Favorite Animes

[Rebirth0]

What are your favorite animes?

Mine: Family Guy, Fullmetal Alchemist, Inuyasha and some others.

[hEaLiNgViSiOnAnGeLicMiX]

What are your favorite animes?

Mine: Family Guy, Fullmetal Alchemist, Inuyasha and some others.

To Hans- I win.

Family guy is an anime? waaah?

Well onto my list of favorites. *points to avatar* Yes I do admit that I'm a sailor moon fan. I also love Card Captor Sakura (and I read Tsubasa so obviously I like anything remotely CLAMP) Initial D was good...got boring after watching each ep 10+ times though. My best friend Sherry recently started downloading some anime called 'Bleach' so I've been watching quite a bit of that aswell...that's about it I think :S

[Rebirth0]

Believe it or not Family Guy is an anime. I don't know or care why though.

[lightdarkness]

Family Guy is NOT anime.

[MetsPenguin31]

Gundam Seed

[Musical_Master]

Mine: Family Guy

XD.

Anyway, I don't watch anime. Whenever somebody mentions anime I think of characters with huge eyes, or retarded shows like DBZ.

[Tasuke]

Flcl, Candidate for Goddess, Samurai Champloo, and Ghost in the Shell: SAC
are my favorites for the time being

[hEaLiNgViSiOnAnGeLicMiX]

Mine: Family Guy

XD.

Anyway, I don't watch anime. Whenever somebody mentions anime I think of characters with huge eyes, or retarded shows like DBZ.

DBZ really isn't THAT bad, but whoever got their hands on dubbing it really messed it up good. All they're doing is paying the voice actors to scream for 2/3 of each episode.

[VashtheGunman7]

FLCL, Fist of the Northstar,Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Excel Saga, Outlaw Star and more I dont feel like naming

[emccky]

I like Fullmetal Alchemist, Inuyasha, and Cowboy Bebop is pretty good.

[Squeek]

I've seen far too many. This is hard.

Listing the obvious...

FLCL
Cowboy Bebop
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
Cardcaptor Sakura
Trigun (DUH.)
Excel Saga
Read or Die
Outlaw Star
Last Exile
Galaxy Angel (all of them.)

Oh, and Family Guy is NOT anime. Anime is short for "Japanese animation". Family guy is American animation.

~Squeek

[prayerbassist15]

Mine:

Ruroni Kenshin
Outlaw Star
Cowboy Bebop
Trigun
There's just too many good ones, but these are the top four.
Oh and Wolfes Rain is o.k.

[jewpinthethird]

Oh, and Family Guy is NOT anime. Anime is short for "Japanese animation". Family guy is American animation.

~Squeek

Actaully, technically it is. Anime is just the Japanese word for cartoon, derived from Animation. Though, it does not come from Japan, thus is not considered an "Anime" by the american term.

Now for my list:

Neon Genesis Evangelion
FLCL
RahXephon
Cowboy Bebop

Those are the only ones worth mentioning.

[dragon_of_black_flames]

i like rurouni kenshin,trigun, read or die, fullmetal alchemist, cowboy bebop, inuyasha, ghost in the shell and others....i think a lot of the anime thats on adult swim is good

[vashthestampede0987]

My animes....

Ruroni Kenshin
Trigun(duh)
FLCL
Yu Yu Hakusho
Inuyasha
Read or Die
DNA^2
Fullmetal Alchemist
DBZ(for a short period then it just seemed unapealing)
Ghost in the Shell was decent
MOST of the Gundam series
AND SO MANY OTHERS THE LIST WOULD TAKE 3 PAGES.

[Afrobean]

Sailor Moon
DBZ(I'll explain this later)
FLCL
Inuyasha
Fullmetal Alchemist
Super Milk Chan (this counts, right?)
And probably a few others

Sailor Moon was my first anime I ever saw. I loved it before I even new what anime, or japanimation as it was more commonly referred to back then, was. DBZ came not much later. I first saw the dub, and liked it because I was stupid. Then I saw the original on International Channel and I lost all faith in Funimation. FLCL is obvious why I liked it. Inuyasha: I started watching when it first appeared on Adult Swim. I loved it. Fullmetal Alchemist: I've only seen the dub(which is by the same lame company that ruined DBZ so badly), and I still like it. That must mean something. Super Milk Chan is just insane and that's why I love it.

