For people that like some drama mixed with action, I reccomend
Kino no tabi which translates to "Kino's travels" or "Kino's journey.

This is a short-story type anime, where each story or scenario concludes in 1 ~ 2 episodes. (short and crisp ^^)

It tells of the people and countries that Kino and Kino's companian: a talking motorcycle, (a bit of out-there-ness) Hermes encounter. Full of drama and some intense gun-fights. It also provokes much thought to what it means to be what we are. for example, is it right to kill another animal so that you can help another human being? are the human beings deserving to be saved? are the animals desevering to be killed?

It also is a what-if type of anime, with the different countries Kino enters, a country where the people do not have to work, a country ruled by majority, and a country where people are telepathic just to name a few.

Hope you guys check it out and like it as much as I did!~

Cheers!~

No... it isn't lame death note rules and they also use paper to fight... he he, well, if it has many fighting then it should go on action, if you could let me know that... and well if they use paper seems to be supernatural action... i'm going to put it in the first category for now

Action/ Superpower
-I personally haven't seen the anime but I love the manga, Flame of Recca I would highly recommend if you love Naruto. If you're looking for a lot of comedy and something episodic there's always the classic Slayers and the newer bishonen fest, Saiyuki, I'm not a huge fan of either but some of you might like. And if you want a series that will probably take the rest of your life to collect, One Piece. Another classics include 3X3 Eyes and Rurouni Kenshin.



Drama (Yeah, I love dramatic stories)... some of the are romantic ones
-one I highly recommend that's a shouji is Revolutionary Girl Utena
. There's also Planetes, if you like gorgeous girl love there's Maria-sama ga Miteru. If you like something that's dark and elaborate there's Texhnolyze. Now and Then Here and There is an overlooked post apocalyptic ball of angst


Mecha (action in with missiles big-ass guns and of course, robots)
-Rahxephon I'm amazed this wasn't mentioned! A gorgeous mecha series brought to you by Studio Bones who also did the Bebop movie, Escaflowne movie, Fullmetal Alchemist, and Wolf's Rain. Speaking of Escaflowne, Vision of Escaflowne if a bit of everything


Comedy (this ones w00tean)
-Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi
-Excel Saga
-Great Teacher Onizuka

There's also some movies such as Castle in the Sky, Cat Returns, Nausicaa, and Porco Rosso, all Miyazaki films. Tokyo Godfathers and Millenium Actress by the man who brought you Perfect Blue and Paranoia Agent. Akira the classic, Dead Leaves the insane head trip by the makers of Blood the Last Vampire. I think I covered all the good stuff, I have a list of DVDs I own and most of them are the must haves http://www.dvdaficionado.com/dvds.html?cat=1&id=angieness

It's a real shame how much Disney is dragging their feets with the release of the DVDs in the US... I want my $%!#$%!@# box set!

Just so you know Nausicaa, Porco Rosso, and Cat Returns were all in the Top 50 Video sales chart the week they came out. I believe that considering at Suncoast we couldn't keep them in stock :smile-big Nausicaa debuted at #14, Cat Returns #27 and Porco Rosso #49. Plus apparently Howl's Moving Castle comes out sometime this summer, it'd be awesome if they did another triple release! The sales should more than encourage them to bust out with more Miyazaki releases

Where can i get the Mai hime episodes

I added some links in the main post, you can check them, but like I know many of you are lazy go here:

www.static-subs.com that's for mai-hime only, if you are looking for other animes, check the main post for links

you forgot the ecchi section very good section if your going to add an ecchi section tell me and y will post all of the animes that i now :)

Well, links to that kind of content are forbidden, so I wouldn't know if it's ok to actually recommend that to any one (though I did forget completely about that genre... might be 'cause I haven't seen any of it yet XD)

Nope, but there are some facts that make me know that:

1.- Links where the latest addition to the post: "Last edited by grakul : Yesterday at 11:23 PM"

That most likely means two things:
1.- You didn't read that part
2.- You're too lazy to look for the series by clicking on the links

I don't see a section for Horror Anime. ^^

I'd like to reccomend NaruTaru, because while it seems to be a show about kids and their pet monsters (think Pokemon) it's actually VERY dark, and doesn't seem to fit into any other category besides Horror.

