Slayers but Gourry isn't a complete moron? (Iirc that was more Anime only, and LN he was smarter ). I'd even like an expansion of the verse like Lost Universe.

Old af, but, The Irresponsible Tyler
Escaflowne - with modern animation and a full orchestra
Galaxy Express 999 & Captain Harlock
Vampire Hunter D
Big O
Escaflowne - with modern animation and a full orchestra
Much of the original soundtrack was recorded by the Warsaw Philharmonic, if I recall correctly, so it's already had the full orchestra treatment.
Two things pop into my mind at least.
- Tokyo ghoul. I want a FMA brotherhood reboot. They would only need to do the second season really. (I know, very original)
- Votoms. I just want this in some modern graphics. I feel like a reboot of this series could gain some popularity currently. Less “real robot” series more gritty military Real Robot
Another season of One-Punch Man.
I'd like to see Pumpkin Scissors and Zipang completed up to the ends of their respective manga (although Zipang was controversial enough that it might be really difficult to get it made). Likewise, Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi up to the end of the light novel series. And, just as an extra, it would be nice to see the last arc or two of Ghost Hunt make it to anime, although that would have to be an OAV as I'm pretty sure it would make six episodes max.
Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor – i remember something big started to happen at the end of season, so i wish there was a second season. Also can mention: The Ones Within.
Serial Experiments Lain was weird enough I wouldn’t mind more.
Armitage
Somebody already mentioned it but Air Gear.
Read or Die…It had a series but I never got to watch it. I’ve only seen the OVA’s. So this is probably just a ‘I should watch that’…forgot about it.
I like your taste internet person! Armitage would go soooo hard in some modern graphics
I need Hyouka S2.
Captain harlock
Outlaw Star.
Hmmm, a number of very weird ones come to mind first...
- Shangri-la (2009)
- The Third: Aoi Hitomi no Shoujo (2006)
- El Cazador de la Bruja (2007)
- Real Drive: Sennou Chousashitsu (2008)
Maybe because I had too much time to watch obscure stuff back then, and I love me some rare animus. Then again, they all weren't all that good, probably why they only had one season. And it's all female-led sci-fi I just noticed, shows my preferences...
The Third is an underrated gem.
Hear me out: Lupin III vs. The Third
No game no life
Charlotte. Just a reboot would be cool to see or maybe same universe different characters.
Deadman wonderland
That one... With the city and the eyes... Fuck what was it? Blood blockade battlefront! I loved the setting and world building.
Ouran high school host club
The Guyver
Baccano! was really good, I wish it hadn't ended where it did
I'm sorry everyone. I'm going to wish Berserk back again. Maybe next time it'll be good
This!
Claymore
Claire hot as well
Gantz. I really love that idea of the dead world on the other side of our reality.
"K-On!" sequel pls 🥺
Also, "Gangsta." did not deserve what happened to it. Same for "So I'm a Spider so What?", although it's rather recent.
And why do all the titles that come to mind have freakin punctuation in them?
High-school of the Dead
No Game No Life
Tower of God (just rewrite the whole thing with the same premise)
With High school of the Dead 's story author's death, I don't think it will ever come back. Even the manga was cancelled.
Ghost Stories. Specifically the dub.
"A dub like that?? In this day and age? What are you r*tarded??"
I second this with Shin Chan AS dub. If only the director didn't die n a skiing accident who knows if it would have still kept going
I would normally remove comments using the r-word, but for those unaware, this is basically a paraphrased quote from the Ghost Stories dub that was mentioned. It was definitely a product of its time and would never be able to be made like that today.
It's definitely... questionable in it's content choices. I'm autistic and a member of the plus sign mafia. I'm not personally offended by any of the content, but there's definitely stuff for a wide variety of groups to get mad at. It's very 2000s. I don't know if it caused any harm, but I don't get the feeling that anyone meant for it to. Honestly, I unironically enjoy it. Maybe it's better that it's never coming back though.
Full Metal Panic. It’s one season away from being finished.
Golden Boy
Honestly, even though it's already a masterpiece, it would not hurt my feelings to see a reboot of Chobits.
Give me two new seasons with new art, maybe explore some more of the storyline or something.
Failing a reboot where they redo it with modern art techniques and everything, maybe there could be a parallel line, or pick up where it left off and give us one additional glorious season of Chi taking her rightful place as the persocom empress of the world or something.
Air gear
Deadman Wonderland. Likely a reboot more than a second season
Also a bonus; Ebichu. Please. More raunchy adult animated comedy anime please. What happened with that genre??
Space Brothers had the first 20 something volumes turned into a fantastic 99 episode anime, but in 2014, they caught up to the source material so stopped. It totally deserves a continuation, as there's another ~20 manga volumes out now.
Well, assuming that a modern remake or continuation can manage to recapture the magic of the original and retain its style:
Bubblegum Crisis (NOT Tokyo 2040)
What's considered "older" anime?
Imo, pre-2012. I think you could also argue that 2018 or 2020/2021 is the start of the modem era of anime, or even 2006.
I don't think I want to see any of the answers to this question
Me neither ... Wait.
I'd love to see more G Gundam but it's hard to imagine them actually doing that. They released a new novel though so maybe...
I just want my HG Nether Gundam kit. Is that too much to ask?! Maybe a HG Cobra Gundam too, and a RG Nobell Gundam to match RG God Gundam?
NGNL.
My answer to this used to be Panty + Stocking, but they have a new season coming out on my birthday!
I guess now my pick is 009-1. I really love a good East vs West rivalry, and having a femme James Bond doing espionage in a world where the Soviets never collapsed really hit a lot of notes. I gets pretty weird towards the end, and I wish they had another season to go even weirder.
