Shows that I like

Legenda

Introduction

Welcome to the shows' section. Here you will find Timmy, Jimmy's brother. He really likes this place, so much that he built his hut here. You can greet him too but he's more shy than Jimmy. He will greet you back but it will not find him in other sections of this glade. Talking about this section: in this section there are all the shows I have watched and liked. In this section there will be also manga and books that I have read because creating two different section would have been redundant. As for videogames, the ones with a "!" are shows or books that have also a rambling dedicated to them.

Animated Shows

Little disclaimer: I will divide anime and other cartoons in different sections for pratical reason.

Spongebob

Gravity Falls

Incredible serie. A pleasant view even if you are out from its target audience.

Invincible

The show that generates the best memes even if it doesn't want to.

Bojack Horseman

Rick and Morty

Inside Job

Underrated series. An adult show that doesn' rely on gross jokes to be funny. Great plot, great characters and a great satire.

Ben 10

Phineas and Ferb

The Fairly OddParents

Billy & Mandy

It was so chaotic, but that's why it was so good.

Kick Buttowski

Little side note: in italian the show is called Kick Chiapposky (chiappe means butt in italian). I have never seen such a genius adaptation. It is so good that my dad used to call me this way because he found it so funny and because i always watched this show.

Adventure Time

The Legend of Vox Machina

The Mighty Nein

Hazbin Hotel

Craig of the Creek

I think that it is worth to watch if you are Gen Z. I don't know but it is so nostalgic (in a positive way) for our generation. I think it is the setting and the friendship between the main trio. I don't know it just remembers me of when I played outside with my childhood friends. A comfort show for sure. Check it out.

Castelvania

One of the best serie based on a videogame. Incredible plot and interactions between the main trio.

Arcane

Blue eye samurai

The amazing world of Gumball

Smiling Friends

Total Drama

I only liked the seasons with Chris Mclean, he carried the whole show.

Ninjago

Teen Titans GO

Strappare lungo i bordi

I think you can appreciate it only if you are italian unfortunately. If you know italian (or are you italian) watch it.

Anime

In this section we have my favourite anime.

Attack on Titan

My favourite anime. I know that some people didn't like the ending and the final seasons but i think that the timeskip really worked to engage in more mature themes and added depth to the manga and anime. Watch it, especially in this period.

Cynerpunk: Edgerunner

I still have never fully recovered. Thanks to it I discovered the Cyberpunk universe. Prepare to be devasted in the finale.

Chainsaw Man

Unironically I think that Aki, Denji and Power is the most beautiful and genuine trio that we had in a long time. Although its themes could seem superficial and badly presented if you stop a second to analyze them better you will understand that chainsaw man explores pretty heavy themes in a really intelligent way, especially Denji's traumas.

Jujitsu Kaisen

Although its fandom has lost all its braincell (I am looking at you lobotomy kaisen) JJK remains a beautiful work of art. Although it is not perfect I really suggest it. Great characters and the power system is one of the coolest one out there.

DanDanDan

The plot is about a boy who has got his ball stolen by a yokai and now he and his wacky friends have to retrieve them. 10/10 plot.

Record of Ragnarok

Vinland Saga

A beautiful journey of redemption.

Seven Deadly Sins

Great anime until I think the last season. It isn't the best anime out there but until the third season is pretty enjoyable. I didn't like the excessive fanservice and some questionable plot choices.

Tokyo Revengers

Still watching it but really enjoyable. Simple plot but really effective.

Heidi

If you are italian you probably watched at your grandparents' house after school. It is a canon event.

Shin chan

I don't know how in Italy a show like this was considered for kids, especially with the heavy censorship that we had at the time. I remeber this show like a fever dream.

TV series (not animated ones)

Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Watch it, the best humor in a sitcom I have ever seen. I wished the ending was Jake that went to live with Doug Judy but you cannot always win (clear enemies to lovers trope). Really positive note: altough being a sitcom it dealt with really heavy themes in a very intelligent way.

Breaking Bad

Game of Thrones

I never understood the appeal, then one day I decided to give it a try. I understood the appeal. I also undertood the reviews on the ending too unfortunately.

The Boys and Gen V

I think the show that started the trope of going against the idea that marvel created of superheroes. Homelander the best villain in a TV show that we had in a while. Watch it in original language because Antony Starr's performance has homelander its the best part of the show. One side note: it is full of gore, so you are advised.

The Witcher

Unfortunately you can see how Henry Cavill wanted it so bad to be a good show, but Netflix had other plans. Watch the first season anyway, it really sticks out from the other ones in terms of quality.

Films (All categories)

Cars

The best animated movie by far

Lord of the rings

WALL-E

The second best animated movie by far

Porco Rosso

"better pig than fascist"

Howl's moving castle

Spirited away

My most favourite Ghibli studio film although I was so scared by No-Face when I was little.

V for Vendetta

Lego Movie

I still watch it sometimes. It is so beautiful and funny.

Ice Age

IT

Stand by me

The Northman

How to train your dragon

Shrek

Spongebob: The movie

The Witch

A really good folklore horror.

Night at the museum

Manga and Comics

Note that some manga are still not finished so can reviews and opinions could change over time

Berserk

My favourite manga. It has pretty heavy themes and sometimes some scenes are only for shock value I would criticize. Apart from that the rest is incredible: the stpry, the characters and the drwaings are all 10/10. Griffith is one of the most beautiful villains of all time, I was so impressed by him even already knowing what he did. Read it. I also hope to see the end some day.

Vagabond

A really pleasant read. It is a seinen like berserk so it deals with heavy themes but I think it does a great job in showing the philosophy of the author.

Attack on Titan

I think that the anime really helped the story. I really liked the manga but I admit that the anime really perfected the story and lots of scenes. I suggest watching the anime intead of reading the manga.

Chainsaw Man

I think that after Makima the story has a bit fallen of. Don't get me wrong I really like Asa and Yoru but they don't have the same chemistry of the original trio. Yoru as a villain is starting to grow on me altough so we will see, maybe we have to let Fujimoto cook (which I think he is doing because i am really liking this arc). I have to admit that the release of the chapter is awful, I would really prefer a monthly-based release.

Blame!

Topolino

Asterix and Obelix

Really enjoyed them as a child and I think that not so many people realize how much is satirical.

JJK modulo

I have many thing to say about it so it will probably have a rambling dedicated. It's a fun reading if you have read the main series or if you have been spoilered to the death by the fandom (still looking at you lobotomy kaisen).

Books

Lovecraft's books

My favourite horror genre and the only horror books that really scared me.

Animal Farm

Metamorphosis (Kafka)

The secret garden

Christmas carol

Fairy tales and myths collections

I always have been fascinated by folklore and mythology.

Exit Reality

A pretty good book about the most strangest and famous trends of Internet (backrooms, vaporwave and similar). Read it if you grow on Internet, you will like it. Only side note, I think there's only in italian.

Deltora

The King in Yellow

Lord of the flies

The Little Prince

The last book in the universe

I have no mouth, and I must scream
