I just signed up for a two month free trial to Crunchy Roll and am a little overwhelmed by my options. Haven’t watched much anime in my life (Dragon Ball, Akira, Death Note, One Punch) maybe a couple others.

First thing I watched was Chainsaw Man and really loved the vibe and main character of Denji. Then I watched like 5min of Attack On Titan and just thought “this show is going to be a drag isn’t it” and stopped watching lol.

If anyone can suggest any Anime that’s not to melodramatic or take itself to seriously. My favorite genre trends to be Dark/Black Comedies. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

    I second 86 and Fate although they can be pretty serious. That said, I recommend starting Fate from Unlimited Blade Works then to the Heaven’s Feel movie trilogy before going to Zero since Zero was meant to be a prequel and spoils Heaven’s Feel. That was how the original source material was meant to be read. Additional bonus in that Unlimited Blade Works has a much lighter tone that is more approachable for people new to Fate.
