Your Favorite Anime

[jeepnut]

I doubt I will ever like Anime. I watched Pokemon for a while but then I got bored with it. Then, the success of Pokemon killed Animaniacs (My favorite cartoon) and brought over a ton of weak immitators (Yu-gi-oh, MegaMan, Digimon, etc.) which have completely ruined afternoon cartoons on WB. Can't stand Anime anymore.

Now now..... MegaMan was not an immitator.... it was an originator.

[Teuthida]

Anime has ruined Saturday morning cartoons. I feel bad for the kids of today.

As for Pokémon. The first two, maybe three eps were decent. Went downhill from there.

Movie-wise I would say my favorite is Tonari no Totoro by Miyazaki. Spirited Away was ok I guess. Mononoke Hime was better.

Not the new MegaMan crap. Like MegaMan NT warrior or whatever it's called.

[MuGen]

yeah I meant the original...

I used to be crazy about Gundam Wing, now not so much. I argee with you Vampyr, Endless waltz was so kickass.

I used to watch Escaflowne, that was a cool show. The original Dragon Ball was probably the first anime I ever watched and enjoyed. I liked DBZ for quite some time. Seen a bit of Evangelion, which was quite cool. Only watched a little of Gundam Wing, and for some reason I never really cared for it.

I'm mainly too lazy to watch any huge anime series anymore. Unless I get them on DVD, I just sort of end up not watching them...

Movies like Akira, Princess Mononoke, and Spirited Away are all quite badass. I prefer anime in that form so I don't have to watch a crap ton of episodes to get the whole story.

Neon Genesis Evangelion. Loved it. Characters and storyline were superb. :] It's probably my favorite.

Hellsing. Alucard is just plain cool.

Azu Manga Daioh- Funniest. Manga. Ever. Anime sucks though.

FLCL was fun.

Kare Kano manga was funny. :]

Battle Royale manga is cool coz it's different from the movie.

I really like Inuyasha, the anime, but it's too many episodes and I never have time to see THAT many episodes X_x I like the fantasy storyline though :]

I was once very obsessed with Love Hina. I think that was my real first entry into Japanese popculture (besides video games and pokemon). I read all the manga and saw all the anime and movies :P

Negima is also a new manga from the guy who did Love Hina. It's great.

Cowboy Bebop- Obviously a classic. Loved the music too

I liked Rebirth Manga. I enjoy Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex.. Also the movie. I loved Spirited Away. I liked the Naruto manga, and i wanna see the anime but I don't have any episodes. :[

Chobits.. it was entertaining, but the ending sucked. I like the Samurai Deeper Kyo manga too.

There's probably more crap I've read or seen over the years and I just can't remember.

[Ginkasa]

I really like the Gundam series. I've liked all the ones I've seen anyway... Although G Gundam was kind of iffy.

Miyazaki's movies are fun. Nausicaa is my favorite followed by Princess Mononoke then Spirited Away then Castle in the Sky then Porco Rosso then Kiki's Delivery Service...

ANd those are all of his I've seen...

Grave of the Fireflies is awesome. Recommend to even those who dislike anime.

Akira was good...

I liked what I saw of Rurouni Kenshin...

I liked the whole Dragonball thing up until Goku kills Frieza and becomes a Super Saya-jin. Toriyama should have stopped there like he planned....

Evangelion's good, although I still need to finish it...

Excel Saga's fun...

I enjoyed Tenchi Muyo and Tenchi Universe....

Cowboy Bebop brings warm feelings to my heart...

And, of course, the almight .hack//SIGN, the birthplace of the name Ginkasa (Ginkan + Tsukasa).

Anyway...

S'all..

Excel Saga and Puni Puni Poemy!

Excel Saga had its down moments and up moments. (up being episode 26)

Puni Puni Poemy: Download it and watch it. Its two episodes. Make sure there is no one who will get offended by bad stuff in the room. P.P.P = Excel Saga x 4947284723872348947. :]

[Ginkasa]

Oh man, episode 26.

/me hides eyes

Good thing I was home alone...

I downloaded Endless Waltz and it is indeed Bad Ass.

[Acebot44]

I don't watch any anime shows, but the movie "Grave of the Fireflies" was pretty awesome.

[DarkMaster]

Oh yeah, I forgot about .hack//SIGN, that was a wicked show.
