[Fantastische Hure]

What are other series like that? Even 20th-Century Boys has super-natural elements.

Death-Note has tons of fantasy elements & I heard 20th-Century Boys does too. Paranoia-Agent too

Spoiler

in the end.

Also I mean with an over-arching story-line, like Monster or Detective-Conan (to an extent).

To be fair, a completely grounded in reality series will seldom be as interesting as one with supernatural elements.

 

[Classic Adamas]

Also on that note, Pluto is getting an anime!

Really? I feel it’s the opposite, especially if you bring-in actual history too. You can use real logic and it being something that could really happen adds to the creepiness.

Did you watch Astro-Boy?

Can you think of one though? I guess Monster is pretty minimal in that regard.

 

[Classic Adamas]

Few episodes as a kid.

Yeah. That’s the one I thought of. I think it’d be kewl if Anime used that type of story more, but I guess they think Live-Action might as-well do it.

This is the opposite but, I recommend Billy Bat

What was that again?

What was that again?

A guy (American I think?) Who served in Japan at some point makes a comic about a bat detective that solves crimes and finds those crimes in the comic happening in real life. He realises that his bat was unknowingly plagiarised by himself from something he saw in Japan and decides to go find out the origins of it

 

[Fantastische Hure]

Very interesting. Bat-Meng

Detective Conan seems like a good choice.