Of course, you won't know how dark till the last few episodes, so many people drop if RIGHT before those, thinking it's a kiddy Anime, hehe.

Could we add a Dark/Horror section? :D Elfen Lied (which I saw you put in Drama) could fit there, for the sheer bloodshed and dark over tone, as well as a few other series.

Twilight of the Dark Master
NaruTaru
Elfen Lied

Ok, this thread is going through some serious modifications, just as Deadbi_society said, I'm going to add two links to each anime (you better rep me for that):
1.- For dl
2.- For info
And I'm going to re-organize the categories:
* Action/Superpower
* Action
* Mecha
* Romance/Drama
* Drama
* Horror/Mistery
* Romance/Comedy
* Comedy
* Music
* Sports
* Adventure
* Movies
* OVA

Hope this makes this thread way better and more useful too

(I DO expect rep from you deadbi) I hope this changes will be done by tomorrow, It's a lot of work to be honest finding all the links, but I'm willing to do it, just try to be patient with me

Alright, here goes my recs for Anime.....

Action

Naruto

I shouldn't even have to explain this little peice of anime heaven. For those new to the series (IF YOU HAVE BEEN UNDER A ROCK ALL YOUR LIFE!) and need a little summary - Naruto is your basic 'hero-against-all-odds' action/super-power anime. It follows the life of Naruto, a ninja from the Leaf Village. Alot of action and even some seriousness mixed in.

Scryed

This is another awesome super-power action anime out there (which is now available on the american market). A new species of human, called 'Alter Users' have been created because of a strange occurance (WHICH I CANT SAY :P). Lots of action in this one folks

Samurai Champloo

Take the Samurai X OVA's and mix them with Cowboy Bebop and you'd get this little peice of heaven called Samurai Champloo. Besides is overall great animation and action, the soundtrack is also equally as great.

Drama/Horror/Serious STUFF

Monster

Want an anime that will make you think and scare you at the same time? Look no further because this on-going anime shall deliver. Following the trials and tribulations of Dr. Tenma, you are spun into a strange world of murder that has more twists then my curly hair!

Series Experiment Lain

I'm not easily creeped out, but Lain came close to it. I can't really explain this one for yah folks, its more of a visual learning experience. The depth taat the series goes into is great and even for 13 episodes it keeps you glued to your tv (Or PC you dirty leechers :P).

.hack//sign

Some would clasify this as a fantasy, when I really think it fits good under the drama/serious genre. You follow the problemic journies of Tsukasa, a player in the game called The World; who is trapped and attempting to find a way out. The ending really is a confusing mess, but hell I thought it was better that way.

Mecha! - Its gets its own Genre because it ROCKS!

Robotech

By far one of the best Giant Robot(Mecha) animes out today. Although this pretty package was founded back in the 80's, its storyline and action is on par with (if not beating hands-down) most Mecha anime out on the market today. A must for any Mecha Otaku's collection.

Macross Plus

An OVA mini-series based soley on Robotech. New animation and a some what coherent plot make this a nice addition to the Robotech universe. I suggest you get it after you've seen the original Robotech series.

Mobile Suit Gundam

Another 80's Giant Robot bonanza that started it all. This was the first in the Gundam Universe to start a linear series until its later incarnations. HAIL ZEON!

Gundam Wing

A spin-off of Gundam in which totally new mobile suits are presented, as well as a totally different storyline from the original Gundam storyline. It is good for those who dont/can't deal with the 80's animation.



