Post Reply New Topic

Here's my favorite anime series:

Astro Boy (80's version)
Azumanga Daioh
Dragon Ball
Dragon Ball Z
FLCL
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood
Hamtaro
Hetalia
Ranma 1/2
Sailor Moon
Tenchi Muyo!
Yu-Gi-Oh
Yu-Gi-Oh GX
Yu Yu Hakusho

Code Geass (This one is probably my absolute favorite if I had to pick), Highschool of the Dead, Death Note, Sword Art Online, Deadman Wonderland.

...Naruto. There. I said it. I don't enjoy reading it, the story is becoming increasingly filled with plot holes and general BS of late, but I have to see what happens after years of watching/reading the manga. I spent the better portion of one winter break a few years back watching up to the time skip on DVD. If only for that reason I will continue on.

Many. And I do not know where to begin.

My favourite would probably be Kanon (2006), it might be from the fact it was my first romantic comedy with tragedy elements (and moe), but I really like it, I think I really found my ni he when I found this series. The Clannad series is also good.

Blood+
RahXephon
Azumanga Dioh


there's a few more, i know...but that's what i can think of right now

Princess Mononoke, Spirited away, Howl´s moving castle. All by the phenomenal Hayao Miyazaki.

I think it was called a "Perfect Blue" It was about a schizophrenic girl I think, or maybe she had something else

shameless plug

Oh yes, I jump around from favorite to favorite depending on the mood I'm in. Right now it's One Piece. (I kind of have a crush on Emporio Ivankov)

Others include:
Sailor Moon
Yu Yu Hakusho
Yu-Gi-Oh (and all spinoffs)
Rave Master
Cyborg 009
Pokemon
Hunter X Hunter
Beyblade Metal Fusion (and Metal Masters)
Black Butler
Hetalia
Soul Eater

...Do the Hiyao Miyazaki films count?

Watching Sailor Moon Crystal now - fan of the original.

Also, at various times:
Yu Yu Hakusho
Inuyasha
Fullmetal Alchemist
.hack//SIGN
and an odd little gem called Paranoia Agent.

The original Guyver is a great sci-fi/superhero series. Robotech is an amazing epic.

Either Eureka seven or Clannad are my favorites. I also really enjoyed toradora

Blood-c, I don't care that it has senseless violence that allows no time for you to attain a connection with the character before they're swallowed alive. I really love the protagonist's apathy towards her friends deaths, usually it'd be quite the contrary with annoying cliche moral speeches that consume episodes upon episodes. Probably my favorite part about this anime is that it doesn't have a happy ending, instead it leaves you with a somewhat indifferent and void feeling accompanied by a philosophical question that will leave you pondering for quite sometime. To be exact the question and the whole ideal of the anime was "Influence versus Ethology" what wins when put in a situation with given variables, I put it vaguely as to not reveal any spoilers of this masterpiece.

My Top 5 no particular order:

Attack On Titan
Future Diary
Spice and Wolf
Wolf's Rain
Elfen Lied

Honorable Mentions:

Death Note
Kasshern Sins (hope I spelled that right)
Moon Phase

Dishonorable Mention:

Squid Girl (Soo f*****g annoying i couldn't get past the first 2 episodes )
