openA monster based kids show? Anime
What I can remember of the show is minimal, and I may have some of it bleeding from Mon Colle Knights. What I CAN remember was that there were two kids, most likely in their elementary or middle school days, and they could summon monsters that were in the past. I do remember there was a paint based monster. Now, the biggest thing I remember was that there was a woman with a red leather look, she had two male minions, and that she would "whip" the monster to turn it into an "evil" form. The kids, meanwhile, could summon a creature to their side to help, and they could make them into a superheroic form to fight on their behalf.
openSomething with Arenas Anime
So all I remember:
There's like a gameboy or something in the beginning, and they play some battle game there. Later on they get taken into the world of the game and they battle in teams in a big arena and they do quests for battle items or something.. there was a dude with glasses too. The Cartoon is mid 2000s I'd say..
I really want to watch it but I can't remember anything.. help me

Edited by andysmoopenAnimal Cop Anime Anime
There was this anime I saw a while ago, and I've been trying to find it ever since. It was about two people, and I think they were cops or something. The two people had like animal ears and tails, and I think one of them was a rabbit and the other one may have been a fox. It's not zootopia. The cops looked human, they just had some animal features. The show was called Rabbit and Fox or something of the sort, but I'm not sure if the other character was a fox. I've looked for it on google, but I haven't found anything so it would be amazing if anyone knew what I was talking about.
openLife is a Dating Sim Anime
At one point, when i was looking at the Anime Image Source List, I came across an anime that I wanted to check out, but now I can't remember the name of it. All I remember is that the story involves a main character who would, at various points in his life, be forced to pick from a small list of choices on how to proceed, as if he was playing a Dating Sim (It's kind of like Date A Live, except instead of the multi-choice list being Kotori's method for giving Shido 'advice', this guy's life is run by it).
openfilm from the 1980s Anime
This is immensely annoying, because I managed to track down this and the other piece I'm asking about three or four years ago, but I've lost the file in which I wrote down their details, so I need to find them again.
The first one is an animated film shown on British TV several times during the 1980s. The film looks rather like a Japanese animé but I believe it is British. A young boy aged about eight is stranded on his onw on a planet where there are mobile plants, one of which I think acts as a boat for him. A party of people on a spaceship are coming to rescue him but there is a lot of political infighting amongst them. Eventually we learn that there is a time loop involved, and that one of the people coming to save the little boy is himself as an adult.
openI'm trying to recall the name of a manga I read as a kid. Anime
There was a manga I read as a kid where there was some kind of princess that was in love with a servant boy. Her father didn't want her associating with him, but she went against his wishes and decided to become a servant as well so she could be near the boy she liked. I don't remember anything else in particular other than the girl's mother seemed to have no qualms about her daughter being a servant and that they wore something like tradtional Japanese kimono and such. I'm 99.99% sure it was a shoujo manga. Does anyone have any idea?
openShapeshifting kids show Anime
I only saw it once in a foreign language, so I REALLY don't have much detail. It's an anime with kids that can turn into animals. One is a pink-haired girl with a pink cat-hairpiece who can turn into a pink cat with a pink crown on her head. Another girl has black hair with spiral glasses and can turn into a bunny (still with glasses) with a big clover on her chest. Then there's a boy who can turn into a mouse with a green hat and a yellow handkerchief. They all got some sort of costume (that corresponds to their animal form and has the same expression as them whenever they're shocked or some other emotion) whenever they're about to transform. Whilst wearing them, they look more chibi. From what I saw, there's an episode with them trying to find the mouse boy in a restaurant (with hungry people with animal ears) while the mouse boy tries to protect a mouse and her nest of mice from an old lady's snake Shiro. But they must hurry because if the transformation lasts more than 99 minutes, he'll be stuck as a mouse forever. Sorry if there's not enough detail ><