I'll edit my post more when I get some more recs :)

No, this is not another "recommend me an anime" thread, it's kinda the opposite, this thread is to recommend anime to other ppl, so we can save all the "I would like an anime like naruto" kind of thread, so this thread works like this, I'm going to put some anime recommendations of my own according to the genre they belong, and put some examples of the genre so you would know what I'm talking about... YOU DON'T HAVE TO LOOK AT THE OTHER POSTS IF YOU ARE JUST LOOKING FOR A RECOMMENDATION, THEY ALL WILL BE ADDED TO THIS ONE

Action/ Superpower (Naruto kind of action, all of these ones have both comedy and drama on them)
* NARUTO (You are in NarutoFan forums and haven't seen naruto??... that's impossible XD)
* Full Metal Alchemist
* Bleach
* Chrno Crusade
* Tenjou Tenge (This one I hate it, but a lot of ppl seem to enjoy it)
* Wolf's rain (IF YOU VALORATE YOUR LIFE AS AN OTAKU BETTER GO AND CHECK THIS OUT!!! I MEAN IT!!)
* Mai-Hime (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED IT GOT REALLY GOOD IN THE LAST EPISODES)
* Read or die (A.k.a ROD)
* FLCL
* Flame Of Recca
* Slayers
* Siayuki
* 3X3 Eyes
* One Piece (quite long series, #1 in shounen jump... yeah, above naruto)
* Hunter X Hunter (nice)
* Bakuretsu Tenshi
* GetBackers
* Saint Seiya
* Scryed
* Samurai Deeper Kyo
* Tactics (fun series, and incredibly well seeded in Shinsen-subs tracker)

Action (A bit more realistic, so forget about earth cracking into pieces for one blow)
* Samurai Champloo
* Samurai 7
* Berserk (Kinda heavy for little ppl :P)
* Trigun (lots of gunfights, I mean, just look at the name of the series)
* Cowboy bebop (GOOD)
* Beet the vandel buster
* Noir
* Rurouni Kenshin
* Madlax
* Jubei Chan
* Jubei Chan 2 Revenge of the Siberian Yagyu
* Phantom
* Area 88
* Last Exile



Just wanted to note where you said no earth cracking into pieces. Actually in Rurouni Kenshin when Kenshin fights Shishio, on one of kenshin's attacks shishio blocks and his feet smash into the shattering the tile floor beneeth him. and also the attack Do Ryu Sen causes pieces of earth to crack and hit the enemy.

05-27-2005, 12:55 AM
drama - monster

ZeonNoMamono
05-29-2005, 01:23 AM
Action:
-Dragonball (not Z or GT, the former being good, the latter just sucking. The fights aren't that great in either)
-Bleach
-Groove Adventure Rave (Rave Master)
-Shaman King
-Full Metal Alchemist (Hagane no Renkinjutsushi)

Humor/Action with a side of perversion, and angst with hints of drama:
-KONJIKI NO GASH BELL (note: dub is Zatch Bell. Comparing the two is a waste of time, since all that is good of the original will be edited out. "Groping Breasts" (a characters theme song) became "Hey hey, Let's Dance All Day")

All in all, Konjiki no Gash bell is a WTF anime and most people would like it. Zatch Bell is seriously dumbed down, and the VAs don't compare...

Mystery:
-Detective Conan

Fantasy:
-MAR

Sports/Gaming:
-Hikaru no Go
-Whistle

RPG-type:
-Digimon Tamers (Season 3) (Truly the best of the four Seasons.)
-Legendz
-Medabots

Comedy:
-Comic Party
-FLCL Furi Curi (has lots of action. Too bad, only six episodes of anime and two (short may I add) volumes of manga)

Comedy-Romance/Harem/Bishoujo Humor:
-Tenchi Muyo
-Chobits
-DearS

DearS. 12 episodes (I've only read some of the manga though). Beautiful art, beautiful girls (:glomp Ren-chan!) used story (but it's the good kind) with it's own crazt twist, a slave/master thing.


Tha's all I got.

My recommendations:

They aren't in order of genre because I feel that genres are blended in anime.

Juuni Kokki (12 Kingdoms)
Chrno Crusade
Scrapped Princess
Samurai 7
s-cry-ed
Appleseed (movie, CHECK IT OUT!)
Paranoia Agent (one of my favorites of all time)

That's just what I've watched recently or am currently watching.

