometimes considered a genre of its own, or as the leading lady of the "fantastic romance" genre, which combines the fantasy and romance genres.

Magical girlfriends can be one or many in a single series (always attached to the protagonists). Because of the tendency for rivals to appear even when there is a 'spoken for' lead character and because of the unnatural gender balance among the cast, magical girlfriend comedies are often conflated with harem comedies. A good example of this conflation is 'Oh My Goddess!' which is often confused with one of the prototypical 'harem' titles", despite the short-lived nature of most of the romantic rivalries in the series.

Magical girlfriends initially derived from the US television series Bewitched, which was dubbed for the Japanese market. Sally the Witch was the first anime series inspired by Bewitched, leading to the popularity of magical girls in Japanese anime.

The romance as a genre in it's typical sense, is a hit or miss for most of us, and this is understandable. Each of us has different outlook on life, our experience had shaped our personalities by particular ways and the way we comprehend the fragile and gentle feelings of affection within ourselves is something very personal.

But then again some stories, despite not having entirely romantic focus, can portray relationships in dynamic sense and with appropriate narrative depth. Series like these rarely gets the spotlight for this reason and are oftenly skipped by people who're usually interested solely in the romance aspect of the plots, which is one of the reasons this collection was made - as a showcase of various well written and emotionally expressive bonds of love.

The mentioned works are with broad range of genres, themes and moods, but in each of them one can find a well handled hint of, if not well explored, romance. As well as that, some romances that are breaking the mold of the usual adaptations are included, since they're rarely well explored within the medium and deserve our attention.

Welcome to my Obscurity series, which I hope will help you delve deeper into the depths of anime, particularly the classics.

The criteria here is simple: Anime released in 2001 or earlier, with under 35,000 MAL Members, and which I've rated a 7 or higher.

I'm also not including anything that I've already included on my Good Stuff list: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/9517

It is perhaps worth noting that I rate things entirely on gut feeling. It's just, "I like that, that was good, it gets a 7.", that's the whole process. I can also find enjoyment in just about anything and there's very little that bothers me.

lo que dice el título

Anime from the list of cyberpunk animation and comics compiled by fan Andrew Stoker in the early 2000s.

Underrated Anime Movies or OVA or Short Films or Short Animated Videos (could be a really great music video).
I have another Interest Stack for Underrated TV series, check 'em out: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/29279

Another Animated Music Video that I cannot include in the list is "Living in a world without magic" by Euluca Lab (an indie studio on YT). I found its page on MAL but somehow I can't add to either my watch list or this stack, kinda suck.

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.

long live energonchi

A very basic, yet common trope in anime. A normal guy, typically down on his luck finally meets the perfect girl! She just shows up in his life. But she's not from earth. She's an alien or is some kind of other otherworldly being.

Vibes. Absolute vibes.

I am attempting to curate the definitive catalog of THE most 𝓐𝓔𝓢𝓣𝓗𝓔𝓣𝓘𝓒 anime, found exclusively between the 80s and 90s!

Many millennials, Gen Z, or younger experience a 'longing' (often known as "anemoia") for the pre-internet world, when VHS tapes enveloped film in a comforting saturation, when stereos emitted synthpop, and when the warm sun caused the rippling seas to glisten just that much more.

This Interest Stack is curated to support members in finding entries which share highly specific or niche interests: that is: 80s-90s anime that boast a retro "aesthetic" prowess: an art style or color palette that evoke "vibes", "atmosphere", "ambiance", or "nostalgia".

These anime are brimming with screenshotable frames and GIF-worthy animations to suit any YouTube lo-fi mixtape, playlist of beats to study to, Pinterest feeds, or cater to anyone's longing for an ethereal bygone era.

“Looking at still images from the blu-ray of this anime makes me want to cry. People throw around the word ‘aesthetic’—they throw is around a LOT—especially when talking about old anime on VHS; but, I have never seen Shounan Bakusouzoku talked about.” — Kenny Lauderdale

Suggestions welcomed!

1990s, 1990's, 90s, 90's

1980s, 1980's, 80s, 80's

P.S. I really tried not to use the word "vaporwave". But yeah. That's pretty much what this stack is.
