Top Animes

Hey guys

Not sure if there is anything else like this but was just wondering if anyone here is into anime so I have posted this asking for people top anime shows. Have to say currently I am loving black lagoon (Revy is the best character ever) and I am getting back into Cowboy Bebop in a big way. Anyone else got any faves to share?

Rurouni Kenshin wins hands down.

Then Naruto.

Ohhh Kenshin that is pretty good :D

Bleach :D
downloading all episodes ryt now :D

Anime is one of those things that I'd like to like but struggle to get into it. I'm currently downloading (naughty naughty) Cowboy Bebop series 1 (no idea what it's about but seems to be highly rated) and Ghost inthe Shell SAC 1. Also downloaded Golgo 13 because I remember seeing it when I was about 14.

What's the best for a beginner? Preferably not of the cutesy, school-girl and tentacle rape variety.

I used to watch Cowboy Bebop and Ghost in the Shell, Gundam Wing and a few others. But have lost track of it all now, do enjoy watching good Anime though! My lad likes watching Naruto and if i see any films worth doing i usually download them for him and me to watch.

never really watched any series to my shame - watched a few films - akira was prob my fav, and do enjoy them so should try a few - just of to add a few things to my rental list

I really loved Serial Experiments Lain - also Blue Gender, Neon Genesis Evangeline - these are all older series though

I liked Pani Poni Dash for some reason as well - it was nuts perhaps

one of the problems with anime - is there is so much of it - hard to choose - use to be a great web site for anime torrents - a lot of the subs were fan created which was great so that at the end of the episode there was a big write up about what happened because sometimes a simple sub translation isn't enough because the original idea was so complex and layered - unfortunatel the site now gone - still looking for another one that was as good as that

Lain, paranoia agent, Stand alone complex, cowboy bebop, blood+, talking abput animation on a whole, I also watched cities of gold recently, and jase and the wheeled warrior, ulysses 31, wolverine and the xman.

Deathnote, Akira and Bleach are my animes of choice at the moment (both the series and the films )

Naruto, Bleach, Fullmetal Alchemist... in that order

Jayce & the Wheeled Warriors was a bitchin cartoon and no mistaking. Hardly anyone I know seems to remember it though. How could you not remember a cast of Star Wars ripoffs in armoured cars fighting mutant plant-cars on giant space vines?! One o the best cartoon theme tunes too.


Bleach seems to be really popular and loads (relatively speaking) buy it from our section at work.

Deathnote, The reissue of Hellsing is getting played on my comp a lot at the min, Naruto can be quite good but again the new series (condensed and re mastered) DBZ is getting a lot of time too.
As for Anime films:

Akira, Vampire Hunter D (1&2), Fist of The North Star, Ninja Scroll, Urotsukudoji, Wicked City, Paprika, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Laputa, Perfect Blue all get played a lot, and I recently had a Patlabor-a-thon as I hadn't watched the 3rd one so I did them all

Oooo and I watched Origin - Spirits of the past which was quite good and Strait Jacket which again was pretty decent, about a month or so ago so they will be getting a replay very soon as will the last series of Guyver - Bio Boosted Armour. I even have the live action movies to watch Mark Hamill at his finest before I start them again
