Seeking Anime Recs
Am in need of feeling cheerful, so please rec me shojo (or shojo-ish) anime, or I guess what I want is anime with a not!male protagnoist.
I'm using a loose definition here, like I would classify K-ON! as shojo.
Basically: I want to watch some anime that isn't necessarily mindless, but stuff that isn't emotionally draining.
I keep holding off on continuing Puella Magi Madoka☆Magica or rewatching Utena or Evangelion because I'm afraid it's going to agitate some issues going on right now.
Things I've seen that are in the vein of what I mean:
Ouran High School Host Club
Honey & Clover
Fruits Basket
Love*Com
K-ON!
Azumanga Daioh
Saiounkouku Monogatari
Victorian Romance Emma
Super GALS!
Gokinjo Monogatari [If anyone knows where/how to find this, let me know! I can't move past episode 3.]
Shoujo-ish things I've watched or tried but don't care for:
Stellvia of the Universe
Pretear
An exhaustive list of All Anime I've Ever Seen (no really) is here.
Bonus points if the anime is available in the U.S. - I like using Netflix/the library if I can - but that is not required.
If you've recced something before, it's okay to do so again, :)
Series need not be brand new - there are a lot of older/classic series I've never seen.
ETA: For LJ'ers also seeking similar recs, there are more recommendations at the LJ mirror of this post.
