I watched “Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End” a few weeks ago which is probably my first proper anime (not counting the odd episode of Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon or OnePiece I caught on TV as a child) and I really enjoyed it.
Especially the slow but deep character build up and general world building and exploration themes were really captivating. So I’m looking for something similar with focus on these aspects.
So far I found “Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina”, which was ok but didn’t quite live up to Frieren and wasn’t nearly as captivating.
So does anyone know similar shows or at least shows that focus on the aspects of story telling I mentioned avove?
I don’t think it does. I’ve read and forgot about why it’s not an anime. But that one I watched more than 27 times. It’s the best show there is, across all categories.
The strictest definition says Anime must be a Japanese production. Avatar was created in America.
Still it’s fantastic.
That sounds about right from what I heard, Personally I don’t really care. Not even about anime or live action or cartoon. I just like good story telling, character development and that kind of stuff.
As much as i agree anime is Japanese made, anime sites have decided to allow Chinese and Korean anime for whatever reason. Which is unfair to avatar.
I think avatar shouldve just been grandfathered into the anime community. I believe most anime lovers would agree it is definitely an american made anime. Is that a slippery slope to other american shows being grouped in? I think not, because there are no other beloved american animes other than avatar.
