[Essentials] Anime

[helpme]

ive just watched the first season of Vampire Knight this morning & it was quite good

 

[TodayiSawMyHeroF]

Wow, where is prince of tennis? XD

+1 for skip beat, prince of tennis, and code geass.

 

[Shabadage]

Noir +1
MADLAX
El Cazador de la Bruja

They're all part of Bee Train's Girls with Guns anime trilogy.

Noir is the more drawn out of the three.
Madlax starts like Noir, then goes off into left field but is still enjoyable.
El Cazador de la Bruja is it's own beast, and more like a "normal" anime in regards to tone and drawing style. The weakest of the 3, but still good.

 

[Nocturnius]

+1 Peacemaker (Peacemaker Kurogane)
+1 Busou Renkin
+1 Nodame Cantabile
+1 Too Heart

 

[mewcuss]

+1 Metropolis - Stunningly beautiful visuals
+1 Hellboy(sword of storms) - If this counts as anime. It might be a bit too western for the fanboys.
+1 Urotsukidojo - Dragonball Z on Hentai acid.
+1 Dragonball Z - The greatest Dragonball series.
+1 Pokemon - Both DBZ and Pokemon's series/saga's seem to take ages to build. The films outclass
the series in terms of non stop action but the DBZ films don't always tie in with the series.
+1 Yu-gi-oh - I got into this because Sky1 had nothing better to show at 4am and there was nothing
else on the rest of the channels. I just started watching YGO5D's and that seems pretty
sweeet too.
+1 Fist of the Northstar - Both film and series are great. Akira meets Street Fighter
+1 Spirited Away
+1 Kagaku ninja tai Gatchaman - Or Battle of the Planets as it was more commonly called in the UK
or G force in the US

I felt sorry for Extreme Coder about telling him to get off his ass when he had all that traumatizing shit happen to him in one day, and I decided to do something about it as I was trying to find an excuse to not do this English paper I have to hand in tomorrow, so I updated the list. I'm not sure if I will be as consistent, but I will try unless Extreme Coder wants to take over.

I've changed a couple things, such as additions to rules, taking out hentai, titles of anime being listed twice, etc. Feel free to correct me any mistakes you see on the list.

Spoiler

The usual rules of other Essential topics go here as well:

- You can add more anime in future posts but don't mention an anime that you've recommended previously.
- Also add more anime by adding posts, not editing old ones.
*NEW* - -1 votes COUNT towards the total amount.
Also, please use English names when available instead of Japanese.
*NEW* However, it is acceptable if you provide both.

If you notice any mistakes, please let me know (as there are bound to be some here X_X )
