Recomend me some good anime.
 

Yeah, so I just bought a bunch of fighting game anime/cartoons. (Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, Art Of Fighting) but I'm looking to get into some good anime.. so yeah.

Also, Champloo is already on my list..

Description plz

Boobs, you say? Shall have to order this.

Any others?

I suppose Neon Genesis is pretty good.

I've read the manga, I'll give it a try.

Yeah, Ghost In The Shell (the movie) is pretty hott. The series that followed GitS: Stand Alne Complex) is even better. It used to show on Cartoon Network. Missed the last few eps due to being in Canada.

Naruto is pretty good. The Japanese version avec subtitles is considerably better due to the annoying English version voices. It is about these kids growing up in a ninja village, learning moves and going on missions and shit. English version is only 3 episodes in on Cartoon Network, Japanese version is at episode 151, as of last week. www.narutochuushin.com for the Japanese version.

Bleach is the shit, too. It's only in Japanese w/ subtitles right now (get it via torrent at www.animesuki.com) and is 49 episodes in. It's about this kid with unusually high spirit power and can see ghosts as a result. He meets a death god while she is on a mission to kill a hollow (corrupted soul) and their lives intertwine when he has to take her powers after she gets injured in battle. If you are going to follow anyof these, FOLLOW THIS ONE.

I guess there's Inuyasha on Cartoon Network during Adult Swim, but that is so ridiculously far into the plot, that you'll never catch up.

Yu Yu Hakusho was pretty good until Cartoon Network gayed it up with ridiculous editing. It was on Adult Swim, then they PGed it so they could show it during the day. It's about this guy who dies, but earns his life back in exchange for becoming a spirit detective (ie demon hunter). Also, this guy has the most bastardish teachers of all time for some reason.

Ninja Scroll is a pretty good anime movie. It's about ninjas, btw. :shifty:

Spirited Away was a decent movie. Not violent or anything. More of a family thing, but good nonetheless.

Metropolis is overrated, IMO, but everyone shits themselves over it. Decent movie. It's about robots or something. It's actually pretty screwed up.

Akira is hailed as the greatest amine movie ever. Good, not great.

Lupin III is a pretty funny series, but the dialog is fucked because it's from 1977 but all the references are to stuff from the last 5 years in the English version.

That's all I remember right now.

There was this one about wolves and other other animals and stuff and there's this animal god or watever. It was pretty screwed up, but alright. Can't remember the title. It had these weird little white creatures that made rattling sounds when they shook their heads.

I will post more if I remember.

Everything Funky said is spot on, especially about Naruto and Bleach, but go to these sites instead for Naruto and Bleach ---> www.narutofan.com and www.bleachportal.net :y:

I also recommend Fullmetal Alchemist. It's about two brothers who lose some things (namely an arm, a leg, and an entire body) trying to revive their dead mother. Story basically follows them trying to obtain the Philosopher's Stone, a stone that will amplify their powers.

Rurouni Kenshin and Cowboy Bebop are always fun to watch.

I also recommend Paranoia Agent or 'Read or Die,' but they're pretty weird so you might hate it.

And if you're into cars, there's always Initial D.


P.S. If you wanna look up info on the anime posted, go here ---> http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php

Sssssssssssssss thanks, I knew I was forgetting something.

X:The Movie is a mind fuck if I've ever seen one, not gonna try and even describe it, just see it. They crammed an entire manga series in 2 hours heh. I've heard the TV series is better but I haven't seen that and rather enjoyed X


And I really enjoy the Sailor Moon series in its original japanese format w/eng subs but I doubt that's what you are looking for.

Personaly I enjoyed the Street Fighter Movies, Armitage III, Dragon-Half (it was an unfinished series though) and Urusei Yatsura. Can't say I enjoyed Ghost in the Shell but then I do enjoy crazy stupid random stuff compared to straight out Sci Fi.

Yeah, most of whats been mentioned here is the goods (cept for initial D that sucks)

My friend has been RANTING about Bleach, so yeah. I'll try that.

thankz yo

Yeah the SF movies are awesome. (2 and Alpha)

Your friend is right. That is the best series I've ever seen.

Let's not forget that it has the worst pacing ever.

Anything by Miyazaki is good (if a little more aimed at children)

Princess Mononoke
Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind
Porco Rosso
Castle of Cagliostro (Lupin III movie)
Grave of the Fireflies (maybe a little heavy)

are all awesome.

Street Fighter Alpha was/is ass.

Bible Black:shifty:

Funky said it all, I believe. Naruto is currently my fav. show (in Japanese) and Bleach I'm patiently getting in to. I get those shows by narutocentral.com and bleachtv.com. Bebop, definitely the best I'd say as it's short and sweet, along with FLCL, even shorter but very crazy. Full Metal Alchemist is also great, along with GITS: the series (not the movies, don't like it). EVA and Escaflowne too.

Funky, I think you were talking about Wolf's Rain, as those were wolves but when they spoke to each other, they were shown as people. I didn't really watch that one, seems kinda meh. Oh, and if you like Paranoia Agent, I just saw the movie Tokio Godfathers and it's even better I think.

Naruto and Bleach both started off awesome.

However, currently in the manga Bleach is crap, and Naruto is pretty bad, though not on the level of crap that is Bleach.

One Piece (NOT the English version) is better than them both.

It's so hard finding all the episodes of One Piece :(

Cowboy Bebop is amazing. My iPod is full of the wonders of Yoko Kanno

This is the one I was going to recommend. It's the anime I've enjoyed the most.

Got em all. :love:

Nope, not that one. The one I am talking about is a movie that takes place in a forest or some shit. Wolf's Rain is pretty shit.

That was only last year, wasn't it, junior?

You want some candy, little boy? Maybe you want to finger paint a picture for your mommy?

Funky, the movie you're thinking of is Princess Mononoke. One of Hayao Miyazaki's great masterpieces.

Respect the Kodama, bitches.

Wolf's Rain does lick ass, however.

As for good anime to watch. Cowboy Bebop and Trigun are awesome. Spirited Away was mentioned earlier, and it fucking rocks the house. Another awesome Miyazaki movie is Kiki's Delivery Service.

Am I the only one that likes the funny crazy random stuff (apart from Armitage and SF)? :$

No. I actually really liked a show that Adult Swim was running called FLCL, Fooly Cooly. Really weird, random and strange, but fucking bad ass.

heard of it but never seen it.

Random- I wouldnt mind seeing how I looked in anime :p

I'm not sure, but I think there's only like four or five episodes. Five at the most. You should try and track it down.

If I come across it I might watch.
