It has everything!
Great characters, hilarious comedy, references to geek/otaku/pop culture up the yin-yang
and a surprisingly touch-the-heart depth to the story.

Mine's Robotech.

It was the first complete anime series I've ever watched and it had such an impact on the anime community that people can't deny its contribution.

Call it a two-bit hack job, but I truly believe anime wouldn't be as popular as it is if it weren't for Robotech.

So much good nostalgia....good times.

I would assume no other anime series has had a bigger influence in your life than Bebop...cause I know several anime off the top of my head that has had far more influence in the anime community.

Bebop, I cried like a baby at the end of that one, that and Wolf's Rain XD I'm a huge crybaby when it comes to dramatic anime. Like FMA, I was messed up for a week when....that one character died <.<

I'm not sure what my favorite anime is though. There are so many good ones. SO MANY.

I just finished watching that series and while I thought it was a great anime, it was ridiculously short and felt kinda rushed near the end.

They really need to extend that series, though

I have volume 1 and 2 on DVD.
The first 10mins of the first episode put my whole 'shock value' collection to shame.
I don't know why but it never really hooked me.

It did seem so, but I do like short series too. I mean, FLCL.

09-27-2008, 06:39 AM
Don't get me wrong, KM, there are a bunch of really good short series out there (Gundam 8th MS team comes to mind), but like I said before it seemed kinda rushed.

There was so much potential for more good story...but I dunno. Maybe they'll do a sequel...

DredScotty
09-27-2008, 06:50 AM
Abenobashi is short (13). Just thought I'd throw that out there ^_^

FLCL is another great one, like Kitty pointed out. Definitely in my top 3. the pillows music alone made that show, for me, just explosively awesome. So it was icing on the cake that it was also a cool plot and had some great moments of WTFness.

The first 3 seasons rocked.
After that, it went downhill.
The movie had the best fucking soundtrack.

I wonder if there is a box set out...

I love FLCL.

and I watch Gurren Lagann on mondays.
Its the only good anime on tv at the moment.

But Berserk was really good,
and Trigun, and Moon Phase.

Has anyone else in here seen Speed Grapher?
Its sick!

My favorite? Dragon Ball hands down I love the series all the way up to GT. Far from being the best anime I love it because I grew up with it...I've been watching it before CN even aired it.

Another Personal Favorite is Saint Seiya.

The Live Action movies weren't too bad.
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/blog_img/archives/2007-01-19deatunote1web.jpg
Two of my fav. Japanese actors, Matsuyama Ken’ichi & Fujiwara Tatsuya, star in them as Light and L. The first one just got released in the U.S and the second should be following soon. I hope they also pick up on the spin-off film that was released a bit ago, it wasn't half bad, a bit off kilter from the previous two but still enjoyable if only for Matsuyama's performance, imo.

Detective Conan, Dragonball, Dragonball Z, Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Azumanga Daioh, Full Metal Panic FUMOFFU, Devil May Cry, Zone Of The Enders, Negima, Hare & Guu

All time favorites there. There's a few others, but I can't think of them :(.

I can't remember if I said one of my favorite anime is Please Teacher!


I love that series, even though it's short, it is really great. The love triangle of the story is humorous. The plot is sorta strange even for anime, however the climax of the story keeps rising. o_0

I really like Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Pilot Candidate (aka: Candidate for Goddess), Card Captor Sakura, Yu Yu Hakusho, Tokyo Babylon, Kyo Kara maoh, Ouran, Full Metal Alchemist (<3), Dragon Ball, and Wolf's Rain

But I love Elfen Lied, Escaflowne, and Outlaw Star.

I'd say Rurouni Kenshin, but the manga is SO much better.

I guess I'm contributing to the normal teenage girl stereotype when it comes to these things by saying my favourite is actually Death Note as of now. I'm fond of Air Tv as well. I can't say why exactly, they just make me happy.
