I would have to pick Yu Yu Hakusho too. I love the characters...well most of them anyways. I like the suspence after I watch a new DVD and I HAVE To get the next one. I also like the storyline. Heck, somethings on it got my eyes to water up like when Yusuke dies for the 2 time. And when Yusuke is a ghost watching that little kid. So yeah, I really like Yu Yu Hakusho. ^_^V

I like Inuyasha because it has a lot of what a good Anime should have. It has comedy, romance, action, dilema , drama, and they charcters are easy to like!!!!!! well TTYL!!!!!

I used to like Inuyasha, but after watching the entire anime series at 167 episodes and the manga up to Volume 40 something, I'm just really tired of it. I mean, kill Naraku already, and get over Kikyou, and just stop milking fans for their money RT!

*ducks Inuyasha fans* :animeshy:

I really think I just grew out of it, I mean, how many different ogre-like monsters can you keep drawing? I really think the series should have ended after the shichinintai bit.

Those of you who want to move on, watch...

1) Full Metal Alchemist (steampunk madness!)

2) Wolf's Rain (relatively new, only came out in 2003 but it's the by the studio who did Cowboy Bebop and wow, they outdid themselves).

3) Hikaru no Go (really, it's MORE than just a 2000 yr old board game...)

my favourite anime of all time?...
Possibly Rurouni Kenshin... :D

while i was reading thourgh all the posts, i was thinking about what people were saying and how i could encorperate that into my post. until i read the last post that is there (the one before mine) talking about why InuYasha isn't quite so good.

FYI My favorite is Inuyasha, WHy?

Pros of InuYasha: InuYasha is a great anime/magna. I hate calling it anime though, I'll tell you why later. ANyways. It really is good. I watched 1 Episode at Midnight one night last summer and I was hooked.. it was so funny.. You may remember the comment (for fans/.watchers of IY) Inu:'Thanks to my goo friends the Monk and the Hag...'. I don't know why, but that made me laugh so hard... Anyways, since then I've been completely hooked. Its completely replaced my over sized obsession with Simple Plan and now... Well here I am talkign about why its so good. Which I really should get on with. I'm really better at makng lists about things like this.. ANYWAYS : I love the plot, its so twisted and weird, exactly the kind of thing I would love as part pf any 'anime'... I love the emotions shown by the characters, which themselves are so loveable! I mean, who can forget someone like Miroku, or Jakken (that voice haunts you "Lord Sesshomaru, LORD SESSHOMARU!" *shudder*). The romantic stuff is sometimes cheesy and awkward but thats how young love is right? Its cute most of the time, that is when i don't wish to decapitate Kagome... lol jk jk... Also the animation itself is OK.. I've seen better of course, but its substantial. OK.. thats all I can think of for now.. To the Cons!

Cons of InuYasha: 1. Its sooooo bloody looooong. I'm begining to think the thing nevers ends! Seriously... 16-something episodes? That could take years with ONE new episode every friday. I'm still gonna be awaiting Naraku's death when I'm 30!
2. Now for why I hate calling InuYasha 'anime', as I promised. I hate calling IY anime b/c, after all the amazing artwork i've seen, it really isn't. InuYasha's animation is really just black lines filled with color and shaded poorly, that is compared to other things. SO i prefer to refer to it as a magna.
3. 15 year olds DON'T have THAT big of breasts, Kagome.
4. The plot gets a little dry at times and seems to go in a cycle... Like Kikyou, Naraku, Kagura, Kouga, Sesshomaru.. or w/e... The problems are like one big pattern! Just something I noticed


OK that about wraps it up. Even though theres stuff wrong with IY, I'm still a hopeless addict until I grow out of it!

love

The Sesshinator!

[quote name='QuincyArcher']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.[/quote]

Sorry, but Dragonball is real anime. While it's quality is debatable the fact it's a cartoon from Japan makes it anime. However, I would say that if an anime is forced through Americanization (not editting) in the dubbing, I'd say it wouldn't count as anime. Since Dragonball Z/GT and the Saban dub of Dragonball are all fairly Americanized, if those were the shows you meant then I'd agree with you. However, the FUNi dub of Dragonball is very faithful to the original with no big changes and if that was what you meant, I'd disagree with you. Luckily, I likely agree with you since you'd have to be around 5 or 6 if you were a toddler when the FUNi dub of Dragonball was on, and I don't think a 5 or 6 year old's parents would appreciate their child watching EVA. ;)

But it's not only the boys, it's the girls, too. I'm not trying to sound ...uhm...o.O like bad or anything, but Jeanne and Fin are really pretty!~^^ You know, in a good way, especially how the creator makes 'em.

I loooove FLCL. It was so outrageous yet it made perfect sense. The lovable characters brought together by the awesome soundtrack made FLCL an all-too-enjoyable experience. I loved how Naota would never admit to his feelings of Haru Hara Haruko but he thought of her as an awesome friend. It had some of the best parodies and crazy scenes of any anime series. The ONLY thing I couldn't stand was the outrageous shortness of the phenomenal series. I think Hajime Ueda is one of the best artist of our time and some of the symbolism in the show made it a great anime. Even the ending credits were a blast to watch! If I could do anything to change the series it woulld be to exchange InuYashsa's run time and FLCL's run time, not that InuYasha's a bad show, it just ran waaaaaayy too long. Second place would Be LupinIII, then Outlaw Star.

I would have to say the best anime out there at this time is Inuyasha. My reasoning behind this is that it has the best story line. Set in the Fedeul era of Japan.
Then look at the characters. Theres no denying the fact that you cant help but loving a demon boy with dog ears.
On the other hand the shows bad guys are the sneakiest that iv ever seen. Sessohamru and the best of all, and my personal favorite..Lord Naraku!
Thats why i think Inuyasha is the best anime.


Lord Naraku

My favorite anime is probably Yu Yu Hakusho. Although theres tons of animes I love to watch, this one has some of the best characters I've seen. The fights are incredible especially towards the end of the series (The Dark Tournament, Sensui, etc.). Its fun to watch and the character development is good as well. *two thumbs up*

[COLOR=Navy]My favorite would have to be anything done by Clamp, like Cardaptors and Chobits, Rayearth and X. Their work is so good and the stories are all about love and freindship and saving the world. it's worth every penny that I spent on them. i love to READ them too. i have collected alll the manga for a few of them. I even have posters and stuff like that. I am now waiting for the new Clamp addition Tusbasa. Now that is going to be good. I like other shows too, like Inuyasha and Fullmetal. they are really good. Show like Wolf Rain get me crying and shows like Ranma 1/2 get to crack up. Anime comes in all styles and it fun to see all the new ones coming out on T.V and also on movies. Only problem, coming up with the money to buy all these wonderful shows[/COLOR] :animedepr
