The Favorite Anime Topic

[XerdoPwerko]

Xerdo's Favourite Anime list
(Not in any particular order)

1) Cowboy Bebop / Cowboy Bebop the Movie (Did you know that it's required to watch the whole series in many Film schools? There's a whole course on Cowboy Bebop)

2) Galaxy Fraulein Yuna Returns (The 3 episode OVA - the Series is not that great. This one is written by Satoru Akahori, an expert in suddenly depressing his audience. Who would have thought Yuna could have serious moments?).

3) Shinseiki Evangelion

4) Macross Plus (The Movie. First work of Watanabe, the Same director as Cowboy Bebop. You can see the style)

5) SDF Macross (The last 7 episodes are boring, though)

6) Genshiken (An anime about people who like anime)

7) Yakitate Japan (Like Captain Tsubasa... but about BAKING BREAD!)

8) Chobits (The design in it is SO great!)

9) Saint Seiya (But only the Mexican dub, because it's SO bad it's good! The series is quite cool in the japanese original, though. The Hades saga is great)

10) Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon (Come on, this is a classic! I, at least, enjoy a little bit of shoujosity and magical girlitude!)

11) Agent Aika (Me and my mom watched this on Cable, also. Believe or not, my favourite thing about Aika - beside Rion - is the music. It's so cheesy it's great! And at 72 panty-shots per episode, it's got a little thing for everybody)

12) Tales of Eternia (I like this because I loved the game. The anime is QUITE mediocre, but I really enjoyed it anyway. I'm too much of a fan... and Coleena is really cute. I hope they put her in the PSP version of ToE... not likely)

[Valdeargos]

Cowboy Bebop (series, English dub)
Lupin III (series, English dub though I get the feeling it'd be better uncut and untranslated)
Excel Saga (only the first couple dozen or so, and only subtitled)
Perfect Blue (dub)

Since nobody mentioned these yet (I think):

Which one? ;)

Both of em. The original 80s OAV especially.

Shouldn't this thread be moved to the "Everything Japan" forum?

'Panzer Dargoon the Anime' was an absolute masterpiece and glorified the name of the series to divine status!

Oh yes, Aura Battler Dunbine is class. The DVDs can be had for like $12 each online in the US (at least the last 8 of the 12. The first 4 are around $20 unless they've retroactively repriced them since they were released).

It was a joke. Quite possibly the WORST anime ever made (not as bad as DBZ though, let's not go there). And a huge blight on the good name of Panzer Dragoon.

Should be on eBay for not much, VHS. Saw the LD on YJ as well.

[XerdoPwerko]

Yup, DBZ is PRETTY bad.

And everybody I know has seen like... every episode. At least those of us who survived the 90's in Mexico

I know I have.

Why? No Idea. Hell, if I find an episode now, I'll watch it.

Weird, huh?

[Alchy]

I wouldn't watch it if you paid me.

[Greatsaintlouis]

Just finished Kanon, which has skyrocketed to one of my favorite animes ever. Beautiful story, but it's damn sad though.

On a semi-related note(for anime, at least), while I have never seen an episode of Naruto, I found out that real naruto is that oddly shaped fish slices with the pink spiral in the middle that you can get with ramen or udon. This is both enlightening and reassuring, as I was always a little disconcerted by the fact that I never knew what the hell the stuff was, much less what it is called. I can sleep better at night now.

[SuperGrafx]

Ninja Scroll
Ninja Resurrection
Mezzo
Robotech series
Cowboy Bebop

Those are the most memorable animes for me that I've seen recently.