06-10-2005, 09:43 AM
Action/ Superpower (Naruto kind of action, all of these ones have both comedy and drama on them)
I'd like to add Gatekeepers (okay, so it's not the best, but kind of funny)
Basilisk (of course theys topped subbing it...)
and Shadow Skill (First animé I ever saw... Okay, it's really pretty bad but it's very... Typical.)

Action (A bit more realistic, so forget about earth cracking into pieces for one blow)
Witch hunter: Robin
Otogizoushi (Great series)

Drama
Hana Yori Dango

Mecha
RahXephon is THE best Mecha series ever. Bar none. Though I'd probably put it in Drama/romance more than mecha...

Comedy
Sakigake! Cromartie High!
Ichigo 100%

Drama:
1. Elfen Lied (its has a really deep meaning, has alot of action as well)

1. Mahou Sensei Negima
2. Love Hina (this is pretty romantic to)

4: Ichigo 100%
5. Azumanga Daioh

Action/Adventure
1. Naruto
2. Bleach
3. Samurai Champloo
4. Tsuba Chronicles

6. My Hime (drama/romance as well)
7. Noir (this was very well done, great music)
8. Wolfs Rain
9. Cowboy Bebop
10. Trigun
11. FUll Metal Alchemist

Music
1. Beck

Mecha
1. Gundam Seed/ Gundam Seed Destiny

Ones that hit me emotionally the most (like crying or almost crying)
Elfen Lied, Gundam Seed/ Gundam Seed Destiny, My Hime, Air, Wolfs Rain

Kimi ga nozomu Eien - Tragic Drama (this one can make you cry)
Azumanga Daioh - HighSchool Comedy ( excelent by the way)
Mai Hime - Action, Drama (starts a little slow but in the middle, the cruel part starts)

i dunno if you'll like my recommendations, but here they are anyway - :smile-big

Sports:
Slam Dunk - very funny! this one is a must-see, about basketball obviously.
Crush Gear Turbo - ok, this isn't even a real sport. and i know it's kind of "kiddie", but i enjoyed it.

Adventure:
Cooking Master Boy - i find this highly amusing, and it's about cooking! :laugh:
Pokemon - haha, i really liked this one. too cute.

Mecha:
Project ARMS - ok, i haven't seen anyone else who likes this one, but i do like the series very much. it's fairly short, only 52 episodes. there's an element of dark mystery in it.. in a nutshell it's about nano(alien)technology transplanted into teenagers by a criminal group.
Magic Knight Rayearth - 3 girls get chosen to save a planet from extinction, and they get to ride giant robots!

Comedy:
Cardcaptor Sakura - nice and light story. no real evil/ villains here.
Akazukin Cha-Cha - fun, fun, fun! cha-cha is a little witch, and her job is to protect the world from that evil sorcerer of sort.
Super Boink - i haven't really seen the entire series, but having a flying superhero pig sure is bound to be funny.
Saber Marionette - 'tis about robot housemaids (marionettes). well, i used to watch this when i was younger.

The first post needs some serious editing... by looking at the last page alone I can see it hasn't been updated since 29th of june... c'mon, this is an important thread and needs maintenance!

Some additions I'd like to make :

Sports
Slam Dunk! - Basketball anime, but with great humor and a lot of character development. One of my favourites.

Action/Superpower
Shaman King - The battle for the strongest shaman... a lot of humor and plenty of characters, power-ups,,, you should really see it for yourself

It took to long to read this threead my brain has mealted :blink

Ok did anyone mention macross plus and patlobour in the mecha section? Both are fantastic and well worth catching.

Roujin Z. Comedy? Action. Zaniess? The movie that hocked me into anime (and I cant get it on dvd :sad )

Boogiepop phontom in mystery. Complicated but rewarding if you work it out (im still trying to)

Hellsing, Mezzo, blue seed and Gasarkai well worth a peep.

Yu yu Hakusho. Get. It.

