So, prior to this I’m not usually interested in military theme series, but then I give Tanya a watch, and I’m hooked ! I’ve also watched the movie.

After that, I remember 86 and also finish those. The last one I’ve finished was Nippon Sangoku, and now I want more like these. I think it’s related, but I also throw Sentenced to be a Hero having same vibe, though it’s more focus on individual and has much more fantasy flavor setting-wise.

I don’t really care about the interpersonal between the character, I think I just enjoy the campaign/battle theater and the logistic side of the war.

Please throw me some of yours recs ! Thanks

Edit: Still reading the recs you guys give, thanks a lot. But for some more context I’ve watched most of Gundam entries so it’s already on my radar.

    I’ve watched FMP but not the other two and just to make sure, is this the one you mean :

    Gate

    Drifters

    I’ll go check both out, iirc there a new Gate coming out, but it’s a new timeline of something not related to this one, is that right or am I thinking of a different series?

    Thank you for the suggestion !

      new Gate coming out,

      The upcoming GATE season will follow a completely different set of characters, and the ones from season 1 only show up in cameo/guest roles. Its set a couple of years later (so, not a new timeline). Also, navy instead of army.

        Ah, okay. Is the first season ends in cliffhanger ? Not that I mind, but read quite a few comments wanting them to just continue with the first ensemble.

        Man that first one was crazy. I loved the whole thing then was like: wait, did I just watch pro colonial propaganda?

        Great show

          Lol, which one did you referring to? Drifter or Gate?

          I honestly didn’t expect this many recs, the subs usually have very few comments.

            Gate. It’s honestly super good though. Id watch it again, but it was one of those things that sort of arrested me. It could have come out of 19th century England. Makes you remember some stuff lol

            You asked a bunch of nerds about anime lol. Do you know how long I e wanted to talk about this?
