Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?



One of us! One of us! One of us!

Well Slash also wants these recommendations and I haven't seen very much, but you could look at my MAL account: http://myanimelist.net/animelist/Storm101

I'll look through all of these when I can and say which ones I find interesting.

Silvy pls, you can't call something overrated when all I did was recommend it as something worth watching.

Also, regarding the preference for anime that follow their entire source material: are you simply wanting to avoid ones that cut off and feel incomplete? If something adequately covers a portion of its source material without leaving you going "wtf", would that be fine?

I've heard Fate/Zero is non-canon. That bothers me.

I'll probably still watch it, though.

What.

No, it's definitely canon. >_> As far as I know.

I thought so, but I wasn't going to bother looking it up until I finished Heaven's Feel, since supposedly it spoils that arc.

It doesn't really spoil Heaven's Feel. Reading F/SN will spoil some F/Z things, and reading F/Z will spoil some F/SN things.

... though actually, yeah, finish F/SN first. There's some things you'll be able to get the full impact of without it.

On another note, I can't wait for the P3 movie to get subbed. I know it's gonna be a few months at least, but dang I want to watch it.

Slash, direct any and all Fate inquires to me

I bet what happened was that you stumbled upon
Draco don't click this until you finish it


And yeah, now that you've started F/SN, finish it before Zero. Doing either first is fine, but once you've started one, don't go to the other, finish it.

but I'm not giving them any expectations.

so unless the show is just straight up not enjoyable, their expectations would be met from me.

Unfortunately I accidentally got the ending of the Fate route spoiled. But yeah, noted~

Do you like watching trainwrecks?

Anything that fully adapts its source material, not something that gets one or two seasons and then gets abandoned while the manga/light novel continues.
Here's a list of stuff that goes against this criteria yet stand on their own as good anime:
Mushishi
Hourou Musuko
Chihayafuru (They'll eventually adapt all of it but it'll take a few years)
Sayonara, Zetsubou Sensei
Sakamichi no Apollon
Baccano!
Durarara!!
Nichijou
Toradora!
Hyouka
Detroit Metal City

Here's an actual list of complete adaptations that I recommend:
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
The Tatami Galaxy
Shinsekai Yori
Nodame Cantabile
Honey & Clover
Shiki
Clannad



Most of the anime I like happen to be anime originals, so my lists aren't too extensive.

Does Higurashi fall into that criteria? I think it's finished but I don't know for sure.
