Shingeki is great, but it is gory at times.

Also, I'm going to write a couple of reviews once MyAnimeList is back up (they're currently being hacked or DDOSed or something -.-; ).

It is extremely tense and gory, and I have to say it's probably one of the most traumatising shows I've watched - it has absolutely no problem with viciously killing off main characters/innocents.

It is however one of the best shows I have seen in a really long time. Really brilliant and intelligent. I'd say to perhaps watch the first episode and if you're comfortable with the level of things in that you'll probably be fine with whatever other gore occurs in later episodes.

Ohhh I didn't realise what was going on! When I was writing those reviews I meant to look there to help me think of things I was maybe forgetting, but it wasn't working. Oh well, hopefully it'll be back up soon...

Looks like myanimelist is back! I might manage to think of a few more recommendations now. By the way, what do people think of allowing non-anime in the "for fans of" section? That might be more useful for unusual anime, and also for people who are really new to anime.

Also, I added saviour to "recommended by" for Darker than Black, as he had also mentioned it earlier. If anyone else wants to be added to the names under any of the entries, just say so!

Triple post :/

Does anybody else have any contributions? I may add some more of my own soon, but it would be much more useful if it includes recommendations from many members!

by listing anime recommended by Ghibli Tavern members


so far I watched like 20 animes, most of them ghibli's, any way, and I stay away from series, so nothing much to recommend, but if I were to suggest something, that would be Patema inverted (for twist after twist through the movie) and 5cm per second (for making me feel very angry at the ending).

edit aaand I missed this:
quote:
please use the following template to lay out your submission


Title: Patema inverted
Alternative titles: サカサマのパテマ
Genre(s): sci-fi
Intended Demographic (if applicable): teens and up, I guess
Studio/Director: Yasuhiro Yoshiura
# Episodes: 1
Year of Release: 2013
Short Review (brief summary and opinion, avoiding spoilers): as I said, it has some twists, and they keep coming all the way through the film.
Content warnings (e.g. adult material and sensitive topics, if applicable): nope
Other notes (e.g. views commonly held about the anime, or mentions of things like filler, if applicable): RT 5.7, IMDB 7.4
For fans of: I dont know enough animes to fill this one )

Title: 5 cm/s
Alternative titles: 秒速5センチメートル
Genre(s): romantic drama
Intended Demographic (if applicable): adults?
Studio/Director: Makoto Shinkai
# Episodes: 1
Year of Release: 2007
Short Review (brief summary and opinion, avoiding spoilers): imho, it reminds you that right decisions are not at all what your heart says; "do not listen to your heart" should have been this film punch line.
Content warnings (e.g. adult material and sensitive topics, if applicable): nope
Other notes (e.g. views commonly held about the anime, or mentions of things like filler, if applicable): IMDB 7.8, like someone said on youtube "more like 5 wallpapers per second"

I'm sorry for never getting back to this. I think I overlooked it at the time. Anyway, thanks for the submission!

Do you think you could add a little more of a summary to your review sections? You can take a look at the list thread to see examples. I might adjust some of the formatting also, but with a little more information I'd be happy to add those two.

well obviously the best way to expand the summaries would be to replace them with wikipedia quotes. I just left there what was the important bits for me that made me recommend these.

since this post I likely doubled the number of titles I watched and probably could add more stuff to the list, but I dont really feel like committed enough to. I mean, it's far easier to just write "I saw XX today, and I liked it" like I just did on "what are you watching" thread, and get the same amount of response.
