I'm sorry everyone. I'm going to wish Berserk back again. Maybe next time it'll be good

Thanks to @NineSwords@ani.social for running the discord!
No game no life
Charlotte. Just a reboot would be cool to see or maybe same universe different characters.
Deadman wonderland
That one... With the city and the eyes... Fuck what was it? Blood blockade battlefront! I loved the setting and world building.
Outlaw Star.
Ghost Stories. Specifically the dub.
"A dub like that?? In this day and age? What are you r*tarded??"
I second this with Shin Chan AS dub. If only the director didn't die n a skiing accident who knows if it would have still kept going
I would normally remove comments using the r-word, but for those unaware, this is basically a paraphrased quote from the Ghost Stories dub that was mentioned. It was definitely a product of its time and would never be able to be made like that today.
It's definitely... questionable in it's content choices. I'm autistic and a member of the plus sign mafia. I'm not personally offended by any of the content, but there's definitely stuff for a wide variety of groups to get mad at. It's very 2000s. I don't know if it caused any harm, but I don't get the feeling that anyone meant for it to. Honestly, I unironically enjoy it. Maybe it's better that it's never coming back though.
Deadman Wonderland. Likely a reboot more than a second season
Also a bonus; Ebichu. Please. More raunchy adult animated comedy anime please. What happened with that genre??
High-school of the Dead
No Game No Life
Tower of God (just rewrite the whole thing with the same premise)
With High school of the Dead 's story author's death, I don't think it will ever come back. Even the manga was cancelled.
Gantz. I really love that idea of the dead world on the other side of our reality.
Air gear
God YES, The battle against sleeping forest ova was cool to get at least.
Two things pop into my mind at least.
- Tokyo ghoul. I want a FMA brotherhood reboot. They would only need to do the second season really. (I know, very original)
- Votoms. I just want this in some modern graphics. I feel like a reboot of this series could gain some popularity currently. Less “real robot” series more gritty military Real Robot
Honestly, even though it's already a masterpiece, it would not hurt my feelings to see a reboot of Chobits.
Give me two new seasons with new art, maybe explore some more of the storyline or something.
Failing a reboot where they redo it with modern art techniques and everything, maybe there could be a parallel line, or pick up where it left off and give us one additional glorious season of Chi taking her rightful place as the persocom empress of the world or something.
Space Brothers had the first 20 something volumes turned into a fantastic 99 episode anime, but in 2014, they caught up to the source material so stopped. It totally deserves a continuation, as there's another ~20 manga volumes out now.
I'd love to see more G Gundam but it's hard to imagine them actually doing that. They released a new novel though so maybe...
I just want my HG Nether Gundam kit. Is that too much to ask?! Maybe a HG Cobra Gundam too, and a RG Nobell Gundam to match RG God Gundam?
What's considered "older" anime?
I don't think I want to see any of the answers to this question
Me neither ... Wait.
Imo, pre-2012. I think you could also argue that 2018 or 2020/2021 is the start of the modem era of anime, or even 2006.
Another season of One-Punch Man.
Waiter! More punch men please!
I need Hyouka S2.
Well, assuming that a modern remake or continuation can manage to recapture the magic of the original and retain its style:
Bubblegum Crisis (NOT Tokyo 2040)
The Guyver
NGNL.
Golden Boy
Full Metal Panic. It’s one season away from being finished.
Serial Experiments Lain was weird enough I wouldn’t mind more.
Armitage
Somebody already mentioned it but Air Gear.
Read or Die…It had a series but I never got to watch it. I’ve only seen the OVA’s. So this is probably just a ‘I should watch that’…forgot about it.
I like your taste internet person! Armitage would go soooo hard in some modern graphics
It doesn't really deserve it, but I want to see infinate stratos s3
If I can choose a manga that never finished and deserves both a revival and an anime?
Zombie Powder
I'd love to see Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs ride again.
Also Samurai Pizza Cats, not sure if the magic of the dub can be recaptured though.
"K-On!" sequel pls 🥺
Also, "Gangsta." did not deserve what happened to it. Same for "So I'm a Spider so What?", although it's rather recent.
And why do all the titles that come to mind have freakin punctuation in them?
Baccano! was really good, I wish it hadn't ended where it did
Akagi. Ended halfway through the Washizu arc because they caught up to the manga, now it's finally done so I'd love to see them go back and complete it.
Also from the same mangaka, Kaiji. Part 3 is the best and it's a damn shame that the anime ends right before then.
Hmmm, a number of very weird ones come to mind first...
- Shangri-la (2009)
- The Third: Aoi Hitomi no Shoujo (2006)
- El Cazador de la Bruja (2007)
- Real Drive: Sennou Chousashitsu (2008)
Maybe because I had too much time to watch obscure stuff back then, and I love me some rare animus. Then again, they all weren't all that good, probably why they only had one season. And it's all female-led sci-fi I just noticed, shows my preferences...
Captain harlock
2020s
Needs a sequel
86 - still has source material to adapt
How heavy are the dumbbells you lift? - still has source material to adapt
Needs a reboot / remake / sequel
Gundam: Witch from Mercury - could have been extended to show us more of its lore
2010s
Needs a sequel
Cautious Hero - still has source material to adapt
Sakura Trick - still has source material to adapt
Hyouka - still has source material to adapt
Too Old
Needs a reboot / remake
Gundam X - deserves to be properly made instead of getting cut short due to pressures
Wait a second. Some of these anime came out only recently, you may say.
That just mean you are old, boomer. /s
Escaflowne - with modern animation and a full orchestra
Galaxy Express 999 & Captain Harlock
Vampire Hunter D
Big O
Escaflowne - with modern animation and a full orchestra
Much of the original soundtrack was recorded by the Warsaw Philharmonic, if I recall correctly, so it's already had the full orchestra treatment.
discussed this question with my same aged friend and we kept going through things and realizing they'd already been remade or being like "yeah it was great at the time but that time sure has passed"
My answer to this used to be Panty + Stocking, but they have a new season coming out on my birthday!
I guess now my pick is 009-1. I really love a good East vs West rivalry, and having a femme James Bond doing espionage in a world where the Soviets never collapsed really hit a lot of notes. I gets pretty weird towards the end, and I wish they had another season to go even weirder.
