Again, who cares who it's "for"? If it's good it's good. Even if you don't like the conventions of shoujo anime, all the more reason to watch Ouran High since the premise of that show is built around mocking how dumb these conventions are.Anoni Mus said:corretion, it's for teenage girls.FireAza said:And...? It's really funny, and good humor knows no gender!Anoni Mus said:Ew, that's for girls.mitchell271 said:Ouran Host Club! Go watch Ouran Host Club! It's in my top 5 for a reason.
If it was Josei like Nana it would be another thing.
Yeah, you can skip it NOW. I watched it weekly when it was coming out, so I basically had to skip 2 months of Haruhi because of that shit. That's why I still hate it.[Kira Must Die said:]It baffles me when I see people still hate on Endless Eight nowadays. I mean, you guys do realize you can skip it now, right? Also, The Disappearance more than makes up for it.Dirty Hipsters said:Yes yes, Haruhi is all great until that fucking summer arc. God how I loath it.FireAza said:Haruhi is a great, clever show, so that would be my first recommendation, but Princess Jellyfish is also very good, so make sure you don't forget about it! I wouldn't worry too much about the "stylish" elements, since the show is about a group of nerds, fashionable people are like terrifying monsters to them
OT: I'd say watch Haruhi first. Regardless of how you feel about it in the end, it's one of those animes that almost every self-proclaimed anime fan has to see.
Yeah, exactly, you can skip it now. That's not the case anymore, at least for newer viewers. I'm sorry you had to sit through that when it first aired (I just waited for the dub : P), and I get why you hate it, but whatever.Dirty Hipsters said:Yeah, you can skip it NOW.

Besides, there's no way you can say that any part of endless 8 is actually good.
OP asks for a slice of life anime, and you say Attack on Titan.Anatoli Ossai said:Shingeki no Kyojin - Attack on Titan
Ouran Host Club is about a girl that has to pose as a guy in a host club and the antics they get into. While there may be a huge amount of pink and roses, it's extremely entertaining and one of the most entertaining things I've seen in the world of anime. It may start off looking like an obnoxiously girly shoujo, it's actually made for guys and is a fantastic slice-of-life comedy.StormShaun said:I haven't watched it but Ouran Host Club! doesn't look that great really.

What the fuck kind of life are you living?
So that's the reason nobody knocked the shit outta her for being such a fucking loon? she's basically that little kid from that twilight zone episode? wtf?FireAza said:There's a reason they don't do that: she's mother fuckin' GOD. She's come close to erasing the universe as we know it for far lesser things, let alone having one of her friends hit her. Despite that, there was a big moment in the series where Kyon came very close to punching her for going too far, and had to summon all his willpower to not do it, since having the universe erased just wouldn't be worth it.Casual Shinji said:But I fucking hate Haruhi as it is anyway. I don't know if you've ever heard of the British sitcom Keeping Up Appearances, but it's basically that in anime form and set in high school- Everyone dancing to the tune of this one annoying character, instead of slapping her across the face. Great production values though.[/img]
Seriously dude, I think you're underselling The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, it's far cleverer than you think. There are cliches and stereotypes, but that's because the series likes to play with these ideas, such as implying that both Koizumi and Mikuru may never have existed and were brought into existence by Haruhi's desire for a "mysterious transfer student" and a "moe loli girl" brought about by her exposure to these stereotypes in the pop-culture she watches.
