Anyone know some good, preferably leftist, anime?
Not a fan of shonen, romance, harem or highschool anime if that helps.
To give you an idea of what I do like. Stuff like Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Baccano, Lupin the Third, and Miyazaki films are all good and I don't mind comedy if it's bizarre and stupid like Bobobo, or romcom if its wholesome as fuck and is about adults, like Way of the House Husband.
Thinking about what I've watched recently, Sangatsu no Lion was pretty good. It's about a depressed teenage shogi player, and it really resonated with me at times. It is kind of slow tho.
If you like bacanno you might enjoy durarara, which is based on a light novel by the same author. Emphasis on "might" though since it's hella convoluted, definetly too long for it's own good, is a lot more "anime", and a bunch of the main characters are high schoolers. Had a great time tho, specially the first season.
Sk8 the Infinity is a really stupid show about illegal skateboard races that I loved. There's a talking AI skateboard named Carla. At one point a guy literally just hits another dude in the head with his skateboard and calls it a "technique". The character dynamics are kind of fujoshi-bait but I didn't care because the iteractions were delightful. Though I do think they are cowards for not letting the skater boys kiss.
Definetly watch mob psycho 100.