Isn't it funny that all those shows listed above have or are currently on Cartoon Network? The answer is no. Cartoon Network is awesome, and this is ample proof of it.

[tsutter]

Seen too much anime, hard to pick :O

Off-hand though, I'd say :

Elfen Lied
Trigun
Escaflowne(teehee)
Rurouni Kenshin (OVA's moreso than the series)
Cowboy Bebop
Mahoromatic :>
SCRAPPED PRINCESS :OOOOO
and I guess I'll end with Fullmetal Alchemist.

[Tasuke]

What about Anime Movies?

Because in some cases the movies are almost as important as the series
Like Read Or Die, and Cowboy Bebop:Knocking on Heaven's Door

[Squeek]

Since we have this forum, I'd like to make one thing VERY CLEAR.

READ OR DIE WAS NEVER A MOVIE.

I hate Cartoon Network for labeling it as such.

It is a three-episode OAV. The three 30-minute segments were put together and run all at the same time. It was not a movie.

Proof : http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=819

If need be, this will be in its own topic. Maybe announcemented.

~Squeek

[jewpinthethird]

I saw Read or Die about a year an a half ago. It was alright...entertaining to saw the least...but I really dont see what the hype is surrounding it.

[Brainmaster07]

The first two series of Slayers in Japanese are good. The English voice acting hurts my ears, and the third series is kind of wierd... but besides that.

[VashtheGunman7]

What about AKIRA that was a kick ass movie

[psychic25]

Wow, I saw Read or Die a while ago, and I THOUGHT it was a show...

Until it kept going, so I thought it was a movie. And now I find out it's a show. I liked it- not too bad. But yeah, I wondered why it was kind of episodic...

And I haven't seen too much anime, due to the fact that I'm not allowed to stay up late without having to work on homework :P, so I can't usually watch Adult Swim. However, I am starting to become a fan of Rurouni Kenshin and Ghost in the Shell SAC. I also did like Cardcaptor Sakura.

[GuidoHunter]

Serieseses:

The Irresponsible Captain Tylor
Saber Marionette J/J Again/J-X/R

[Omeganitros]

You all fail. Miserably. Okay, not miserably, but badly.

BIG O!


That and Outlaw Star.
Oh, and the first anime I ever saw: Project A-KO.

[Moogy]

Excel Saga
Serial Experiments Lain
FLCL
DBZ LOLOLOZLOLCOZLOL OLL OLo (not really)

Meh, I can't really think of much at 7:15 AM. Maybe later, when I am actually on my own computer.

[Squeek]

I believe I will make a "post what you've seen" thread due to the successes of this thread.

Maybe later. Busy schedule today.

~Squeek

PS - I might add Stellvia to my list if it turns out alright. I'm now halfway through and I love it primarily due to the fact that it reminds me of Ender's Game.

[buttonkiller]

I like Witch hunter robin chrono crusade, anime isnt really my thing. But i do like read or die

[Kefit]

PS - I might add Stellvia to my list if it turns out alright. I'm now halfway through and I love it primarily due to the fact that it reminds me of Ender's Game.

Let's see...soon the angst and whining starts. I hope you get through that alright.

Anyway, my favorite anime of all time is Alien Nine (both the anime and manga combined). After that, in no particular order:

Figure 17
Magical Project S
Mahoromatic
Jubei-chan season 1+2
Elfen Lied
Mai-HiME (although only half the series is out, so this may change)
Fruits Basket

Angelic Layer gets an honorable mention for it's mind-shatteringly good fights, as do Battle Atheletes Victory, Galaxy Angel, and Pita Ten for Akari, Milfeulle and Misha respectively.

[Sangolookalike]

hm... mine would be
Inuyasha
Cowboy Bebop
Fullmetal Alchemist
Ghost in Shell: Stand Alone Complex
and Ruroni Kenshin

[Squeek]

It's surprising to see how many people are strictly mainstream / dubs only.

