Darth Kalverys Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 I just recently got pulled into anime by three of my friends... and I was curious as to what good shows or comic books are out there. On my list to read/watch are: Bleach Naruto There are some others, but I can't remember their names... ummm... what do you guys suggest?
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 From my anime folders: Death Note Gundam 00 Gurren Lagann Higurashi Kaibutsu Oujo Kodomo no Jikan Lucky Star Ouran High School Host Club Rozen Maiden/Traumend/Ouverture Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei School Days Seto no Hanayome Shakugan no Shana/Second Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu Zoku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
DrPhil2501 Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 I'm hearing alot of good things about Fullmetal Alchemist... I haven't watched it yet, but I plan to some time in the future... Ghost in the Shell is another I recomend. The franchise is quite succesful. Part of the inspiration provided for the Matrix, incase you are bothered to know... Hellsing is another good one I recomend... filled with vampires 'n stuff
Sabretooth Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 There's an anime thread around here that you should clear all your doubts and more! I've seen these, and these are my recommendations: Jigoku Shoujo Jigoku Shoujo Futakomori Ergo Proxy (my favourite) Trinity Blood Cowboy Bebop (best evah) Ghost in the Shell: Stand-Alone Complex I'm no expert here, though.
Corinthian Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Yugioh The Abridged Series is always good.
Ztalker Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Full Metal Alchemist rocks. Just be sure to watch all the episodes in the right order. There are many sub-plots you might miss out otherwise. Also, there's a very good movie ending the series. It's called 'Conqueror of Shamballa.' Story is basically about two brothers trying to find their place in the world because of an tragic, horrifying event that they started. Also, the setting is...special. The movie explains it...let's just say it's more real then meets the eye
Lantzen Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Death Note - A very good serie, but around episode 18 it become a little meh, some episodes are good and some very bad from there Gurren Legann - Big Mecha, and at the end they are even bigger ^^ What not to like Serious, when i started to look at it i though it wasnt so good, but after episode 3 it's only gets better and better, and the last episode is godlike. I have watched the finale episode like 10 times, and im one of those guys that need to wait maybe a year before i like to the watch something again Fullmetall Alchemist - Just a good serie, thumb up for all anime fans Hellsing - If you like vampires and stuff like that Even if it maybe sound a little negative of some of the seires, i recommend all of those. It's those series that make me glad i started to watch anime
JoeDoe 2.0 Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Well Jmac horded all the cool animes, so I'll recommend: -Eureka 7 -Darker than Black -Code Geass -PERSONA -Trinity Soul- -Samurai Champloo -Black Lagoon -Basilisk -Claymore
Prime Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Here are my favs. Note that most of these have several films and TV shows Macross series Ghost in the Shell Patlabor Samurai Champloo Cowboy Bebop
Darth Kalverys Posted February 1, 2008 Author Posted February 1, 2008 What about Trinity Blood? It looks pretty interesting... but has anyone ever seen it? If someone has could they tell me if it's any good...
Jeff Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Most of mine have probably been recommended by others as well but I'll throw in some of my favs. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Death Note Bleach Fullmetal Alchemist Lucky Star Gurren Lagann Ghost in the Shell Cowboy Bebop Black Lagoon Samurai Champloo
Rogue Nine Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Silly jmac. Stay away from Kodomo no Jikan and School Days if you value your sanity. The first is full of loli and fail and the second is harem romance anime gone horribly, horribly wrong. Unless both of those genres are right up your alley; in that case, go right ahead.
Jason Skywalker Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 NICE BOAT! :zaru I also reccomend Fate/stay Night, Clannad if you're into the high school romance type and such, Dragonaut, Kekkaishi and Spice and Wolf.
Darth Kalverys Posted February 1, 2008 Author Posted February 1, 2008 Spice and Wolf. Is that one anime or two different ones???
MdKnightR Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Before you get too deep in the new stuff, you should do yourself a favor and watch shows from the roots of anime. My personal favorites from that time are Star Blazers and Battle of the Planets. IMHO, they are about the only anime worth watching to this day.
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Silly jmac. Stay away from Kodomo no Jikan and School Days if you value your sanity.

Oh, you mean that one show you told me to watch \(O.0)/
Jason Skywalker Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Is that one anime or two different ones??? One. Were they two, i would have separated Kekkaishi and Spice with a comma.
BrollytheMighty Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Would you guys recommend a movie called Heavy Metal and Heavy Metal 2000?
JoeDoe 2.0 Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 I like Spice and Wolf also, it's like a break from action anime (which is the majority)
Serpentine Cougar Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 FullMetal Alchemist is my favorite anime of all time, though I didn't quite like the ending. You should check out the manga - it's not finished yet, but I think it might have a better ending. Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo, and Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade were also really good. If you need/want to see what kind of objectionable content is in an anime you're thinking of watching, you might like to check out this site.
Rogue Nine Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Oh, you mean that one show you told me to watch \(O.0)/ Well see, I knew that sort of show would be right up your alley, jmac. :3
