RedHawke Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Well I like anime Aash Li... and so do thers around here... check out this thread by jedigoku. Let's see... (Here's a short list I now keep around) I like Masamune Shirow's works... > Dominion: Tank Police (Gotta love the Puma sisters) > Ghost In The Shell > Appleseed > Black Magic M-66 The others I like; > Record of Lodoss Wars (Awesome AD&D Style Fantasy Anime) > Bubblegum Crisis Series (Gotta Love Women In Power Armor) > All The Macross/RoboTech Series and Movies (And the Original Unaltered Works that made up RoboTech like Genesis Climber Mospeda) > Mobile Suit Gundam (Up to and including the F-91 and 0083 Series, I have not seen the G. Seed and G. Wing Series yet...) > City Hunter (Older Series very cool, very funny series.) > Cowboy Bebop (I love Spike's Fighter... and then there is Fey Valantine) > MADDOX-01 (A practical and sweet-looking Power Armor that runs on Diesel fuel... good story too.) > The Guyver (I love the whole Bio-Armour theme) > Trigun ($$60,000,000,000 Please!) > Armor Hunter Mellowlink (Older Post Apocalyptic Setting Series) > The Dirty Pair (Kei and Yuri, wear very little, blow up planets, nuff said!) > Ninja Scroll > Akira (How could I forget that one... I didn't like it at first but it grew on me.) > SolBianca > Patlabor (Like Hill Street Blues with giant robots.) Originally posted by Emperor Devon Normally I wouldn't mind anime, I might even be slightly interested in it, but this... Look at the artwork section... Simply unforgivable blasphemy... Nothing there that is remotely anime ED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aash Li Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 Dominion: Tank Police Ghost In The Shell Appleseed Black Magic M-66 Heard of all those, never saw any of them except Ghost in the Shell (love the series) Record of Lodoss Wars Bubblegum Crisis Series The Macross/RoboTech Series Yeah saw all those except Lodoss War Mobile Suit Gundam Got tired of them afterwhile. You can only do so much mecha before it gets old. City Hunter Havent heard of it... (and no Im not young, I used to watch Star Blazers on network tv) Cowboy Bebop Faye... nuff said. <3 MADDOX-01 Heard of it, havent seen it. The Guyver hahahahahaha Trigun Love trigun. It would be 100 times better if it got rid of the angst and drama. I love that cat in the show that appears everywhere. Armor Hunter Mellowlink Sounds sorta familiar. The Dirty Pair Is that like Dirty Pair Flash? Ninja Scroll Never saw it, but I know of it. Akira ugh. SolBianca Love this anime! Patlabor I saw this one once, but I dont remember anything about it. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedHawke Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Aash Li, All the Shirow anime I would recommend, both the old and newer remakes are pretty good. Dominion is a classic. If you like fantasy stories like LOTR, and get a chance to see it, Record of the Lodoss Wars is really, really good... Originally posted by Aash Li Mobile Suit Gundam Got tired of them afterwhile. You can only do so much mecha before it gets old. That is why I stopped watching the newer series myself after a certain point, but the old ones still have a place in my LD and DVD collections. Originally posted by Aash Li The Dirty Pair Is that like Dirty Pair Flash? Sort of, the older series is what I was referring to. I have not seen Dirty Pair Flash yet, but I believe it is the same series, story wise, just modernized a little. City Hunter... what can I say the hero is James Bond one minute, and if a pretty girl walks into his line of sight he becomes anything but suave and debonair... some really humorous scenes abound in this series. Some of the Laws of Anime are readily apparent in this series. Maddox-01 is a movie about a normal guy who gets possession of a prototype diesel powered suit of power armor, and then chaos ensues. Patlabor, well like I said it is Hill Street Blues with the police in giant robots. A little more cerebral than most, which adds to it's novelty to me. Originally posted by Emperor Devon Go to the fan art section section. That's where the anime is. Fanart is never considered anime ED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedHawke Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Originally posted by Aash Li Unless its fanart of an anime or manga and is drawn in the same style. I am of the school of thought that unless it is animated, it isn't anime... If you made 24 frames of fanart and turned it into a 1 second movie clip then your fanart could be considered anime. Most fanart fits more into the Manga catagory... but that is just me most likely. EDIT: @ Cyborgninja what is Naruto like? EDIT 2: Put in a missing word... response to Aash Li's post below!

