resolved Gatcha manga Anime
As the title says I'm looking a gatcha manga. It is not an isekai and it is set in the "real" world. The mc is incredibly stingy and lives with his two younger siblings. Somehow he gets acces to a gatcha machine that uses cash and he pulls a girl from it. I don't think it's action more comedy but the girl's solution to everything is to try and get the mc to use the gacha machine until he gets rare item that fits their situation while he makes her use cheap items that still get the job done instead
resolved shounen manga about magic weapons from god Anime
I'm looking for a manga people gets weapon from god as do demons. Humans level by fighting demons while demons get stronger by killing humans. The mc gets a lowranking sword while his childhood friend gets a powerful weapon and is immediately recruited by a party. The MC sets out on his own and it turns out his sword can steal the ability from other weapons, whether they are owned by humans or demons. I'm pretty sure his sword is described as being more like a demon's weapon than a human one
resolved Sick town origin story Anime
I remember this episode of an anime I caught while channel surfing, the main gist of it is that this pair of guys are trying to help the children of a town be cured of their illness, at one point trying to steal medicine (they get caught but a friend of theirs managed to get the medicine anyway). So the town gets the medicine, but a bunch of the kids sold their medicine so their parents could have food to eat. Pretty much all the kids die, I think the girl who helped them get the medicine also died? And one of the guys breaks because of this. By the end of the episode it was all a flashback and the guy who broke, now an antagonist (?) visits the other guy who was at the graveyard where all the kids and the girl are.
resolved Final Fantasy Series Anime with a frog episode Anime
I remember watching this episode of a Final Fantasy Series, where one character somehow got turned into a frog and needed a kiss to turn back to normal and warn the others of the ship. He managed to turn back to normal after narrowly avoiding getting eaten by a lady who wanted to eat him as a frog.
resolved 2 manga Anime
As the title suggest I'm looking for 2 manga.
The first one is about an mc who is given control over the worst part of a kingdom/empire and just wants to live as comfortably as possible. Since he is worried about an uprising he uses his healing magic (which I think only nobles have) on the populace and ends up being mistaken as the chosen hero who will lead the commoners and overthrow the corrupt nobles despite another character actually fitting the ideal better
The other one is an isekai. 2 kids get sent to a different world where one of them ends up with incredibly strong fire powers by imagining gas exploding instead of the normal burning wood others think off when using fire magic
resolved death game comedy Anime
I'm looking for a comedic death game manga that features female lead (possibly with a butterfly motive) that hosts death games only for the same person a kid from a rich family to end involved with and win the game without anyone dying. One time he wins a game where the players have to pick a leader by promising to pay all the other contestants if they vote for him
resolved looking for manga Anime
The manga was definitely created after 2015. It is about a bunch of artificial humans, one of which decides to protect the male mc from the others in exchange for him letting her eat him after his 18thteent birthday

resolved What anime does this image come from? Anime
A friend of mine sent me this image, and neither of us know what it's from. To be clear, I can tell that it's a variation of the "I'm Not Calling You a Good Boy
" meme, but based on how the character dresses, I believe it's from an anime/manga. They found it on Twitter if that helps.
resolved Music anime I watched with my cousin several years ago Anime
So this is about to be the vaguest description ever but bear with me:
I swear it was a band anime of some kind, with the main love interests playing guitar and piano respectively.
The guitar guy was introverted and the piano girl helped him come out of his shell. There was one scene where the guy wrote a song for the girl and played it over the school intercom so she would hear it.
I also explicitly remember a scene where the girl tried to [play her instrument/write a song/something related to music] only to stop because of nervousness or something and say "nani?" I remember the nani part VIVIDLY but I can barely remember context.
resolved Witch makes guy pull of panties scene? Anime
I haven't the first idea which anime it could ve, because I saw this long ago on Youtube.
What happened was that a guy and a girl were in some bedroom, discussing something. Then he couldn't control his body and stumbled about, before falling around and, somehow, grabbed her panties. Even though she had a skirt on, and then he sort of fell, pulling off her panties and seeing up her skirt.
He got a nosebleed, needless to say. I kinda remember there being a noise like a party horn, just a funny detail.
After that, the exposed girl quickly stepped off, and then she noticed another girl through her window. A witch with a voodoo doll, the one who had been controlling the guy. I dunno if she was out to steal underwear for something or just fooling around. There might've been a third person in the room with them. And I remember her visible crotch was obscured by a ray of light or such.
Can someone please help me, cause I just can't find it. Going crazy here. 🥲
Edited by Pepsilovin-pikaresolved Manga about collecting elemental people and also two brothers??? (SOLVED) Anime
So it's a manga about a girl who is like the princess of a kingdom or something. There's two brothers who vy for her affection and they're rivals. But something happens and she needs to collect a bunch of people who have elemental abilities to save the day?
There's also a plot point about, I think, the girl having a sister put in a coma and also one of the brothers did something evil but it's okay and he's forgiven. I ate that shit up when I was 14.
I think it's a 3-volume manga. I tried to find it at my local library but it wasn't there.
EDIT: I figured it out, it's Time Stranger Kyoko!
Edited by MissRobotoresolved Kids' anime series about three ghosts. Anime
Somewhere in the 90's there was an series for kids featuring three little ghosts. One of them was a chef and a Big Eater, one was a girl and I don't remember about the last one. I also have a feeling that the series was divided into three arcs - one dedicated to each character, but I'm not completely certain.
Ring any bells? Keep in mind that the series is about 30 years old.
resolved Anime retelling of the console wars featuring Captain Ersatzes of Sega and Nintendo characters. Anime
Title says it all. I remember that pretty much everyone that wasn't human in their source material is humanized in the anime, that the protagonist is basically human-Sonic, that a Tails expy dies, that the intro features a humanized Kirby that doesn't appear in the show proper and that the main antagonist is a Mario expy.

I remember watching this anime on animax when I was young, it was about a girl in a family that owns a shrine. She can see spirits and can go to the spirit world, among the ones I remember are a trio of familiars, one was a little girl in a furisode outfit, and two animal-like ones, and another human sized spirit who sometimes possesses a friend of hers. At one point, when she touch her brother(?)'s money, the images turned into monsters, becoming worthless. At some point in one episode, she and her familiars were being chased by armed men, and she had a talisman that slowed down time around those people but she could move normally.
