Fair enough.
This might be a hot take, but I don't think the Peter Jackson movies are that good of adaptations of the books. Don't get me wrong, they're great movies, but they're way too fast-paced, in my opinion (and yes, I understand how ridiculous it sounds to say that 4 hour long movies are too fast-paced).

They are great movies, I just don't they're great adaptations if that makes sense (though, there likely won't be any better ones made, ever).

Aren't the movies considered better then the books by people who have read and watched both?

I don't know. It probably depends on which you experienced first or which kind of experience you prefer.
I also never said the books were better than the movies, just that I don't the movies are great adaptations of them (which is to be expected, you can't cram these books into three movies without making a ton of changes, and that's fine).

It is anime-esque smh.
The main seasons are all very anime in terms of presentation and tropes. But there are adult oriented seasons that have less tropes and are played seriously.

Never heard that consensus. Books are flat-out also among the best novels ever written. Problem is, on average, books tend to be better than films. So a top end book is better than a top end movie, broadly speaking.

Do you not think that a show only being an anime in its tropes, in fact, makes it the most wretched anime suggestion of all?

We should have a thread titled Feed Me Your Wretched Ovens Suggestions, which is just trying to sell media to people in the most asinine, not-blatantly-incorrect-but-holy-shit-why-did-you-have-to-put-it-like-that ways possible. Aka Ovening.

It makes it a wretched suggestion, it does not make it an anime suggestion. You can call your dog or whatever a human in all ways but shape but it's still a ******' dog.

Promised Neverland
Genre: Thriller and Mystery
You probably won't watch it.
Based off of what you have highlighted in bold in your post, it seems like you are into Seinen/Adult and Dark Fantasy genre's mostly.

Yeah I think he's the type of guy that would most enjoy a story like, say, Kingdom, Vagabond, Berserk, etc.
Especially since he's a fan of stuff like DOOM, and he did straight up say he was impressed by Berserk iirc.

No, it's an older manga/anime about a medieval world. I don't know much else about it, but people say it's really good.
