Green Legend Ran

Kenshi vibes

More hidden gems (once again, only ones that rank below 2,000 in 'Popularity' on MAL).

Check out part 1: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/5953

The criteria here is simple: Anime released in 2001 or earlier, with under 25,000 MAL Members, and which I've rated a 6 or higher.

A rating of 6 counts for this second Obscurities list given the increased obscurity. A 6 is still an alright score. I've excluded anything that's particularly well-known, like Speed Racer or Voltron, despite both meeting my criteria.

It is perhaps worth noting that I rate things entirely on gut feeling. It's just, "I like that, that was good, it gets a 7.", that's the whole process. I can also find enjoyment in just about anything and there's very little that bothers me.

More anime dubbed by Ocean Productions Part 2.

This stack includes the remaining TV Shows as well as the OVA and specials they dubbed.

Some of these are questionable, like Suisei no Gargantia can be argued to be fully sci-fi, but there is a feel to it that makes me include it, along with organic and archaic elements that are woven together in a way that makes this appear more fantastical than your average sci-fi. Similarly, Gankutsuou is sci-fi with advanced technology, but it's futuristic imagery is conceptualized to cohere with the elegant 19th century setting of Dumas' novel. I'm also avoiding the inclusion of more than one entry per series, so if season 1 is on here, then season 2 likely fits just as much.

Titles that I might add:

The end of the world has always been one of the most fascinating settings in anime. Whether it is a ruined city overgrown with nature, empty wastelands full of danger, or societies barely hanging on, these stories take us to places where survival is never guaranteed. Post apocalyptic anime capture both the silence of destruction and the resilience of people who refuse to give up even when everything seems lost.

This stack brings together 50 anime that explore what comes after the fall. Some lean into action and chaos while others slow down to reflect on humanity and hope in the middle of ruin. Each one shows a different vision of how the world might end and how people choose to live on when it does. If you enjoy bleak settings, tough choices, and the strange beauty of worlds after collapse, then this list is for you.

A list of all of the anime that aired on the 90s SciFi Channel's Saturday anime block in the US. They are listed in order of their debut.
