Mashle: Magic and Muscles might be right up your alley.

Watched first episode. It passed the vibe check. Thank you for recommendation.

[-] Toes@ani.social 6 points 7 months ago

Awesome, also Rin is best girl.

Ah. So much OTT bullshit magic in that particular series. Love it.

[-] tamlyn@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 months ago

I would start with Fate/Zero and go on to this, but i don't know if much people have the same opinion about that

[-] ReluctantZen@feddit.nl 1 points 7 months ago

I'm of a similar opinion, but lots of people don't agree, which I understand

[-] SuperSynthia@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

The only issue with Fate Zero first is you will be very spoiled on Fate Stay Night. It’s not a deal breaker though considering F/SN’s narrative is nonlinear…not to mention the Fate Route isnt faithfully adapted and the sequel has NO adaptation

[-] ReluctantZen@feddit.nl 1 points 7 months ago

Yeah, but even that doesn't have to be an issue. I personally started with Zero and didn't feel spoiled at all. I feel like it actually added a different aspect to the story: dramatic irony. While definitely not intended, I feel like it worked pretty well and quite liked that.

I watched a couple date anime series completely and liked them but there is just so many now I don't even know what to start with anymore.

Edit: autocorrect changed fate from date.. leaving it though cause I find it funny how well it kinda works.

[-] tamlyn@lemmy.zip 1 points 7 months ago

Fate/Zero is not a dating anime, i could give you recommondations for that maybe, but it would probably better if you do a seperate thread and tell us what you are searching for

[-] seang96@spgrn.com 1 points 7 months ago

Woops autocorrect really mangled that one. Fate*

[-] tamlyn@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 months ago

I could have thought that to..but yeah. Back to you initial comment. I think Fate/Zero and Fate Stay Night Unlimited Bladework are the best series to start with. And skip the 2006 Fate Stay Night, was decent, but Unlimited Bladework is better.

Fate/Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya is a magical girl version of the franchise. I have only seen 1-2 seasons but in my opinion is not that good. It's rather comedy than action anyways and some people don't like the ecchi aspect with small girls.

Fate/Encore Extra ... was bad in my opinion, just saw a few episodes so i cant say much about it anymore.

Fate/Apocrypha is good. Had a decent story and good action. i like it a lot, would recommend that after the Stay Night series.

Fate/Grad Order haven't seen, so i don't know.

[-] seang96@spgrn.com 2 points 7 months ago

Nice. I watched a couple of them but don't remember which. I want to say stay night and unlimited works sounds there most familiar haha

[-] SuperSynthia@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Ohhh 2nd it’s a fun series

[-] Toes@ani.social 6 points 7 months ago

A Certain Magical Index I also would suggest this one, it's a favourite of mine

[-] tamlyn@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 months ago

Well it's not bad, but i would rather go for the railgun one. I think the mc of magical index is rather boring, but the anime overall is not bad.

[-] jacksilver@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Black Clover might be a good fit. It's long and still making more episodes, but some of the fight scenes get pretty wild. I would say it's a little slow to get started though.

Madoka Magica

Not wizards/spellcasting in the traditional sense but JoJo Parts 3 and later have a similar vibe with the Stands' bizarre powers.
