Kwai Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Edit: Listing reasons because Kurama_Fan wants reasons -_- :p Best Anime - Neon Genesis Evangelion (Shin Seiki Evangelion) Best anime ever... Gracefully ties in religion, philosophy, huge robots, teen mental developments, some big angels, and the end of the world. Good storyline, unique perspective, awesome action, and above all, it makes you think. :angel: Best Comedy Anime - Trigun. Kudos to Vash the Stampede for making it incredibly funny and serious at the same time. Meh, it is comedy cuz Vash is in it... he's just too strong and too crazy. Best Romance Anime - I don't do romance so N/A here. Best Drama Anime - Meh... all anime is drama included... N/A Best Action/Adventure Anime - This definitely goes to Rurouni Kenshin for its awesome combat scenes. Shishio, Saito, Enishi, Aoshi... the combat scenes are just awesome and breath taking. Best Mecha Anime - Er.... NGE yet again even though those aren't really mecha... Anyway, the huge variety in the enemy angels and how the EVAs deal with it is worthwhile to watch. Best Fantasy Anime - Inuyasha :) Cool combat scenes and nice bunch of demons to go with it. The [spoiler]recovering the jewel shard [/spoiler] quest and most of the demons that appear in the series are actually real Japanese myths so its cool :D Best Horror Anime - Theres horror anime? never seen one N/A Guess the closest is Vampire Hunter D Blood Lust... Best Male Character - Vash the Stampede... how can you not like him... hes stupid, has awesome guns, is the best shot around, and decimated a city :devil: Best Female Character - Rei from NGE :angel: So cute and soooo.... cold/innocent... (okay, maybe not innocent) Best Soundtrack - Rurouni Kenshin for me here.. Just personal preference. Funniest Character - Vash the Stampede(who else?) Biggest ***$hole(the one person you hate the most...) - Leonof the Puppet Master from Trigun... [spoiler]just controlling stupid puppets while he talks smart and is off in the safe distance doign absolutely nothing... [/spoiler] Biggest Badass - Knives Millions from Trigun. He wants to eradicate humanity, thats badass. Best Villain - Vicious cuz he wields a sword while everyone else has a gun and he still kills them all like nothing :) Hottest Chick - Rei Ayanami :angel: Meh, do I need a reason? Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character - Legato Bluesummers with his little needles and skulls :) and how he just talks as if he doesn't give a damn for anything alive on earth(he doesn't actually... wait... they aren't even on earth... *shrugs*) Best Death - Spike from Cowboy Bebop, Wolfwood from Trigun... :bawl: both so emotional and sad :bawl: Best Anime Movie - End of Evangelion. An awesome ending for a truly epic masterpiece. Best Anime OVA - Rurouni Kenshin OVAs The combat scenes. Its the combat scenes. Its all in the combat scenes. Best Anime Music Track - Cruel Angel Thesis. My favorite all-time anime music :angel: :devil: :) :D :therock: Meh... this is wayyy too long.... And why do you have Arael for a banner/avatar? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurama_Fan Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Best Anime I'd have to say... HunterXHunter.Hardly anyone knows this anime, but It's by Yoshihiro Togashi (yyh)It has cool fight scenes, the animation is really good, a good plot, good characters, good... everything! Just watch the show, for heaven's sake! Best Comedy Anime Hm... toughie. I dunno. Can't help ya here. Best suggestion would be Dragon Knights, very funny, but... I dunno... Best Romance Anime Does manga count? Then it'd be definitely Marmalade Boy. Ish so sweet. Aw..... Best Drama Anime Here's a manga again... Planet Ladder. It is overall very good, with original plot, very detailed, I may add... Also, the characters are good, as is the Chracter development. Best Action/Adventure Anime WITHOUGHT A DOUBT X1999! Come on, peoples! Was there ever a better one? (don't answer that). But Clamp really hit the bullseye with this one. Excellent anime, charaacters, plot, ACTION SCENES, OH THE ACTION SCENES! Very good. Best Mecha Anime ... Does endless waltz count? Gotta have this one in