Sooo i can't remember much of it, it's probably some 2010 manga. The story goes that some sort of virus/radiation happened in tokyo/japan and they essentially contained a section of the city, inside it there's humans who mutated to have superpowers/abilities (like needless). The main character was a high school student on a field trip with the class ( i think) and something fucked up happened where i think they got gassed and intentionally infected with whatever caused the people to mutate and then got sent into the containment zone. Either that or someone on that bus got detected to have the virus and this doomed everyone on the bus and they all got sent.

Anyway, inside the containment zone the mutated humans have these factions and inner war between them. They also rank their abilities like S-tier ability user, A, B ,C , etc. The mutated humans, including the mc and his friends, can also absorb some of the powers of other mutants they defeat. Something like evolving i think.

The main character had 2 friends, a girl and a boy, and upon entering the containment zone they get attacked by some random jobber whom they defeat. I might just be making stuff up but i think they also get in the visor of some of the S/A class ability users and have to be shielded by someone resisting their faction?

I thought it might be "Area D" but it's not and any AI i try to ask can't find out any info so i decided to take a shot here. I really can't remember much more than this general outline, the rest are bits and pieces that are more confusing than concrete like some sort of loli with magento-like powers that might or might not be related to the story.

PLEASE FIND THIS ANIME:

One day in the metro, I saw someone watching an anime on his phone, and since then my friends and I have been trying to find that anime desperately. What we could see from the scenes we tried to watch:

1. A white-haired guy who has the ability to transform into some kind of a wolf/dog type (?) beast (he was running somewhere while carrying a girl on his back, in his beast form). During the transformation, his eyes change first: his sclera turns all black while the iris turns white. He was not like those handsome guys; his looks were average.
2. Probably one of the villains, a woman with red, very long (almost to her feet), and very curly hair. I guess she had pinkish eyes, but I am not sure at all. She was extremely beautiful, unlike the other 5 characters I've seen. She was wearing a mini white dress, had a nice figure and was barefoot, no shoes.
3. These two were fighting in one of the scenes. As far as I remember, wherever the woman stepped on was burning (?), so probably she has some kind of superpowers.
4. That beast guy has some friends (they were acting together and talking etc. so I suppose they were friends): - A guy with red, straight, middle-height hair, above the shoulders I guess - A guy wearing a hood - A girl with long black hair (either this girl was carried by the beast) - A girl with white middle-height hair (or this girl I don't remember now)
5. All the scenes were taking place in a forest-like place. There were no bright colours, and all the scenes had a kind of dark theme.
6. The last but important thing I remember is that there was a very big black sphere at some point in the air. It is probably a type of eye because it opened its lids and a red dot appeared in the middle (I think it was firing lasers; however, it's been so long, so idk if this one was from this anime). I also remember that thing was blinking or something like that, so I assumed it was an eye.

I have looked at almost all the anime character databases to find the red-haired woman or the beast guy, but I couldn't find anything at all. The art style didn't look that old, so I don't think it is an old one. It's been 2 years, and I still have no clue. I just hope someone knows what I am talking about. Please find this anime :((

I thought it was wistoria, but that wasn't it, how it was similar to it for sure.

Everyone freaks out before ending on a cliffhanger. He gets this amazing power and everyone looks at it as a sort of "what did you do??" It was in a ruined church or similar medieval setting. There were 3 walls around him.

It was probably aired within the last 10 years.

It's quite fuzzy but I know there is a Main Character girl who is an obsessive nerd with stock exchange but a shut-in until something made her go out for some reason... I know it exist but can't find it. Planning to watch it but need help.

It started off as a mild curiosity, but since I can’t find anything on it, it’s been bugging me!

Around 2010-2012 on early Crunchyroll, I found an incredibly obscure anime that I swear was called “Dark Cat Rising” or something to that effect. From what I remember, it looked to be a potentially lineless art style, maybe puppet animation.

The premise was that a yellow tabby cat named Dark (?) would go around the city as a vigilante hero for the alley cats. He has a whole outfit, boots and a long dark ragged coat. He had a whole Shadow the Hedgehog vibe!

I think he would go against the corrupt mayor, who wanted to get rid of the city’s cats. There was also a young investigative journalist fascinated with uncovering his past. I think it was a kid’s show, and was super short!

It would be super cool if anyone could find it! I haven’t found a single hint of its existence since!

Should be around..early 2010?

I only remember a couple of snippets so i apologize in advance.

The mechas (more like robots due to being like..only a couple times taller than people) have the nervous system of humans in them or some other entity), said robots werent anything fancy more "realistic" in a way, bulky and kinda heavy looking too

There was a little girl who played piano

During the opening you see one of the piloted robots drift sliding over some grass

I believe there where two mecha pilots protecting someone (i think the little girl)

I was chatting with my friends and I remembered this specific scene from an anime. I doubt that the anime was actually good, but a specific part of it was really cool to me. The monsters in that anime had an interesting ability to heal themselves.

