I consider FMA: Brotherhood the summit of Shounen, and the way a good shounen should be.
I don't say I hate shounen, I just hate cheap shounen.


Pretend Bleach added a big Battle against Aizen shortly after Ichigo rescues Rukia and then called it a day. It would have been a terrific anime not much lower in Quality than FMA but as it is it turns quite terrible later on.
I actually consider Naruto to be a good anime, if you cut out all the fillers and ignore Sasuke, it has a huge beautiful world thats getting explored and culminates in a war against an admittedly tacky opponent but mostly its pretty good.

Short and long running animes are a completely different genre, long anime can add a scale and elaboration to its world that simply can not be achived in the short run while shorter animes can focus on delivering the core conflict in the best possible manner without too many distractions.

For example in FMA i couldnt care less about the world itself but the characters are etched into my mind while in Naruto made me care about the world itself while i for the life of me can't remember every character except the actually important ones.

I always suggest Saikano. It's one of my absolute favourites!
Then we have others I really like:
Spiral ~suiri no kizuna~
Bakemonogatari
Serial Experiments Lain
Nichijou
... Hmm, I can't think of any else to recommend at the moment.

I left some animes out in my previous post

Puella Magi Madoka Magica. I know what everybody think when see images of this anime "hey, but that is a typical mahou shoujo PoS"(I just didn't watched it back then because spoilers were under every rock), I need to say that isn't... AT ALL. I warn that you need to prepare for a major mind screw though.

Gunslinger Girl. I had it in mind last post, but didn't wanted to recommend because the manga is better. but the anime(first season) is excellent, is a fine work and the changes that where made was to explain better the setting(and give a dramatic final). Season 2 was made by another studio and changed dramatically the dark and gloomy style for a cartoony one that doesn't fit very well(think about playing Zelda Twilight Princess and then pick up Wind Waker immediately after), but ignoring that fact is a good adaptation. If you liked the anime I highly recommend reading the manga, I just finished volume 14(of 15) and is outstanding. this is my second favorite series of all time.

Samurai Champloo. I don't know how nobody(including myself in my previous post) has mentioned this, just watch it.

Gosick. If you enjoy mystery and detective stories this is for you.

Serial Experiments Lain. prepare your brain though, can explode for too much information.

I ride the FMA Brotherhood bandwagon too. one of the best anime I watched in my life, I really like how studio Bones work(they are behind Captain Earth and Gosick too). I think I'll start the manga soon.

I can't properly recommend Monster as I haven't watched it yet, but is in my to watch list since a while(I've been killing shorter animes first to shorten my list).

and for the grand finale:
Digimon. season 1 and 3 are my favorites(I still need a rewatch of 2 and 4 though), Savers(season 5) was good too. this is my number one favorite series of all time.

Hell, I don't think that is the general opinion. Madoka Magica is not a typical Mahou Shoujo, and it is actually quite good, the best thing ever made by Shaft IMHO.
And anything that contains some form of time travel is an automatic win for me.

50 replies and almost 500 views thanks for all the recomendations guys :)


Maybe you'll like some of these:
Air
Black Cat
Full Metal Panic!
Tales of Abyss
Escaflown


Air sounds good but doesnt look very good xD
Black cat minus the Main character looking insanely generic it looks fun :)
FMP and Escaflown despite me loving Eureka seven and Code Geass i dislike Mecha anime xD
Tales of the Abyss... i've never been a fan of the tales of games sooo

funny story about FMA brotherhood i heard a lot of good things about FMA but i never started to watch it but one day after rewatching Bounen no Xamdou [Xamd lost memories] i noticed how it was produced by bones so i checked out Soul eater HATED it then FMA loved it ;)

I always suggest Saikano. It's one of my absolute favourites!

Nanatsu no Taizai - very good underrated anime

To Aru Majutsu no Index S1/S2 - worth watching if you like science and magic comedy/action.

To Aru Kagaku no Railgun - From girl's point of view. Season 2 is start around season 1 of Index time.

Hmm perhaps it has some harem elements, but is not harem anime. Sure guy is have females as allies, but never the romantic interest. Also this anime is not like DxD, Sekirei or Sora no Otoshimono. I would not have liked it, if it was like said anime. I too don't like such anime, too silly/dumb for me.

One Piece? Ignore the episodes after the time skip and its really good.

And everything with Naruto before the time skip is great.

Time skips seem to break animes.