here. Best Fantasy Anime Hm... I would've put Planet Ladder here but... NOW I KNOW! Ragnarok! Excellent stuff, here. It's very imaginative, except for the mispelling of one particular word.. Best Horror Anime I'm not really into this stuff, but I'd say Ceres: Celestial Legend by Yu Watase, If it counts... Good anime, good plot, yadda yadda yadda... Best Male Character Kurama or Kurapica? Kurama or Kurapica? WHY ME????? In case you don't know, Kurama is the red-haired bishounen from YuYu Hakusho, and Kurapica (OMG-kawaii!) is the blond omg-kawaii bishounen fom HunterXHuner. Watch the freakin anime and you'll understand. But since they're very similar and are from shows made my the same person, I wouldn't care really who, but ... Please give Pika-chan (nickname) a chance, not many people would, because hardly anyon has heard about HxH... Kurama? or Kurapica? Best Female Character This would be a hard thing for me to judge, but... Oh, I don't know. Best Soundtrack I don't listen to soundtracks, but I realy like some of the HxH and YYH songs. Also, Inuyasha songs are good too. Funniest Character Sorata from X1999. I mean, people on the show call him, 'the funny guy from Osaka.' He is funny! Watch the show, especially the early episdes! Funnyness! I'm telling you, he deserves it! Biggest ***$hole(the one person you hate the most... Karasu from Yu Yu Hakuso. I mean, my name is Kurama_Fan, so why wouldn't I hate a character who likes the character I like? And is a guy at that? Biggest Badass Gene Starwind from Outlaw Star. Enough said. Best Villain Hisoka from HunterXHunter. I'm holding out for the HxH people, aren't I? But, Hisoka is evil. He is really tough, eeeeevil, fights with cards, and is just cool. But evilly cool. Just another one of those things where you have to watch the show to really get it. Hottest Chick Hm... can't help ya! Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character Kurapica from HxH, of course! He is ery well dressed, but .... this is wierd... me and m friends think that the more serious he is, the more clothes he takes off... 'm starting to sound really perverted, aren't I? But don't worry, he wears a lot of layers. Well-dressed. Best Death Um... Nuriko from Fushigi Yugi. Ish so sad... Best Anime Movie The second YYH movie... I love it! The voices sound really wierd though... But It was very fun to watch! Although it has made me hate Kuronue, for some strange reason... Best Anime OVA Why, the HunterXHunter OVA, of course! *big grin* Especially because it is mainly about Kurapica beating these people who hurt him in the past! Pica-chan has an angsty past.Aw... kawaii! *even bigger grin* Best Anime Music Track Like, one song? Hm... I've got two for ya. The first is eX Dream, by Myuji, the opening for X1999. The lyrics are really powerful, if you read them, and they go perfectly with the show. Second, I'd say No More Words, the song for the IY movie. It starts out as a slowsong, but It keeps building until the very end. Cool Song. Listen to it sometime. There! I mae a post with real thought,that I did! I also apoligize in advnce (so why is it at the end of the post?) for any spelling errors, my stupid lousy computer... I hope everyone takes my ideas/suggestions into consideration, and maybe more than that. And give HunterXHunter a chance, please. It would thrill me to no end if it won. Ja!

TrickyNicky Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 [color=violet][size=1][b]Best Anime:[/b] Yu-Gi-Oh. Well, what else did ya expect me to write... In my opinion, it is the best, and the Egyptian legend underlayer is very well though out. [b]Best Comedy Anime:[/b] Shin Chan... if it counts. Hehe that lil kid cracks me up every time! A bit immature, but if you love kiddy comedy, this one's for you. [b]Best Romance Anime: [/b]Don't know any. [b]Best Drama Anime: [/b]CardCaptor Sakura. I don't really know. Most animes have drama in it, but this is very very very dramatic!!! ^_^ But hey, it's a really good anime and deserves merit! [b]Best Action/Adventure Anime: [/b]Shinzo. Can't get enough of it! It's definately action and adventure, because there's a lot of fighting and exploring new places and time periods. I love it!

