Best anime evar

[Rezel]

My favorite in terms of Anime has to be Full metal Panic,

Full metal Panic Fumoffu is absolutely, and utterly side splitting in how hilarious it is. you have to admit, the fact that he pulls out a shotgun, and shoots the karate dude in the face with a practice slug in a hand to hand combat match is insanely funny.

I absolutely love your list

GoldenBoy was groundbreaking for what an ecchi series should be, Monster was an amazing drama, and Major was surprisingly good imho

1) Hellsing
This anime is incredible. It's what a vampire story should be. No sparkles, no teenage angst, just a bad-ass vampire that could destroy the world if he wanted to. It's also one of the best english dubs i've ever seen. In fact, you must watch this one in english. It's set in england, so you need the english accents.

2) Neon Genesis EVANGELION
The god of anime. A literal mindfuck whenever you watch it. only rated lower than hellsing because the protagonist is a whiney pussy. oh yeah, and the last 2 episodes

3) Trinity Blood
another vampire one, this time more like Vampire Hunter D. a special vampire-vampire (drinks vampire blood) works for the vatican, and tries to save the world from those out to destroy it.

4) Outlaw Star
iagine cowboy bebop, now make it better. Watch it in english, the dub's incredible. it's got a cat-girl, magic guns, and ships that box each other.

5) Gundam Seed
very very good mecha show. not much else to say. one of the best gundam shows i've seen. never watched 08th ms team, but of the original, G gundam, gundam x, gundam wing, and gundam 00 this is the best.

runners up:
gunXsword (mecha/western)
full metal alchemist: brotherhood (fma)
elfen leid (mindfuck to the nth degree)
inuyasha (my first anime, shut up)
Heroic Age (imagine battlestar galactica, with massive bio-mechanical creatures thrown in)

it was, but i got bored w/ it.

same w/ gunXsword. in fact, the only ones i've ever fnished were outlaw star, gundam seed, evangelion, trinity blood, and hellsing.

I love too many to truly pick a single 'favorite' out of them, and I'm feeling too lazy to make a detailed list like others seem to be doing. But I'll just drop a couple of names here.

For the longest time, I would answer this question automatically and without hesitation. And the answer was YuGiOh! ((Duel Monsters, of course, I've still yet to find anywhere that has the original series that follows more closely to the manga... ;_; wants it so baaaad...))

Honest to god, I'm not joking with you. I truly do love that series-- though I suggest any of you haters try watching the actual show instead of the 4kids crap they aired here on Saturday mornings. -_- There's nothing quite like a duel that takes place on the glass roof of a skyscraper with a bomb beneath your feet that's attached to your life point counter. When you loose... you DIE. None of this "*mock eerie voice and waves hands 'mystically'* and get transported into the Shadow Realm, oooooooo" crap.

And the Pandora duel is probably my favorite one ever... "By the way, if you loose, you get your feet cut off by this ankle-height buzsaw that's connected to your life point meter. Have fun with that."

Mostly though... I love the characters and all the background stuff. The idea of "Soul Rooms" really hit the mark with me and I've occasionally gotten the urge to try to design out what I think mine would look like... though I've always chickened out because drawing 'setting' type things have always been a weak point for me. ><* But yeah, the Soul Rooms and the idea of two spirits sharing the same body and the havoc this can cause...

Of course, it has nothing to do with my fetish for white/silver haired pretty boys... *fawns over Bakura*


... ;_; I wish I knew where my cards were... I've actually had a couple of people say they'd be willing to learn to play...


Aaaanyway! I think my new generic/easy answer if I'm told I can only list a single favorite, is now Monster. I am completely psyched about it coming out in the US and so can't wait until I can own it all... Now if only it didn't cost $40 per 15 episodes considering it's a 72 or so episode long series. *cries*


And I'm gonna shut up now and slink back into my dark corner... because this turned into an unnecessarily long, rambling, and completely irrelevant post...

o.O :poke:
i want you to play wcs once the server's back up. this will result in entertainment for all. strangely, you'd probably fit right in

It is hard to pick one for the best, so I will throw out a couple. First and foremost would have to be Ghost In The Shell, because of it's great action, sci-fi elements, and its a great political drama.

Next would be a three-way tie between Cowboy Bebop, FLCL, and Eureka Seven, all of which were great at what they did.

After that would be another threeway between Neon Genesis Evangelion, Fullmetal Alchemist (both and movie), and Black Lagoon. More of a list than one choice, but what can I say?

I will agree with your Eva and Hellsing, and raise you one Paranoia Agents and Serial Experiments Lain
