I just had to make a thread with this.The laughs from this anime are more than enough considering the abnormal screening time of the episodes(around 13 minutes).The humor is kind of blunt but it's nice.
Synopsis from anidb.net:
Souichi Negishi is a shy young man who came from the rural Ota Prefecture to Tokyo for college and wished to become a kindergarten teacher. However, for some reason he became the singer and songwriter of a metal band named "Detroit Metal City," with a stage name "Johannes Krauser II." Whenever he wears the heavy makeup, Negishi becomes a completely different person, shouting the most vulgar profanities beyond anyone's imagination. With the popularity of DMC increases, Negishi starts worrying his double personalities can have negative effects on his (romantic) life off stage.
Though it may go to far for some of you,it's a really nice watch.
I like the anime. It is a bit messed up though, and this is coming from a metal fan. I do have a couple of bones to pick with the anime though. For one, people who watch this series who do not know anything about metal will assume that it is all black metal (i.e., it is all about demonic forces, etc.). The other thing is that I have my serious doubts that anyone who is like he is will be any good at metal. Generally, you have to like it at at least one point or another to play it well. So, I have my doubts about that. I do like the theme song outside of the lyrics. It kind of reminds me of a combination of a Japanese Slipknot and Meshuggah. Overall, it is a good series so far.
when i watch this it makes me depressed. okay not depressed i just feel very sorry for the guy. he just wants to play some nice music that his mom would like, not these crazy pesticide lyrics
Although this technically does not count, some of the music for Touhou is incredible. Also, I must admit that the whole K-On! Death Devil bit was good. X-Japan is just classic as well. The OSTs for Kurokami, Fairy Tail, and Needless are awesome. High and Mighty Color is good. Too bad that they are breaking up. Galneryus and Maximum the Hormone are in there, too.