He's really interesting, and has a killer accent! *Swoon* The Yami's not as cute though... [b]Best Female Character: [/b]Madison (Cardcaptor Sakura). What a fashion sense! What Talent! What ability to put up with Sakura and Li's squabbles! This girl deserves the prize!!! [b]Best Soundtrack:[/b] Cardcaptor Sakura That just rocks so much... I mean, I'm talking the Chills! I love it!! [b]Funniest Character: [/b]Kero (Cardcaptor Sakura) He's so sweet! He always has these really funny lines, and besides being thousands of years old, still manages to hang on to the role of the most thick-headed character in the series... besides possibly Meilin. [b]Biggest ***$hole(the one person you hate the most...:[/b] Pegasus (Yu-Gi-Oh) *Glare Glare* This guy does my head in! I mean, stop whining and get on with your life! Just cos he's had a bad time gives him no reason to wreck other people's lives!! [b]Biggest Badass: [/b]Mai (Yu-Gi-Oh) I could take some pointers from this bad girl... She's such a reckless driver and I'm scared of driver-seats! [b]Best Villain:[/b] Marik (Yu-Gi-Oh) He's lovely.... And his hair rules! I mean, it truely is amazing that an evil genius of such astronomical proportions could spare enough time to get those sandy locks looking so beautiful!! [b]Hottest Chick:[/b] I have no idea... I would most like to look like Madison, but I doubt u could count her as hot... Mai again, I think. Her hair is pretty. Mine's straight and boring. [b]Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character:[/b] Oh, most definately Madison!!! She designs all of Sakura's dresses, you see... [b]Best Death:[/b] The only death I ever heard of in anime was [spoiler]Bakura[/spoiler] (Yu-Gi-Oh)... And you didn't even see it, ya just heard about it... I just heard this morning *cries*. ((Right i gotta go, I'll do reasons for the others later)) [b]Best Anime Movie:[/b] Cardcaptor Sakura. [b]Best Anime OVA:[/b] What's an OVA? [b]Best Anime Music Track:[/b] As much as it kills me to say it, but probably Digimon... As you can see, yes, I'm a UK PREPPY ANIME FAN! MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! *Cough* Ok, I'm going now...[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurama_Fan Posted May 25, 2003 Share Posted May 25, 2003 *angriness* *angriness* can't believe you people! Please pu WHY you think these categories should be accepted as such. I mean, some fit the categories fine, but I think an entry with a description is far more likely to be accepted. Just me, but it is a bit annoying. Also, this is for TrikyNicky- OVA stands for Original Video Animation Don't know uch about it except that, but I think it is the original work, and the rest of the show is spporting and leading up to that (I'm using the HunterXHunter OVA's as reference). Well, bye! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen Asuka Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 [color=hotpink][size=1]Thank you people for actually putting the reasons why. I will let this thread live for a bit and then I'll close it and post results so that it wont be against the rules. Here's my answers: [b]Best Anime Neon Genesis Evangelion.[/b] Ever since I saw this series, I was in love. It's very deep and has an intricate storyline and I love the religious overtones. All of the characters are well-developed and it really makes you think about life. [b]Best Comedy Anime[/b] I'd have to say [b]Excel Saga[/b]. I only saw the first volume, but I loved it so much. Another one to fit here would be Trigun. I love it, too. ^_^ [b]Best Romance Anime Fushigi Yugi,[/b] hands down. I am a sucker for romance and I have this entire series. It is the best! ^_^ The love that Miaka and Tamahome have for one another makes me feel more romantic just watching it. I only watch it when I'm depressed, though. I have no idea why... [b]Best Drama Anime[/b] Doesn't every anime constitute a drama? I'd have to say...hmm...*thinks very hard* I have no idea...[b]X, by Clamp,[/b] I suppose. [b]Best Action/Adventure Anime[/b] Not a big action/adventure fan. [b]Best Mecha Anime *CoughEvangelionCough*[/b] Of course. Okay, so the Evas aren't REALLY robots...but they look like they are! [b]Best Fantasy Anime Magic Knight Rayearth.[/b] I saw this series a while ago and I read the manga and I truly enjoyed it. I enjoy anything by Clamp. [b]Best Horror Anime Vampire Princess Miyu OVAs.[/b] It's not really HORROR, but just the music freaks me out. ^_^; [b]Best Male Character[/b] Wow, this is a touch question. But I definately have to go with [b]Nuriko from Fushigi Yugi.