Anime Discussion What is the most informative anime you ever watched?

[Mashiro Blue]

I'm currently watching Dr. Stone and I'm impressed that they mention a lot of RL scientific facts and formulas/reactions, as well as some scientific historical facts. What anime have you seen that reaches that level of veracity?

[Yoho]

Cells at work!

 

[MonsterKaido]

Hmm. Can't think of one tbh. I already watched lots of science facts vids.

JoJo's concept of spin was interesting.

 

[Zoinks52]

Otaku Elf has a lot of facts about Japanese history.

Deer Girl Nokotan occasionally drops facts about deer but is mostly more fun-focused.

Africa Salaryman

 

[RiShin]

Toriko really went in depth with food science and animal behavior.

 

[Rej]

Yuru Camp very clearly.

CatW is there too, but Yoho already mentioned it.

 

[vikas]

Cells at work!

was going to say, none but yeah Cells at work does the job

There was this anime which was more on animal evolution.

Never watched Toriko or Cells at Work but the former seems interesting so I'll watch it sometime soon.

Yuru Camp definitely fits with camping tips.

Oh yeah definitely. It tells us a lot about Mainland Japan's Geography, which is pretty informative.

Also, in the beginning One Piece was quite interesting for all the maritime tidbits, like the currents, air pressure, atmospheric anomalies.

Detective Conan

Bartender Glass of God

One Piece

 

[Rej]

I must say, indirectly One Piece makes actually the most sense. Imagine all the stuff we as community have dug up from the internet in order to tinfoil and understand this behemoth of a masterpiece. And more is to come lol.

 

[AL sama]

to be fair every anime is informative one way or the other

for example

Spice and Wolf = trade and economics
Oshi No Ko = entertainment industry
Kingdom = historical warfare
Shirobako = manga production
No Game No Life = games
My Dress-Up Darling = cosplay
Slam Dunk = basketball
Food Wars = cooking
Great Teacher Onizuka = teaching
Gundim = politics

so on and so forth

Definitely. I guess there is a bit of everything if you search hard enough.

SHIROBAKO - Its show a real life part of the anime industries, where there is good thing and bad thing.Out of all 'Anime Industries' stories i've read/watch shirobako by far is the most realistic yet. It doesnt over-glorify anime making where the animator literally had a super power. It also doesnt over 'mocked' the anime industries by pointing out stuff like dead from overworked, black mail and you know... Sick, inhumane stuff.