I would be too had it not been for Kefit, of course.

~Squeek

PS - WOOT! ANGST! WHINING! Can't wait.

[Charlotte21]

FMA
Trigun
Gungrave
Cowboy Bebop
Big O
DBZ (no im srsly)
FLCL

[Afrobean]

It's surprising to see how many people are strictly mainstream / dubs only.
My only exposure to anime is really through Cartoon Network and Adult Swim. I have seen very little outside of AS, like AKIRA and Spirited Away (both were great, but I only saw them because of Japanese class). I'd love to see more, but downloading is both illegal, and very time consuming. I spent about a month downloading just the six episodes of FLCL, and I've decided to never do that again, unless I have a very good reason (ie an anime which is awesome, easily accessible, and not too long).

[Chromer]

Oh, and Family Guy is NOT anime. Anime is short for "Japanese animation". Family guy is American animation.

~Squeek

Actaully, technically it is. Anime is just the Japanese word for cartoon, derived from Animation. Though, it does not come from Japan, thus is not considered an "Anime" by the american term.

Now for my list:

Neon Genesis Evangelion
FLCL
RahXephon
Cowboy Bebop

Those are the only ones worth mentioning.

Qouted for emphasis but I have some more to add.

Love Hina
Maze
Samurai Champloon
Onegai Sensei and Twins
Tenchi Muyo: The Movie/ Tenchi In Love 2
Voices of A Distant Star
Dead Leaves
Ah! My Goddess: The Movie
Princess Nine
Saiyuki
Princess Mononoke
Golden Boy
Peace Maker
Trigun
Perfect Blue
Patlabor WWXI
Blue Gender
Ronin Warriors
G Gundam(the only good Gundam anime)
Robotech
Macross
Fist of The North Star
Steel Angel Kurumi
Ranma 1/2
Hellsing
Devil Lady
etc...


As you can see there are some in that list that are mainstream and some of them people have never heard.

[tsutter]

There's no n in Samurai Champloo, and that makes it sound really gay XD

But at least I know someone else who likes Peace Maker Kurogane now o_O

[Rebirth0]

A newer list from me.

Dragonball Z/GT
Read or Die
G Gundam
Gundam Seed
Trigun
Inuyasha
Yu-Yu Hakasho
Ruroni Kenshin
FullMetal Alchemist
Outlaw Star

This might be it, I'm trying to think of others that I saw and liked.

[Chromer]

Why did I forget Read or Die!? Gah! Anyway, I moticed everyone of those anime have been played on CN at one time or another.

[Chromer]

Why did I forget Read or Die!? Gah! Anyway, I just noticed everyone of those anime have been played on CN at one time or another.

[GuidoHunter]

Dammit! I forgot Perfect Blue! I really liked the first volume of FotNS, too, but I didn't put it since I haven't seen any more of it.

Oh, and Kyatto Ninden Teyande (Samurai Pizza Cats in America) > all.

--Guido

http://andy.mikee385.com

[Chromer]

Srry for Double post.

[Anonymous]

Anime sucks.

[qwertyddr]

you suck...

ai yori aoshi and evangelion =O

[vashthestampede0987]

BAH I forgot outlaw star and Tenchi...IDIOTIC ME! Chromer im gonn have to disagree on the comment you made about the gundam series...Gundam Wing was good and its Endless Waltz was cool.

[Omeganitros]

It's surprising to see how many people are strictly mainstream / dubs only.

I would be too had it not been for Kefit, of course.

~Squeek

PS - WOOT! ANGST! WHINING! Can't wait.

I try. I try really hard. But just knowing that the show Samurai Champloo even existed took hard work.

[MetsPenguin31]

Oh, and Kyatto Ninden Teyande (Samurai Pizza Cats in America) > all.

Guido Wins...

[jewpinthethird]

I was disappointed in Samurai Champloo...as I have said before.

I totally forgot about Kareshi Kanojyo no Jijyou (His and Her Circumstances). I loved that series...well, up until the end....freaking Gainax.

