MadaraUchiha said:Saiki Kusuo no Psi-nan doesn't have an over-arching story. It's really episodic. And, I watched Hyouka a long time ago, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have an over-arching narrative too. Many gag anime I've seen don't have one. Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun is also one. I also love all these three anime.
yaoifangirl said:in hyouka, a detective episodic thing exists. just like mob psycho,drama.
MadaraUchiha said:Yeah, well, it's just that I assumed he's talking about an over-arching story. All of these anime have a plot. It's just that they are structured in an episodic way.

yaoifangirl said:then, may be i didn't get his post. if the episodic way is what he is looking for, then just anime, with no other plot is detective neuro nougami, mob psycho. i like episodic anime personally.
MadaraUchiha said:I don't too. I'm just assuming. I've never watched any anime without a plot. Or anything, for that matter.
MadaraUchiha said:I guess what he's talking about is an over-arching narrative. So, pretty much every episodic anime doesn't have a 'story' according to his definition.
Demon_skeith said:There's still a story there, usually they default to a daily struggle of the main character enduring the other people in the episodic based series. Something might not come out of it, but relations usually are advanced which creates story.
