I've noticed we're getting more and more of these questions.

I've seen anime X and really liked it! What similar animes are there for me to watch?

or

I'm looking for an anime about Y to watch, any suggestions?

or

What anime should I watch next? I'm bored and I like the Z genre.

So I think it's just about time we give it its own off-topic close reason, because apparently "primarily opinion based" just doesn't cut it.

So we're deprecating the very rarely used "Questions about making your own anime/manga" in favor of "Questions about recommendations".

The following phrasing is proposed:

Questions about watching or reading recommendations are off-topic because they tend to attract opinionated answers and clutter. For more information, see Should we allow recommendation questions?

This transition will happen in approximately a week, to let people voice their opinions/objections/suggestions/comments. This is the place to do it.

Answer this question with anything you've got, that includes, but not limited to:

• Suggesting alternative phrasing.
• Suggesting a different meta post to link.
• Objections (With actual arguments please)
• Comments regarding the deprecation of the "Questions about making your own anime/manga" reason.

Please voice your opinions!