[GuidoHunter]

God, the last DVD was awful. Not like it was bad, but really aggravating. However, I won't hate it based solely on the fact that they'd BETTER come out with another series. The manga's still going on, so they definitely can.

C'mon, though. Intoducing a new character and devoting the entire second-to-last episode to her? What the hell? Then not resolving or ending anything after that? Ugh.. But the show is fan-freaking-tastic.

I really didnt have a problem with the new love story starting...I actually thought it was kind of cool...but half the series involved the preperations for the Festival...AND THEY NEVER SHOWED IT. That is what got me. The series was great...had they included the Festival, it would have been even greater.

After watching the series, I seriously considered buying the rest of the manga...but then I got over it.

[Squeek]

Bump?

I finished Stellvia as I said I would (actually, I finished it about a week ago..) and I add that to my list.

Stellvia was absolutely incredible. The intro / ending themes were astounding, the animation was crisp, the storyline was original (though I continuously related it to Ender's Game), and the characters were interesting.

~Squeek

[vashthestampede0987]

Hey why isnt anyone giving love to the Get Backers'???

[Squeek]

Because I cannot EVER seem to find it.

It's on the list of things I intend to see, but it's not easily locatable for some wierd reason.

~Squeek

[vashthestampede0987]

If you are trying to find the manga...they are hard to find and only like 3 books of them are out...if you are trying to find the show NEVER LISTEN TO THE DAMN ACCURSED ENGLISH DUB, it sounds so horrible compared to their Japanese versions.

[Afrobean]

...NEVER LISTEN TO THE DAMN ACCURSED ENGLISH DUB, it sounds so horrible compared to their Japanese versions.
Isn't that the case with ALL ANIME IN EXISTENCE? The English dub never can even come close to the original Japanese sound track. Most of the time, the company that dubs the anime will just make up a script, rather than translating the Japanese script.

And since I don't recall if I posted in this thread or not, I'll combine two things together here: my favorite anime, and defense for a decent dub. FLCL- without question, the greatest anime of all time. The Japanese version is excellent, and the dub keeps nearly all of the script in tact. The few things that they changed were references to Japanese culture and were replaced with references to American culture (cherio pop replaced with crystal pepsi, and something about chopsticks changed to a conversation about sporks). Add this to the fact that the dubbers used the original Japanese soundtrack(The Pillows music+original sound effects) and just recorded new voices, makes this without a doubt the most faithful dub I've ever seen.

However, in spite of all this that I just typed defending the dub, you should still see it subtitled. The only possible reason to only see it in dub form is that you have Cartoon Network, but so slow of an internet connection that it makes downloading 6 episodes of an anime really lame.

[ringzing]

my favorite anime is ghost in the shell:SAC, love hina, mahoromantic
but there all awsome. in fact i am watching ghost in the shell :x

[tmadd]

Mine are:
Inuyasha
Cowboy Bebop
Fullmetal Alchemist
Ghost in Shell: Stand Alone Complex
and Ruroni Kenshin
Excel Saga
Love Hina :D
and Read or die isn't that bad i think.
also Family Guy isn't an anime

[ddrfreak787]

ha i think that fruits baskets is better than all of those i mean come on DBZfails in comparison to all of them and i might just side with family guy and Ruroni Kenshin is cool if you want to be a poser HAHAHA. but seriously go out and read fruits baskets.(KYO is the coolest charecter of all time :.]). well im out before all of you guys try to kill me.

[CHFDragonBreath]

My animes....

Ruroni Kenshin
Trigun(duh)
FLCL
Yu Yu Hakusho
Inuyasha
Read or Die
DNA^2
Fullmetal Alchemist
DBZ(for a short period then it just seemed unapealing)
Ghost in the Shell was decent
MOST of the Gundam series
AND SO MANY OTHERS THE LIST WOULD TAKE 3 PAGES.nice picture

[jewpinthethird]

Cowboy Bebop was dubbed well. Though after watching all 26 episodes in Japanese, then watching the movie dubbed, the voices seemed a little goofy.