And in the crappy avoid! section:

Virus buster serge, zeorama, gundamn wing and scryed suck. Avoid

This thread is nice, certainly a good way to find new anime to watch, but you should elaborate a bit more on the descriptions of each series. Just a few keywords about each anime would help a lot. Just saying this because I'd like to find a few new series that are to my liking, but I don't want to be an annoyance by starting a new thread just for people to recommend me stuff (this thread was supposed to stop that, right?).

I'll be a retard and ask anyway, here in this thread. I hope that's more acceptable than starting a new, useless thread. What I'm looking for is something with action but also emotional depth, fighting but also romance, friendship and loss. Elfen Lied had all of this, IMO, but I'm finding it hard to get other series that has the same qualities.

I'd definitely recommend Pani Poni Dash! for comedy, it's ridiculously funny. The only way I can really think to describe it is Azumanga Daioh mixed with Excel Saga. Lots of parodies, too. (As of episode 13, there've actually been at least two Monty Python (http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y26/shamansanchez/foot.png) references, of all things)

Hey, I just watched it and I recommend Pom Poko under MOVIES. Its quite a cute, funny movie about raccoons that can transform into things... and they try and find all ways possible to get humans to get off their homes in the hills/mountains. It may sound kiddy but its not. :thumbs

I absolutely have to agree with the recommendation for Kimi ga Nozomu Eien. I just watched the whole series and I have to say it's excellent and I'm not sure I've ever cried that much watching anime before.

Definitely agree with Golden Boy. Golden Boy is the best comedy ever. F*ck all the new comedies out there Golden Boy is way better.

How can you make such a list and not have Seikai no Monshou and Seikai no Senki (Crest/Banner of the Stars) in it. I find such a thing to be unforgivable. Since I cannot think of a better place within your categories, I will say that it should be placed in drama. It would however have been easier, if you had made a category just called science fiction, instead of specifying it to be mecha.

OH well, as a mater of fact, the specific genre that you would classify this series in is properly space opera (which you would also classify a thing like Star Wars as, if it was anime)

11-19-2005, 03:06 AM
I would like to recommend Detectice Conan. If you love those anime/manga that involves cases solving, u just couldn't miss this one! every episode involves a case, and while you are watching, why don't try and see wether you are able to solve the cases before the detectives can? Overal it's a great anime with a combination of action + comedy + mystery + romance ect.

more info:
Creator : Gosho Aoyama
As far as I can remember, Detective conan have already reached a total of 50 vol. , around 400 episodes, and 9 movies

Explain to me why Samurai 7 is under "Action (A bit more realistic, so forget about earth cracking into pieces for one blow)." People were able to chop up mechs by just swinging a sword, and a character holds back a giant airship with his bare hands.

I don't know if it's been said yet, sicne I haven't gone through all 8 pages, but .hack//SIGN is really good, as well as Liminality, which was included with the games. It's a sci-fi anime, and can be kinda confusing, but it's pretty good. You can skip Twilight though.

slickcat
12-23-2005, 12:47 AM
well as for me its;
comedy- yakitate japan,excel saga(stupid),FMP fummofu.
action- hunter x hunter, getbackers, samurai champloo,FMA,bakerustu tenshi
romance-love hina,suzuka,midori no hibi
horror-none(vampiric animes if u call that horror,vamp hunter D,hellsing,trinity blood
adventure-tsubasa chronicle, trigun,chrono crusade,
fantasy- hack sign,berserk,karas(not complete though)

If you like drama type animes Kimi Ga Nozomu is one of the best. It's rated #1 out of 200 at animenfo.com. It's really depressing, but it's so good that you'll keep watching it until you finish.

If you like school comedies GTO ( Great Teacher Onizuka) is a great anime to check out. It's very funny and has a great dub.

If you like a mix of comedy, action, and drama Chrno Crusade has it all. Though it gets a little too serious later on for the comedy to fit in. Also if your the religous type this anime might offend you.