[/b] I loved him so much even though he was in love with almost every cast member. Got to love that beautiful hair... [b]Best Female Character[/b] Definately [b]Miss Asuka Langley Soryu.[/b] She reminds me of myself and she has a very troubled past. Her superiority complex is amazing. ^_^ I LOVE HER! [b]Best Soundtrack The Trigun soundtrack.[/b] I rock out to that all the time. I love the opening and the ending theme songs. [b]Funniest Character Excel from Excel Saga.[/b] Her and Vash, anyways. Both of them had me laughing VERY hard. [b]Biggest ***hole(the one person you hate the most...)]/b] Anyone from [b]Dragon Ball Z.[/b] That show is horrendous. All the characters are idiots. [b]Biggest Badass Gai Daigoji, Nadesico.[/b] Okay, so he wasn't really what you would constitute as badass, but you really have to hand it to him for trying! ^_^ [b]Best Villain Ann and Alan from Sailor Moon.[/b] I'm sorry, I'm a Sailor Moon fan, and I really enjoyed that saga of the series. Both of them were such beautiful and passionate characters. They really added to the romantic drama of the series! ^_^ [b]Hottest Chick[/b] Er, definately [b]Urd from Ah My Goddess.[/b] I think she is so sexah. ^_^ [b]Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character[/b] Well, that's something that's a rare find with an anime character because it never seems that anyone matches, but I'd have to go with [b]Chi, Chobits.[/b] [b]Best Death[/b] I don't really care for death all that much...not in ANY series, but I'd have to pick [b]Amiboshi, Fushigi Yugi.[/b] He was so tragic and wonderful....*sighs* [b]Best Anime Movie[/b] I have to go with [b]Ah My Goddess: the Movie.[/b] It was so good and it added a lot to the original series and you got to see Belldandy being not so sweet and innocent. [b]Best Anime OVA[/b] All of the [b]Ranma 1/2[/b] ones. [b]Best Anime Music Track[/b] The opening to the second volume of the [b]Fushigi Yugi OVAs[/b]. And a note about OVAs, they don't usually take place BEFORE a series. Most of the time they are made after the series. They are like theatrical episodes with better animation and add to the storyline of the original. ^_^[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven's Cloud Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 [color=indigo]Best Anime: Cowboy Bebop is the best anime series of all times. It has superb music, intense charecter development, vivid animation, fantastic writing...they even dubbed it well Best Comedy Anime: Although it is not strictly a comedy anime, Vandred has some of the funniest scenes of any anime on the market. I found the whole "male/female sexuality theme" hysterical...for those of you who haven't scene the anime, one of its primary themes is that both the men and women come from worlds where the opposite sex is considered the enemy, they know nothing of male and female romance. Best Romance Anime: Don't really watch these. Best Drama Anime: Spirited Away blew my mind. I thought its whole story line was superb. Best Action/Adventure Anime: For pure action I have to go with Berserk. There are some truly awesome fight scenes in the series, especially in the first episode. Best Mecha Anime: Evangelion is as intense as a mech anime gets (although EVA's really aren't mechs...). Best Fantasy Anime: I haven't seen to many of these, but the Record of Lodoss War is probably my favorite out of the few I have seen. Best Horror Anime: I don't find too many animes scary...but I guess Wicked City was quite good, despite the mature content... Best Male Character: Spike from Cowboy Bebop. A martial arts expert, that is haunted by his past. He has so many layers, he is easy-going, arrogant, determined, vengeful, and compassionate... Best Female Character: Marielle from Noir is such an odd female charecter for an anime. She is composed, a determined assasin, but is not arrogant or snide. Best Soundtrack: Cowboy Bebop OST 1...Rush and Tank! are the two greatest anime songs ever, hands down. Funniest Character: Ed, from Cowboy Bebop...she is so odd Biggest ***$hole(the one person you hate the most): Picachu...I really hate pokemon Biggest Badass: Vegeta...he is just so damn good Best Villain: Femto/Gryffith...his betrayal was uncannily harsh Hottest Chick: Faye Valentine, she is just so hot...I love those dark haired women Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character: Arucard from Hellsing just looks so cool in that frilly suit...it so fits a vampire Best Death: Spike, it is just so unexpected when the lead charecter dies fighting his rival Best Anime Movie: Spirited Away...reasons above Best Anime Music Track: Rush...Yoko Kano is outstanding.