Aash Li Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 Well yeah, I was referring to fanart of anime, but fanart couldnt be manga either with that definition since its only one panel and theres no text... usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChAiNz.2da Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 ooooo.. anime... me likey Obviously Ghost in the Shell is a fav of mine (ergo the avatar) but there's so much out there that's to like it's hard to list them all... my 'mainstream' favorites... (read Adult Swim) Ghost in the Shell (Stand Alone Complex Series) Cowboy Beebop Samurai Champloo Inuyasha Full Metal Alchemist .hack FLCL (Fooly Cooly) Not so, 'mainstream: (well, for the non-anime fans that is.. hehehe) Ghost in the Shell (the original movie) Akira Appleseed Ninja Scroll Jrusci Yatsura Roujin Z Vampire Hunter D Catsoup Go Shogun Escaflowne (the movie, NOT the series) Princess Mononoke Noir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montnoir Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Series: Space Adventure Cobra (simply the best) Hellsing Noir (badass!) Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex Haibane Renmei Berserk Record of Lodoss War (the one in 13 parts NOT the one in 26) Cowboy Bebop Original Dirty Pair (NOT Dirty Pair Flash) Last Exile (very nice steampunk atmosphere) Movies: Vampire Hunter D Blood: The Last Vampire Wicked City Ninja Scroll Ghost in the Shell (both the original and #2 - Innocence) Appleseed (both, but the new one which is cgi and looks "cartooned" has a deeper story) Spirited Away Spriggan Has anyone seen Elfen Lied? I have heard it should be really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aash Li Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 For simply *the* wierdest hentai movies ever, I would reccomend: Yurotsukodoji - I saw this once because my cousin rented it. I liked it because Im a fan of utterly bizzare scifi. hehe And Im probly spelling it wrong, because I can never remember the spelling... and I think Demon City Shinjuko is another anime thats just really wierd and hentai, but Im not sure. Yes! Someone else has seen Haibane Renmai! I absolutely loved that series! The last half of that series I cried through nearly every episode.Very angsty but also bittersweet. Oh, and before anyone goes and gets Loveless, I warn you its Yaoi, though there is no sex or anything, its just got two guys kissing and snuggling in it. ^_^; But its really pretty good as far as yaoi goes. Samurai Champloo is pretty good too, Ive been enjoying it. I really like Fuu. FLCL is probly the most random anime ever, besides Paranoia Agent. I really liked FLCL, or FRCR as it would be in Japanese (no l in their kanas) Paranoia Agent anime's bizzareness fails to be able to be expressed with my current set of words. lol As for movies Im an utter fan-girl (the near squealing type) for Hayao Miyazaki's movies. And Howl's Moving Castle was no exception. I got to see the original movie as an English subbed version before it came to the US. hehe I also liked Princess Mononoke, but not as much as Spirited Away - I still cry during the ending of it, and Ive seen it 4 times. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphanaut64 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I LOVE ANIME!! Komugi & FLCL are my favorites! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I like certain shows, but I find with anime you have to wade through a lot of crap to find the good stuff. Here are the ones I got into, although there are others that I have liked over the years. Films: Ghost in the Shell 1 & 2 Patlabor 1 & 2 Macross: Do You Remember Love (probably a little before the time of some of you ) Ninja Scroll Akira Series: Macross (SDFM, Plus, Zero, not 7!) Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GiG Samurai Champloo Patlabor Cowboy Bebop Shows I enjoyed as a kid: Astroboy Starblazers (a.k.a. Space Battleship Yamato) Speed Racer (a.k.a. Mach Go Go Go) Battle of the Planets (a.k.a. Gatchaman) And even though it isn't anime, I love Samurai Jack.

Aash Li Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 Starblazers/Space Battleship Yamato was my most favourite "cartoon" when I was little, then Transformers came along. hehe. I still love the anime though. I still call those two cartoons, even though I know they are anime now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastila Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Well i don't really watch tv shows anime some but not a lot I watch old ones like X-men or spiderman Fantastic 4, Sonic superheros ones i watched Clone wars as well. But i watch a lot of film ones like Vampire Hunter D Blood: The Last Vampire Animatrix Spirited Away ( i think this is a great film!!) Appleseed Wicked City and some more which i can't think of.

RevanA4 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 um does anybody get strange looks when you say you like anime` cuz i get that a lot and my guess is most people think of poke`mon when i say it but thankfully I'm in a tech career ( i think liking anime` is a requirement;) ) so most people i talk to like anime` Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its just semantics, but most people dont consider x-men or other marvel comics cartoons anime. Anime is just the Japanese word for animation, and they are both the same thing in concept in that they are both animated, but dont go around to anime-cons and call the xmen/fantastic 4, anime.

I think alot of the mis-informed either associate anime to the extremes... ie - the "fluffy" side in jedigoku's case, and the hardcore demon-porn in mine.. hehehe...
