Try watching every episode of Trigun and Cowboy Bebop.

Then go watch every Dominion Tank Police movie followed by War of the Gods.

Erm.. Let me see.

Then go rent every Galaxy Express movie (if you find them to buy PM me.)

Um... I think that's about all that'd I'd really suggest you see. Other than Akira which you've already got listed.

What kind of anime are you interested in?

[Orangepeel]

Saw a Cowboy BeBop Movie in a Future Shop flyer this week. It was on sale I think.

Maybe I should check out some anime. You guys seem to like it a lot :).

http://lovehina.bandai-ent.com/spring_version/images/album_photo_large_02.jpg (http://www.bandai-ent.com/products/product_details.cfm?id=140)

Its about unrequited love, friendship, and family... and lots of humor.
and also, I'll be bring some over to Las Vegas, in Novemeber... wink, wink..

Ya Love Hina rocks!!!

There are a LOT of good anime out there. I'm surprised no one has mentioned Kenshin yet.:thumb

[IM [H]ard]

Nobody mentioned Trigun yet?? you people dissapoint me, heh...later:)

[wazman]

Never seen anything other than Sailor Moon... I wouldn't know where to start...

[IM [H]ard]

Never seen anything other than Sailor Moon... I wouldn't know where to start...
it depends totally on what you like? did you really like sailor moon all that much? If you did, you would probabally like more shojo "girl" oriented. don't get me wrong, allot of guys like this too. but the shonen types are really cool! like vampire hunter D, or *******, or any other more brutal type, they are just awsome. But I like trigun allot, I haven't seen all of it yet. But I plan on buying the set, Therefore it earns the "IM [H]ard" stamp of approval. But I recomend you check some more anime out man! If you just head on over to sputnik7.com you can see some free of charge, legaly. Just trying to add to the anime community...later:)

[tantousha]

My sister is a big anime fan and got me to watch the end (last 2 episodes) of Evangelion (spelling?). The anime and music were great...the only problem is that neither of us have seen any of the episodes so we had no idea what was going on...any help?

[Solxe]

Thx for all the tips guys, gonna see whats worth buying or renting or reading :D.

[crazypiper]

BTW Solxe what genra of Anime you into?

[t00lb0x]

A) There are genres?
B) I would recommend: Trigun and Cowboy Bebop. Both of these are beautifully animated and have good stories. Also great action. Cowboy Bebop also has a movie, don't remember name but I know its rated "R." I used to watch these two every night until they stopped showing them (now :( *cries*.) But Cowboy Bebop will be back on Cartoon Network [Adult Swim] back in september. Lastly I would recoomend Rurouni Kenshin. Again has a good plot and good animations. It also has fight scenes (which are pretty good) but does not advice killing. Unlike the other two I recommended. Kenshin takes a pact to never kill again after he was the "Man slayer" arg long story. Thats about 3 -5 days worth of anime nonstop.

[t00lb0x]

Yeah second post, I think Trigun is great but Cowboy Bebop is better. Its just more amazing.

Good Luck, I've watch the series and the movies... and the ending is well not easy to explain. But you're not the only one it confused. I had a friend that is still going through intensive psychotheripy because of the ending.

Anyway, some of my recent favorites include; Spirited Away, Princess Monoke, Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Love Hina, Evangelion, Saber Marionette, Fushigi Yugi, DNA2, Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure. Some of the classics I will always love are: Ranma 1/2, Tenchi Muyo, Ah My Goddess, 3x3 Eyes, Bubblegum Crises, Kimagure Orange Road, Dirty Pair, Tank Police, Akira, and Macross. -- I hate to admit it Marmalade Boy.

[cynic]

check out FLCL...it's pure genius in my opinion


also...hellsing and rahxephon are pretty badass

[cynic]

haha...i have no idea....its just a fine blend of guitars, robots, guitars and robots coming out of a guy's head.....and other stuff that makes you question the creator's sanity....it has high replay value because more than half the time you don't know wtf is going on

[t00lb0x]

OMG Tenchi Muyo that was good. But toooooo many episodes. Kind of dragged on and felt like DBZ.

