What is your go-to Anime whenever you want to feel cozy and warm inside? I loved Toradora back in the day, and I am trying to find other anime like it. I also watched Golden Time and Horimiya, and they were both good as well!
I saw this last year because I happened upon it on netflix: Rascal Does Not Dream Of Bunny Girl Senpai. It’s a bit horny, but it does have a lot of slice-of-life scenes and moments.
Yuru Camp! Just cute girls cooking and camping.
I’ve rewatched it 3 or 4 times. My other go to for cozy is Girls und Panzer.
We still go with K-On. Girls doing cute stuff and being kind of stupid is just great.
- Hidamari Sketch
- Lucky Star
- Non Non Biyori
- Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou
- Gochuumon wa Usagi desuka?
- Tanaka kun wa Itsumo Kedaruge
Hidamari Sketch is very underrated and is much less well known than it’s contemporaries like Lucky Star, but it’s basically the comfiest thing ever. Any CGDCT/SOL could work for this (Nichijou, Yuyushiki, Kiniro Mozaiku, K-ON!, …) but I specifically chose shows with a slower tempo.
Came here to say hidmari sketch if no one else had. But to add a lil more; the anime is created by shaft my OG favorite studio. They’re the makers of: bakemonogatari, modoka, 3 gatsu(march comes in like a lion), kino no tabi movie, maria+holic and some others that are popular but i didnt care for like sensie negima, nisekoi, and dance in the vampires bund.
I have been watching Sayonara Zetsubou sensei lately. Also Pani Poni Dash! is an interesting watch.
For me Nichijou, Hyouka
Aria the Animation
Barakamon. Super cozy story of a man moving to a small island and learning/improving while interacting with the locals (and a bit of a rascal child). Great series. I’ve rewatched it several times.
Sweetness and lightning
Single dad and his young daughter cook yummy food together.
She sings a song about sharks at some point. I’ve seen it 3 times and it’s so nice and wholesome.
Shirokuma Cafe (polar bear’s Cafe).
I always go back to this when I want something cozy. It’s kind of weird in that it has alot of global ideas but it takes it at such a relaxed pace it ends up being a pleasure to watch.
My Neighbor Totoro and Castle in the Sky.
Well you definitely have a list of bangers there
