Welcome to c/anime on Hexbear!
A leftist general anime community for discussion and memes.
Simple rules
Be nice.
Use spoiler tags.
Don't sexualise underage characters, including 1000 year old loli ones.
Don't post hentai here. This is an anime community.
High quality threads you should definitely visit
Gigathread: Good Anime Talks, Presentations, Conventions, Panels, etc
Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.
i'm going to include some ovas as well because i want to and they're close enough to movies in that they're limited release, so you won't have to worry about them being too long
MOVIES
oh, akira is also worth checking out but i assume you've at least heard of that one, and it was already mentioned
OVAs
Yeah, especially the second movie. That one is basically a leftist reflection on the fall of the USSR and the "End of History". The third one sucks, but it's not made by Oshii.
I was about to try and defend it, but yeah it's mid as fuck lol
Anyone who doesn't watch this movie should at least see the climax scene, it's fantastic.
DYRL is basically what got me into anime proper.
I wouldn't recommend Macross over Gundam to hexbear, but this is probably one of my favourite anime movies, problematic aspects and all.
Yeah, Gundam is just a better show hands down. SDF Macross is still really special, though, especially if you've watched some of the stuff that inspired it. You really get a feel for how these people who made it have a genuine love for animation, science fiction, and music.
Beer can missile!
If you can choke down Macross/Gundam you should try on Dunbine, Orguss, Xabungle and Megazone 23.
Thank you so much for this amazing list! Only ones I've seen from it are Akira, Angel's Egg (which I LOVED) and 1 episode of MSG (so far). Gunbuster has been high on my list since I heard about it, but the rest of these also sound great.