Jinzouningen17 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Best Anime: Yu-Gi-Oh! Within the past year, I have basically fallin in love wit Yu-Gi-Oh!. Not just the anime, but in general. I've even began gettin into the actual card game(which I NEVER thought I'd get into). But the anime(especially that Japanese versions)is quite possibly the best thing that there is on TV right now. Best Comedy Anime: Lupin III Its hard for me to explain just 1 reason why this is the funniest anime out there. I guess because when you look at it, it seems a bit realistic and anything that seems realistic in an anime is funny to me because you can relate with it. Best Romance Anime: I dont watch romance anime. Best Drama Anime: Dont watch that either. Best Action/Adventure Anime: Yu Yu Hakusho Dark Tournament and Poltergiest Report. Need I say more? Best Mecha Anime: Hmmm, Gundam Wing. It was a VERY hard decision to make wit this one, especially since my favorite Mecha animes are Gundam Wing, G Gundam, Zeta Gundam, and Gundam 0083. So I basically just did iny miny mony mo and chose that one. Best Fantasy Anime: *shrugs* Best Horror Anime: Darkside Blues Dont know if you'd consider that a Horror anime, but I watched it and it was pretty decent. But thats about the only "horror" anime that I've really watched other than Vampire Hunter D(if thats even considered that) Best Male Character: Yami Bakura and Yoko Kurama. *look below at Best Villain for Yami Bakura*. For Yoko Kurama....he's just too friggen cool for me. Thats all I can say. Best Female Character: Fukijko A beautiful theif. Need I say more? Best Soundtrack: Yu-Gi-Oh! I havent heard a bad opening or closing theme yet from this show. Plus the background music is awesome(ALOT better than the bg music here in America.) Funniest Character: Cant think of one at the moment. Will edit and mention it later. Biggest ***$hole(the one person you hate the most...): Cant think of one at the moment. Will edit and mention it later. Biggest Badass: Yami Malik from Yu-Gi-Oh! and Hiei from Yu Yu Hakusho I dont have enough time to mention why I think Yami Malik is the biggest badass. I mean goodness, [spoiler]the fool killed his own daddy when he was a kid wit a millineum item when he was a kid.[/spoiler]. Do I need to say more? And as far as Hiei...you watch the show. You all know how bad Hiei is, especially wit that Dragon of the Darkness Flame. Best Villain: Yami Bakura and Yami Malik from Yu-Gi-Oh! Man, I dont have time to mention all the reasons why those 2 are my favorite villains in ANY anime at the moment. Hottest Chick: Fujiko from Lupin III and Anzu(Tea)from Yu-Gi-Oh! Man, if you watch Lupin III, you obviously know why I chose Fujiko. And I dont know about yall, but Anzu looks lovely as a mug in the Battle City saga of Yu-Gi-Oh!. Atleast in my opinion anyway. Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character: Seto Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh! Is it me, or does he always have the best coats? If only they sold those type of coats around here, I'd definetly be rockin em. ^_^ Best Death: Prowl's death from Transformers the Movie Yeah, its not exactly an anime, but its a cartoon and it was shown in Japan, and its the first one to come to my head. Besides, you cant beat the way Prowl was shot in the friggen chest, and fire came outta his eyes and his mouth. Best...death...EVER! Best Anime Movie: Yu Yu Hakusho The Poltergiest Report That was a hard decision to make aswell. I've seen a good bit of good ones, but this is the first one that came into my head. Best Anime OVA: *shrugs* Best Anime Music Track: "Shuffle" from Yu-Gi-Oh! I dont know about yall, but this is quite possibly the most addictive anime theme that I've heard. Ever since I first heard this, I've been addicted to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkadyz Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 [color=silver][font=times new roman][b]Well this could be interesting I suppose...And I like how all of you put alot of thought into your choices so I suppose I will strive to do the same :D Now lets see... [size=3]Best Anime:[/size] Neon Genesis Evangelion...This was one of the first animes I saw and ive loved it ever since I bought the whole series on DVD...It has amazing levels of depth that even to this day ive yet to fully comprehend...Its pure brain food. [size=3]Best Comedy Anime:[/size] Excel Saga...Oh this series has so many gags and jokes jammed into it its just too funny for words...And dont get me started on there poor "alternative food source" haha... [size=3]Best Romance Anime:[/size] Chobits...Oh I just love this one to death...The budding romance between hideki and chi is the sweetest most genuine thing ive seen in a long time...Pure heart