Not a huge anime watcher anymore. Don't like the direction the industry went (moe shows and stuff)...

Re: Favorite anime
whats a moe show?
Re: Favorite anime
Moe is a character design style that sells like hotcakes regardless of how bad/shallow/non-existent the plot is.
Haruhi, K-On, Lucky Star, are the most prominent examples. Don't like 'em at all.

Re: Favorite anime
There was a post like this a while back where I went into some genre specifics and gave huge plot synopsis and the sort... But I'm not feeling up to that right now so Ill just drop a few titles that I can recommend wholeheartedly. I don't have a favorite per se, that's impossible considering how many amazing titles I've seen, but, here's a few I can rave over.
Hajime no Ippo
Nana
Fushigi Yugi
Higurashi no Naka Koro ni
Ayashi no Ceres
Fate/Stay Night
Gantz
Berserk
Robotech
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Just to name a few. I've got a pretty big collection of DVD's and Manga, spent waaaay too much money within my short life time, and will undoubtedly waste much more before I end up dying, a poor man, curled up with my PenPen plushie... ... ... Anywho, next week is Hajime no Ippo's twenty year anniversary. That my friends, is quite the achievement.

I never liked Cowboy Bebop although I always enjoyed the universe and the adds. As well as the art. But watching an episode was horrible for me.

Blasphemy! Cowboy Bebop was brilliant! It tied the whole bounty hunter life style into an awesome backstory between Spike and Vicious, had a forbidden love story, and the perfect ending! How could you dislike it?Aaron wrote:I never liked Cowboy Bebop although I always enjoyed the universe and the adds. As well as the art. But watching an episode was horrible for me.

I haven't watched enough Anime to really be able to contribute too much to this thread, but I really liked FLCL when they aired it on Adult Swim.

Adult Swim is only good for the comedy stuff.

Yeah, well, FLCL definitely fits under the "comedy" banner. It's kind of a riot.

Yeah FLCL is great. We can all learn life lessons from Atomisk, the pirate king...

Re: Favorite anime
My Top Ten:
1. FMA (the original, not that new one which seems to be rushing through the manga's story at breakneck speed).
2. Fushigi Yuugi
3. Bleach (or at least, the first three seasons back when it was still going anywhere good)
4. Trigun
5. Utawarerumono (don't ask me to explaint his one, its REALLY weird)
5. Neon Genesis Evangelion
6. Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit
7. SoltyRei
8. Gundam Seed (and no, I already know about and have seen the original, Wing, and various others, don't try to dissuade me from this opinion).
9. Louie the Rune Soldier (an awesome comedy-action/adventure series in which the main character is turned into a woman, an old man, a baby, a frog, and a squidman over the course just a mere few episodes after he wielded a boar as his weapon of choice against an army of darkness! )
10. And all the Slayers series.

Code Geass (both seasons)
Slayers (Slayers = amazing)

Re: Favorite anime
The reason why I'd say that Hunter x Hunter is the best, is because it's infinitely better written than 99% of anime on the market. There's literally no plot protection of any kind. The main character actually loses all of his major fights for the first two arcs. He beats a few of the weaker characters in the third arc, but gets completely owned when it really matters. He then loses all of his fights in the fourth arc. He wins a few minor fights, and one major fight in the fifth arc. There's a sixth arc as well, but it's manga only(thank god because it sucks badly).
It's a very unusual and unique anime. Hisoka in particular is an amazing character. He's creepy, badass, and funny all rolled into one character.
Here's a link to the manga if anyone is interested in reading it. You can also find the manga for most of the anime I listed at this site. Except Gungrave, since that doesn't have a manga.

No way. Cowboy Bebop was great, and even though I didn't see all of Samurai Champloo, I liked what I saw.Benevolent_Ghaleon wrote:Adult Swim is only good for the comedy stuff.
Other shows have been less than desirable like Blood +, but many of their comedy shows aren't any better. I guess their comedy shows just aren't my cup of tea. I miss Futurama.