[xObserveRx]

Being a romance fan (oddly enough), I tend to gravitate towards romance themed anime more often than not.

Some of my favourites are:

Ai Yori Aoishi
Onegai Teacher
Onegai Twins (okay)
DearS
Inuyasha

I also like other animes too. Non romance ones that is. One of my favourite animes ever has to be:

X (also called X/1999, X tv) NOT the movie though, only the series.

also:

FMA (honourable mention)
Princess Mononoke (honourable mention)
Spirited Away (honourable mention)
Last Exile (Honourable mention)

[BlueFlameZero]

Trigun, Naruto, Cowboy Bebop, stuff like that.

[BeatboxShinobi]

Let's see:

Excel Saga
Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi
Comic Party
Azumanga Daioh
Ranma 1/2
Magical Play

[HamHack]

mine? rurouni kenshin, ranma 1/2 (really funny), trigun, yu yu hakusho

[tunatime14]

Trigun
Ruroni Kenshin (series and ova's)
Eva
Rahxephon
Record of Loddoss War

Maybe getbackers and chrono crusade, need to watch them for a second time.

[jessybeaten]

Inuyasha

[momiji_wabbit2005]

:twisted: Ok, I like to watch anime!!! Especially Fruits Basket... Ok bye

[Mindfields]

Since I don't have (or want) cable or satellite, I have to judge my opinions on what DVDs I have, had from the library, or graphic novels that I've read. So here goes:
Initial D (I've never seen the show, but I'm still patiently waiting for book #7 to come out)
Ruroni Kenshin
Gundam Wing
Outlaw Star (I've seen a few shows)
and thats about it. I really dislike Inuyasha, as I know a person who...nevermind, I don't want to go into details.

[jewpinthethird]

I just got the Evangelion Platinum:01 (with the fancy box and all that jazz)...man, I had forgotten how awesome Evangelion was...I sat threw the 5 episodes nonstop.

[wun_sweetie]

i LUV inuyashaaa!

[okimas]

i love
-Macross Plus
-LOL Dragon Ball Z
-Initial D
-Naruto
-And many more

[jashiwi]

Chrono Cross, YAMNA SAGA (It is my own animation after all ^_^) and PSME "Please Save My Earth". They have been my favorite for sometime. ^_^

-I know that PSME, has been in America since the earily 1990s but the Soundtrack from Volume 3 -is very beautiful, and the imagery and meaningful-ness of the Anime it's self is always an awe to me. ^^

-Jashiwi

[jashiwi]

i love
-Macross Plus
-LOL Dragon Ball Z
-Initial D
-Naruto
-And many more

Macross Plus is truely outstanding! ^__^ I loved every bit of it! ^_^
-Sheron Apple was my favorite character and Isamu was too. ^^

-Jashiwi

[kickassbuddy]

I <3 Galaxy Angel

I also hve a gf in that show...guess who

[trancedejanero]

mine are initial d and battle royale

[crazyants]

dragon ball /z/gt

[TheMasochist]

I will not go into all the ones I like because that would take up to much message space. My current favorite anime however is Full Metal Alchemist. And there are plenty of reasons why. It's script was not butchered in dubbing, personaly I think Ed and Al sound MUCH MUCH better in english, it has a good storyline, no episode is 'wasted' on a pointless plot, the animation is good, as well as the action, and so on and so forth. I think it is the best anime ever.

[eVILPeeR]

My favourite anime of all time was the movie Akira.
Favourite anime series is Evangelion.

[JinTheFighter]

FLCL inuyasha uhhh.....trigun vampire hunter d and some others that i cant think of now

[Squeek]

Yeah, I was expecting a few people to not ever see / enjoy anything outside of Adult-Swim-esque shows, but this is kinda rediculous.

Experience more. There are so many better animes than FLCL, Trigun, and Cowboy Bebop. Looking for random humor? Excel Saga, Galaxy Angel, Slayers. Looking for action? S-cry-ed, Bleach, Naruto. Looking for a show with a good story? Last Exile, Fruits Basket, Mai-HiME. Looking for my favorite shows? Stellvia, Read or Die, Great Teacher Onizuka.

