Unique Genres For The Newbie Anime Reviewer

By Estelle Larsen


The universe of animeshoon has many types that are not usually found in other works. The western side of the globe might have offered you dystopian and post apocalyptic films, but anime has more than just those. Manga has stuck to its very own culture.

If you are an avid watcher and have noticed certain patterns in many shows but can not put a finger on it, you just might have missed the exact label. Here is your chance to learn about other genres if you are still a new anime reviewer. Let us skip the basics and go with the specifics.

Films that have a pilotable robots in the center of their story are known as mecha. These robots could be gigantic, humanoid, or even a set of small ones combined to form an ultra mega robot that can destroy its enemies. They are generally at war with each other or are fighting off evil.

Romance has two sub genres while they might sometimes be closer to hentai, the pornographic equivalent in anime, but can be distinguishable. Harem features a male protagonist who is usually shy and awkward and surrounded by archetyped females vying for his affection, while a reverse harem consists of the opposite. Ecchi refers to work that has sexual content but do no go as far as graphic sex, and is usually humorous with the sudden groping and nudity in their scenes.

Cute, barely legal girls can fight crime and evil. But when they do, they usually transform into some kind of a superhero with costumes and makeup and headdresses. It is not all war and violence, though. The magical girl anime genre will still uncover the daily life of the transforming heroine, including her relationships in love and friendship.

Idols are defined as uber talented celebrities. The idol genre focuses on stories about someone with very humble roots who rose to super fame, often accumulating many skills and talents. While they can be considered as slice of life tales, they are specifically centered about winning power or popularity with a ton of fans.

Living things that almost look like very cuddly animals are actually trainable monsters, and they are the central characters of monster battle movies. Card games can become a real life deal between life and death with card battle animations. These are perhaps the most popular and familiar kind, and they are often paired with game merchandise.

Tales with lesbian couples as main antagonists are identified as shoujo ai while male homosexual love is shonen ai. Shonen ai literally means boy love. They are subgenres of romance and are aimed towards children, hence the toned down double entendres. If you need to go pornographic, look for yaoi and yuri. Yaoi are for boys while yuri are for girls. Hentai is the overall porn industry of manga, and this is where tentacle fetishes came from, and they have very little or no storyline at all.

There are subcultures dedicated to each form of anime, and infiltrating them will help you become familiar to the works. But perhaps the most helpful hint in actually determining the genre is to know the target audience of the show, as for example, shonen ai and shoujo ai are for young boys and girls while yaoi and yuri are for adults. Their alternate universes are cues and their characters are the giveaways, but the real deal is about for whom they are intended.
