Avoiding seasonal anime might make finding those easier

You could dub just a lot of modern original anime as someone's passion project. Pic-related was technically released alongside a mobile game, but it sure as hell didn't feel like an advertisement.

No. All anime became an infomercial to sell something else.
Your best bet is pre-2000 anime.

I know one.

If only S2 never happened. At least he's still working on fun stuff though

Thunderbolt Fantasy.

These two really.

There's also the thin line where you could argue that OPM S1 and Mob were passion projects or at the very least, the staff had a lot of fun making them.
I would include Kaguya-sama too.

Jashin-chan felt like a great throwback to 2000's comedy anime
Make sure to buy 50 copies

Define modern. Also: pre2000s was just as much book/manga adaptation territory as the 2000s are.

tell me what you consider to be "passion" projects first.

Don't worry user, I got your joke. I do legitimately like most of their shows though.

OPM S1
Flip Flappers
Megalo-fi Box
Maid in A Bus
Houseki no Kuni

There's been quite a bit, and plenty more that I haven't watched, just try things that are divisive on here - if user likes it but user hates it, chances are it doesn't fence-sit or race to the bottom, and it probably has at least a little soul.

That's as may be. But Nishigori was doing the anime about getting seduced by an older delinquent girl that he had wanted to make, rather than just continuing to mass produce idol shows.

Uma Musume is full of soul.

Poorly paced story filled with filler and redundancies. Art in the manga is nice

All anime are passion products, the b industry itself is just soulless

It would have been good if it were actually about that. But what the fat fuck actually did was insert his own cuckolding fetish into the show and make it about nothing but that.

This one. At least it felt like something with a soul

Mob had a lot of passion and effor, they even made Reigen sexy

Flip flappers is one of the few that come to mind.

Honestly pretty typical anime can be better than anime that tries to be different or deep. It depends on the staff really more than anything else. Lately I'm having better luck with more standard anime.

Lose some weight.

Gain some self-respect and stop being a cuck.

Yes, the vast majority of them actually. Just because you don't like something that doesn't mean it's "soulless" you fucking retarded Yea Forumsermin piece of shit fuck.