~Squeek

[Sky_Spade]

[dreabella]

My favorites are Wolf's Rain, Inuyasha, Shaman King, DNAngel, Fullmetal Alchemist, Beyblade, Rurouni Kenshin, MewMew Power, One Piece, and Zatch Bell.

[natsuko]

I would have to say that all animes are my favourite. Except for some very sucky ones. But anime was not made to be sucky so there arent that many bad ones. Top 5= Inuyasha, kenshin, AIR, With hunter Robin, Fugi Yugi...Ooo i have to add one more---or two--Naruto and Ranma

[hatakikakashi]

Just because something is mainstream doesn't mean it's not worth watching. Doesn't the fact that it IS maintstream mean that it's very popular and widely successful? Having said that I don't enjoy most "mainstream" anime, I do however appreciate it's value and respect those who do enjoy them. Yes I do watch Adult Swim but that's not all I watch. I work night audit at a hotel and it's the only thing good on between 2 and 4 am. I don't watch anime so that people will think I am cool or unique. I do because the show is. Aslo "mainstream" anime is by far more accessible, so it's no wonder more people have seen it. You don't have to go online or in a store to find it. It's right there infront of you. Wow I didn't mean to go on for that long. My bad.

[drgnballz]

Anime is basically animated cartoons, so family guy, simpsons, futurama and all of them are anime's. Just because they're made by american people doesn't qualify them as not animated. ;)

Mine would have to be: Dragonball/Z/GT (Yes, 'm a fan of that.)
Inuyasha, Pokemon!, And the list goes on.

Can't forget Naruto though and Rurouni Kenshin though.

[hatakikakashi]

Anime used in English is a more specific term I think. In Japan it is the word for cartoon. So over there Family guy would be anime. But here in the states we say anime when we are refering to Japanese cartoons. Because of their distinct style of animation. It would be like saying Gumby is an anime. But then again my thoughts don't count because I'm a newbie here.

On an awsome note Bleach rules.
My Hime was bitchin.
I love Naruto.
I can't get enough "anime" (Japanese cartoons) I also like anime (non Japanese cartoons) :wink:

[noelsfirst]

my favorites are:
yu yu hakusho
inu yasha
fullmetal alchemist
read or die
FAKE(which is also a manga)
cowboy bebop
any many others...

[Squeek]

FAKE

So you're a girl then. I see.

You still shouldn't read that garbage -.-

~Squeek

[Tasuke]

I started seeing an anime called Dokkoida!? and it is pretty good.
I think it would be suitable for As if one of the main charactrs opponents
wasn't a S&M Mistress. A good twelve episode anime, and it is almost all parody.
It mostly makes fun of regular superhero animes.

[WanderingSpirit]

My favorite anime as of now is Saiyuki.

But I like some others..
Trigun
FLCL
Cowboy Bebop
Excel Saga
Sailor Moon(sue me. ;P)
Tenchi Muyo series
and so on..XD

[shadowblade123]

Naruto is my current fav. but Trigun will always have a place in my heart. God that sounded gay.

[blargherness]

trigun....Ruroni Kenshin...all i can think of as of right now

[jewpinthethird]

God that sounded #$*.

Not really.

Assuming you are male; If you had said "Want to want to cuddle with Vash" then yeah, I would have to agree with you in that it sounds rather homosexual. But you didnt. What you said was more nerdy than gay.

[Enigma-7]

.hack//SIGN, becasuse it's the only good one around.

I'm sick of inuyasha and DBZ because a buncha stupid people always run around in my school saying "Omgz wE HAEV n0 lief DBz and inuYashah r teh best!1!!1!!!!!"

I'm not kidding, their IQ really is at that level.

[Brainmaster07]

Just finished watching the Mai-HiME series.

Best. Ever.

With great music to boot!

[jestermasta1]

Totally Inuyasha!! and FullMetal Alchemist, and Naruto...

[Rebirth0]

I read the topic Squeek locked so I'm bumping this so the people who didn't see it before can see it now.

