(my profile has pretty much what I have watched so far... Almost everything in there)
I dont like shoujo, pls no shoujo (´・з・)


Since you asked for no shoujo, I made sure to filter out any series that dwell on emotion and romance too much and have more action and drama. Overall, your anime list looks great and I actually had a few series that would fit well for you, so I decided to go with the shortest of these series.

Baccano!

I'd appreciate a recommendation. 😘


You didn't have any specifications so I decided to choose something based on your overall anime list. By the looks of it your prefer shoujo and nostalgic anime. To be honest, there were several series I could have given as a recommendation but, I decided to go with this one because its relatively short and appeals towards comedy (which, in my opinion, are hard to sift through).

I'd like a reccomendation.


You didn't have a specification so I went based on the overall of your list. Just by the looks of it, you aren't the type to be fully satisfied by something that's overall too "light" and you have a somewhat mature taste. Therefore, I decided to go with something that has dark overtones and is somewhat thought provoking. As a preface to this recommendation, this series starts slow. It takes a few to grab the interest of the viewer however, it's a welly executed dark themed fantasy/action series that (I believe) is worth a shot.

I'd like an recommendation of an anime with a fast story development, not shoujo, funny or silly... Am I too picky? lol



I have so many options for you! Since you don't want anything silly I choose a series with very dark themes, however there is some comedic relief but it doesn't detract from the series overall tone.

OI GIMMIE SUMTHIN' GUD!
I accept almost anything, but I would avoid the horror or the romance genre. Story driven anime would be perfect. My list contains everything I've watched so far.

You wanted a story driven plot with no horror or romance. So I made sure to avoid series with an overtly dark tone and distracting romance. I still had a lot of options for you so I looked over your profile and it seems like you favor dark tone and comedy and action. I'm not going to pretend as if I found a perfect mash-up with those however here is my recommendation:

Arslan Senki

Unfortunately, there are no loli characters (if I remember correctly) however its story driven with a dark tone.

Thanks, I have limited time available, so because this is a 25 episode show it would take around 2 weeks to finish it, but seems interesting. It isn't problem if there are no loli characters, especially if the cast are great. I didn't had the courage to ask for a slice of life show (which is maybe my favourite genre besides sci-fi), because it is a double edged sword in my opinion, there are good and very bad ones and I want to compete this challenge.

Edit: I checked it and there is no sub in my local language, only in english. That means I have to translate some of the words in the sub, but I will try to complete the anime in 2 weeks.

What is your local language? I'll check for that if you sign up again.

Don't be afraid to ask for something difficult, I have the most fun with these types of challenges!

Also if it's too difficult you can request to switch after watching about 5 episodes (since you aren't doing hardcore mode).

Hi! Thanks for signing up!

You don't have any specifications... so I decided to go off your list!
I saw that you favored fast action shows, cutesy ones, cutesy characters, and that you are well versed in many genres. Therefore the series I picked for you is the shortest of the recommendations I had lined up for you and seems to fit these categories well.

My recommendation for you is a little more generic than I normally like to do but I think it's a worthwhile watch!

Madoka!
