What's YOUR favorite anime and why?

[COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=1][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]Alright, here we go...

First, there's Natuto. (Not in order of how much I like it, just out of the first that pop into my head) cuz I love Sazuke. And Naruto is hilarious... But ironically, I really relate to Sakura and I like her alot, too... Might be the pink hair, think? First manga I like all the main people (Other than RuroKen) Bloody and also, a romance sub-story. Awesome!

Next: TokyoMewMew. Kiddish yeah, but it's original! I loves Ichigo (I was her for halloween... Only I made my outfit and it was red not pink.) and I really like Kish! Heh... 'Name's Kish... Thanks for the kiss!' That's the best quote in the whole series.

KENSHIN!!! Next is Rurouni Kenshin. Out of ALL mangas & animes, Rurouni Kenshin is my ideal manga/anime (Other than my beloved Shuichi.) Kenshin's great. How can you not love Ken-sama? Long red hair, battle scars, beautiful eyes... And a blood-thirsty alter-ego the Hitokiri Batosai!!! And Sano is great, too. Lovin' all of them!

DNAngel is great because (Mostly) of Dark and Krad. Daisuke is sweet, Risa is oblivious, Riku is jelous and then suspicious... Satoshi is awesome and for some reason really seems to have taken a liking to Daisuke... Whiz is sooo cute! A fuzzy little rodent that can transform? Yeah!

Well, I can't forget Chobits. Hideki is a perverted (Yet ironically caring and protective) teenager who finds a broken Chobit and starts to learn more and more about her and maybe has feelings for her, more than just friendship... Another sweet yet twisted romance by CLAMP. I love them, they're great.

There's too many to count, but I'm gonna put in a little mention for my babe, Shuichi Minamino (Hence the user-name) AKA Kurama from YuYuHakusho. YuYu's great. Probably not in my top-10, but great nonetheless, but Shuichi's my favorite manga character of all time. I love him, I love him, I LOVE HIM!!!!!!

Later!

Mine has to be Naruto as the anime and manga both rock. I like it also for mixing humor in wihth dispare, I love the moves, they rock so much, and i love to do the hand seals. Sexy No jutsu is the funniest move in my opinion.
I think naruto is a gripping anime that keeps you wanting to watch to see what happens, but the only thing that annoys me is the backtracking on every episode as it waists valueable time ^_^

My favorite animes? I would have to say that my favorite animes are:

The Gundam genra except G Gundam that one was just stupid it went completly away from the concept of gundams as weapons of war,but the others did a good job story line and action.

My faovrite anime is Rurouni Kenshin,here are the reasons why:

1-It talks mostly about Japan`s past
2-There are alot of moves in the show
3-The show is dark and yet about romance
4-The main character Kenshin has two personalities
5-The other characters are also sometimes cool too
6-The shows sometimes introduces new characters that aid Kenshin in his battles
There are more reasons but I can`t type them all up.This is actually my favorite anime,nothing beats being a samurai,but mostly the ledgendary Battousai the Manslayer

[*]Yu Yu Hakusho- It's a perfect combination of genres: fighting (obviously!!!), romance, drama (I think), comedy, and all that other good stuff that makes good anime. It is easy to identify with the characters, and it doesn't get boring or repetitive.
[*]Full Metal Alchemest- It is a nice getaway from anime that follow certain guidelines. Usually, the lines of good and evil are clearly drawn, but in FMA, the lines are somewhat messy.

My favorite is either Zone of the Ender or .Hack//Sign. Im leaning more toward .Hack because i love Tsukasa, he/she is the man/girl. Haha Yea All the characters were mad cool. But Zone of the ender was very interesting. Although it is being slept on by fans. Some people should give it a try its actually really good. And then there are the many that i think are also amazing like Evangelion GGundam>>> ETC. OH and CHRONO CRUSADE is HOT HOT too.

My all time favorite anime would have to be Wolf's Rain. I love the art, and the story, plus I think Kiba's really cool. :p
I also like Inuyasha because I like the action. Rurouni Kenshin for the action and sometimes they have some comedy. :D I kinda like Yu-Gi-Oh, but I think it's a bit repetitive. They spend like 3 episodes on one big duel. I usually watch it when I'm bored. Though, if I said that to my sister she'd probably freak, she's obsessed with it.
I also like the move Princess Mononoke. I really like the action, and the art.

[SIZE=3][COLOR=RoyalBlue][FONT=Verdana][B]My favorite is SAMURAI X - KENSHIN HIMURA Or KENSHIN REROUNI ? Which one ? Never mind.. ..

I like it because it has an amazing story. Lots of fighting. It has romance between Kauro and Kenshin.

I like the GET BACKERS too because It has adventure and comedy and the character is really cute. I like Ginji Amano and Ban Midou.

I like GUNDAM SEED. It has fighting and drama. I like it's story.[/B][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

.Hack/sign is amy all time favorite because it has great music that fits the mood and its interesting that the characters are in an online game and that there are real people controlling them and how the real people show their personalities through their game characters. Another aspect is that everything is related to anime, like the games, manga, and other more childish and cartoony anime. They all connect to the main mystery of "what is the world?"

Also I love Cowboy Bebop. Im a pretty big Jazz fan and when I heard the theme song "Tank!" for the first time, it hooked me in. And its got such an awesome art style and storyline. Its like a noir film.

