In the bustling world of Reddit , known to be a
hotbed of passionate debates and detailed discussions, a topic has emerged that
has caught the attention of numerous anime fans: “ What are the animes
that are not talked about much, but that Do you think they should be better
known? “. This question has triggered an avalanche of answers,
revealing hidden gems and forgotten treasures that many consider worthy of
greater recognition.
The discussion has revealed that,
despite the great popularity of some mainstream anime, there are many series
that do not receive the attention they deserve. Forum
members have shared their opinions on various titles that, despite their
quality and originality, remain in the shadows. This phenomenon is not uncommon
in an industry as vast and prolific as anime, where each season brings with it
an avalanche of new productions.
The debate on Reddit has highlighted the importance
of recommendations within the anime community. Fans often discover new
series through word of mouth and discussions on forums and social media. These
types of interactions allow lesser-known titles to reach a broader audience,
highlighting the influence of personal opinions and shared experiences.
One of the most valuable aspects of
these types of debates is the diversity of opinions and appreciation for a wide
range of styles and narratives. Participants have
shown a wide variety of tastes and preferences, from complex science fiction
stories to emotional dramas and light comedies. This exchange of ideas enriches
the community and allows more people to discover and appreciate the diversity
of the anime world.
- « I've
always been surprised by how unknown SSSS.Gridman/SSSS.Dynazenon/Gridman
Universe are in the West. Sure, it's a nostalgic series for Japanese audiences
(it's reminiscent of other mecha series and the original tokusatsu that
many Japanese viewers grew up with), but the disparity between Japanese
and Western reception is unfathomable. In Japan, Gridman has sold out
theaters and continues to receive tons and tons of merchandise even years
after it aired. Even if you lack the cultural context, the anime was made
by Trigger, of all studios. So a lot of his sakuga talent is on board.
Directed by Akira Amemiya. Soundtrack by Shiro Sagisu »

Shoujo, I liked the plot that revolved around the actors and their
sacrifices to become better than anyone else. Even when it was broadcast,
it wasn't talked about much, but it deserves a lot of appreciation for
what it tries to achieve .
- " Kamisama
Kiss, is another pretty good anime with a supernatural concept with a
great mix of romance between the protagonists ."
- « Kono
Bijutsu-bu ni wa Mondai ga Aru!, this show is a great rom-com anime but
leaning more towards comedy. The characters are interesting and the female
lead is adorable to watch .
- « Sleepy
Princess in the Demon's Castle. My absolute favorite, but no one talks
about him ».
- « Shadows
House. This series is literally a masterpiece, story, characters,
character designs, soundtracks, world building, everything is incredible
and unique . »
- « Isekai
Ojisan. very underrated, and I think it didn't get much attention simply
because the study kept getting delayed and delayed almost every two weeks.
It was a great trip and a lot of fun with the fourth wall breaking and
stuff. Not only that, but it featured a protagonist who was around 40
years old .'
- " Aho
Girl, it's extremely fun ."
- « Drifters.
Blame it on the incredible slowness with which the manga is published. A
second season has been promised years ago, but when nothing comes out it's
hard to talk about anything. Without a doubt it is a great series .
- « Princess
Tutu. "She has a cult following, but she deserves the same
recognition as Madoka, in my opinion ."
- « Vanitas
no Karte was great, I also wonder why it is so unpopular ».
- « Genius
Prince (restoring the kingdom, I can't remember the full name). There was
another one like this too that I can't remember the name, these 2 were
really good and the genre is great ."
- « The
Genius Prince's Guide to Raising a Nation Out of Debt was very good. I
look forward to another season .
- « I
also used to read the How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom manga, but I
stopped when it became a harem. "Sometimes it's fine, but here it
seemed like the guy married or got engaged to all the women around him, so
he seemed forced just for the fanservice ."
- « I
would say that Baccano, it's a little sad to see it overlooked, especially
since it has one of the best dubs of all time, if not the best, as well as
a Pulp Fiction style of narration that is almost never seen in the anime ".