candy. [size=3]Best Action/Adventure Anime:[/size] Yu-Yu Hakusho...DBZ has got nothing on this action series...It can pack one heck of an emotional punch and has great characters with some truly wicked attacks. [size=3]Best Mecha Anime:[/size] Gundam...In particular any of the UC timelines for their excellent portrayl of the horrors of war...And Gundam Wing:Endless Waltz for the very shallow reason that I LOVE the mecha designs of this OVA/Movie. [size=3]Best Fantasy Anime:[/size] Inuyasha...This series has everything you would want in an anime...Lots of medevil fantasy and monsters...And awkward romance...And great characters with some fine action scenes. [size=3]Best Horror Anime:[/size] Hellsing...One reason...Alucard...He has to be the best and coolest Vampire ive ever seen...This series has blood by the bucket full and very impressive animation. [size=3]Best Male Character:[/size] Shinji...I love him because hes so human...He isnt a superhuman...He doesnt stand for truth and justice and is always the first to volunteer to fight evil...Hes just a poor ordinary kid with alot of emotional baggage trying his best to get through life. [size=3]Best Female Character:[/size] Chi...I love her innocense and how shes constantly learning about the world around her...Through her she shows us what where all like...The bad and the good. [size=3]Best Soundtrack:[/size] Cowboy bebop...I dont think any other series can touch the undeniable cool of the music on this series...The jazz, the blues, and even the heavy metal are so flawlessly executed...Just poor audatory goodness. [size=3]Funniest Character:[/size] Pen-pen...Come on you all know penguins rule dont you?...This little fella could bring a ton of laughter even in the most serious situation with just a waddle and a few funny noises...bless you pen-pen :D [size=3]Biggest ***$hole(the one person you hate the most...): [/size] Naraku...This guy is just so evil and such a jerk...Ohhh Id really like to off this guy myself... [size=3]Biggest Badass:[/size] Hiei...He just always seems to be in a bad mood...But it works for him...Hes a very cool and interesting character indeed. [size=3]Hottest Chick:[/size] Asuka...Not only does she have the figure but shes a deep and troubled girl with all kinds of quirks...Just like a real person... [size=3]Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character:[/size] Chi...The dresses she has on are just absolutley stunning...Im not sure if theyd work in RL but in the manga/anime she always looks fabulous. [size=3]Best Death:[/size] Im gonna cheat and pick 2...They happen in the same ep. First Julia...It was SOOO incredibly sad when she died...Spike had spent so long looking for her only to have her taken from him once again...And later spikes own death...With a one word utterence we see one of the coolest and greatest anime characters fall after a dramtic series of action scenes...truly moving... [size=3]Best Anime Movie:[/size] X1999...A lushly animated movie with a very interesting story...Another great Clamp story... [size=3]Best Anime OVA:[/size] Well I can never figure whether PatLabor is a OVA or series of Movies...Either way it would be my choice...Its humanity, excellent story telling, and characters set it far above most standard "mecha" fare. [size=3]Best Anime Music Track:[/size] Komm, susser Tod...from evangelion...This song has a decievingly ubeat tone to it but when you stop and actually listen to the lyrics its very sad and depressing...But excellent none the less...I think it was the perfect piece to play near the end of evangelion when "rei" was inacting the instrumentatlity. Wow ok well this took me quite abit to write...Should be interesting to see who wins...heh :naughty: [/color][/font][/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kei Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 [color=royalblue][b]Best Anime:[/b] The one I love the most so far is Yu-Gi-Oh!, but I'm sure that'll change here soon... [b]Best Comedy Anime:[/b] El Hazard: Wanderers. I love the comic moments Fujisawa and Jinnai provide. Especially in the second ep.... That was classic. lol [b]Best Romance Anime:[/b] Fushigi Yuugi. Enough said. [b]Best Drama Anime:[/b] Haven't really seen any to vote for one....I guess Neon Genesis Evangelion would fit here. [b]Best Action/Adventure Anime:[/b] Yuu Yuu Hakusho. Some of the best fights I've ever seen. [b]Best Mecha Anime:[/b] I'm between Gundam Wing and Neon Genesis Evangelion. Both are great animés, and have great mechs. I guess I'll go with the Evas again on this one. [b]Best Fantasy Anime:[/b] El Hazard: Wanderers. ^^ [b]Best Horror Anime:[/b] Blue Seed. I loved it so much. The monsters in it were all based on old Japanese legends (I think), and they were really good. I liked