And Finally Ive really been digging Last Exile and R.O.D. The TV lately

My favorite anime is most likely Yu Yu Hakusho. It is full of action, friendship, and love between JR high and High school students. Plus there are mysteries about some of the character's past. You'll like it if you like Inu Yasha, Kenshin, and DBZ.

I have a couple of favorites...

1.Naruto-probly because I'm into the whole Ninja Samuria. I also take martial Arts and kendo classes so I guess I can relate. I also relate to Naruto personality. :D

2.FLCL-All I can say is that it's a funny show. I also used to be like Naota, but that changed.

3. Rurouni Kenshin- The same reason as Naruto I like the whole samuria thing.

That's about it. These are my absolute favorites.

Cowboy Bebop all the way. I am writing a few military books currently, but watching Cowboy Bebop has inspired me to use a lot of bounty hunters. It has really made my books really interesting.

Easy, Well... Either Maison Ikkoku or Tales of Eternia. Maison Ikkoku, because it's hailarious, and quite a bit like Love Hina, but much more realistic and mature. Tales of Eternia, because it's a great action anime based off of my favorite Video game. "Tales of Eternia," or "Tales of Destiny 2" depending on where you live. (Reid Hershel is the star of that series/video game btw) The main character, (Reid Hershel) is so much like myself, it's scary...

my all time favorite that i'll never get tired of is gundam wing though, presently, my favorite is gundam seed. why? because both stories present an intricate plot with a variety of themes. there's no definite good or bad (which is so cliche) - rather, you can see and come to understand the motives behind the actions of people. and this is presented in a mature and intellectual way.

I like Hellsing because its so gory. i absolutely love the gore factor. plus the story line is great.....it all ties together. the characters are great...my favourite is Arucard.....i get so many kicks out of Arucard's sarcasm and Ceres inability to accept her vampiric self.....its great.

i also love Inuyasha. My favourite is Naraku.....he's so hot and hes evil. but i like the show because of all the demon action XD....and its kinda funny....


among other shows i love are Cowboy Bebop, Rurouni Kenshin, Gundam Wing...Outlaw Star and Tenchi Muyo XD

I would have to say Saiyuki. It has action, hot guys and a good fantasy plot. It is based on an old Chinese legend just like the Dragonball series.

Well, I'm a new Otaku...I just got into anime and my exposure has been limited thus far...

But I do love: (not in order of preference)

[I]Wolf's Rain[/I], for the pretty boys and angsty road journey at the center of it.

[I]FullMetal Alchemist[/I], for the total angst between the Brothers Elric, as well as the intelligent plot and overall millieu.

[I]BoogiePop Phantom[/I], because it's so noir, dream-like and unusual.

[I]Cowboy BeBop[/I], because it's slick, cool, and laid-back style is the perfect homage to jazz and the blues.

[I]InuYasha[/I], because it's like the anime equivalent of romantic comedy. (Gotta love that Scheckshy Sess and Miroku :animesmil ).

While I liked the idea behind [I]Angel Sanctuary[/I], I thought the english dub did a horrible job. I didn't like the voice actors (with the exception of Crispin Freeman) and it lacked the full emotional impact that it's so tantalizingly close to...know what I mean? So much promise and it failed to deliver. I recently looked at the manga, and it seems a bit more sophisticated...if only the anime were the same.

(no offense to [I]Angel Sanctuary[/I] lovers. I [I]totally[/I] dig the Bish Setsuna)

Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi from Anime Unleashed (if no one knows what I'm talking about). It's so random and hilarious. Just the way they talk makes me laugh. But I'm also fond of Rane Master. Most people don't like it but I love it. It entertains me so.

First of all, welcome to the fold. Once you're sucked in, there's no turning back. :animesmil

I'm not sure that I would call Inuyasha a romantic comedy, although it definitely has elements of romance and humor. Anyway, if you enjoy those aspects of the show, then I strongly recommend taking a look at [b]Fruits Basket[/b]. It's a superb romantic comedy and can be rented or bought quite cheaply. I'd say it's easily one of my favorite shoujo anime, and something I've always wanted to re-watch in full.

Hmmm i have to pick just one series? thats kinda tough... If i had to pick one i would have to go with Neon Genesis Evangelion because thats the anime that got hooked on anime, and i mean real anime. I've watched stuff like Dragonball since i was an infant, but after watching NGE i learned that there was much better stuff out there and it opened my eye's to some really great series' that i probably wouldnt have found out about or gone searching for otherwise. I really like NGE because it has everything: Action, Drama, Suspense, a bit of Romance (though not much) and its a real Mind-bender. I've watched the entire series through several times and i still don't quite grasp everything about the series.

Cowboy Bebop ^-^ It's just too funky. Allthoguh I haven't *actually* seen the series yet :animeblus But "Knockin' on Heavens door" was amazing, should of really been a blockbuster! But it had an amazing story, equally as good sound track...I thank my brother for buying it for me with my money without my knowledge ^^
Series wise I would have to say Sailormoon, beacsue underneath it all I am a sucker for Cute Story lines and the flakeyness of the main character..all main characters should eb that ditzy and idiotic ^^
:animeblus I sure do :heart: that kinda stuff :animesmil

[B]I watch Yuu Yuu Hakusho a lot since I got the DVD's. I like it because it has all of my favorite characters like Shishi, Karasu and Itsuki. The storyline is nice too. It's one of the few shows I can watch more than once without wondering why I'm watching it. Some of the potential pairings were really sweet yet angsty and I like angsty relationships. [/B]
