I am watching now Shirobako.

Well basically an anime about an anime studio watched trough mostly Aoi who with her friends always wanted to make their own anime.
Personally a must watch for any anime fan it makes you appreciate anime a lot more.

I am kind of shocked how unpopular it is based on ratings especially for a show that is very recent.
Honestly this is more of my cup of tea, I like 'more' realistic anime and you feel the struggle of some characters.  I enjoy New Game but some moments make me cringe and feels like fan service.   Anyway Shirobako and Genshiken are the kind of anime that i enjoy the most. Tried some other anime because I want to find a very funny one, As a teen I was really into Azumanga D'aioh pity their will never a Yotsuba& anime.


Also awkward to read Lucky's last comment cause the studio titanic is also in the anime:

If Shirobako has a low rating then that tells me everything I need to know about the site where that happens.  It's easily one of the best anime of the last several years.

To add onto this, it wasn't especially popular when it was airing, but high praise got a lot more people to come back to it and it has become one of the most popular anime of this decade so far. I felt like I was hopping on the train pretty late when I watched it a couple months back considering it felt like everybody had already seen and loved it.