openAnime, ballerina, orphan.....CANT FIND IT! Anime
uhm I have serched everywhere but can't find it. So if none of u guys can't find or remember it either I am pretty sure I have just a crazy mind and I have wasted like nearly a whole day trying to find it.
So it was anime and it was about this girl who loved to dance and was living with orphans or other girls and they treated her super bad and mocked her. She was like a maid for them. And one day she got like these ballerina shoes// shoes form her mom and this was all she had left of her, bc she had disappeared or something. And I remember one episode she got a visit from a man and said he was going to help her. Again I am not sure I it even exist but I am sooooo sure I watched it when I was little.
Sorry for my bad English, It's not my usual language.
Edited by NaviaopenI cant remember the name of an anime I watched years ago Anime
This was some time ago, early 2000s and this anime really intrigued me younger but I could never find it. I'll say everything I can remember: This anime had a mix of 2d and 3d, the 3d part seemed to be some kind of matrix, virtual reality world where there were three people fighting an enemy. One guy, one girl who was some kind of ninja girl and another girl who wore pink. They were heading to some special room, but ended up fighting someone. The first 2 were defeated and were vaporised in the virtual reality world and returned to real world (in 2d). The pink girl made it to the room will lights, like an upwards tunnel and floats upwards. The 3d stops and everything is 2d again, as if everyone is in the real world. If anyone knows the name of this anime please tell me as it has bothered me for years. I'm sorry it's so vauge, but thanks anyway.
openHelp Anime
I've been searching for this anime/cartoon since like 2010. There are few things I remember so this is a long shot but here goes. It was a anime that children watched, like Naruto or One Piece, but it wasn't as well known. What I remember about the characters is, the first season, there was a antagonist in a red mecha-like suit and the protagonist had a green one. There was another character with a pink suit, the pink one was quite shy and had an evil brother that tries to take over in the second season (I think the brothers name was Phoenix). All through the first season, the red and the green characters were rivals, but in the second season they become friends. What I remember about the plot is that it's a fighting arena/tournament series, and the characters are quite young. The series was either dubbed or recorded in English. I watched this show all the time as a child and I wish to revisit it. If you have any ideas that could help me, I would really appreciate it.
openRed Moon anime (Not the 11eyes anime) Anime
I'm trying to find an anime about a group of (I think)students that have to fight off monsters whenever a red moon appear. I don't remember much of it, but there is one part in an episode that stands out. The students are relaxing someplace when the moon appears. Some of the students go into some tomb like place where there is a door and two torches. I believe there were some murals or hieroglyphs saying that to get the door open they have to change the color of the flames from red to (I think)blue and green. They do this by putting something in both of the torches. I asked this question before and got the 11eyes anime for an answer. I watched it, and it was not this anime.
openSome magical girl anime Anime
I looking for an anime about a magical girl with a pervy penguin sidekick who has a rival who is also a magical girl with a sidekick as well. I don't remember too much about the show, but there was an episode where the girl used her power to lift up a car that I think was crushing someone.

Edited by DynamicCapybaraopenAnime featuring giant dog-bird thing? Anime
I saw it in an AMV years ago (like 2008-2011) but can't find the original anime or the video. It's a 2000s anime about a girl and a feathered monster. I remember it having a Tvtropes page.
I remember the bird was in a cage and the girl befriended it. It attacked her for some reason. Later on it escaped (?) but died by falling (?).

openKids show about floating islands and lack of water Anime
So it's a tv show i watched as a kid. they lived on floating islands and flew atround in big ships looking for storaged water. thats about all i remember.

Ok, so I've been searching for a cartoon (anime type) show but can't find what it could be. So I'm hoping someone might have a clue.
If I remember correct. It is about a kid who has a sportscar. Guess he's an orphan and lives on an island research center with a professor. I will say that there is a really long bridge out to the island too, and would be in the intro as well.
I remember that in one episode he is in an underwater dome. I think the car colors was red, white and blue or one or two of thsoe colors. Can't be really sure. Should be late 90's or early 00's serie
