Also what's the cutest anime you've ever seen or cutest manga you've ever read?

For anime, Princess Jellyfish is a favorite and pretty damn cute, and the manga is cute too (and has way more story): https://myanimelist.net/anime/8129/Kuragehime

For manga, one of the cutest I've ever read is The Bride Was a Boy by Chii which is an autobiographical account of growing up and coming out as trans: https://chapmanganelo.com/manga-sl107557/chapter-1

    I probably have other pictures worth sharing on my puter, I'll maybe share those in another comment, I can definitely find some cute clips...


    There's a lot of different types of cute, aren't there? Not all of which are necessarily directly comparable.

    For manga there is exactly one obvious choice for the cutest, and that is Yotsuba& — I have a cousin around the main character's age and I gotta say that Yotsuba& captures pretty perfectly the way he and a lot of kids that age act. "Today is always the most enjoyable day."

    For anime, it's not necessarily the cutest but I want to mention Mitsuboshi Colors for a similar reason, that Satchan reminds me a lot of a different cousin.

    Otherwise, I think these are all very cute or sweet shows:

    • Stardust Telepath (autism* yuri** factor)
    • In The Heart of Kunoichi Tsubaki (interesting setting, kids doing kid shit)
    • Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions (autistic* x nt romance)
    • Hitoribocchi no Marumaruseikatsu (autistic* mc making friends)
    • I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level (found family isekai)
    • Barakamon (calligrapher is exiled to a remote island and learns to be less of a grump)
    • Non Non Biyori (I like the moments with Renge and Candy Store)
    • Squid Girl (girl who is a squid)

    *autistic-coded

    **two characters touch foreheads and two others exchange an indirect kiss

    There are honestly a bazillion more that I could mention, but I have to leave some for other people to comment about, right?