[Squeek]

I'll keep it alive with the following question.

What are you people seeing in Inuyasha? Have you seen the entire thing? If not, GTFO. I cannot name anybody who has seen all 167 episodes and still liked it. I thought it was interesting until I started getting a few dozen episodes in. Then it just became crap. And finally, after 167 episodes, they just don't end it. It does not end. They just end saying "Well, we're just gonna keep trying to do what we tried to do for 167 episodes and 4 movies!"

Inuyasha sucks.

~Squeek

[Omeganitros]

I'm pretty sure I already posted in here, but I have to say it again:

Outlaw Star was, like, some of the best anime I have ever seen. It had everything, except maybe lesbians. But that's void.

[vashthestampede0987]

Ummm It did have hentai. :P

[ddrruler]

Naruto.

[Tasuke]

I recently got Gakuen Alice and BECK: mongolian chop squad. Both you can get on bit torrent.
Gakuen Alice is total shoujo with magical powers! It's pretty neat if you're into that whole thing
like me. And "BECK" is pretty cool if you like awesome rock and silly japanese-english, which is
used constantly and makes my ears bleed.

[Crim21]

[EnergyLiger]

My top favorite is Last Exile, of course ^__^ What a GREAT storyline! Absolutely loved the meaning added into the Anime about the sky, flying, and all else. Another good anime is FLCL. There IS alot of Animes out there, find a way to download em or borrow from someone or just buy them if you want to see really good ones. :D

[emptiness]

DBZ/GT
Vampire Hunter D

Initial D
Escaflowne
Howl's Moving Castle

[Noe3]

Gundam Wing (the only one I liked)

[XDDRCutieX]

My favorites are .Hack//sign and Trigun. Those are really the only anime I watch. there is some other good ones I have seen but can't remember the names right now. One was something like Bubblegum something. Don't really know. When I find out I will tell you.
~Rach~

[DRangedTeddyBear]

Favs- Samurai Champloo, Gungrave, Inu Yasha, Rurouni Kenshin, Yu Yu Hakusho, Read or Die, Trigun, once in a while FLCL, Zoids New Century Zero(I'm such a child), FullMetal Alchemist, most Gundam series, Ghost in the Shell, .Hack//Sign ....must I go on?

[Squeek]

Can all you ".hack//SIGN rox" people please PLEASE tell me why you think it's a halfway decent show?

I guess you all just like watching people talk for 20 minutes... about NOTHING.

~Squeek

[XDDRCutieX]

I use to like it a lot. I don't really watch it anymore. I don't watch much TV period. I only watch Family Guy and thats about it. .hack//SIGN is just like a show that you have to figure out something. What makes the show more fun, is having the video game to go with it. =D O well. I guess it's not as good as what it was.
~Rach~

[Squeek]

You can "figure it out" in about half an episode. There's a kid trapped in a video game. It's an anime. What do you think is going to happen?

By the way, it's not an ongoing series with 100+ episodes that you "like at first". You see it all, then it's over. It's only 26 episodes long.

And every episode is just talking.

~Squeek

[XDDRCutieX]

O well I never even finished watching all of them because I stopped watching TV. So I really don't know what happens. =/
~Rach~

[YungYung]

My favorites are byfar Macross 7, Sailor Moon Stars (which is the 5th season), Card Captor Sakura, and as of recent Tsubasa. There would be more if I could actually remember the names. I used to watch a ton of anime in Hong Kong while it was aired on TV. I loved all of it, but I just can't seem to remember any of the names.

[Tokzic]

I am a die-hard anime/manga fan and therefore it's going to be tricky to pick out favourites, but here goes:

Trigun (Best. Anime. Ever.)
Getbackers (The dubbing for Kazuki scares me; the manga's better.)
.hack//LotT
Inuyasha (What little anime we get on TV in Canada.)
Fullmetal Alchemist (Pwnz.)
Naruto
Yu Yu Hakusho
Many, many others that I'm too lazy to list. Though I have much more manga than anime.

EDIT:
So you're a girl then. I see.

