You heard me. I honestly love anime, and even a bit of horniness is fine, but as I watch more and more and run out of "mainstream" things to watch, I find myself in the same situation over and over:
I watch the first few episodes of an anime and then it reveals some unpleasant tropes, often involving either lack of consent, minors, or both.
So I'm just looking for your top 3 anime suggestions that DON'T include loli/misogyny content.
Bonus points for isekai because I love that shit.
Edit: example of an amazing one - "Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill"
This is the problem. The things you have a problem with are particularly common tropes in isekai. If you look past isekai, I'd say most anime don't have these "problematic" things, so maybe you just need to broaden your horizons. Can you give examples of shows that you were unhappy with recently?
Lots of good recommendations already, I'll add some as well. Which should all be pretty much as non-fanservicey, loli, and misogyny free as isekai and fantasy anime get.
For something chill, an isekai that makes you want to eat
Restaurant to Another World
Gritty Fantasy Isekai
Grimgar: Ashes and Illusions
Fun Romping Around Fantasy Isekai
In the Land of Leadale
For the whole package of romance, fantasy, and a quality story
Bungou stray dogs. Basically zero horny, and an actual masterpiece to boot. This is one anime I genuinely think everyone who watches anime should try no matter their taste in general. Yes it's that good. Word of warning, though, season one isn't the best, it starts picking up from season 2 and only goes up from there.
These are all romance/romcom if you’re looking for something a little different
Insomniacs after school - romance from last season
Kaguya as others mentioned
Wotakoi: love is hard for an otaku - one of my favorites and I’m surprised it hasn’t been mentioned yet. I feel like it’s one of the rare romance anime’s that focus on working (post college) people
Horimiya - plus bonus season is airing now
Irina the vampire cosmonaut: romance is more of a secondary genre for this, but still really good. The OP has a really relaxing vibe too
ReLife - classic, but for a reason. What if you could go back and redo high school.
Any that you recommend? I’m with you that some of the less desirable tropes can really put a tamper on some good shows. Sorry there’s no isekai, I feel like a lot of them tend to have at least some fan service
If you're looking for an isekai I'd recommend Seijo no Maryoku wa Bannou desu (Saint's magic power is omnipotent). It's a lot more laid back than your average Shonen isekai and doesn't feature any of those problematic tropes, it also has a very sweet romance in it.
I'm back after watching most of Saints Magic, and dammmmn this was a perfect recommendation thank you so much. Really loved it, it was a totally refreshing series.
