Details
I'm not 100% finalized on this, the idea just popped into my head and I thought it would be a fun event for everyone :) However the grand scheme of this is from next Friday till February everyday we'll be watching an hour of anime. (or longer, I just figured an hour is most convenient for everyone) An hour usually consists of about 3 episodes of an anime but what I thought would be pretty cool is having 3 different animes to watch, each a different genre from the other/an episode of each a day. This way, those who don't like a certain type of anime can have a chance of joining in on the fun with a different type. All of this will take place around 10:30/11pm EST every night.

What I ask of you?
If you're interested in joining in on the fun all I ask is for you to post your top 3 favorite genres of anime and an anime to go along with that. If you see a suggestion posted that you wanted to post, still go ahead and post it, this way I can start getting an idea of majority votes. I don't really have any suggestions at the moment because I like mostly everything so if you could please list some possibilities thanks so much!

The top suggestions will most likely be the animes we'll be watching until February. Except hentai you perverts!

Another thing that could be helpful is finding good websites that host the anime because sometimes one website is really good but for another anime bad.

Conclusion
If the idea does take off I'll be creating a Skype group for everyone to join in on or converse in the thread as well. I may possibly even throw in a few sponcons for a chance to win some credits!(Donations are always welcome)




ATTENTION

I went through the anime mentioned and have narrowed down to the three genres based on main interests. That being:

Comedy
Psychological Thriller/Horror/Supernatural
Drama/Slice of Life

Sorry action genre~ but I believe most of the interest was in the others, if the majority of you disagree let me know otherwise :)

With that being said the polls are up!
Decide one anime from each genre you would like to watch.

Comedy: http://strawpoll.me/911468
Psychological Thriller/Horror/Supernatural: http://strawpoll.me/911545
Drama/Slice of Life: http://strawpoll.me/911573

I'd also like to point out a few anime shows mentioned are not on the lists, this is due to how many episodes there are in them and time constraints.
Clannad is highlighted in green in the op because after story is recommended with it.

There is also one more poll I'd like for you guys to take, I've talked with a few in the group chat and we've decided on a possible 2 showings, one in the morning and one at night because of lack of availability at certain times. If anyone is interested in a morning/afternoon showing (12pm EST) Let me know as well.

Time availability poll: http://strawpoll.me/911623

Again, if you're interested in joining the group chat let danceflashrevo know :3, his Skype is also listed in the op~


ATTENTION v2

I've made a separate poll where you can select multiple anime for each genre. This should give us an idea of the number of people who are interested in watching for each and every one of the accepted suggestions. If you're interested in joining us for this event, please vote in this poll as well!

The form can be found here.

Attention V3


Yep that's right the polls are now closed and the votes are in!

The top anime we'll be watching:

Comedy: Nichijou
Drama/SOL: Non Non Biyori
Supernatural/Psych: Bakemonogatari
To make things a little less confusing considering time arrangement, this will all start Friday December 27 @ 11 pm Server Time
Technically its still the same as 12 am est but this way you guys can follow up on it easier.

I'd also like to note that 2 of the anime chosen are only 12 and 15 episodes long. When the time comes if you'd all like to watch another afterwards we'll do another poll! Unless you'd rather stretch the anime out to every other day that works as well~

Showings:

Nichijou ~ 11pm -11:30
Non Non Biyori ~ 11:30pm - 12am
Bakemonogatari ~ 12am - 12:30


Granted the shows aren't 30 minutes long and usually range from around 22-24 it allows down time to get everything arranged or take breaks and such.

In. I literally just got into anime like 2 months ago and I'm getting obsessed with it.

XelNya 12-20-2013 09:13 PM

Comedy (Lucky Star, Yuru Yuri, Seitokai Yakuindomo <- Funniest one I have seen yet.)
Dramatic (Clannad, Kotoura-san. Magical Girl Madoka)
Slice of Life I guess would be another fair one to use here, but it lumps in with most of the ones I just named.

Sweet Angel 12-20-2013 09:22 PM

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
Added a suggestion list to the op where i'll keep track of all the anime's. I would consider slice of life a sub genre of drama in this case so its ok :3

I haven't watched any new anime in a while, so this would be good for me. I'm in. The only thing that doesn't work is the time since I work until 11pm CST, so I'd be an hour behind everyone if that's ok...

Some of my favorite animes are:

Wolf's Rain (Adventure)

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (Psychological thriller/horror)

Baccano! (Gangster/Mob, Psychological thriller/horror)

Higurashi and Baccano though have a lot of blood and gore, so I wouldn't recommend them for the younger viewers or people who do not like a lot of blood and gore but maybe for the mature viewers who like those genres.

Sweet Angel 12-20-2013 09:42 PM

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
I'm going to add in~

Chobits: Comedy/romance
Steins;Gate: (lets just say science fiction)
Nichijou: Comedy (haven't seen this yet but i heard its really good)

And its ok dragon the time isn't "exact" i may even start it an hour later because sometimes I stay after work till 11 as well. So maybe at midnight est would be a little better. This can all change by next Friday so we'll see :)

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
Drama/Romance: Kanon 2006 (Seriously, fucking watch it if you like CLANNAD), Chuunibyou (could go under comedy), AnoHana, Angel Beats

Comedy: Nichijou, Seitokai No Ichizon

Action: Kill la Kill (though it's still ongoing)

Tarrik 12-20-2013 09:48 PM

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
I have too many animes to list that could go into this top 3, you'll also need to find the genres because i can't be bothered.
Full Metal Panic, Mirai Nikki and Kill La Kill.

Edit - Okay ddr just sniped my kill la kill ._. Blue exorcist, then.

I'm down to try it, but can I backpack off you guys since I don't really watch anime?

This is tempting, doubt I'll have time for it though... I'll add Spice and Wolf as uh, Fantasy/Romance/Drama I guess. My others have already been mentioned :/

If anyone wants invites to animebytes to download everything and anything let me know.

Also my suggestion is Princess Jellyfish. It's a drama.

FontSize72LOL 12-20-2013 10:56 PM

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
Comedy/Slice of Life: Great Teacher Onizuka, K-on!
Action: Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, Fate/Zero
Drama/Psychological: Welcome to the NHK!

Edit: Added a few more.

Yulanik 12-20-2013 11:08 PM

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
I'll join in :D

School Days - Guess this is kinda drama-ish yet psycho at the same time.
Guilty Crown - :)
Samurai Champloo - This is more action/comedy
Blood Lad - Fantasy/Comedy

I have tonnes of suggestions but I dun wanna flood the thread XD

tosh 12-20-2013 11:22 PM

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
Comedy: Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou, Great Teacher Onizuka, Kore wa Zombie Desu ka?
Action: Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Trigun
Psychological: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni*, Serial Experiments Lain

*Note: I actually prefer Serial Experiments Lain over Higurashi, but I don't really think it would work well in a group watching session.

Sephiroth28 12-20-2013 11:36 PM

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
Totally in on this. I have watched enough anime to mind-boggle most people. I have seen all the animes mentioned so far and also many more. As such I have no specific genre I prefer nor any that I dislike. I think this is a great idea. :D

Sweet Angel 12-20-2013 11:37 PM

Re: ~*Winter Break Anime Fun!*~
 
I'll let suggestions continue over the weekend and start finalizing the decisions before Friday. Will look over all the top anime picks then see if it will work out or not~ :3

I've never heard of this one, but I'll be sure to look into it if it's a psychological like Higurashi.

Another suggestion I have is Karas: The Complete Collection. I've never actually seen it, but I thought it looked cool, and I've been wanting to watch it. It would fall under action or sci-fi I think.

Psychological: Psycho-Pass
