Anime..

[Ivan The Awesome]

Anybody here watch Anime? I haven't watched anything in a while. I think the last thing I watched was Darker than Black.

Anyone have suggestions? I'm the mood to download some and watch new series.

[Razzy]

I was into anime in my teens. Most of the ones I'd still go back and watch you have probably seen. My favorite is still Princess Mononoke for movis and Evangelion for series.

If you haven't seen Jin-Roh (movie) or Blue Gender they are definitely worth it.

[Ivan The Awesome]

That Jin-Roh one looks pretty sweet. The Brigade soldiers remind me a lot of the Killzone soldiers. Hah. Thanks for the suggestions.

I also, lied, the last anime I saw was Summer Wars, not so long ago. I used to keep up with Naruto and Bleach, but they started getting very repetitive and I stopped watching. I haven't the slightest Idea what's going on with that anymore. I read the manga more often than watching the series anyway

I'm on and off with Anime but the last one I finished in its entirety was Hajime no Ippo(The Fighting Spirit) which is a boxing anime. It was pretty good and interesting. Kind of makes you want to get a heavy bag. Other than that, do you have any preferences? Dub/Sub?

[Ivan The Awesome]

Never liked the Dubbed versions of anime. It doesn't always translate as well. I rather see the Sub version.

Never liked animes, always thought they were lame until I came across Miyazaki. I got into his movies for like a month, watching one every few days. I didn't even like them that much, but I was drawn back for some reason.

Spirited Away specifically really captivated me.

Anyone wanna suggest anything that I can watch that is similar to Miyazaki films?

[Seal (SmittyIsOurSavior)]

And as for anime series, my best friend watches a lot of anime, and he does the whole Full Metal Alchemist, One Piece, Bleach kinda deal.

He also raves abut Avatar, but I dunno if that counts as real anime. There's a brand new spinoff of Avatar too, about the next avatar. I watched an episode of that with him, seemed alright.

I dunno if this helps at all, but I'm just tossing out some of the ones I've heard of.

[NCstoner420]

I used to watch it from time to time but my favorite is Cowboy Bebop.

[Inimicus]

One of my favorites is Noir. Two female assasins trying to unravel the mysteries of their past

Fan video that does a good job of capturing the visual tone but totaly misses the boat when it comes to the music.

[Ruff]

Yu Yu Hakusho is probably my favorite, but it's definitely hard to watch now because the animation is so antiquated.

Read or Die is really good, if you haven't watched it yet.

Mushishi is also really, really good. Definitely worth a watch.

Here's a couple from a couple different genres that I could think of from the top of my head that were pretty good. A lot of these fit into more than one genre, nearly all of them have some sort of comedy element. (I can't watch super serious poo). The top 3 in each row are the ones I absolutely recommend. The last 2 in each row are kind of niche ones that you may or may not like. (Very hit or miss)

edit: I tried to "copy and paste from word" to get a table and it fuged up when I posted. D:

[Ruff]

There's also Outlaw Star, which is definitely a classic, and definitely awesome.

I've heard Blackblood Brothers is decent, as well. And I think it's really short, like, 12 eps.
