The criteria this time is no criteria. This is the final list in my Obscurities series. If there is any criteria, it's that I think you should watch these despite their quality, popularity, or even my rating, because you should see 'em. There's some good, some bad, and some real head-scratchers in here. It's mixed bag time in here!

This is a collection of anime that I think is important/useful, or just inspiring in terms of its animation. If you are looking to study animation or simply want to appreciate the craft, this stack is for you.

Animator's names of note to pay attention to regarding specific pieces.

I'd only say there are a couple here where it is a spoiler to know, so they will be at the end of the list. Let me know if you think I should change the stack to have a spoiler warning. But I don't think it's necessary.

Either way, these are various PA works that I think are interesting, some overall good while others lean more into their environment than anything else.

MAL can be inconsistent with music credits, but I'll try to list who was responsible for music, sound, etc., sometimes crediting staff members who aren't listed here as well. One could easily overload a list with nothing but Yuki Kajiura, Kenji Kawai, Joe Hisaishi, etc., so I'm trying to include no more than 3-4 entries per person. lol, I'll add more credits later.

ADV Films, the former incarnation of Sentai Filmworks, produced most of their English dubs in Houston, Texas. However, from the late 1990s until 2005, ADV also employed a secondary studio in Austin, Texas, known as Monster Island.

Monster Island could be considered ADV's "2nd-string" studio, as many (though not all) shows they dubbed were lesser-known and perhaps lesser quality. Shipping them to MI may have been a cost-cutting move, as many of the dubs are marred by fast-and-loose scriptwriting, questionable name pronunciations, and a general sense of roughness and inexperience.
Still, a lot of them had their own sort of charm, and some are well-regarded. You can find some comments about the dubs from me on some individual entries. Some may be approaching "lost media" status, or are not commonly available online by legal or illegal means.

So if you've encountered an ADV dub from the early 2000s and wondered why the cast was full of names you hadn't heard of, or why it felt different from the average ADV dub, chances are it was a Monster Island show.

*Note: some related/sequel titles dubbed by MI are noted only in the comments, in order to stay under the 50-item limit.

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:

All OVAs from 1983-1985 that I've found so far. This is the majority of them, but I'm probably still missing a few obscure ones, recaps, or miscellaneous releases. One notable OVA excluded from this period is Cream Lemon, on account of it being a hentai series.

Note: I've seen varying dates for Midori no Neko, which is sometimes listed as 1983. I'll leave it here for now.

Personal list of stuff to watch to get that 90s fantasy adventuring vibe. Break!! RPG is a TTRPG inspired by fantasy anime and JRPGs. Some entries might be from the 80s or 00s, because I'm a maverick.

First of all, sorry for my English, i can understand and read but writing isn't my forte (i can't even writing Portuguese well lol).

I want to make this list to help find new series to watch, instead of looking for more than 215 seasons.

My criteria were:

1. Popular; 2. Maybe Lost Gems; 3. Good parameter to be aware of the industry;

DISCLAIMER:

1. I don't have watch everything, but they were series i have faith or are good to understand;
2. I am not afraid to be wrong, so if someday i watch any anime in this list and find its bad or really doesn't matter at all, i will retire from this list;
3. If you know some anime that isn't in this list, you can tell me and i create a list called "lost tapes" and put there, but if i don't like it i won't been add;
4. I dont put remakes in this list or sequels, so animes like HxH 2011 or Urusei Yatsura 2022 won't appear in this list, but the OGs will;
5. Yes, this list HAVE SHIT ANIMES! (in my opinion, you don't know what is really good if don't watch some bad things) but don't worry, i just add bad things popular (like Platinum End, Hamestu Mars and etc); And last
6. My scores doesn't matter for this list, i won't put my personal opinion in this list, so there are animes i hate (like Sono Bisque Doll) but i know a lot of people like, so isn't fair i retire animes i don't like just for pride.

That's all i want to speak, i hope this list helps someone.
