The Definitive Anime Recommendation Thread!
« on: April 25, 2009, 09:30:01 AM »
Fellas I frustrated...i need new anime..here's a list of what I like and what I watched.


DBZ
Naruto
Bleach
Kenichi(History's Strongest Disciple)
Gantz(the only anime with guns I ever enjoy)
Tenju Tenge
Kurokami
Ayakashi
DearS- cant remember what it was about but i knew i loved the ecchiness
Law of Ueki

Currently downloading ShanGri La and Magikano to see if id like.

..I really dont like anything mech/guns/romance/drama....for me its all about the funnyish action with powers or magic. Maybe sum hentaish(ecchi) content inbetween for the occasional nosebleed effect.. Can anyone help?

Kurau: Phantom Memory



If you're looking for an anime with an intriguing and intelligent storyline, then this is for you. not really a comedy anime, but definitely one of the best i've ever seen. here's the trailer (which IMO, doesn't do it justice).

Kurau Phantom Memory trailer


Hajime No Ippo - The Fighting



Anyone who hasn't watched this series is missing out on life itself :lol: but seriously, this series has everything. comedy, action, drama, more action. a top of the line show all round. couldn't find an official trailer, but here's one using the "Never Back Down" trailer audio.

Never Back Down - Hajime No Ippo TRAILER - "RiCh0" End


I have a few more that i can suggest, but i'll leave you with 2 for now :happy0203:

and you wonder why you have nothing to watch ? There's tons of good stuff you may be overlooking because of your "preference"

Check out Sengoku Basara if you want something newish and fun with action.

havent watched it out yet but ive enjoyed this series so far..

Quote
Set in the modern age, the story is about Rokujo Miharu, who just wanted to live a normal life and inherit a Okonomiyaki restaurant. At the moment, his biggest problem was the constant pestering from Kouichi Aizawa and Durandal Thobari Kumohira, who started a Nindō (忍道 ?, lit. "Way of the Ninja") Club. Miharu wanted nothing to do with "ninjas" and turns them down every time. But soon, he is attacked by an actual group of ninjas and is protected by Kouichi and Kumohira. There, Miharu learns of the hidden ninja world Nabari, the roles of his classmate and teacher in that world, and of the secret art Shinra Banshou (森羅万象 ,Shinrabanshō?, lit. "all things in nature") within him. The secret art, containing all the world's knowledge, is sorely coveted after in Nabari. And because of that, Miharu cannot return to his normal life. He must become the "Ruler of Nabari" to survive.

Nabari no Ou...
Nabari No Ou subbed trailer


newish anime? Pandora Hearts...very different...Alice in Wonderland inspired...


Quote
Oz Bezarius, heir to one of the duke houses, has just turned fifteen. His life is rich and carefree, darkened only by the constant absence of his father. At his coming-of-age ceremony, however, everything changes. For no reason that he can discern, he's cast into the prison known as the "Abyss", only to be saved by a "chain" known as Alice, the bloodstained black rabbit. The mystery there begins as Oz unravels the mystery behind Alice, the Abyss and the strange organization known as Pandora. The series features heavy references to Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland" and can be considered both fantasy and mystery.

well i watched Kurau in English and the dub was exceptionally well done. the actress who played Kurau did an amazing job, believe me. but the fansub are out there, if you prefer.

Check out Sengoku Basara if you want something newish and fun with action.

i actually dropped that series from the first episode. it was a little too over the top for my liking. seeing 2 samurai start fighting only to fly 1000 feet into that air like in Bleach was just too much.

I mentioned this one in the Hajime no ippo thread but i definitely want this out to a wider audience

MAJOR

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=4115

Quote
Alternative title:
メジャー (Japanese)
메이저 (Korean)
Genres: comedy, drama, tournament
Themes: Baseball, Sports
Age rating: All Ages (Nothing objectionable)
Plot Summary:
Goro's dream is to become a professional baseball player like his father. As he strives through the path towards the pro league, from infancy to adulthood, his passion for the game galvanizes all of those around him.
Shigeharu Honda is a Major Leauge batter on the rise. His son Goro is a Little League pitcher who one day hopes to follow in his father's footsteps. Momoko Hoshino is Goro's schoolteacher, and the first woman Shigeharu has been interested in since the death of Goro's mother. The destines of these three individuals will become intertwined as father and son experience both heartbreak and triumph on the baseball diamond. But when an unspeakable tragedy visits the family, it will take everything they have to pick up the pieces and reclaim their dreams.


This one is true GEM, right up there with HAJIME NO IPPO. Its not really followed by the masses as it is dramatically underated. But i got turned into watching this while looking for an anime series to watch when my collection of Ippo was up. It certainly filled the gap and more.

So far there have been 4 completed seasons and we are in season 5. Watch the first 5 episodes.

You won't regret it

School days. Seriously, a mild-wtf type anime...with the most outrageous ending. I say that series (12 episodes) worth it, just for the ending. Nice in-between anime. Have my 4 stars.

I also really really enjoyed the Higurashi series as well. Can't recommend this enough, stick with it past the first chapter and you'll be hooked.

Terra look interesting. I'll check it out. My top anime are (along with Kurau and Ippo in post 2)......

Gungrave - This is the type of show that makes you proud to be an anime fan. And it has the most fulfilling final episode I've ever seen in an anime (and I've seen ALOT of anime :lol:)  

Gungrave Trailer

Gankutsuou - The Count of Monte Cristo - A new take on Alexandre Dumas' classic novel. This series was EPIC. Oh my word. The story was so intriguing that I often planned to watch just 2 episodes at a time and ended up watching 8. Yes, it's that damn good.

【PV】巌窟王 (Gankutsuou Trailer)

Mushi-Shi - Another classic of anime. Outstanding storyline, animation and music. Each episode is a self contained story of the exploits of the main character. Some the episodes had me literally standing and clapping. I kid you not. Watch now.

蟲師/「様々鳴れ」

Last Exile - I'm sure alot of you watched this anime on G4. Amazing animation, story and music *experiences deja vu*. Take in this one if you already haven't

Last Exile

Berserk - Ole skewl anime, but still amazing none the less. Again, the story's what caught me. Just wish they'd bring out a part 2 :crybaby2:. Oh and it's INSANELY VIOLENT, so beware.

Berserk - The Trailer


They're other like Blood+, Black Lagoon and Gurren Lagann, but those are popular enough. I'm sure you guys saw it already (or at least I hope you did :angry:).
