Hai. So I wouldn't mind watching another anime but I'm not sure which to watch. To give you a taste of what I might like, here are the ones I have watched (I like them all);


Almost every episode of the 3 Yugiohs. I watched them ages ago, but I somewhat like the kind of collecting cards and battling and stuff aspect. I don't watch Pokemon anymore but that was interesting for the same reasons.

Both Fullmetal Alchemists. They were decently long and were really fun to watch.

Death Note. Very interesting...

Elfen Lied. Interesting. And bloody...

Angel Beats. Felt like it should have been longer, but the story and plot was awesome.


So yeah. Any suggestions? I like Fantasy, but other genres are cool too. Preferably something that's not too crazy though, like One Piece...

If anybody could help me out, that'd be great!

Cowboy bebop is one of the best animes ever. I'd suggest that, Yu Yu Hakusho, Rurouni Kenshin. All some of my favorites

The ones i am currently watching are Bleach, Naruto and One piece.

Bleach is a bit serious, one piece has an "weird" type of humor and naruto is a good blend between the two. :)

Naruto and One Piece are the longest, and all of them are currently airing.

Same, Bleach and Naruto are both really good and well known animes. Haven't watched them in awhile, the fillers make me want to kill my self some times. Now I'm so far behind in them, I just want to wait till the main story like starts up again. I'm probably 10 to 20 episodes behind in both. I actually need to check and see if the main story started again in Naruto and bleach, haven't checked in ages...

Anyway, my favorite animes of all time

Death Note, Bleach, Naruto and Prince of Tennis. Not sure what it was about prince of tennis, but it's awesome. Saw it on adult swim a few years ago, thought it was sweet so proceeded to watch it online. IMO Sub version are better than Dub on 99.9% of animes, that .1% being DBZ

Oh trunks, the main story of Naruto has started up again. :D Latest episodes have been nailbiters! :) (Im watching the undubbed english subbed episodes)
Also, Bleach is starting to get interesting again aswell :)

Right now i can't wait for more episodes from both of them. New naruto episode tomorrow! :)

Totally agree with the fillers, they are horribly drawn out sometimes.

It's rare I come across an anime I can stand, but if I had to recommend one (aside from the kiddy cartoon animes like DBZ, Pokemon, Avatar) I'd have to say Shin Chan. Old school and hilarious :D

As muffin said at the bottom of her post, claymore is pretty good. But it's very short. :<

Some bleach ones are decent, the bount arc wass pretty good, and the Zanpakuto ark was amazing.

Once Ichigo lost his powers, i was like "nope" and stoppe watching it, waiting for him to get them back. Watch 2 or 3 episodes last night, perfect timing really since he just got back his powers, and looks like he kind of did earlier too, but not going back to watch. Not sure what the fullbring thing was about, but whatever I guess lol. He's still not as BA as he was when he fought Aizen. That was probably the most BA fight I ever watched on an anime. Liked it better than the Naruto vs. Pain fight which was also pretty amazing.

Kind of caught up on Naruto as well, I didn't miss as much of it as I did of bleach. Bleach arcs are way longer then Naruto's. But yeah, caught up on both now I guess, going to start watching them again.

Warning: Bleach spoilers. (Don't worry trunks, it won't ruin anything for you, i know just about where you are in the story.)

Well of course that fight was BA, but he used a ultimate power that he knew would use up all his spiritual pressure or whatever. But yea, i also thought the Fullbring power was pretty lame. BUT TRUST ME! Just keep watching. :D

Well, any Studio Ghibli film is pretty much guaranteed to be awesome (especially Miyazaki, of course).

If you're into movies, Mangler, you should watch basically all of them. I assumed you meant TV shows though.

Just in case, here are a few:

Princess Mononoke
Howl's Moving Castle
Spirited Away
Kiki's Delivery Service
The Cat Returns (though that may just be my love)
Laputa: Castle in the Sky
Nausicaa the Valley of the Wind
Grave of the Fireflies

There are a bunch of others, but yeah :3

Thanks heaps for the suggestions guys. I'm watching Requiem for/of the Phantom at the moment, but these suggestions will certainly come in handy once I'm done with that one.

I would recommend Bleach to be honest, some of the arcs are amazing, and the mystery surrounding the soul society and the Bleach universe in general just adds to the story, it's great.

Naruto is my favorite, The manga has taken off into the main story and the Anime has just started to pick up the cool parts

Well I rarely see any anime I like, so far it's only one single Anime named "Shaman King". I can recommend it.

Moribito is actually really good. I picked it up at an anime convention this weekend and Im very impressed with it.

I'm up to episode 20 of Deathnote and yeah, I recommend it. It really is brilliant!

Just watched Moribito: Guardian of the spirit. Its on par with miazakis work but in episode format rather than a movie.

Sorry but I know this isn't an anime discussion thread but I just felt like trolling for a bit. I never really liked anime and there's only 3 I'm familiar with which would be Highschool of the Dead (watched the first episode on cable), Pokemon (watched when I was much younger), and Naruto (watched like 3 episode and got bored). Something about the format just repulses me nowadays.

Well then is the future dont bother posting about it. Your not enjoying it has no bearing on the rest of us.

Moribito seems to be on netflix. But I had purchased the complete series. Not sure if that bothers me because its so good. Still think I should have saved the money... nah.

I've been watching Claymore, WitchBlade, and One Piece.

I like all 3. =)