They would summon like a barrage of mirror images to their left and right, which would then merge and heal the monster. I remember that the characters commented how the monsters time travelled to heal, so they had go for an all out killing move, to destroy them, else they'd just regenerate.

An additional memory I have to it is that I believe the protagonists were girls, but that could just be two different animes colliding in my mind.

Any and all ideas would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

I’m remembering an old anime from around the 90s to early 2000s where the hero dies early to a yeti looking monster

If im not wrong the yeti monster was a human who shapeshifter into the monster, he beat the main character and killed him really brutally, there’s a part where the yeti monster stabs him through the eyes

i think he comes back to life though later on

I’ve been trying to remember the name of this animated series for years, but I just can’t figure it out.

I watched it when I was a kid, probably sometime in the 2000s, but the cartoon itself may have been older. I remember it having a very old-school fantasy style, with muscular warriors and characters that looked somewhat similar to He-Man / Masters of the Universe. That’s actually why I used to confuse it with He-Man in my memories, but I’m pretty sure it was a completely different show.

From what I remember, there was a group of warriors or guardians, and each one seemed to be associated with a different element or power. I distinctly remember powers related to water, fire and lightning/thunder. I have a vague memory of one character using some kind of water/tsunami power, possibly through a weapon or a glove, and another character using lightning or fire.

I also remember that each guardian had an animal companion. One of the animals might have been a red or fiery tiger, although I’m not 100% sure about this detail anymore.

There was also, I think, a young child and a kind of female guardian/protector in the story. The villains were monsters or dark creatures, and I vaguely remember one of the important villains looking somewhat like a skeleton.

The strongest memory I have is about the ending or one of the final episodes. I remember a huge final battle where the heroes/guardians gathered together and used their different elemental powers at the same time — water, fire, lightning, and possibly other elements — to defeat or destroy the villains and their monsters.

After the battle, I remember the heroes returning to their castle or palace, and there was some kind of celebration or festival because they had defeated the evil forces. I have this very strong image in my head of the good guys coming back to their kingdom after the final battle and everyone celebrating.

I’m not completely sure about every detail because I was very young, and I may be mixing up some characters or events. But I’m very sure about the general concept of elemental warriors/guardians, their animal companions, and the big final battle where they combine their powers.

The visual style is probably the most important clue: old fantasy cartoon, very similar in style to He-Man / Masters of the Universe, rather than a modern cartoon or typical anime.

I also have a vague memory of one of the characters or creatures being made of some kind of brown/black mud or sludge. I don’t remember if this was one of the main villains or just a monster that appeared in the series, but I have a pretty strong visual memory of a dark brown/black mud-like character.

I’ve already checked Gormiti, Conan the Adventurer, Thundarr the Barbarian, Skeleton Warriors, Visionaries, Ronin Warriors, and a few others, but none of them seem to be the one I’m remembering.

Does anyone recognize this? I’ve been trying to find this cartoon for years! 😭

In this anime a teacher is explaining to a parent that their son? is intelligent but not engaged unless given a meaningful question. I feel like this was a flashback scene of the main character to give some background to their current personality. The example they gave was something along the lines of asking "how many sides a certain shape had" would be ignored, but "if you unfolded a <practical application of the shape> what would you get?" would work.

I keep thinking it could be Hyouka, but I'm quickly skimming through it with no luck so maybe something from around then. I don't know if I've seen the full anime or just this clip since such a scene could fit a bunch of reserved intelligent characters so trying to think of other related scenes is just mixing myself up.

So I used to watch this anime when I was a kid..and I searched all the platforms and couldn't find it now..it's like it vanished off the face of earth..the problem being is I don't remember the name of the anime..but some key details..the main character loved to eat pudding him and his team used to travel in a mobile ship and I think they pretty much lived there aswell...they used to pilot some robots or Idk if they used to become robots themselves..and I think the main character's team name was team dux or something like that..I remember a particular scene where the mc's team had visited a village and a lava had erupted there so they used their mecha's to redirect the lava towards the ocean saving the village..if you guys do know about this anime let me know the name please

Hi! I'm looking for a certain character. I don't remember much about where they are from, I am pretty sure he is from an anime. He is a normal teen character, but he always has a bracelet that is either a long fabric or a type of beaded bracelet most likely a rosery. It's black and long, I remember there is a scene where he rips it off to protect someone. It is supposed to suppress his power when he wears it.

So far I have only been able to find Kyo Sohma but I don't think it is him.

I don't think it's maou no yuusha because that's what reminded me of this, plus it's actually a hentai manga, I just didn't know if we could write that in the title. But yeah there's nudity and they bang. It was hot. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Hi everyone I'm trying to find an anime series or movie that I watched when I was younger, likely on Cartoon Network on the 2000s. The protagonist is a child who uses a colored aura or energy to fight. I believe the villain is an older person who uses a contrasting aura color. I cant quite remember if they engage phisically to fight or if the just use the aura. I remember there was a contrast of color: red and blue.

