    Question Do you understand what i like ?

    out of all animes so far the one that gets the essence of me/my thoughts/interests is Wolfs Rain. Its not too heavy/dark/serious yet full of action and impending doom with fast momentum with beauty, sci-fi, mystery and a perfect ending.

    heres a list of anime i liked
    i am not limited to 1 genre but the show must be conceptually interesting with a good feeling in it. I really hope someone can reccomend something for me! and please ask me anything else you wanna know to make this easier

    As always, I will recommend a personal fave, Monster:

    Great story and deep characters but its definitely not light-hearted.

    Try Darker than Black. Good show, good action.. people with mutant like abilities (and a drawback to each of those abilities, one of them being they lose their emotions), organizations each with their own agenda going up against each other and a pretty dark setting.

    If you like Death Note.. you could try Code Geass.. wouldn't say it's as dark but it's a nice interesting show.. if you don't mind mecha battles and commanders with super natural abilities and great tactical minds having both a literal war but also a war on public opinion, trying to win the people at the same time.

    Ergo Proxy, a bit thought heavy this one but it has a nice post apocalyptic future setting. Similar to wolf's rain as mankind is being confined to cities trapped in giant bowls protecting them from the harsh outside climate.

    and that's all i can think of right now.. i may add more later =P

    Thanks northernian :D

    Try Mirai Nikki if you like death note... It was awesome as hell! You might try watching Phantom ~Requiem for the phantom.

    also i'm not that interested in watching something similar to deathnote again. I want something different, anything unique or funny or dramatic as long as there is momentum and the story knows where it's going and keeps me interested to know what happens next, you know? please click on the link i posted ^ to get a vague idea. just added comments on all the animes too! thanks and sorry to make it difficult

    Try Kaiji (S1 and S2). It is funny, and it seems to fit your requirements, but it's a good story about harsh realities of life.

    You mentioned Dark/ Serious so I recommend that you see the anime called: No.6
    The storylines aren't the same but you'll definitely feel the same after watching :D

    -=-=Incomplete Anime Movement (IAM)=-=-
    For years, we have been suffering incomplete anime's, incomplete endings. Studio's making series 12 to 26 episodes long where the ending is left open, incomplete, and awkward. This movement is to stop production companies from ending series suddenly, finish them properly, and correct. If you are the lucky one's caught off guard with...

    • Unexplained ending due to it ending suddenly
    • Open ending expecting a season 2

    Fight back and spread the word. Anime is not a profit margin, its a way of life!
