resolved An old anime show Anime
All i remember is that the Big Bad is a devil with one horn broken off, his minion is a Mushroom Man who gets around via a flying log and the heroes travel through various surreal magical kingdoms. I think one kingdom was full of Bee People and was hive themed.
resolved old anime Anime
Okay this is a long shot but I'm talking about an English dubbed anime I watched in the Netherlands at some some point in the early nineties, though it is probably older than that. It is about a spaceship captain who has a ring that can somehow supercharge the weapons of the ship but it can be used once a day, one episode they used energy from the energies to make it look he was using his ring and scare the enemies of though that apparently almost caused the weapons to overheat and explode. Also in the opening the captain talks about how his best friend was kidnapped and brainwashed into becoming the villains'leader.
resolved Angelique Anime
An anime with a ridiculously, RIDICULOUSLY long title. I don't remember much, but the protagonist is a girl called Angelique. There was also a white haired guy with heterochromia that, with the exception of his eye color, looked exactly like her lost love interest (he had brown eyes). Angelique is chosen to a mission involving building/reconstructing an universe or something similar (as I said, I don't remember much) but didn't want to. Then something happened that made her change her mind.
Edited by Linfiaresolved Fighting on a cake (solved) Anime
I remember a scene of an anime about a 2 guys fighting over a cake...literally on a giant cake.
And I remember one has the power to transform sugar into electricity.
Edited by ElBuenCuateresolved *This anime thanked international fans for piracy* (SOLVED) Anime
I can’t remember the name, but I remember reading Wikipedia a while back and this page was about an anime that was "too good to last".
It mentioned how I the last episode, the crew thanked all the people outside of Japan that watched it illegally. All I remember is that it’s from the 2000s.
Edited by TropeFanaticFanresolved [Solved] anime-esque show about talking fishes Anime
I'm not really sure if it is an anime, but it did air in Hero TV, a channel from the Philippines that primarily aired Filipino dub anime and cartoons, and the show had an anime-esque feel to it. The main character of the show is a goldfish, his best friend is a green turtle, no flippers the normal cartoony look of turtles, and two other characters, a pink jellyfish girl, and a blue seahorse, he had arms and one episode involved him under the command of the bad guys, one of which was an evil sea dragon, and that in a park there were fish statues that turned to live fish, one of which was the jellyfish girl, and were ordered to spit out gold that they accumulated from the day when the park had visitors. Not sure how it ended, but the seahorse and jellyfish joined the goldfish and turtle, becoming friends.
One of the main plot lines that I remembered was that the four had to collect these scales to defeat the evil sea dragon, which I remember another episode where the dragon tricked the four into fighting each other by asking (while disguised) who was the best out of them. I think the title of the show involved the word "bubble", but I could have mistaken that the song is the one with "bubble" in the title.
Edited by Animaltamerresolved Anime about fairies. Anime
What I remember of this one is that it was an anime about this small chibi fairies that helped human kids on their problems (it was not FOP). The male fairy had what looked like a blue pajama and his hat looked like Kirby's Bomb hat in the old games and the female fairy had pink hair.
Update: Solved as well. Answer was Mirumo de Pon.
Edited by megagutsmanresolved An anime that starts with a nameless student getting ran over Anime
I only saw the first episode, after which I got sidetracked by another show that was coming out at the time, and now that I've been reminded of it, I can't for the life of me remember what the series was called or what the actual premise was.
All I remember is that it heavily involves (if not outright revolves around) an Absurdly Powerful Student Council, and, early in the first episode, there's a scene where a random student is shown taking some apparently incriminating photos, only to be unceremoniously ran over by someone who was either a member of or was hired by said Student Council, all so they could retrieve and destroy said photos.
Edited by HyperKunoichiresolved Anime with a girl fighting two colorful monsters Anime
When I was younger, I watched part of a scene from an anime randomly on TV, but I never learned what the name was because it was a random scene. There was a girl who saw another girl with her parents. The first girl was then chased by then couple, and all of a sudden, these slimes emerge from the mom and the dad that form into two demon monsters with long claws (one red and one blue), which caused the parents to collapse; apparently they were being possessed by the monsters. The girl fights these monsters, but then the monsters embrace and fuse into a larger purple monster. So the girl fights this thing with magic or something and destroys it, and this causes the girl and her parents to wake up all better. I tried to search for it, but I couldn't find it. What is this anime?
Edited by SilvershadeWolfresolved Slice of Life Child Star Anime? Anime
When I was younger I was watching this show but I can't remember it's name. Here's what I remember about it.
- It's main female lead was a young girl, middle school age I wanna say. Generally upbeat and nice. I think she was an actress of some sort? I do know the main hook of the show was that she was a child star of some sort. - The male lead was around the same age. He was surprising edgy up to and including self harming which the female lead found out about early-ish in the series. I forget why he was doing that. - There was a tiny car featured either in the opening and/or in transition scenes. I think it was orange? - I think the female lead had a large family who generally were used for comedy? - The show had to have been released before 2016, I suspect it was released during the 2000s but am not certain on that. - I think it was also a very long series, 50+ episodes. - It might have been based off of a manga
resolved Romance Anime (solved) Anime
The anime is about a girl who falls in love with a Gentle Giant after he saves her from an sexual assault (I think).
Edited by StalkerGamerresolved A guy turns into a monster when kissing a girl and chomps her in half. Anime
There's this rather old anime. I remember a scene where a seemingly Ordinary High-School Student is kissing a girl on a park bench. The screen fades to black and moments later unfades to a view of the bloody lower half of the girl's body. Then the guy's view pans to hos hands turned into hideous claws. Switch to a view of him now as hideous bulky creature. As he exclaims "What the hell is this?" the upper half of the girl falls out of his mouth.
Edited by sohibilresolved Press-ganged into Doing a Hero Show (SOLVED) Anime
Mid-2010s or later. Most likely Manga Time Kirara style.
I only watched the first episode or two. In the first one, the Four-Girl Ensemble go to a department store for some reason, but they get strong-armed into putting on a Tokusatsu show on the rooftop. It had a little stage with an audience full of kids, and the roof was surrounded by a chainlink fence like on a typical Japanese high school. I think the girls are aspiring actresses or something, and this is what lets the main character overcome her stage fright.
I thought it was either Hinako Note or Maesetsu, but it's not either of those as far as I can tell.
Edit: It was episode 4 of Aho Girl. I think I got it confused with Maesetsu or something too.

I'm looking for a mecha anime, it aired during in the Netherlands but I'm not sure how old it really is. Here is what I remember there were three pilots with individual mecha. Naturally they combined in the regular way where each robot transforms either the arms legs or torso and head but they also had something I think was unique.
There was a fourth mecha separate from the three individual ones and they basically flew into from an opening in the back and transformed into their limb modes before it closed up again. Both combined forms typically required all three pilots or at least two of them to control.
At one point the pilots of the mechs that formed the arms and legs were in trouble without mechs and were saved by the four mech combined form assuming the remaining piot did all the work. In truth a support character, who I think was being trained as an emergency replacement for any of the three and who had messed with the settings of the mechs to make it easier for him, was acting as the second pilot.