If you like old medevil action type animes Berserk is just for you. Though it is very bloody and the first few episodes are pretty gloomy you have to watch past episode 4 for it to start getting interesting. Also the ending is not really good.

if you like comedy mixed in with a little bit of science fiction Saber Marionette J is a good pick.

Action/Superpowers

Mai-Otome - The girls and guys are back at it again. Except this time, it's in an alternate universe with no direct relationship to the first Mai-Hime. It has more fanserver and the story is awesome.

Fate Stay Night - This is another good action anime. The first episode may be a bit slow... but the fight scenes are brilliant. I love the art and animation.

Drama

Shuffle! - This one is more of a romance/comedy. You will be hooked by the story, especially later on. There's plenty of ecchi in this anime.

Comedy

Full Metal Panic: FUMOFFU - This one is very hillarious. The first episode had me LMAO.

History buffs should give Zipang a try. A modern day Japanese SDF ship goes back in time and finds itself stuck in the middle of WWII, obviously raising a lot of ethical issues of what to do given their situation. Get ready to put up with a fair amount of Japanese nationalism though.

It's not getting much attention, but I started watching a few days ago on a whim and I think it's one of the better shows going right now. All 26 episodes have finished airing, we're just waiting for Digital-Panic to finish subbing.

Um I suppose this is where I make requests so...
I need a good romantic comedy, perferably with older teens to adults.
Maybie something similar to Ai Yori Aioshi, Love Hina, or Onegai Teacher. Although less harem, more romance but still funny... why does it feel like Im asking for a miracle?
Thanks for the help in advance.

I recommend Gintama. It's a new series with only 13 episodes out (and next to no subbing groups DX SOMEBODY SUB IT PLEASE!!!!) It's been a manga in Weekly Shonen Jump, and has 11 volumes out in Japan so far. It's a comedy that mixes traditional Japan with the future. Basically aliens have discovered Earth and have basically moved in and have taken charge to a certain degree (think current immigration situations in the US) the samurai were against their coming and many battles occurred until the government issued a sword ban forcing many samurai out of work. Out of a job Sakata Gintoki is a freelancer, with a violent sweet tooth and a Weekly Jump addiction, who will do any odd job for money. The anime is chock full of references to various series including Bleach, which airs right before it. Viz included a preview chapter of it in it's January issue of Shonen Jump, but never gave a release date, only a website where you could complete a survey on it. I really want other people to see it because everyone I've showed it to has LOVED it, and I don't think it gets the recognition it deserves. You can watch raw episodes on youtube.

Major
Chrno Crusade
Scrapped Princess
Last Exile
Eureka Seven
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

well i'm sorry if ya'll tired of these threads, but i really need a new anime to FOLLOW...
i don't really like serieas which are allready finnished, so i would like you guys to recommend a action (like naruto and bleach) comedy with maybe some drama in it, which is ongoing at the time, and that is probably going to be for quite some time..
i would also like if you hade any link to were to get it.

these ones i already have: Naruto, Bleach and One Piece.

if there is some anime which doesn't fitt in with my description, but you think that i would enjoy it (and that it's ongoing ofcours :P), don't be affraid of telling:P

Heh ... due to the fillers of both Bleach and Naruto (but i still watch Bleach filler ...). I went for some new animes, and i am glad i really did~ Currently the anime that is still currently active that i watch are:

1) Blood+ (gore, mystery, action)
2) School Rumbe 2nd Term (comedy)

Blood+ and Ergo Proxy are a definite check out for sure. Ergo might be a little more confusing but very cool once you get a hang of it. As for Blood+, real awesome stuff once you get past the first couple episodes.

Bah, I have no idea where to start looking for some new series but I want something along the lines of

Rozen Maiden (seen Traumend as well)
FMA
Wolf's Rain

Something with characters that you really grow to love... only to have things go wrong for them or they die or something (Berserk was a great example of this... wasn't sure if I hated or loved the author for what he did to the BotH) but it's been a long time since I felt any kind of empathy or sorrow for someone on a show dying or something tragic happening to them... probably been watching too much American TV and neglicting my anime viewing.

