My Top 4 Anime Series~

Hello guys~ 
Sorry that I'm bad at updating often >n< I've just been somewhat busy lately (which seems odd, it being summer and all, but unfortunately it's true). So today I decided to do a quick post of my top four favourite animes, which I hope will interest you guys since I know that some of you out there are anime fans too :3

Fate/Zero

Intense art is intense

Fate/Zero is the prequel to the anime Fate/Stay Night, though it was made after Fate/Stay Night was made, which is odd. This however, results in an amazing art style, as well as a very cohesive well-done plot. The plot of this is a "holy grail" war, where seven people have seven 'servents' fight to the death in order to get the grail, which is a bizarre wish-granting device.

Definitely for more mature audiences, since there are some disturbing aspects to it, but overall I think it's an incredibly made anime. It's dark, it's intense, it's sad, the art is fantastic. It's also that very rare type of anime which has no high-school students! :D But yes, an overall fantastic show. I just finished it recently, and am trying to restrain myself from watching it yet again.

Madoka Magica

Pretty fan art~

It feels a bit odd placing this after Fate/Zero, since Fate/Zero is really dark and mature and Madoka Magica is a shoujo, but this is fantastic. It's a 'magical girl' type anime (think Sailor Moon and the likes), but sort of on a whole different level. While the characters are really young and possess some of that child-like charm, the plot gets very intense and deep. The art is at times simplistic, but in some situations it becomes very collage-like and interesting to view. 

The plot is simple, of a young girl named Madoka who gets asked to sign a contract and become a magical girl and fight witches. It's much more complex than that however, but I won't spoil anything c; Don't underestimate it because it's a magical girl shoujo though; it's so much more than that.

Steins;Gate

Pretty art~

Yet another very good anime which surpasses the standards one sets for it. It's all science fiction-y and about time travel, though the primary focus isn't really that. It's also pretty short, if I remember correctly (then again, all of the animes which I watch are short since I don't like watching things longer than 24 episodes). I watched this last summer, and remember really liking it. 

Sword Art Online

Cover art~

This I think is a really common favourite for a lot of people, but I still like it a lot x3 In it, all of the players in a game get stuck inside of the video game, and if they die in the game, they die in real life. This results in a lot of tear-jerking moments when characters you've become attached to die, but by the end, it's a really feel-good anime. The second season was awful though. Don't watch the second season >n< Now they're releasing a third season, which from what I've seen, is very good <3 I highly reccommend this too, since it's not too serious of an anime, but also not completely light fluff.

So.... yeah! I hope you guys found this relatively interesting c: If you've seen any of these shows, tell me what you think of them <3

What's your favourite anime?
