I'm asking for a rival, These three are by far the best ever made. It is the wittiness mixed with the seriousness and intelligence than combines them. They are not different at all if you think about it, all break the barriers and limitations of the universe, all are comical, all deal with strife and an underlying message, all are brilliant beyond belief. I'd add blame, Akira, Goats in the shell but you see these all lack one of the three combining elements, the wittiness. |
Well I've never seen Dragon ball and I just saw one episode of Rick. But Rick and Morty isn't an anime, it's a cartoon.
Gurren Laggan is kind of like that, but if you aren't familiar with anime you'd probably not understand the point of the fanservice. But yeah, mostly Neon Genesis, Fullmetal Alchemist, Kino's Journey, and Jojo. And Hunter x Hunter, though it's not witty.
Fullmetal Alchemist is probably the best show of all time when it comes to underlying themes all connecting to one grand point. Fullmetal Alchemist doesn't have "one theme" - it feels like a bunch of related themes all mixing into one big theme. But, to get the entire appeal of the show, you have to watch the different adaptations - FMA 03 and FMAB. Both are flawed but FMA 03 and FMAB are both great.