them. [b]Best Male Character:[/b] Bakura!! Bakura is one of the best anime characters around. I personally like him because it's kind of hard to figure him out. No one knows for sure whether he's a good guy being controlled by evil, or he's evil himself working with an equally evil person, then had a change of heart. Of course, that accent helps too. ^^ His Yami form rocks, too. [b]Best Female Character:[/b] Hm... I'd have to say Shayla Shayla from El Hazard: Wanderers. She lives up to the fiery red-head, fanged persona to the fullest. Sort of like a cross between Tasuki and Ryoko. [b]Best Soundtrack:[/b] I've never heard an entire soundtrack from an anime, but from the music I've heard, I like El Hazard's the best. [b]Funniest Character:[/b] Fujisawa from El Hazard. I love him to death. Whenever he's drunk or coming in all heroic is the best. In the third ep, I'll never forget when he was riding a shard of a giant broken bowl on a flooding river yelling "Fujisawa Cowabunga!" lol [b]Biggest ***$hole(the one person you hate the most...):[/b] Um, that'd have to be Katsuhito Jinnai. --; A total jerk, and he's got a laugh that's more annoying than Mandark's from Dexter's Laboratory in both English and Japanese, which I didn't think was even possible... [b]Biggest Badass:[/b] Tasuki from FY. Enough said. [b]Best Villain:[/b] Hm. I'll have to say either Malik or Vicious for this one. [b]Hottest Chick:[/b] Hm.... Hard to say. I guess I'll say Momo from Peach Girl. [b]Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character:[/b] Faye Valentine. Always fashionable when stepping out. [b]Best Death:[/b] Hm.... Spike from CB. Always gotta go out with a memorable quote. lol [b]Best Anime Movie:[/b] I haven't seen that many, but from all the ones I [i]have[/i] seen, I'd have to say I love Spriggan the most. It just really appeals to me for some reason. The animation is very cool in my opinion and though the plot has been done in [i]some ways,[/i] it's still really good. [b]Best Anime OVA:[/b] Haven't seen any. [b]Best Anime Music Track:[/b] Speed Racer! No, seriously. Um...Clever from El Hazard: Wanderers.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Unit 100 Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Well, we're sort of doing something like this with our "Official Top 50" thing. However, if we count movies and OAVs in this, this could be pretty interesting indeed. Anyway, my nominations: Best Anime: Castle in the Sky. There's just something so classic about it. Best Comedy Anime: Azumanga Daioh. Possibly the most underrated work of brilliance in the anime world. Best Romance Anime: Millenium Actress. Uncoventional storytelling at its best. Best Drama Anime: Grave of the Fireflies. You simply have no soul if you weren't moved by this movie. Best Action/Adventure Anime: Cowboy Bebop. Sheer value of coolness alone gives this series some of the best action seen on TV. Best Mecha Anime: Neon Genesis Evangelion. Possibly the most meaningful and confusing anime ever. Best Fantasy Anime: Spirited Away. Trippy, dark, sweet, and one of the most beautiful works of animation. Best Horror Anime: Paranoia Agent. More disturbing than any other TV show, or most movies at that. Best Male Character: Alphonse Elric. Who'd have thought a soul inside a suit of armor could be so sweet? Best Female Character: Flay Allester. Psychotic hotties are always the coolest. Best Soundtrack: Cowboy Bebop. Yoko Kanno owns all! Funniest Character: Shuichi Shindou. Any grown man who wears a banana suit deserves some credit. Biggest ***$hole: Shou Tucker. I just want him dead! Biggest Badass: Hiei. Just plain awesome. Best Villain: Lord Shishio. [SPOILER]Him bitting Kenshin's shoulder off[/SPOILER] scared the crap out of me. Hottest Chick: Motoko Kusanagi. Ladies, if you could chose and specialize your own cybernetic body, this is what you'd chose to look like, right? Most Well Dressed/With The Best Style Character: Seshomaru. A villain with style. Best Death: [SPOILER]Setsuko's death.[/SPOILER] It had me crying for hours. Best Anime Movie: Castle in the Sky. A bit of everything from the great Miyazaki. Best Anime OVA: FLCL. A whole new definition of "mind-warp". Best Anime Music Track: "Obsession". Best part of the entire .HACK//sign show, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo Tremaine Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 [COLOR=#503F86]This thread was almost two years old when it was brought back- I don't think the original thread creator is even still around to bother counting the awards again. Besides, I'm already dubious as to whether these threads should be allowed or not. For the moment I'm letting them stay as they aren't doing any particular harm, but if they get out of hand they'll all go.
