So...we're getting a horse girls anime.

Fresh out of the gates of AnimeJapan 2017, cygames's upcoming horse racing / idol raising smart phone game Uma Musume - Pretty Derby will be receiving a TV anime adaptation with animation by P.A. Works (The Eccentric FamilyShirobako).

Aside from the announcement that cygames, TOHO animation, and Lantis are all involved as producers for the equine-girl themed TV anime, no further details about the production are yet available. We'll just have to break out our big book of horse puns and wait more later announcements.

Looks actually amazing.

There is nothing that can't be anthropomorphized into little girls and I hope they will never stop until all matter on earth will have its own anime.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Yeah I tend to avoid mega threads XD but I made an exception for once. Uhhh... probably something more slice-of-life like. So something slow but with a bit of depth like Clannad. I've watched every anime by Jun Maeda (so Clannad, Angel Beats, Kanon, etc.) so something similar to his work. Doesnt need to be SoL, but just slower/more relaxed

One of us...one of us....

I highly recommend Sangatsu no Lion (or March Comes in like a Lion). It was my Anime of the season two seasons in a row (*shamelessly self promotes his post above), and it fits the description above. It's basically about an introverted boy who works to overcome personal tragedies and complexes by playing shogi and forming new relationships. It's a nice blend of drama and humor. It's a bit slow, but if you don't mind that, it's worth trying for sure.

Have you seen Charlotte yet? I wasn't crazy about it, but if you like Jun Maeda stuff it might be worth it.

Both are on Crunchyroll, so if you can't find them elsewhere, I can PM you a guest pass.

Toradora is amazing (I think the last 4th of the show kinda drops the ball though)

Well SoL is my fave genre and like I always recommend, Natsume Yuujinchou season 1-5 (season 6 is about to start), Non Non Biyori, So Ra No Wo To and Barakamon.

@bolded Both are great, specially Natsume, even tho I still have to catch up to the rest of S3, 4 and 5
