Btw, Can't watch that last one.... judging from the title. Gotta mention this before I go: I'm a minor (17), so just know that before you post. :)

Maybe bold it or something to separate it from the rest.

That's alright, it doesn't really exist anyway.

well, you don't have to get it NOW! you can always get those 4 - 5 years from now... ;)

here one i was given

Urotsukidoji
legend of the overfiend and legend of the demon womb

I couldn't possibly say what the best is. But if you just want a list,
Full Metal Alchemist
Chobits
Mahō Sensei Negima
Nadesico (if you can find a subbed version anywhere let me know)
Slayers
Lain

Ones that I have watched that I enjoyed:

Gto
School Rumble
Black Lagoon
Noir
Elfen Lied
Princess Mononoke
Full Metal Panic Fumoffu

There's probably some more but I can't think of them right now.

I'm going old school here but I've always loved Space Battleship Yamato (aka Starblazers). It was extremely cutting edge for its time.

Cool Devices was better...
:p

Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust.. I actually have that on my computer. Not as high-res as I'd like it to be, but pretty cool.

Cool Devices was better...
:p

have you watch the one i said
here it's got R18+

For sheer philosophical value, Ergo Proxy, Serial Experiment Lain, and Noein all deserve a mention.

Not as old as other stuff, but each of them really great peices of drama.

Wind Named Amnesia
Cat Soup

That's alright, it doesn't really exist anyway.

I did mistake "wicked city" for some hentai series.

My personal favorite is "The powerpuff girls versus the humongous phallic tentacles"


Can I assume Legend of the Overfiend was mentioned as a joke?

have you watch the one i said
here it's got R18+

No... read about them. If I got it now, my parents would be less than jubilant with me. Maybe a few years from now, I'll check out the Overfiend one.

We'll see what happens.

i watch them once and never played them again
oh they both on one DVD the one i was given

have you watch the one i said

how else would I know Cool Devices is better. ;)

Urotsukidoji has its share of action and bloodletting, but Cool Devices is pure Porn.

i bet i can't get here dam it

TG'd.

I have alot of favorite animes... None of the older ones though, I guess I don't like the animating style. Or maybe I haven't seen enough...

Top 5, anyways:

Full Metal Alchemist
Azumanga Daioh
Death Note
School Rumble
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

TG'd.

Send it this way too, pl0x.

*thinks* what have I seen that I liked

Cowboy Bebop
Any movie directed by Miyasaki
Ghost in the Shell (the movies and the series)

*thinks* what have I seen that I liked
Ghost in the Shell (the first movie and both seasons of the series)

second one not bad too

Just check my name to find out the one on the top of my rather very extensive list.

Trinity Blood was disappointing... Really.

Azumanga Daioh
The Melancholy of Haruhi SuzumiyaDon't you just love Chyo Chan!


and did you get the meaning behind the "next Episode" announcements?

Send it this way too, pl0x.
Here you go
err... how old are you? ;)

Trinity Blood was disappointing... Really.

Lol, don't make me send my legions of vampiric Methusalah after you to drain you dry.

Trinity Blood is, IMHO, a very interesting show. I don't know about you, but, IMO, it seems to need at least some understanding of the subject material to get all the little nuances. Or do you not like it because of all the biblical and Roman Cathlic references?

oh another good series is Full Metal Panic.

Here you go
err... how old are you? ;)

For the purposes of taxes, I'm Methusalah. You get deductions for given Methusalah porn.

second one not bad too

I don't doubt that, but I haven't seen it. Maybe I'll add it in anyway.

if i had the money i get both but i don't

Lots of good anime have been mentioned. However I'm surprised nobody has yet mentioned Ranma 1/2 or the Dirty Pair.
:D

never heard of them sorry

never heard of them sorry

You never heard of Ranma and Dirty Pair?!?:eek:

Ranma 1/2: A martial arts student and his father are cursed when they practice at an ancient training ground. now when the boy is dowsed with cold water, he turns into a girl and hot water restores him.

Can you imagine what his promised wife will think? that is, if they both knew about the marriage arraingement...


Dirty Pair: Kei and Yuri are WWWA's (World Work Welfare Association) top trouble consultants. the Lovely Angels. however, due to their rather... heavy handed tactics (they blew up their First Planet in the first half of season 1.) they are saddled with a name that strikes fear in the hearts of all, guilty and innocent alike... the Dirty Pair.

Ranma 1/2: :eek: :)

Dirty Pair: destroying a planet is all ways fun

Series:

Cowboy Bebop

Golden Boy

FLCL (Furi Kuri), close second

Perfect Blue, drama

Urotsukidoji, hentai

Doesn't his father turn into a panda?

Tsk....tsk....tsk...

So far, everyone has failed to mention really good anime, besides Grave of Fireflies.

