recommend me some animu i might like? would be nice to steer more towards action/mind games genres rather than all this slice of life shit i've ended up watching

Evangelion has best of both worlds. psychological train with deep and disturbed characters and a story rich with symbolism and ambiguity? watch the series and the first movie. action packed with amazing animations and cinematography? watch the new movies.

i've seen evangelion a while back, didn't like it that much. the characters were too whiny and emotional for me, and the ending was a damaged version of a philosophical concept i have a lot of respect for

So DanMachi and Nisekoi S2 just ended...

I thought they were at least going to get 20 episodes, but... Damn... That feeling when you get shot down from your high expectations. It hurts...

Both those shows aren't worth all those episodes in the first place imo
