oh man I love comedy
Samurai champloo like James said is a mix of both.

Other good shows in the action, with out to much comedy genre
08th Ms team
Canaan
Hellsing OVA
Lupin the III if your into old cartoons, but has a lot of comedy.
Ghost in the shell also have some good action in them, just look at the amvs in my top ten


Avoid watching anime on Youtube though, either download it or find better streams from places like Hulu or veoh, or buy them, but considering this would be your first steps I doubt youd want to do that. try to avoid the bootlegs like what Loka put up <.<

My first anime was Berserk. If you know whats good for you, you will watch Berserk. UTE can testify to that.

I don't really think it's "anime", but I never thought I would like anything even remotely close.. but Death Note is a great animated series. Check it out. It's about a notebook that can kill by simply writing someones name, time of death, and way of death. It normally belongs to the death gods, however one of them drops it into the human realm and human boy finds it...and there are all kinds of twists and turns. Really really good.

It started out as manga.

Yeah but by the second season it got stupid, sgt frog is both comedy and action by the way

if your looking for pure action Black Lagoons a pretty good choice.

Most anime started out as mangas. Anime nerds prefer to read the mangas since they add more to the story where as animes might cut information (small or big) from the story line. For example, Berserk stops at 25 episodes, but the manga continues. I don't know WHY they did this, but its enough to piss you off and want to go look at the manga to continue the story.

hey fuck you loka. manga>anime. you get so much more of the story without all the sidetrack bullshit of whatever network is airing the series.

hey! i didn't say i don't like mangas. i was just pissed cause i was like "wtf thats it?" and this particular one is rare to find in the US cause Darkhorse rarely publishes them and you can only find them online for $$$$. I read the Bleach mangas since they also neglect info and then watch them. :P

come on loka, its the internet. you can find anything you dream of here...
