The weirdest and cringe anime.

animes set in different parts of the planet

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.

shows that aren't parodies yet still can't really exist in the realm of being taken seriously due to whatever tonal/plot elements that make you go "fkng what???? lmao"

usually this makes them either really funny or really good. or both. or sometimes neither. always confused to some extent tho.

series that seem innocuous enough but become pretty wack by the end

Looking for some of the funniest trashy and bad anime? Are you constantly digging up bad anime just to end up being bored by how bad it is, rather than laugh at how ironically fun it is? You've come to the right place!

I've only put in anime that made me ironically laugh while I watched it. There's anime such as Ex-Arm that were funny at first, but they also became a pain to watch as the series progresses. I still included it as the first few episodes are unintentionally hilarious. The list is organized from highest to lowest MAL average just to show how it gradually gets worse in quality.

Also, please DM me suggestions to add to this list too, if you have some! Tsui no Sora is excluded for being an h-anime, but it meets the criteria elsewise.

I've watched several anime, such as Inferno Cop, Ghost Stories and gdgd fairies, that miss the cut and require their own stack. Check the URL below for it!

This Interest Stack is directly inspired by Digibro's "250 Anime Recommendations". Everything listed here is directly taken from the original video.
------
The reason to create this stack was to not make anyone sit through a 6-Hour long video.
------
This is the continuation of Part 4 of the 250 Anime recommendations list (Separated in parts because of MAL's 50 entries per list limit).
------
In the words of Digibro herself: "I'm also going to state how much i recommend these show's, So the minimum will be a light recommendation meaning something that i dont necessarily think is amazing but its worth checking out if you're bored, Not all of these are gonna be like 10/10 classics. Some of these are gonna be like OK shows that are just worth checking out. Maybe you'll like it more than i did."
------
* = Light recommendation
** = Medium recommendation
*** = Strong recommendation
**** = MUST-WATCH

------
Here are how these anime are categorized (In Order)

ARTHOUSE: Le Portrait de Petit Cossette - Furiko

CLASSIC FILMS (ALL MUST-WATCH): Akira - Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust

QUICK ACTION FIX: .hack//QUANTUM - Sukeban Deka (2 extra entries that couldnt be fit into the Stack: Venus Wars - Tenamonya Voyagers)
