The official Anime BADASS Anime Thread

[Shimus]

From Comedies and Romances to downright Gritty and Bloody slash Gorey, there's an anime for everyone. Most claim they're cartoons for children; but I beg to differ. I would not show half of the shows I've watched to developing kids until after they turned 16 or better. These have some repercussions in the developing mind. That's why as an adult I could enjoy these anime for what they were - gruesomely well-told stories. Some people prefer the cute-and-fluffy things, but I do not.

I like stories about war. Hopelessness, and overcoming it to beat incredible odds. Like Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.

Here's the opening:

(Sorairo Days, if you can't view it)

I like badass series. I like action that's over the top, like Black Lagoon's Boat Scene:

My good lord, CHILLS.

What's your favorite BADASS series? Explain!

Sword of the Stranger! Was a movie, but the ending fight here:

Was beyond badass.

I used to love Black Lagoon! But I lost interest waiting for like 5 years for Barrage to come out. That's my main issue with anime...
Been waiting for the second Attack On Titan since what? 2014, maybe even 2013?

Anyway, here's the trailer for another one of my favorite anime series. Very dark, much intrigue, and very much adult-oriented:
