Please delete and link me to a similar thread (if it does exist).zanku yu

Well, I myself am an anime lover, specifically shonen and seinens.

Well, I made this topic so members can recommend/discourage animes so other members can see. Post your favorite animes and (of course) write why you like it, just a small paragraph at the least.

NO SPAM!

And please, do not harass/flame/bully other members for liking a certain anime.

Manga discussion is also allowed.

~~~DEATH NOTE (desu no-tu)~~~

Well, I recently (as of today) started watching DEATH NOTE. I got attracted because I was seeing some fanart on DeviantArt, and well I looked it up in youtube and there you go, I'm obsessed. In my opinion I would consider it being a seinen (adult [male] anime) and I'm going to find out if there's a manga behind this.

Well, the theme of the show is just plain awesome. If you really want to know what I think [author] really has a creativity that leeks through his pores. At first I though it was kinda stupid, but then as I got more into it, it seemed more and more interesting.

~~~Favorite ANIMES~~~

Naruto
Onegai Series
Oh My Godess
DNAngel
Elfen Laid
and some others

~~~

*buff torchic*

BTW: OMG NO 'thingie' IN THIS POST! (i think)

Personally, I like Bleach.

Bleach is just good. Good setting, good plot, and it's just fun to watch. I've read the first couple of chapters of the manga, but haven't been able to progress any further due to being jobless :P ((Being a student sucks sometimes))

FMA
DBZ
Blood+
Trinity Blood

Two words... Fullmetal Alchemist.

For those who have seen my posts before the Shadow Avatar, would now this. I do like Naruto, Bleach, DNAngel, but FMA gets my win. The story of this series is fasinating. Two bothers look for the way to restore their bodies after a terrible failure to bring back their mother. Alone and with no father, yet, they of the ages of 14 and 15 most live in the world of adults: war, violence, crime, etc. They then learn of the dark evil secrets that lie in their country. The manga is breath-taking, but the anime is well... lame. The characters, voice actors, and colors where fantastic, but the story drove the anime in the dirt in my opinion. Anyone who would find interest in Fullmetal Alchemist then read the manga, but only watch a few shows of the anime.

Gundam Wing
DNAngel
PHD Phantasy Degree
Psychic Acadamy
Demon Diaries
Battle Vixens
DBZ
Naruto
MewMew Power

That's all the Manga/anime I've read/watched. As you can see, it's Shounen mostly with a little Shojo in there. DBZ and Naruto I never really got into that much... DBZ more than Naruto, but not by much.

I don't consider Naruto "anime." It's extremely stupid, and pretty much the only people who watch it are 7-10 years old. Myself, I don't watch anime anymore, but when I did, my favorite shows were Excel Saga, Saiyuki, and Sailor Moon (which I still watch occasionally.)

in b4 morons flood this thread with rubbish like Naruto and Inuyasha

Krisp, there's a whole gang of Naruto fans at my school, and they're anywhere from 12 to 15. My best friend tries to make me watch it all the time.

I don't watch a lot of anime, but these are the ones I have. Ones I like are in bold.

Pokemon (First three seasons and DP)
MAR
Trinity Blood
Ouran High School Host Club (my friend made me watch it)
Blood+
Like one episode of Bleach, but I was half-asleep
A couple of episodes of Ghost in the Shell
Some of the older anime that aired on Toonami (Sailor Moon, DBZ, etc.)

Yeah, I have nothing to do Saturday nights so I watch [adult swim]. I've always adored vampires, and for some reason seem to like violence, so TB and Blood+ take up that category. I'll watch Pokemon every now and then, but the first three seasons and DP so far are the seasons I like the most.

I haven't watched Naruto for years personally. I watched Sailor Moon when it was on on Fox Kids/Jetix years ago.

I'm an Anime/Manga lover as well. We used to get Animax years ago...

I have lots of favorites, but I stopped watching most of them a long time ago. I'm more inclined to Manga now (specially the ones that don't seem to have an Anime, or a famous Anime counterpart, like Genjuu no Seiza).