You still shouldn't read that garbage -.-

~Squeek

Burn all yaoi.

[dugo]

GRAVITATION ROX MY SOX! And any of you who doesnt accept me being a bisexual can kiss my ass. >>;

[Tokzic]

I'm fine with the fact that you're bi, but I'm not fine with the fact that you double-posted. Supporting yaoi no less. *burns random FAKE volume, gets killed by yaoi fangirls*

[Tasuke]

Sexy Commando Gaiden Sugoiyo!! Masarusan. Now that is an awesome anime.
Except that each episode is only 8 minuters long. but man is it awesome. This
show is like a volcano wrapped in bacon and super-models, that's how awesome it is.

[Killrodx]

With so many new anime series arriving over from japan, it's just so hard to keep up with a favorite anymore.
But here are my top 5 favorites:
1) Paranoia agent - I've been watching this ever since it aired on a.s and it's kept me interested. always wondering what might happen.
2) Xenosaga the animation - yes they made a short 12-13 episode series based from the first xenosaga game. They changed a few things around but I loved it.
3) Saikano - wow.. this was a very depressing anime. one of the very few anime's to actually hate humanity and war.
4) Gundam 0083: Stardust memory - one of the few series that kept me interested in u.c (universal century) gundam (besides 8th M.S team).
5) The Big O - *gasp* Ever since it ended after season two it's been making me want them to hurry and perhaps get season three done *sigh*.

I have alot more that I like but it keeps changing.

[crazyants]

Why do so many people like such bad anime?

Why do so many people like such bad anime?

--Guido

http://andy.mikee385.com

Well, probably because bad anime is usually the only type of anime that is played on American television.

[Chromer]

Meh, people will only watch what stuff that is readily available to them (E.G.- AS) so its no wonder their favorite anime are mostly seen on Saturday nights. Well right at the moment, my favorite anime are Slayers, Those Who Hunt Elves 1 and 2, and Naruto (who could blame me?). They all rock my socks hard. Especially Lina Inverse.

[Tokzic]

A very good and legitimate question; one I would like to know the answer of. Though the availablity theory works.

[Omeganitros]

http://andy.mikee385.com

Well, probably because bad anime is usually the only type of anime that is played on American television.

Acutally, I have been impressed by the amount of effort AS puts into getting good anime on TV, as of lately.

Anyways, the very first anime I ever saw was some movie about Project A-KO. It was pretty cool back then, though I bet I would be totally annoyed by the amount of schoolgirl-ness in it if I watched it now.

[_Sasuke_]

Im not sure if u guys have heard of GTO but i thought that that was pretty cool.
I also like Ruroni Kenshin and Yu Yu Hakusho

[Chromer]

Wow nice bump from motnths ago. Anyway, my new favorite anime are Gantz, Tenjho Tenge and Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi.

[buuuh]

Tenjho Tenge


xd

ps Elfen Lied, Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, Figure 17, and Mai-HiME, just coming off the top of my head.

[PhantomT]

Family guy is not an anime, an anime is an japanese animation that hav a certain type of art.

[Chromer]

What? That was so random, it could surpass even Moogy in retardedness.

[Squeek]

He obviously only read the first post before replying, as the very next post said "Family Guy is not anime."

[Squeek]

One Piece just owns all other Shonen anime by like 2 or 3 times the ownage factor.

There's no competition. Any show that can make the viewer feel that emotionally affected by the actions of its characters instantly wins.

~Squeek

[darkshark]

one that not too many other people liked was Blue Gender, i really liked it though.
FLCL, One Piece, Ghost In the Shell, ParaKiss, Sailor Moon

[jamuko]

I like way too many things, but if I had to pick my favorites off the top of my head, I'd say... Card Captor Sakura, Mai-HiME, and Azumanga Daioh.

[Moogy]

PS The word "anime" is already plural.

[Grandiagod]

Anything of Miyazaki

Wolf's Rain
Samurai Champloo
Cowboy Bebop (all three made by Bones I think0

Trigun

I love pluralizing words that don't need to be. Any body in the mood to watch some mices.