I want something where the music is kinda melancholy too, with pianos ftw... I guess I"m looking for happy loveable characters who horrible things happen to them lol.

Anyways, if you want to be extra uber cool, you'll pm your recommendations =)

Anime series everyone should see:

- Cowboy Bebop (greatest music and coolest characters ever in an anime)
- Hajime no Ippo / Fighting Spirit (funny as hell, great fights, check it even if you're not a boxing fan)
- Fullmetal Alchemist (best shounen anime, yes better than Naruto)
- Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu / The Second Raid (Havent seen the first FMP, but Fumoffu is the funniest anime ever and TSR is great as well, just more action and violence)

Currently watching:

- Black Lagoon (cowboy bebop wannabe that just keeps getting better)
- Innocent Venus (just 2 episodes out, but if it keeps the quality up it could become a classic)
- Project Blue Earth SOS (Only one episode out, but its 45 min. and it has some nice action and characters)

why isn't the Rurouni Kenshin OVA (Samurai X - Trust and Betrayal) on the list? It's one of the greatest masterpieces in the history of anime. it's a friggin shame, dattebayo!

I'm looking for a new anime to start watching and because I'm having some trouble finding one that I think I'll like I thought that I'd post asking for help...

Animes that I have watched and liked(In no specific order)
Zero no Tsukaima(Just started watching this but it's great so far :))
School Rumble 2nd Season
High School Girls
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Fate Stay Night
Innocent Venus (OK)
Love GetChu (Pretty good but very slow subbing)
Avatar: The Last Airbender ('American anime' it's ok...)
Ouran High School Host Club (OK but getting boring)


Animes that I have watched and haven't liked(In no specific order)
Bleach
The Third (It seemed ok at first, but now it isn't...)
Himawari
InuYasha
Soul Link
Tokko (Not my fav genre, though it isn't half bad)


Also, I usually like anime that has good animation, if the anime is old and/or has bad animation I will most likely not watch it.

So... Any suggestions? :amuse

I'm not sure if any1 mentioned this, but I recommend Hellsing Ultimate OVA!

Hi, I'm fairly new to anime series, so I was wondering if you could recommend some. I have seen and is currently seeing Naruto, Bleach, Gantz(season 1 or whatev), Full Metal Panic!(the first series), Full Metal Alchemist, DB, DBZ, DBGT and Ultimate Girls(season 1,lol:) )

Do you for example recommend Gunslinger Girl?
Anyway, just feed me with series you think is worth watching.

th0rn
08-24-2006, 03:12 PM
One Piece, Wolf's Rain, BECK, Gungrave...those are a few of my favs. Ive never seen gunslinger girls (its not my type of anime) but ive heard good things about it.

Hey, wait a minute. You missed out 'The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya'. That anime owns all. It's got the best animation quality in the world of Anime, together with a storyline that won its author(it was originally a novel) the Grand Award at the Annual Sneaker Awards. You can't miss out on this, man.

Heyyy

I really want to thank you guys for this topic. I was the type that only watched 1 anime at the time but thanks to this topic I was able to find several new anime's that I really love.

I really enjoyed the Comedy Anime's:

# Love hina
I'm currently watching this one, and i'm at episode 23.. so almost done.
# Midori no hibi
Watched the whole serie, so funny!
# The Melancholy of Haruhi
Really funny as well, gave me a good feeling that's for sure, watched the whole serie as well.

I hope you guys have some more recommendations in the Comedy sector.

- Thanks

Recommend me anime!

I'm in love with Ginga Densetsu Weed! I just started watching it the other day and it's the kind of anime that I've been looking for. The animation is nice and crisp and it's drawn quite well.

I like animals. I like animals a lot. I loved Wolf's Rain and I'm loving Ginga Densetsu. I'm also in the process of downloading Arashi no Yoru ni because it looks sooo cute. Hamutaro was alright. I also like anime with a plot and little to no fillers.

So, I'm looking for other anime that stars animals with a serious plot.