- Fushigi Yuugi
- Ayashi no Ceres
- Shojo Kakumei Utena
- Angel Sanctuary
- Ouran High Host Club
- FAKE

I would say Neon Genesis Evangelion. It's the closest I've seen in anime (or popular culture at all for that matter) of something intellectual. Admittedly, it has a lot of flaws, but it's the only time I've Kierkagaard referenced in an anime. I also liked Elfen Lied and think it might also qualify as one of the better series.

Ranma 1/2: :eek: :)

Dirty Pair: destroying a planet is all ways funespecially when it was a planet they were trying to save from a civil war. *nods*

Doesn't his father turn into a panda?yep...
and Xian Pu turns into a cat,
Musu (Moose) into a duck
Ryoga into a piglet
Pants-taro (underwear Taro) into a... well, you gotta see it to believe it...

and there is a witch that turns into Akane. ;)

I do voiceovers for Japanese anime here in Singapore...I didn't personally work on any of the ones ya'll have said, but I know the people who did dubbing for Fullmetal Alchemist and Gundam. Lol....so weird.

Has anyone heard of Hiwou Senki? Or Pretty Cure? Lol...pretty cure is just plain BAD anime, but Hiwou Senki's not half bad.

*shuns*

It's not anime.
How so? Not all anime have the absurd tear drop and fall over when stupid shit happens stuff.

It has a coherent, in-depth, and progressive story; it has Asian mysticism inspired back story and fighting styles and besides that has regular fighting. How is it not anime?

My nominations for best anime are:

1) .hack//sign
2) Haibane Renmei
3) Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi
4) Remaining Ghibli titles joint fourth (including Tonari no Totoro)
5) Chobits
6) Inuyasha
7) Akira
8) Appleseed
9) Aa Megami sama (original 5 not the wierd newer series)
10) Pokemon (because it keeps my son occupied for hours)


votes for worst:
Fist of the north star
Urutsokidouji
Guyver

?!?!?!? :eek:

If you like Ryvius, then check out Stellvia of the Universe.

Already did. I liked it quite a lot too, just doesnt consider it as good as Ryvius.

What I liked about Stellvia is that it had two distinct archs. First, the character development and daily life of the students, and second the Second Wave deal (if that was its name, its been a few years since I saw it).

They should´ve had made a second season, like they did to Crest of the Stars (Seikai no Monshou)

Macross was good.

But to me, Southern Cross was better.

I was 12 when I discovered Robotech, it was on the same timeslot as Battle of the Planets -- oddly enough!

It was around before Robotech, about the same time as Star Blazers.

To me, the three are the "Trinity of Early Anime".

heard of Astro Boy

My trinity of Anime is
1) Galaxy Express 999
2) Ikku-san
3) Mach Tiger Go!

*Sigh* the memories...

Best anime ever?
Got to be AKIRA. Nothing beats that - it's just like from a different world (like FFVII for rpg's)

However, the following are neat to:

1. NGE
2. X (this comes pretty close to AKIRA in the mood it carries, and it's the only CLAMP anime/manga i like)
3. Perfect Blue
4. Jin-Roh
xyz. propably some more I forgot.

Here are the ones i forgot:
Gundam Wing
I also loved Digimon when i was younger.

Recently, i saw one on TV called "Soul Taker" - i heard of it before, but thought it wasn't worth paying any attention to it. Then, i zapped into it, and i was amazed. But anyway, it won't appear on my list.

And, just for passing time:
................./°
DB / DBZ (^_^) Boo!
is good too!

And GitS!

Anime is animation from Japan. Avatar is not from Japan, jokes on /a aside.

heard of Astro Boy

Yep. Even saw it a couple of times. Didn't like it.

No one here has read the manga or see any anime by Watase Yuu?? :eek: You sheltered people you!

I wanted to read Fushigi Yuugi.... :(

I'm allowed to read it now, but I don't have the money to get that along with other things I buy/bought (cell phone bill, iPod deals, Lost seasons 1 & 2.... it goes on and on)

BUT I WILL READ/WATCH IT!! *does a jig of triumph*

Okay, I'm a little special.

Bible Black.

Bible Black.

:p

The best anime ever is Cowboy Bebop because it’s the only anime that I’ve ever witnessed come even close to appealing to those who normally profess to hate the stuff.
The whole Ghost in the Shell franchise is good as well.

Every other anime I’ve seen, including some that I’ll admit I really liked such as Full Metal Alchemist, become intellectually insulting at one point or another, some more often than others.

You won't be disappointed, but do yourself a favour and watch it in Japanese, with subtitles in your language if you don't understand Japanese, because the dubbing is total shit.

Isn't subbing the only way to do it?;)

I'll try to get a hold of it when I have money to spare. Thanks!
