Ok, im comfused. Can I simply ask if ANN is aquiring sequels or is that what is prohibited? (I don't think I've understood the wording of this rule very well.)

Simply put, you can't ask for recommendations on what to watch next. There are other threads listed in the first post of this thread that are categorized by genre and you can check there for info, as well recommend to others.

And ANN doesn't acquire sequels or any other anime for that matter. They stream anime on their site, but that doesn't mean that they own it.

I know they dont own it, but theres a show they have on here for a show I really enjoy. I guess I was just asking if ANN trys to get info for sequels of shows they already of info for.

So, ahem, what would I have to do if I wanted to ask for recommendations not by genre, but by a specific element... of the storytelling, I guess? (in this case it's cynicism without comedy elements)

I've got interested in Hell Girl because the ANN review states that the show is very cynical - but then I don't want to necro the horror thread or start a thread just about Hell Girl - and then I realised that I generally haven't seen that many shows where that particular aspect/element shines, so I wanted to ask for opinions and recommendations... Can I therefore start a new thread?

Mister V, this is just my opinion, but I believe that if you create a recommendation thread it could be allowed depending on how well written it was, and how it would attract further discussions(no listings etc.). All for all, you could try doing one, but there's no guarantee it won't be locked. And I really doubt you'd get a reply saying it's totally guaranteed that it won't be locked.

By the way, reading the previous posts of this thread may help.

If i want to find a good anime i often ask my sister who is always comparing anime or i ask my friends who have simmilar interests as me.
I really like how you can see other people's lists that have simmilar interest.
Very Happy

Haven't been on these forums for over a year now so forgive me if I'm not caught up on any new rules since then. However, I would like to ask if there are any links to any reviews/opinions on any of Anime to have been released the past year?

Well that depends on where you mean by "released". If you are referring to "released in Japan", then this Wikipedia page may be of some use. But if you are looking for the best Anime that were released in the States in 2009, then try this feature.

I still can't believe people manage to miss this thread. Seriously. It's at the top, in BOLD! It's like one person a day posts something that contradicts this thread. I just don't understand it one bit.

No mate you've got the wrong thread. Check this thread out for identifying anime series.

jhonsadins er... copy/pasting Tony K's moderation warning on the 3rd post to what end?

I do have a title in mind (three or four actually), but I'd rather be a jerk and not tell you than get on the wrong side of Tony K....

EDIT: This is the one and ONLY rule you must abide by. You may ask about one title, and that's it. More than likely, most of you will fail in at least doing this much, but this is all I will offer in terms of negotiation. If you can't do it, then take an English class and work on your writing skills.


...however I'm willing to at least point you in the right direction. Go to this link, and try your best to find the information by yourself.
