maybe Monster

Pretty sure I'm like the only Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei "fan" left alive at this point.

I actualy like all the Kumeta-verse anime, SZS, Joshiraku and specialy Kakushigoto. The latter is probably the best and most acessible in general, but you wouldn't recognize these all being the same mangaka unless by the obvious artstyle. Just seeing Kakushigoto's MC roleplay as Zetsubou sensei was my own weeb nostalgia lol.

Its obviously dated now, specialy SZS, one of the gags is literally a girl Nokia phone texting. But it is some very cynical and based commentary on Japanese society, obviously exaggerated, but any weeb thinking Japan is dream land would be de-converted pretty quickly after watching it.

But it is also extremely dialogue heavy so if you can't enjoy reading subs then its just meh, art is also mid, though if you understand why the choices were made it makes sense and its kind of charming. Its unfortunate but I still think its a personal gem.

irl or even online? Do I get to count manga? If the latter and yes . . . uh, I don't think I've met a single person who likes Tenkaichi even though it's genuinely one of the best manga currently running. No Kengan Omega fans either, though it's not half as good imo. Also that one about the Detective Novel club, Versus, and, well, I guess I'd be here all day listing them all

If it's just anime, I've never met a Kengan Asura or Blue Lock fan, so there's that. Yes, I know Blue Lock is obviously proto-fascist, but it's still interesting here and there. I also think "The Misfit of Demon Academy" is unintentionally one of the funniest anime ever made and I don't know any fans of it. I can give it a thonk and come up with others if you're really interested, but I think that's a decent enough list to start.

PTSD Radio (manga) is another fun one. As an aside, my list is way shorter than it would otherwise be (Great Pretender, Paranoia Agent, a few others) because usually when I really like an anime I force someone else to watch it.

Oh! Blood Blockade Battlefront and Akudama Drive. Those are both really fun, well-animated action anime that I have never met a fan of.

Ranma 1/2.

I'm late, but Air Gear. Inline skates with souped up micro-motors in them. Gangs/clubs with sticker logo patches all battling it out on the ground and in the air. It's my shit.

Flint the Time Detective. I've also met Digimon fans, but never fans of Appmon in particular. That was one of their best arca, but it got overshadowed by the dogshit Digimon Tri.

Oh we're doing obscure anime?
The dog Silver/Silverfang.
People in Japan don't even know about this one

Mononoke is beautiful in aesthetics, also deals with some taboos like prostitution and mysoginy. Not to confuse with Princess Mononoke.

Love watamote, i can't believe i didn't see anyone mention it here. I got the dvd that i re-watch every so often, and the first few volumes of manga. I fell off cause of life though ;-;

Kaiji. It is so good, but most people are turned off by the artstyle.
