Anime recommendations, anyone?

Well, I'm apparently gonna lose my computer privileges soon, so I figured I'd catch up on my anime. I honestly havent been watching anime since... Death Note I guess, and I never even watched all of it. (I read the manga though.) So far, the noly thing I watched this summer was Code Geass, which was AMAZING. I'm currently on Code Geass R2, whch is keeping me as entertained as Code Geass did. Here is my list of recommended animes that my friend gave me:

Code Geass
Code Geass: R2
Lucky Star
Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagan
Neon Genesis Evangelion

Yeah, lol, I just realized a lot of them are mech animes o-o; Either way, I wanted to ask GBAtemo what you guys thought about these, and what you recommend.

You should check out Soul Eater, it's pretty good. :)
The only problem is that is not ended, but there should be like 30 episodes in english...

Or you can watch Rozen Maiden too, it's 3 season long (~10 episodes per season), it's really great!
 
The only one I've seen there is Lucky Star, one of me and my friends' favorites.

I like watching Clannad, it's a funny high school one, it's a bit serious sometimes though. Make you want to cry at the end of the movie. :P

I don't watch many more anymore. I watched H2O Footprints, but it's pervy. :ph34r: :P

I don't watch many action animes mostly just comedy, but that's really all I suggest. Shigofumi is kinda strange, all mystery... Hard to follow sometimes...
 
I second soul eater which is very good and also D.Grayman.

P.S: Tengan Toppa Gurren Lagann was out of this world and tototally awesome. I can't wait for the movie! :rolleyes:
 
School Rumble - hilarious romantic comedy

FLCL - It's by Gainax and it's 6 episodes long, just watch it

Full Metal Panic!, Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid, Full Metal Panic? FUMOFFU - funny mech series

Cowboy BeBop and Trigun - Best animes made in 1998, a must watch

Excel Saga - hilarious gag anime
 
Gurren Lagann is very good.. I highly recomend it!

And there are at least 3 topics about anime recommendations in the Off-Topic forum.. take a look at those :wink:

S(h)e's already watched it.

[quote name='DaRk_ViVi' post='1357264' date='Aug 22 2008, 01:28 PM']@Sephiroth: you forgot your avatar! Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu is pretty good too. :)[/quote]
:O

Very good show, although the Eng dub is a tad sucky in my opinion

Ah i dunno, i always watch them in japanese with subtitles (italian or english). :P
 
Yeah, I guess I forgot to mention i did see a few of these. I already watched FLCL, was excellent, but kind of weird... I also saw Suzumiya, I LOVED that anime :3 It was incredible.
 
Bleach. It's the best out there.
Naruto if you're patient. Story is very slow.
D. Gray Man is pretty popular too.
 
Evangelion and Gurren Lagann are excellent out of your friends recommendation, Lucky Star is okay.. it's full of Haruhi references so you'll like it if your into that kinda stuff.

I'll second FMP! and it's sequels and also recommend Dennou Coil and Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei + sequel.

We know War is a guy.

Another vote for Rozen Maiden.
 
[quote name='xcalibur' post='1081730' date='Apr 11 2008, 05:36 PM']Wow.. where to start?

Cowboy Bebop (Best. Anime. Evar.)

Gundam 00 (one of the most moving anime I ever watched)
Samurai Champloo (Close second, ironically very similair to cowboy bebop)
Tengen Toppa Gurren Langann (A mecha anime which is awesome as hell. Final battle makes no sense whatsoever though.)
Cromartie High School (Funny as hell.)
Death Note (Stupid premise, excellent execution)
Code Geass (Similiar to Death Note but with moar mecha)
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (I don't know why I like it, I just do.)
FLCL (Great series with a good dose of randomness.)
Futakoi Alternative (Don't ask.)
Bleach (Its a bit lacking lately though.)
Naruto (The same as Bleach.)
Full Metal Alchemist (nuff' said.)
Monster (Great psychological thriller, explosive ending.)
Studio Ghibli's films are all great too.
tekkaman blade/teknoman (old mecha series)
Macross Frontier (Nice mecha series)
Blood+ (Bit gory)
School Days (Messed up ending)
Samurai 7 (Great anime, takes the seven samurai and adds in mecha's)
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (Needs no comment)

Dragonball Z games are fun to play but except for that I've lost interest for it.[/quote]

You can tell I like mecha's.
And yes, I added haruhi twice.
Thats my post from this thread (with a few additions):

http://www.gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=82096

A lot of good recommendations there.
 
[quote name='armagedalbeebop' post='1357647' date='Aug 22 2008, 11:36 PM']i see nobody likes one piece :([/quote]

One piece is just like DBZ/Naruto/Bleach

Its one of those looooooooooooooooooooooooong anims where you can't just start watching and it takes ages to catch up.
I tried catching up on one piece in the holidays.
I downloaded 10 episodes at a time and watched them as the others were downloading.
I only got to about 160 before I got completely and utterly sick of it.
 
plz dont compare one piece to naruto\bleach\dbz
i see your point but that doesnt make one piece better worst or equal to those three



(i dont want a discussion about this)

I'm not comparing them in terms of quality. I'm comparing them in terms of length.

Would you prefer it if I compared it to something like inuyasha? :P
 
G
easy to watch anime ? Ryusei no Rockman & Ryusei no Rockman Tribe.

=Megaman STarforce... but please for the sake of god watch the Japanese dubbed ones... NOT the english ones !
 
Full Metal Alchemist

Bleach (as above lost its appeal in later seasons :( )

Witchblade

**********************************************
not strictly anime but worth a watch anyway ...

Animatrix

Aeon Flux (Animated collection)

Hellboy (Animated series)

    Just post on the Wii section if this is what you're looking for. https://gbatemp.net/forums/nintendo-wii.105/

    The general chit-chat is usually for off-topic banter or what-have-you, and a lot of modding-related questions go unnoticed quite quickly due to other on-going talks.

    Hey guys quick question: How can there be handwriting's that "looks like a guys" and "looks like a girls" ?
  • OctoAori20 @ OctoAori20:
    Hrm... Idunno-
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Cranesbill, Everybody's writing is unique, doesn't necessarily apply differently to gender.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I write usually in curved and fancy, because this is how my family writes.
  • Cranesbill @ Cranesbill:
    Grammar doesn’t matter in this situation
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @IAMXVII mholdschool discord server, for one
  • Cranesbill @ Cranesbill:
    I’m saying like there was someone who wanted to know whose paper this was since there was no name and he said, “It’s probably a guy since it has a guy handwriting”
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    which is probably where you found the patch
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    wtf is "guy handwriting"
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @IAMXVII making a thread in the right section always gets better answers than the shoutbox
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @The Real Jdbye, Discord servers should never be a dumping ground, that results to gatekeeping and becoming lost forever. But what IF Discord never existed? Surely that would eradicate the problem.
  • Cranesbill @ Cranesbill:
    THATS WHAT IM FUCKING ASKINH HOLY SHIT
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @The Real Jdbye, "wtf is 'guy handwriting'?" - That's what I'm guessing. Is this somewhat a stereotype or am I misunderstood?
  • Cranesbill @ Cranesbill:
    Okay you know what bye bye
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Girls usually have a more prim and proper handwritting.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Guys usually have a messier handwriting.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    There are exceptions but it is usually this.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Could be seen as a stereotype, but it does fit in most cases.
