BigHans
07.06.11 | I dont know shit about anime just think it looks gay I dont know. I mean I compare it to people who read comic books who are either gay or just dorks but probably still cool people just nerds ok I give up enjoy your anime |
TAB

greg84
07.06.11 | Ah. You included Paranoia Agent. Sick show! |

07.06.11 | "I dont know shit about anime just think it looks gay I dont know. I mean I compare it to people who read comic books who are either gay or just dorks but probably still cool people just nerds ok I give up enjoy your anime"
yo, watch Gurren Lagaan, it's so fucking badass. plus theres a really hot chick with massive boobs whos always in a bikini and has a massive sniper rifle.
also its got that cheesy japanese humor which is charming as hell |
WeepingBanana
07.06.11 | yeah GL is my fav anime ever probably

qwe3
07.06.11 | idk ghost in the shell is prob my fav anime movie.

evangalion and some gundams are prob better than gurren but gurrens just so batshit crazy its usually what i recommend people new to anime

07.06.11 | Anime is gay |

07.06.11 | 1,4,6,11,12,19,21,24 = love. |
Iluvatar
07.06.11 | I generally tried to avoid straight out movies |
qwe3
07.06.11 | everyone needs to listen to detriment because his word is paramount and worthy of our respe
HAHAHAHAHA |
Rev
07.06.11 | poop |
Rev
07.06.11 | better than most of the others
still kind of generic :/
ily though. nge is the best. i miss your pirate asuka avatar |
Acanthus
07.06.11 | I think it's hard to have a favorite anime list without some being generic, some of the obscure anime is that way for a reason. |
Iluvatar
07.06.11 | most obscure anime is obscure for a reason yeah |
Rev
07.06.11 | obscure because it's not shown on adult swim, toonami, or syfy? |
Iluvatar
07.06.11 | was most of this shown on cartoon network? i mean idk i just troll the anime review, themanime, anime planet and that one giant anime list on the rottentomatoes board.
and obscure because most of it is superudper derivative or just not good |
Acanthus
07.06.11 | Obscure because American's don't enjoy it, a lot of the list was never shown on the channels you mentioned. They are a good gateway to the genre true, but I think most anime fans have long since passed by keeping track of what it playing on AS anymore. |
qwe3
07.06.11 | "most obscure anime is obscure for a reason yeah"
123
although some well known shitis just bad
like how did dbz get more well known than dragonball |
DoubtGin
07.06.11 | IT HAD THE GENKIDAMA |
Acanthus
07.06.11 | Well a lot of people grew up with DBZ, and word of mouth matters in regards to tv shows. |
DoubtGin
07.06.11 | but seriously, mangas rule way more |
Acanthus
07.06.11 | I want to buy Manga though, always forget it's online :/ |
Iluvatar
07.06.11 | i mean, i understand i put dragonball on here, but that show rules so hard. the perfect kid adventure show, so much better than the ridiculousness of dbz.
also, yu yu hakusho is easily the best of those "saturday morning" type animes |
Rev
07.06.11 | yeah, most of those aren't on television but they're all still pretty well known series/
anime is just like television.
just because most shows aren't the equivalent of Lost, Arrested Development, House, etc doesn't mean they're not worth watching |
Iluvatar
07.06.11 | well i mean this wasnt my LOL ANIMES IVE WATCHED list this was my favorite 30 animes ive watched
i was such a faggot in grade school that i mean it would take two lists to list all the bullshit i sifted through |
Acanthus
07.06.11 | Gotta take a dig at Lost sucked imo.
True, but anime is also far more popular in Japan than in the USA - they are far more likely to watch things just because it's anime than the fickle fans across the pond. |
Rev
07.06.11 | i get you man. im a pretty big anime nerd so i always get kind of annoyed when i see lists like this and most of them are all the same stuff
it's a great list though, it's great to see some excel saga love |
Iluvatar
07.06.11 | and tbh, i underestimated how many animes i really loved so big o and monster were thrown on because i loved certain aspects of them but they piss me off
especially the ending of big o, what a waste of a great anime up to that point |
Acanthus
07.06.11 | Big O has been on forever, and or that I respect it. Like an old chair in the corner there it sits, and somehow that is comforting.
@TheReverend724 - I understand that, I enjoy anime but I've yet to watch a huge amount of it. Finding ones I enjoy takes time, and then finding it all to watch takes even more so. |

07.06.11 | anime is ballin |
psykonaut
07.06.11 | i just watched end of evangelion, my head exploded |
Rev
07.06.11 | Fuck yes psyko. Favorite movie ever |
WashboardSuds
07.06.11 | 1, 22, 23, and 27 are awesome
otherwise I'm half and half with anime |
psykonaut
07.06.11 | yeah it was srsly amazing |
Rev
07.06.11 | Watch it again with supplements ;) |
qwe3
07.06.11 | "at least qwe knows. bow down, bitch."
FOCKIN BOW DOWN |
Masochist
07.06.11 | Loving Trigun right now. Also like Tenchi Muyo. FLCL is still number one for me, though.
Anyone ever seen Pani Poni Dash? Kinda like Azumanga Daioh and FLCL put together; much better if you see it with the translations for all the Japanese. |
PayneTiger777
07.06.11 | 6, 20, and Samuari Champloo are my favorites. |
psykonaut
07.06.11 | "Watch it again with supplements ;)"
oh i was baked as fuck when i watched it, don't worry |
Acanthus
07.06.11 | @Masochist - I've seen a few episodes, it was intriguing and yet made me want to turn it off at the same time. |
Crimson Death
07.07.11 | 20 and 30 are my favorite. I like 1, 3, 6,and 24 as well. Dragonball sucks, DBZ was way better. I'd throw in Ninja Scroll, Death Note, DBZ, Ghost Hunt, Gantz and Kanon (2006). |
Iluvatar
07.11.11 | gantz was so lol |
Oceanus
07.11.11 | When are they gonna finish the Evangelion rebuild? |
Rev
07.11.11 | Quickening should come out soon, but not before MAXIMUM ADVERTISING |
liledman
07.11.11 | "but seriously, mangas rule way more"
got the manga for akira on my computer, always been meaning to read to seeing as i love the movie so much, but reading things on the computer is what lead to me getting glasses in the first place.
and HAS ANYBODY SEEN BAKEMONOGATARI?
fuck me its good. |