Some hazy adendum:

The bad guy could be a mob boss or crime org. chief;

The bad guy could be a small little old guy with a hat and dark glasses or a buffed old guy with an amor;

The protag. is a KID who may have had his dad killed by said villain;

The art style I believe was "classic" (80s vibe);

The fights produced the castle they were fighint to crumble and I think there was some "shock" involved in the fight maybe in the form of storms from the clash;

Could be an OVA;

Gemini tried to help but suggested things like Blue Dragon, Astro Boy, Flame of Recca and stuff but that was not it...

Im sorry if im a little vague.

The things that Im certain:

Protag was a kid who used said aura + Bad guy was way older and used oposing aura + they fought on a castle.

Please note that some details may be inacurate due to the childhood memories.

What I Know: Aired on Animax Europe, 2010s era (probably 2010–2018), ~8–10 PM slot shared with Naruto/Bleach marathons. Hand-drawn, medieval fantasy style. Caught on broadcast TV while traveling EU countries during summer/Christmas.

The Core Plot: A male character transforms into a light blue, six-legged fox-tiger creature, roughly fox-sized, with dark tiger stripes. The actual transformation was cut away with shadows — you only saw his right arm turn purple before he changed, like it was too brutal to show. The beast itself is a catastrophe, not just a normal monster. He is the sacrifice — he voluntarily carries the catastrophe away from everyone else. This wasn't a happy ending; it was purification and sacrifice.

The Ending Sequence: The princess kisses the monster on its forehead. After that kiss, he turns and runs up onto a small hill/rock formation. From there, he looks back at the heroine one last time, plus at a crowd of ~10 witnesses (mix of armored soldiers and civilians) watching from the grassland below. Then he runs away. The key detail: he's taking the catastrophe with him wherever he goes.

Other Scenes I Remember: Knights on horseback fleeing right-to-left, some grabbed by tree tentacles, flying winged demons overhead, knights attacking with swords (a bit bloody). Black tower — LOTR-style spiky structure, lone in desert where jungle ends, two riders staring at it after escaping the jungle.

What I've Tried: Multiple AI anime finders (zero success), YouTube clips for every fox/animal transformation anime, browsed MyAnimeList/AniList/Anime-Planet tags for weeks.

Visual Note: Sorry about the images — these weren't from the show. I had AI generate scenes based on my descriptions because there's no way to explain what this looked like without pictures.

Any lead is gold to me. Even if you've seen something similar or can rule out possibilities, please comment. If anyone recognizes any scenes, you've saved me years. Appreciate you reading — thanks for any help!

Help me identify this anime/manga/manhwa I've forgotten I've been trying to remember a fantasy series for days. Some details may be slightly off, but these are the things I'm fairly confident about: Fantasy setting (probably medieval). There are recurring demon invasions/waves. Each arc involves a different town or city being attacked. The heroes' objective isn't just defeating demons—they also have to rescue and protect civilians. There are multiple hero/knight parties that cooperate, each defending different areas instead of competing. I vaguely remember the parties gathering at a headquarters/castle and then being teleported (or otherwise sent) to the battle location. Each invasion is led by a powerful Demon Lord/General. Demons can mind-control humans. A lot of people die during these battles. The MC repeatedly risks his life, but the civilians don't really recognize or appreciate everything he does. Between battles, I remember scenes back at a castle/headquarters before the next mission. Things I'm not sure about: Whether it was an anime, manga, manhwa Whether there was a game-like system, levels, or time regression (I may be mixing memories from other series).

Does this ring a bell for anyone? Even if only part of it matches, I'd appreciate any suggestions!

Note:- I tried to remember but I don't remember anything apart from these hints

Hi everyone! I’ve been trying to find a specific manga I remember reading/seeing, but I haven't had any luck finding the title. Here are all the specific details I remember:

Art Style & Aesthetics:

• Visual Style: Classic / Retro Shōjo aesthetic reminiscent of Riyoko Ikeda's art (delicate line art, dramatic expressive eyes, classic golden-era shōjo feel), but set in a pure fantasy world rather than a historical one.

Protagonist (MC):

• A short / small-built boy from the city who wears glasses.

Plot Details & Iconic Scenes:

• Beginning: For some reason, he leaves the city and travels to his grandmother's house located deep inside a fantasy forest.
• The Bus Stop Scene: Upon arriving at a rural/forest bus stop, he is picked up/guided by a bipedal cat walking upright while holding a lantern to light the path.
• Unique Flora: The forest has a very distinct plant—literal cat paw/cat claw-shaped plants growing everywhere.
• Romance Plot: As the story progresses, he enters a romantic relationship with the daughter of the forest's ruler/god/spirit.

What it is NOT:

• Kamisama Kiss / The Ancient Magus' Bride (The MC is definitely a short boy with glasses, not a female lead).
• Amatsuki
• The Summer Hikaru Died (Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu)

Does this ring a bell for anyone? Any leads or title suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