- « Saihate
no Paladin, come on, it's a love letter to The Lord of the Rings! The guy
is a textbook example of a D&D paladin and lives by the motto of
"all problems can be solved with money, prayer, or violence."
And instead of getting an Isekai harem, the guy collects brothers left and
right! The manga is amazing, but unfortunately the anime came up short on
budget. If it had received the Mushoku Tensei treatment, we would have had
a classic fantasy masterpiece .

Kamuy. Although it could be my thing, because I am obsessed with the
history of 1890-1920 ».
- « Wave,
Listen To Me! – The love of the radio represented by a woman with the
worst luck with boys and the worst habit with alcohol, who ends up on the
radio because she simply cannot shut up .
- « Heaven's
Design Team – Have you ever wondered why Animals are the way they are, …and
other animals don't exist? What kind of animal is born if God wants a bird
that does not lay eggs? is it really a bird? ».
- « Uramichi
Oniisan – What happens when a 31-year-old former professional gymnast,
exhausted and traumatized, abandons his dream and ends up working as a
co-host of a… children's program? A few years later, how does he maintain
the optimistic image of himself in front of the children and avoid saying
things that could shatter their hopes for the future? ».
- « Welcome
to Demon School, Iruma-kun! – Apparently it's popular enough in Japan to
have ongoing merch, tons of spinoffs, and it's ongoing... but outside of
the subreddits I don't see anyone ever talking about it .
- « For
me, World Trigger has everything the shonen genre needs to stop being
mediocre: intelligent and well-developed characters, a detailed setting
with a clear explanation of everything, no fanservice or harem, fights
that are based on strategic thinking and/or skill rather than the power of
friendship. Admittedly, the start is slow and Toei did a mediocre job with
the first season, but I still prefer it to most battle shonen. If people
demanded the same level from other series, we would benefit .
- « I
just watched the first 13 episodes of Hyouge Mono in one sitting. It's that
attractive. It is an anime about tea ceremonies and political intrigues
around the end of the Japanese Sengoku period. If you like war generals
who lose their minds over tea games, this is your anime .
- « Kobato.
Everyone I've mentioned it to hasn't even heard of it. It has never been
recommended anywhere. Which is baffling, because the series is really
good. A complete story in 24 episodes. It's a pretty funny and
heartwarming series about a socially inept girl who feels her way through
social interactions in order to fulfill her "wish." There are
some twists and turns as well as some fantasy elements mixed in. If you
liked Clannad, I recommend it ."
- « D.
Gray-man. He is a grimdark shounen, and I love him. The characters are
cold, no one shouts "I'm going to be the pirate wizard, believe
it!" Unfortunately, the author has severe arthritis and cannot work
on the manga more than one chapter every 3 months or so .
- « Wolf's
Rain – It's older and has a vague/melancholic ending, so it makes sense
that it's not talked about as much as other classic series. That said, it
deserves to be remembered as a classic. The story, the characters, the
music, etc. They are great and really exciting . »
- « Girl's
Last Tour – I'm going to chalk this up to the anime not adapting the
entire story. It's 2/3 of the way through, and I truly believe that if it
included the end of the manga, it would be more loved and discussed. It
may not have been very popular, but at least it would have the same
prestige as Made in Abyss. The ending is really beautiful and perfect for
the themes of the story, which makes it unique .
- «Un
montón de títulos de anime dirigidos principalmente a la demografía
femenina en general. Como por ejemplo: Idolish7, Sacrificial Princess and
the King of Beasts, Children of the Whales, The Yuzuki Family’s Four Sons,
The Story of Saiunkoku, Sugar Apple Fairy Tale, Magic Knight Rayearth,
Mermaid Melody, Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne, Banana Fish, Aishiteruze Baby, The
World is Still Beautiful, Kuragehime, A Sign of Affection, 7th Time Loop,
Sakamichi no Apollon, Hakkenden, Free, My New Boss is Goofy, Akagami no
Shirayuki-hime, etc».
- « I
also pointed that out about Beastars and people here just said it was
crazy and that it's talked about all the time, which it's not. My pick for
not enough hype would be Healer Girl and World Dai Star .
