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.

      +1 for The Faraway Paladin,and Ascendance of a Bookworm

      everything else is shonen trash, and shouldn’t be watched unless you want to turn off your brain and go watch shit tier storytelling