Saint Seiya (Knights of the Zodiac) is and will always be at the top of my list. I started watching that show when I was 6 years old and it's still captive. Well, maybe not as it used to be, I have to admit (it has its flaws that I didn't use to notice back then), but it's still great.

Shaman King's another cartoon that I'll stop to watch if it's showing. I have some good time watching that show, pretty much because it's so stupid and funny at times.

And then comes Get Backers in all its eliteness. There is a thing or two that I don't like, and most seem to be better explained in the Manga, but it's overall great. Kuroudo Akabane is probably one of the coolest characters I've seen out there.

I love Card Captors Sakura, even though I don't like CLAMP's style so much. It's way too "bishie" sometimes. But that show's great. Too bad it ended.

I love Cowboy Bebop. Awesome animation and nice characters. I like the plot and I like the style. Gotta love Ed, right?

Oh, there's Rurouni Kenshin (Samurai X) too. Nice show, but I stopped watching it when the Makoto Shishio season ended. I loved that guy.

I can't deny I like most shows with monsters, that including Pokémon, Digimon, Monster Rancher and Medabots (well, okay, so these are not mosnters, but it's pretty much the same thing...). I can't say I think the plot in its dephts is intriguing and inteligent, but I do enjoy watching the creatures battling and stuff. The exceptions to these would be Beyblade and Yu-Gi-Oh! (and any other that I've probably forgotten to mention).

Oh yes, and the new fever, Naruto, kind of got into me. Well, I actually watch that show in hopes that Rock Lee or the Sand Siblings will make an appearance; I would pretty much disregard most of the other characters, with a few exceptions (the Hyuuga, Sakura, Iruka, Might Guy/Maito Gai/however you write his name). I like the whole "ninja, jutsu, demons" theme.

I have to put my hands on Bleach, Death Note, Samurai Champloo, Full Metal Alchemist and Gensomaden Saiyuki. These cartoons look very attractive to be left behind.

More into its Manga versions than the Anime, I love Evangelion, Pet Shop of Horrors and a few others. And regarding the old Anime that are nowhere to be found (except You Tube, probably) I liked Super Pig, Sailor Moon, and I simply loved Kimba the White Lion. I still love it, actually.

Oh, and there's always the Anime we hate (I felt like they need to be mentioned as well). Along with a few others there's Dragon Ball, Inu Yasha, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Beyblade, Captain Tsubasa, Yu Yu Hakusho... I just don't like these cartoons.

Well, I'll go through my list now.

It all began with Saint Seiya and (quotes galar) 'it will always be the top of my list'. It seems Saint Seiya was very popular in the latin americas, and I didn't hear anything about it when I was in the US so I guess it wasn't very popular. It's been left behind a little but it will always be my fave.

Then came some others. Sakura Cardcaptors was a great show. I mean the chibiness too it was just plain awesome. Sure, it was kinda shoujooooo but then agian, I was 9-10 I didn't know anything about all this shoujo-shonen things.

I stopped for a while, and then came Saint Seiya fever back again (with the underworld series) and some others came too, like fruits basket, love hina, ah my godess, onegai twins, onegai teacher, etc (which most of them are shoujos.)

Then naruto came and ruined my whole existance. Naruto is awesome and I just love it. My fave has to be Kiba and well, this is when I got attracted to drawing anime (which sucked at that time). Now I have my own internet free manga.lol. I really liked the whole thing to it.

Then came all the cartoon network ones, Cowboy Bebop and...well that's it. And then Death Note. And i got into alot more seinens too now.

I CAN PROUDLY SAY THAT I TOTALLY HATE:

Bleach

I won't watch this even by accident. I don't like [author]'s style and the story is NOT captivating.

DBZ

COMERCIAL!!! nuff said...either you hate it or you love it.