[efernandez_98]

[t00lb0x]

Yeah I liked Tenchi a lot better than DBZ. Its storyline/plot I found funny. But it was just too long and it got used. I'm not saying its bad, just watch the first series, not Tenchi In Toyko.

Yeah, I like the different iterations of Tenchi for their own reasons. But I don't like the fact that each series is a different "universe"

[t00lb0x]

How can it be in a different "universe" if they go to Tokyo!??!?!? (like 3rd installment of the series)

[efernandez_98]

Originally posted by t00lb0x

[t00lb0x]

Really? I'm lost, I haven't seen it in forever. All I know is that they all crush on him and they go into outer space b/c Tenchi is like a prince or something. Who knows.

Yeah, my sister is downloading the episodes and watching them...she's slowly piecing everything together and filling me in on all the details...it's....umm...and interesting idea....yeah...that's it...interesting....

[Maro]

Just don't watch UROTSUKIDOJI - they are sick!

[t00lb0x]

I'm gonna watch a new Anime on Cartoon Network in 2 minutes. Called Cyborg 009.

Just finished watching all the neo genesis evangelion episodes,
damn that ending was complicated, it was most about Shinjis
thoughts? or something! :D

[onryou]

well the final eps of eva (not End of Eva) kinda make sense if you think about it. But the movie is just strange. I luv Love Hina. Ranma 1/2 was good too (it's really loooong, like 7 seasons long) but once you get past the random changes of gender its a fun series to watch. Cowboy Bebop was cool. I recommend watching Excel Saga, it's hilarious! Gundam Saga is excellent, Gundam Wing is the best of all. Theres so much out there it's hard to list all the series.

[msgwtco]

Yu-gi-oh!

I watch both subbed and dubbed versions

All i can say on the subject is go with those two, along with Trigun and DB series :thumb

[Solxe]

That I don´t know :KICKASS

Well it starts that shinji gets a mail from his father asking him too come to "nerv".

And it ends with shinji crying over Asuka...

Maybe that helps?

Aren't those two the same movie?

[Alien]

Blue Gender wasn't too bad.

[onryou]

Almost forgot Saber Marionette J, Nuku Nuku, Panyo Panyo Digi Charat(is sooo cute!!!), Bubblegum Crisis, Dirty Pair Flash (Vol. 1+2 I'd recommend, but 3 is just plain perverted), Hand Maid May, and Kare Kano(from what I've seen so far) are all good series. ^-^

[Phalanx-Imawano]

Finally my kind of topic.

I have various favorites in different categories.

Teenage Life/Romance:
Marmalade Boy (my absolute favorite now)
Boys Be
To Heart (okay maybe a bit too kiddy for most)

Magical/Adventure:
Fushigi Yuugi
Tenchi Muyo
Oh My Goddess

Action/Sci-Fi:
You're Under Arrest (one of my top favorites before Marmalade Boy)
Sakura Wars
Gatekeepers
Gunsmith Cats

Comedy:
Love Hina
His and Her Circumstances

Nope. First, The TV Series lasted 26 episodes. Next, Death and Rebirth is largely a summary of all TV episodes plus a backstory featuring what happened in Antartica which started the whole thing. End of Evangelion is like an alternate to Episodes 25 and 26 as an aftermath of the TV series where the 3rd Impact happened.

[Solxe]

Id like to thank everyone for all the wonderfull tips !

Now I know what to search for :)

Ah, ok thanx. I've seen End of Eva and thought that was the same as Death and Rebirth, still gotta see that.

[onryou]

If you like anime I'd also recommend looking into manga. Like Real Bout High School, Love Hina, Chobits, etc. You get a story slightly different from the anime as well as scenes that were cut out.
