What's your favorite anime?

Re: What's your favorite anime?

Death Note, DragonBall Z, and occasionally Bleach.

Re: What's your favorite anime?

In this order-

Bleach

FMA

Death Note

Naruto

and thats it pretty much

Re: What's your favorite anime?

Absolutely Bleach and Death Note

Re: What's your favorite anime?

It's ok to not cry from that. It's somewhat understandable... somewhat. Now go watch Air in Summer (although I like the Ancestor part of the story from the main anime series better)

Ugh. Shonen Jump (Dragonballs, Bleaches, Death Notes, Narutos, etc. etc.) dominates America. Sheesh. Go watch some other company anime for a change. Not saying that Death Note is bad (very good on the contrary), but if you like anime, you should be aware that there's more than Jump offers. Unfortunately, I gave up on Bleach. Everything up to the Arrancar fillers was good. Then it went boom. I don't need terrible story/anime quality. Also, the manga is going too far with powers, as is Naruto. Naruto is still plausible because its currently the climax of one of the biggest conflicts in Part II.

Yes to FLCL (manga>anime), much better than Neon Genesis Evangelion was (both by the same peoples).

Fullmetal Alchemist is one of the best anime I have ever seen, so it's ok if its repeated over and over again. (Got 100% when I used it for an independent reading assignment, cause I wrote like 30 pages on it. Teacher doesn't know its a manga, cause I left it in the Japanese title. XD)

Go watch like... Chobits (CLAMP), or Kanon2006 (VisualKey), or Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu (Kyoto Key Animation), or Shakugan no Shana (Kyoto Animations) (1st season is somewhat better), or like Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni (own company).

ischooltennyson: Yu Yu Hakusho... and as omgitznpv says, not really. One of those classic (just precendential and not good like dragonball is) animes that modern otakus don't come to appreciate.

kamunt: http://www.hack.channel.or.jp/trilogy/ Japanese, unfortunately. the DVD and the blue ray disc is already for sale. Good stuff, but not so necessary if you played the game. You can enjoy some quality cg anime. (Nothing beats Final Fantasy Advent Children in cg anime though...)

Recent anime that I've watched:
Da Capo (4/5 love comedy) planning to watch Second Season and II soon enough. Don't ask why the third (if it can be considered a separate season) season is called Da Capo II.

ef - a tale of memories (5/5 surreal romance) I'm looking forward to getting the cggame, ef - a fairy tale of the two.

Shigofumi (5/5, lightnovel rules and last book released today) Great short story conglomeration. It represents death in the complete opposite way that Death Note does.

Waiting on CLANNAD, Shakugan no Shana II (lightnovel as well), Deltora Quest (read the books...), 11eyes (cggame, Tatsh made the OP )

planning to watch: Bokurano, Spiral, Lovely Complex.

reading: Mahou Sensei Negima. The manga has STILL not dropped picture quality (scenery is awesome). Awesome story, and unlike most JUMP manga, Shonen Magazine actually puts a limiter on power so it's not endless. Fyi, Negima Neo is different from Mahou Sensei Negima.

Happy Konataism! XD

Re: What's your favorite anime?

School Rumble for sure. But, it's closely followed by Full Metal Panic! and Ah! My Goddess. =D

Re: What's your favorite anime?

Pissed now though, I missed Death Note last week!

Re: What's your favorite anime?

Old School Music: Did you actually play the cggame that your current signature image comes from? O_o

Frantically weird game... I think it was called Imitation. A stepfile for the OP is in the Cherry Step Simfile Pack from www.otakusdream.com but I never played the game...

I will watch Full Metal Panic, Second Raid, and Fumoffu asap. As a Kagami Hiiragi fan, it hurts to not know her favorite lightnovel. X_X

rzr: buy the DVD box sets. It makes up for all the people who pirate stuff online... and you don't have to wait every week.

Re: What's your favorite anime?

Someone give me good Sci-Fi anime.
I don't really like fantasy anything, books as well.

Re: What's your favorite anime?

This is why I hate America.

Re: What's your favorite anime?

Agreed.

Hmm... Personally my current top 10 list looks something like:

1. Gundam SEED (Destiny)
2. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (Kai)
3. School Days TV
4. FLCL
5. Lucky Star
6. Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu
7. Kanon'06
8. Da Capo (Second Season)
9. Elfen Lied
10. Ichigo 100%

Re: What's your favorite anime?

I really only like 4 animes
Gantz
Gatekeepers
Gatekeepers 21
Chobits.

Re: What's your favorite anime?

I always thought of sci-fi as equivalent to fantasy in many sense of the depiction... BUT

In the bright sense of the genre, Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu is a sci-fi anime.

In the dark sense of the genre, Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni is a sci-fi anime, and so is Elfen Lied..

I don't really watch direct science fiction animes because I don't know too many. I don't know too many mecha animes (if you consider those scifi) either (never watched Gundam, though I heard Wings was exceptionally good). The ones I mentioned above have aspects of science fiction but aren't too close to things you see on American science fiction channels... You can try watching them anyways. XD

not to the point of hate... I find as many Americans who know only what you noted, as there are Americans that know more anime than I do. So, America hasn't lost all hopes of Konata-ism... XD

Re: What's your favorite anime?

I don't know why I'm reading this topic but Gundam Wing is horrendous garbage and should never be watched by anyone, ever.

This goes for most Gundam shows, really. They've been done to death a million times already. Go watch Code Geass instead.

Re: What's your favorite anime?

Paranoia Agent
FLCL
Loveless
and uh........Fullmetal Alchemist I guess, it's not the actual story, I thought it was. Turns out, it's still going in Giappone. :U

EDIT: Psalms of Planet EurekaseveN goes under FLCL, :3

Re: What's your favorite anime?

Ahaha, third negative opinion about Wing... and I talk to a lot of people... But, I do agree that Gundam as a whole isn't too interesting...

I will watch Code Geass. But now that I won't get my laptop for a while, it's not happening immediately.

Lol, Hinamizawa.
