Watch SGT. Frog/Keroro Gunso.

Hilarious anime that people need to watch.

Is Code Lyoko considered anime...?

Sadly no Code Lyoko was made in France. Anime is Japanese animation. However Code Lyoko is a great show and everyone should check it out.


As for anime. I recommend: (I might edit as I think up more)
Mushishi ( Like pretty much everyone here)
Wolfs Rain. (kinda sad, not sure how popular)
Mar (Not sure how popular but it is a fun one)
Puella Madoka Magi (I don't think that one is very popular because of the art style. Just watch to the third episode if your not sure about it)
Elfen Leid
The Higurashi series
Loveless (Not for everyone! Probably very well known, Manga is much better.)
XxxHolic (Not sure how popular)
Wolf Children ( Very good movie. Must see. Made me cry)
Future Diary ( surprisingly not to well known I think.)

-Myself;Yourself.
Starts out totally cliche but takes interesting turns in the story.

everytime i see any "underrated anime rec" i think of this bc this is actually extremely underrated but it also has a meaningful story. anyway i second this.

also prince of tennis, samurai champloo, toaru series (well not that i know whether it's popular bc i rarely find anyone that's watched the series), and uhm tengen toppa gurren lagann

Depends on what you like. If you're not picky about it and enjoy some heavy humor, I'd say Detroit Metal City and Desert Punk.
If you're into smooth romantic shows maybe Onegai Teacher is your cup of tea.

I think some people here have no idea what "underrated/unpopular" means, lol.

I just found one yesterday! It's called Tamako Market! Loving it! It has the same aesthetic as Chobits kinda. It seems to be hand drawn which tends to be more nostalgic for me and the opening and closing themes are the best! Usually I bypass openings and closings, but I happily listen to these while waiving like a little kid n_n

Also Free (Owatobi Swim CLub) <--- now sure about that part, not sure if it is overly popular though.

I love an anime called The World God Only Knows and feel it is a really good anime, it just doesn't have loads of followers because I don't think it is very well known... Or it could be and I've just not noticed.

It's so cool, the main character is awesome and I personally love the whole video game nerd theme, a kid who plays dating simulators all his life suddenly makes a deal with this cute demon (by accident) and ends up being forced to romance girls in real life and make them fall in love with him to free ‘loose souls’ from their hearts. It’s all super cute and the series is just lovable.

It's pretty well known, but everyone hates it except me and I'm just like "Danganronpa (the anime) isn't bad!"

I loved the show and yes I played the game. Both are 10/10 but like you said it's pretty well known xD
