The awesome anime thread.

[Vilden]

The best that I've ever seen is Rumbling Hearts. Holy shit, I didn't think there was an anime that could send shivers down my spine on a regular basis but this is easily able of doing that.

It's good, overrated though imo, the story is pretty stupid, but the emotions in it weights it up.

Wth, forgot GTO and Golden Boy in my list of favs, two brilliant animes.

 

[Mort Divine]

The story is fantastic, what are you on about!

 

[waif]

I forgot FMA. I like that too.
Also, I saw part of the first episode of Elfen Lied. It was some naked chick walking around a lab killing people with her mind in extremely gory ways.

Trinity Blood is pretty cool. The only shows I ever watched with any regularity were Dragonball Z and Zoids

 

[Blind Guardian]

I already made an anime thread

Anyone know some extremly gory animes? Not like Elfen Lied, but much more brutal...thanks

I´ve recently found a series called "Shigurui",some really fucking brutal stuff,heads chopped in half and stuff like that. A really good samurai series,not many people seem to know about it.

 

[llamaking]

death note
trigun
hunter x hunter

are my favs.

d.n. angel. is pretty good as well.

Outlaw Star

What was that series with the guy who wears a suit, has an android for a maid, and has a giant robot to combat his enemies in Paradigm City? I thought that was pretty cool.

About to start watching Texhnolyze, anybody seen it? :d

Yeah, it's one of my favorites. The same guy that did Haibane Renmei did it.

Some other favorites that everyone should check out are Mushishi and Kino no Tabi.

 

[WINTER TYRANT]

I started my anime with all dragon ball, dragon ball z and dragon ball gt sagas, as well as dragonball movie with Brody the Super Sayan. Have the Cowboy Bebop set in my dvd player right now actually. seen bunch of Rurouni Kenshin, Inyuyasha, Pokemon(when i was little), Bleach, Used to love Case Closed, Vampire Hunter D, Ghost In the Shell, Lupin III, Samurai Champloo, Animatrix, Trigun, Wolfs Rain, Some other movies and yu yu hakusho. some other stuff but can't remember??? also liked the original heavy metal, not really anime but a cool cartoon

 

[waif]

I saw some of Van Helsing and it was alright.

 

[Discovery]

Two animes i would recommend are Berserk and Claymore. Both are very bloody and violent and take place in a fantasy setting. I think metalheads especially would really enjoy those.

 

[SouthernTrendkill]

Berserk is definetly at the top of the stack, as is Neon Genesis Evangelion.

 

[Psychonaut]

As far as movies go, Appleseed and Appleseed: Ex Machina were pretty damn good. Ex Machina on Blu Ray was amazing.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Hellsing pwns all. I'm not exactly an anime connoisseur, but that is one damn stylish series. And the soundtrack is fantastic.

 

[Ender Rises]

Don't watch it on tv, because I assume it is dubbed? I think dubbing anime loses alot of emotion.

It depends on the anime, in my opinion. Cowboy Bebop is better with subtitles, Kenshin is better dubbed. Again, just my opinion.

 

[Matt]

Trinity Blood is pretty cool

 

[Gorva]

I just finished watching Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, and I highly recommend it.

 

[Rob "Klister"]

i've mostly only watched anime on adult swim. cowboy bebop, bleach, samurai champloo and blue gender back in the day. i recently dived into elfin lied, its peaked my interest into looking for more of the violent/gory kinda stuff. by the previous posts it looks like berserk and claymore are the next in line.

@ender- how much better is the subbed version of cowboy bebop over the dubbed? i've only seen the latter but i thought it was well done.
