Know any good anime?

Postby Vulpine_Alchemist » Sun Jun 24, 2012 2:28 am

Hi! I am an anime NUT, and I think I am running out of things to watch and read. Aaahhhh! So, I was wondering if anyone has any good stories that the could mention. I'm in the middle of Angel Beats, but that's not going to last long, and I don't have anything lined up. Hheeelllpppp meeeeeee!!!!
I have already read/watched
Naruto (Great, first few seasons! Manga too! Now...oh god this is boring...why am I reading it?)
FullMetal Alchemist (Season 1-This is interesting! Wait-lol what? Season 2/Manga- *Drools* This is AMAZING!!! Why must it eennnddd!?)
Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji (Manga-Great! Season 1- Perfect! :clap: !! Season 2- Uh....poor Ciel..)
Ouran High School Host Club (Ahahhahahahahha!! So cute!)
DNAngel (Love this one, too. Don't like the English voice actors..)
Fruits Basket (Kyo! Yuki! Awesome! Tohru! Not so awesome...)
Soul Eater (*Watches one episode* No, thank you...)
FairyTail (WHAT ON EARTH!?! No one can have a chest that big....crazy artist..blahhh...)
Ao no Exorcist/Blue Exorcist (Nothing better. Am still in love with it.)
Arisa (Creepy! Why no anime?)
Spiral of Destiny (OMG SO WEIRD AND CREEPY LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT)
Spice and Wolf (So-so. Kinda boring.)
Chobits (Stupid. All I can say.)
Suzuka (Bleh.)
A Certain Magical Index (Ok. Not my favorite, but good.
A Certain Scientific Railgun (Ok. Not my favorite, but good.)
xxxHolic (Weiieredddd. Don't like the art.)
Shattered Angels (What IS this? :what: )
Okami-San and her Seven Companions (....meh.)
Vampire Knight (Eh, I like it. Stopped after a while though.)

So,yeah. Please don't say Bleach. I am too scared to try that one.
Thank you!

Mushishi is awesome! I've read the last few books which they haven't made into the anime, but I've watched the whole anime series, and it's really good dubbed (Just sayin', because some people prefer subs) Watch Mushishi, it's awesome, but a bit more dark than other animes.

Hetalia! It's like the opposite of Mushishi. It's happy and cheerful, energetic and random! There's 4 seasons, but I prefer it subbed. The manga is good, but the anime's more popular. Season 1 and 2 is okay dubbed, but 3 and 4 are defiantly subbed for me. (But beware the fanbase!!) Also, there is no specific story-line (Except for the side-stories like "Chibitalia" and "Boss Spain and Chibi Romano")

One Piece is an awesome manga! I don't like their voices in the anime, they don't fit them at all! Zoro is 19, but he sounds like he's in his late 20s! And Luffy sounds much too young! And Nami's voice just doesn't fit. (I've seen one episode) Read the manga, it's hilarious. I'm re-reading it, even though it's not even done yet. It's more happy and cheerful and energetic, like Hetalia, but it actually has a story-line.

I apologize for there being SO MANY. xD I couldn't help myself. All of these are anime, but I've also put their manga status if I know it (ex, released in the US/Canada or not).

If you're not looking for a long list, then I recommend Chi's Sweet Home. Each episode is only around 3 minutes and it is a very sweet, cute, funny, and at times heart-wrenching anime. There's no 'action' in the sense of violence, for it's a show meant for little kids.
The manga series is exactly like the anime, I was reading it my senior year of High School and couldn't stop laughing at Chi's antics or crying when she'd express her grief for missing her mother. It's one of my favorite series.


