The Goal of the "Let's Watch Anime" thread is to bring together the community (even "casuals") to watch a lesser known anime series together and through discussion share our reactions towards it. We will have a new show selected to watch every two weeks and the genre will very greatly. The shows that will be selected will have met the below criteria:
- Any genre
- Lesser known titles (Not SAO, One Piece, Gintama, etc)
- Under 14 episodes total
- Not already aired on Toonami
- The shows try to avoid outrageous and/or sexually offensive themes
- Shows can be underrated and good, or could be trash; let's find out together
- Let's have FUN with this!
First up:
Humanity has Declined: (jinrui wa suitai shimashita) (8/4-8/18)
Genres: Fantasy
Synopsis:
For years, declining birth rates have forced what's left of the human race to cede more and more territory to other beings who have appeared to take advantage of the emptying ecological niche. Now, only a handful of humans remain among the remnants of civilization and Earth is dominated by faeries tiny, ten-inch tall creatures of surprising intelligence. But humanity's importance isn't over quite yet, as young Watashi learns as she makes the decision to return to her hometown and assume her grandfather's position as an arbitrator between the races.

Basically, the section on piracy & copyrighted material in the Terms of Service applies here to anime as wellThis has been happening frequently enough lately that I just wanted to throw out a friendly reminder: solicitation, discussion, and linking of pirated material is prohibited. This includes illegal streams, torrents, aggregators, fansub & sub group discussion, links to websites containing entire anime soundtrack albums magically for free, etc. Use common sense here. Discussion of legal, ethical, and economic implications of piracy is okay.
