I don't think anyone who thinks Johan is "literally them" should be allowed to walk the streets freely.

[alexandercatz]

I love the variety in here, from more masculine stuff like berserk to more atmospheric stuff like lain. Who knew literally me could be a teen girl or a super buff maniac with a giant sword?

[panforomelet]

A space cowboy, a broken man, a young boy who forced to save the humanity, a girl who questioning life, the strugglers, a junk dog, a detective, a monster, the man who change a timeline, the brave one, he who seek a true justice, robot with heart and the idol
Old anime is something else

This edit actually shows how much of the good shows were back in the time in the 2000's and 90's that we can actually relate to them than the current mc who is just a random 15 year old out here saving a world

Best characters ever

[jingbot]

So, given the ending, this is a confession that you stabbed someone right?

[katlyndobransky]

I was never big into anime, until I decided to get into Cowboy Bebop and Berserk during Covid. Stuff like that is life changing
Edit: I love the anime community :) please ignore the replies, y’all thin skinned asf

[WhisperWishh]

LAIN IS EVERYWHERE, LETS ALL LOVE LAIN <3

[yathercantillano]

Honestly the best curation of "literally me" characters I've ever seen. Including the female characters adds to the depth.

[astha_yadav]

Monster became my favorite show ever.
I literally have spent hours unwrapping, reading and thinking about the underlying philosophy, the symbols used and every scene, EVERY SINGLE SCENE - and dialogue - and interaction means something or adds to something, it isn't just there.
It's brilliant through and through and Johan became my favorite character because i was a HUGE people pleaser and i feel that hollowness of thinking you are just a ever changing mask and not an actual persona

[stoicbartender]

Spike is the Ryan Gosling of depressed space cowboys

[Tmtrnr]

Great edit, especially the correct/functional alignment of visuals with the beat is something that many editors are too lazy to do. I also love the choice of characters here, they do not fall into that grey zone like patrick bateman where he is 100% a psychopath and definitely not „literally me“, but the characters chosen are really great written characters.

[nebulittle]

I'm not the only one who misses old anime right. There's no filter and a lot of them have lessons that stick with you through life. Nodaway's its just isekai, isekai, isekai or some ecchi sh-t

[stanchern]

Since you included Texhnolyze along with the other masterpieces, I can claim you are a man of culture deserving nothing but respect!

[pluto]

The best "Literally me" in the world!
Your selections are great as well.

[dormin]

Shinji, Satou and Lain probably the closest to everyone

[smurRPG]

Welcome to the NHK is the most realistic show here to watch if anyone needs a recommendation

[sahirjofre]

Man that transition from Monster to Steins was fucking perfect

[camronpoindexter]

I just finished Welcome to the N.H.K. a few days ago because I saw it in this edit. Oh. my. god. That show is literally one of the best animes I have seen in a hot minute. The soundtrack, the overall vibe of the show, the descriptions of anxiety and depression that Sato shows, and the relationship that him and Misaki build with each other overtime is immaculate. I'm so upset that show isn't more popular than it currently is. Thank you so much for including it in this AMV, I discovered it because of this video.
