Otaku Favourite Setting for a Show

Jiggly · 06-05-2016, 05:12 AM

There are a lot of genres of anime, and with that, comes a lot of settings for shows. These settings range from historical Japan to everyday town/cities to outer space. What's been your favourite setting?

I am really interested in beautiful scenery so shows like SAO where they made some really incredible outdoor like scenes, I felt very drawn by. Not sure if it's may favourite ever as there have been so many that I liked.

Some examples of what I like are below:

I do like the big open outdoor scenes, when done by good artists they look absolutely beautiful. The one thing that I like a bit more (but it's starting to get a bit old - I've noticed a ton of people have done it since Blade Runner did it) are the huge science-fiction cities - I don't really know of any specific examples, I don't remember the names of too much stuff I watch, but with all the lights and stuff it just looks nice, especially in the night scenes.

You know, I nearly included one of those. I like those too. But you're right, it's getting more and more common.

I like the scenes in no game no life, however i gotta say my favorite kind of settings are school like settings. I don't know why, but maybe its because i can relate to it more.

No Game No Life's setting was reallyyy awesome, and definitely my favorite. The trippy colors and kinda crazy 'Alice in Wonderland-esque' setting really made it for me. Still waiting for a second season though....

That's the thing, the makers haven't said anything about Season 2 at all :'(

Spoiler:Which sucks, because I really liked the direction it was going and wanted to see Sora + Shiro take over God and the world.

I really liked how Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu setting looks, it's alternative world called Little Garden.

I remember watching that! I have to say, if you were on drugs watching that... Well, you wouldn't need the drugs it looks so trippy.

Those actually look pretty good. Another game based show?
