    This is one series that used to make me laugh so hard that tears would flow, it's a travesty it got liscensed in the west & totally fucked up. The fansubs used to be amazing. I'd have paid anything to get the entire series with english fansubs.

    I liked Digimon...

    After watching it again though, I realize its pretty childish. But I loved that shit for like a looooooong time, and watching the first season always makes me go on a nostalgia trip.

    I don't really have any other anime...in physical form anyway.

    The Arc the Lad anime was decent, but it was damn short.

    I think Evangelion is like this:

    Decent story, then it has the most retarded ending ever, everyone's emo, the mecha fights are awesome, but thats like maybe ~2~ hours of the whole series. The rest is Shinji going "UNFAMARU CEIRING ME SO RONERY SO ME MASTURBATURU TO UNCONSCIOUS WOMAN" Ok, that was dumb but you know.

    Its not as deep as its retarded fans claim it to be, its about as shallow as shallow gets, like a ton of JRPG storylines and etc.

    I love Hayao Miyazakais films, I think they are the only Animes I've seen that don't try to be deep or incredibly violent but still manage to captivate you in some way, and are pretty family friendly.

    EDIT: Yakumo, I noticed you mentioned Pom Poko. Yeah, thats probably the only Ghibli movie I didn't really like. It dragged on forever, almost all the Tanookies died anyway, and you could see their balls. Gross.

    Xenogears is MUCH deeper than Evangelion is and ever will be.
    Far as deep animes go though nothing beats the two Ghost in the Shell Movies.

    Ever notice how horribly animated Sailor Moon is?
    yet I still have a soft spot for it.

    Hokoto no ken needs some love

    Kenshiro Facts

    Kenshrio once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of light, went back in time, and killed Amelia Earhart while she was flying over the Pacific Ocean.

    If you ask Kenshrio what time it is, he always says, "Two seconds 'til." After you ask, "Two seconds 'til what?" he says You're already dead and you explode

    Kenshrio once shot down a German fighter plane with his finger, by yelling, "Bang!"

    Kenshiro can hit you so hard that he can actually alter your DNA. Decades from now your descendants will occasionally clutch their heads and yell "What The Hell was That?"

    Xenogears:pray:

    I think everyone my age had a thing for anime at one point, but I think around high school when I actually started watching it (I have friends that are obsessed with it) I realized I just seriously don't like it, especially these newer ones. I do like Lupin The Third a lot, and Shin Chan, and a few others were cool. I think it's some of the art styles I liked but....yeah. I think a lot of this comes from not knowing japanese, I know there's subs but still. I honestly think I like just straight up cartoons a huge amount more.

    I did like reading some of those mangas though, my friend had almost every Ranma and I think I read about 20 of them. There, well, comic books, and I like those, though I barely read them. Those were pretty cool. There was this one called Confidential Confessions that was pretty entertaining.

    I cycle through the following every year whenever I can't travel.
    1. I listen to the same 400 songs, like right now it's punk, later random japanese stuff, further heavy metal. Sonic and Ocarina of Time OSTs are pretty much year round.
    2. Gaming and Anime flip flop my focus, like now any PS2 game will reduce my ADD better than any ecchi. By fall after the ladies start wearing less sexy clothes i'll be watching ecchi again.
    3.Live action stuff will take center stage over all cartoons even long time favorites like Reboot...

    The point i'm trying to make is this.

    We're cyclical creatures by design. Does anyone else go through perceived odd roundabouts through the course of the year?
    In the back of my head I know i'll be replaying Ocarina of time for the 17th time...
    When did Xenogears get an anime? I can't bring myself to finish the game.:shrug:

    Having a favourite anime is tough just like a favourite game but anyways heres some of my favs off the top of my head,

    Oh and just on a side note, one movie from Japan that isnt an Anime that you should check out is called "DROP" released in 2009, its FREAKING HILARIOUS.


    Anime Series:

    Hajime no Ippo *Boxing/Comedy* (Funny as hell but also really gets you into the story and caring about the characters)

    Ranma 1/2 *Comedy*

    Ghost Shell: Stand Alone Complex *Sci Fi/Action/Drama* (Intense well developed story that you would expect from Ghost in the Shell)

    Cowboy Bebop *Action/Comedy*

    Samurai 7 *Action/Drama/Sci Fi* (Really good animation and a nice spin on the original live action story line)

    Last Exile *Action/Drama*

    Valkyria Chronicles *Action/Drama/War* (It follows the video game pretty faithfully but with enough extra dialogue/scenes to keep it interesting)

    Pumpkin Scissors *Action/War/Drama* (Similar in ways to Valkyria Chronicles but only in style, it really is its own series)


    Anime Movies:

    Anything Ghibli *Children/Fantasy*

    Nausicaa *Action/Sci Fi*

    Akira *Action/Sci Fi*

    Ghost in the Shell *Action/Sci Fi*

    Summer Wars *Drama/Comedy* (One of my favourite movies, anime or not)

    The Girl who Leapt Through Time *Drama/Comedy*

    Origin: Spirits of the Past *Drama/Sci Fi*

    Metropolis *Drama/Sci Fi* (Love the art style and feel to this movie)

    I got Samurai 7 and the Evangelion Platinum series off of Amazon for pretty cheap a while ago. I haven't had the time to watch them yet.

    The order in which I'm supposed to watch Evangelion has confused me a little. And one of the movies, End of Evangelion i think, is it out of print or something and pretty expensive everywhere. =/

    Evangelion is meant to be watched in order... Ep 1 through 26.
    Death and Rebirth is more of a recap of the 26 episodes... and IIRC it adds a little info to the story, in case you didn't understand something... but it may confuse you more.
    The End of Evangelion is the actual movie of the series, and it helps understanding the series a little bit more.

    So basically I'd say you watch the series in order and then The End of Evangelion. Death and Rebirth is no big deal; you may leave it for some other time.

    And then I also picked up a few other dvds for cheap. Let's see... I have Evangelion 1.11 You are (not) alone and 2.22 You can (not) advance. And from what I understand they're the series remastered or redone or whatever? But what also confused me, while reading the wiki, it refers to these movies as Evangelion 1.0 and Evangelion 2.0. But then 1.01 was released on dvd, and now I have 1.11?? And I haven't discovered if all 3 of these are the same?? I feel like it's not as straight forward as it could be... hahaha

    I read about these new releases; I think it's the series in movie-length episodes (less episodes, but same story...).
    To be honest I'm not sure if they changed something (ie. graphics or story wise) and I didn't know there were several versions of the same (1.0, 1.01, 1.11)... can't help you there :S

    I haven't seen the rebranded Evangelion movies yet (I won't until it is finished) but from what I have heard there are some significant differences and not just a rehash in movie form.
    Well, it's rather brutal here. Right now we are advising all our clients to put everything they've got into canned food and shotguns.