SCIENCE FICTION
Ghost in the Shell / Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex Second Gig (season 2)
It's my second favorite series, but it'll be boring to you if you can't stand literally episodes of dialog with no action. It's deep, sad, and the music is top tier. It's a great manga series also, a lot more comedy in the manga series.
Texhnolyze
My favorite anime ever. I have yet to find anyone on CS who knows what it is. People say it's boring until episode 5, but I beg to differ. Though, it does begin to come together and get faster after episode 5. No one has picked up on this in an English speaking country, so you'd be stuck with subs. No English manga.
Darker then Black
I've never seen this, but plan to. I've heard it's pretty awesome.
Casshern Sins
Casshern Sins is a reebot of an old anime called Cassharn, and it currently airing on Adult Swim's Toonamie block. I love this show, although the first episode isn't all too great, it really picks up.
Deadman Wonderland
I liked this, it was alright, it didn't go in the direction I hoped it would and the main character cries and whines every single episode. The plot and premise are pretty amazing, though. Also on Adult Swim's Toonami block currently. Manga is being milked for money, it's in the $80's.
Dennou Coil
I'm not too sure what it's about, I've only seen the first few episodes, but it's great so far. xD There is no English dub version of this, no American company has picked up on it, so you'd be stuck with fan subs.
Cowboy Bebop
God tier anime in my book. It's funny and sad. Great manga series.
ZOIDS: Chaotic Century
Giant mecha gundam animals that are sentient. Planet Zi is constantly at war. Also one of my favorite anime series. Sadly, I think the manga is only in Japan.
Serial Experiment Lain
It's crazy. I honestly felt like I was losing my mind watching this. I can't even begin to explain what it is.
Dot Hack//
An amazing series. Sign is the first season. It's pretty awesome, and if you start to like it, just skip Dusk and play the PS2 video games it's based off of [infection/mutation/outbreak/quarantine]. Dusk almost ruined the anime branch for me. The anime adaptation of the original games is just horrible. Dot Hack// aka .Hack// is my favorite video game series, and it's a decent anime (excluding Dusk). It's about video games within video games. Not sure on manga status, there are reading books of Dusk though.

FANTASY
Samurai Champloo
The manga of this is great! So is the anime, it might be coming back to Adult Swim's Toonami block. It's due for it.
Zach Bell
So, I haven't seen it since the original Toonami died long ago. I remember liking it, but I admit that it's like Bleach in that the further it goes on, the worse it got. x: Little kids called Momodos (?) who fight each other using spell books. They're basically Pokemon. Only not.
Bobobo-Bo-Bobobo
I'm probably the only person on Earth who loves this show. I love it's crude and sometimes corny humor, it's randomness, and how it makes fun of everything. Bobobo is an anime that makes fun of stereotypes in anime. Have one manga also, and love it to bits.
Yu Yu Hakusho
It's been a LONG time since I've watched this, but this anime and manga are both amazing. It's like a science fiction InuYasha...almost.

ANIMALS
Jungle Emperor Leo
The 1983 (new adventures) one is my favorite. It's AMAZING. Puts that rip-off Simba to shame. It's about Leo, a while lion and the new king of the jungle, following his struggle to keep his friends safe from evil poachers. No English manga.
Ginga Nagareboshi Gin
It's about dogs trying to overthrow an evil bear king to protect themselves [and humans]. One of my faves. It's a pretty old anime. Also has a sequel called Ginga Densetsu Weed. No English manga for either.
Chi's Sweet Home / Chi's New Address (season 2)
About a little female kitten named Chi who lives with her family, the Yamadas. It's all about her and how she looks about life. There's some pretty sad moments, but if you ever need a laugh I recommend this. The manga of this is pretty great also, I only have volume one due to it's price, but I love it. One of my favorite shows also. Each show is only 3 or 6 minutes long, so the series won't take but more than a day to finish! I HIGHLY recommend this.
Wolf's Rain
Wolves + end of the world + science fictions = yes please. Two books of manga.

aaaaand Dimond Alice* already mentioned One Piece. The manga is awesome. I'd recommend the Japanese English SUB over the dub because 4kids pretty much ruined it. Uncut Japanese subbed version is the one to watch.
There's also Rurouni Kenshin which is a great fantasy manga and apparently a pretty popular anime too.
