Another highly suitable candidate!!
Even though he is more of a tree slasher (movie #3) rather than hugger. :hehe: :hehe:

you collect anime figurines too eh?
cool. i should take some pix of my figurines....

Do I smell otaku-ness? :hehe:

if the torrents to Yakitate are dead or if you know how to get files through IRC, you should visit the #anime-empire channel, they have archivebots with all episodes.

Very cool. :thumbsup:
I'll take some pics tonight and post.

I always have to recommend Yakitate!! Japan. I can't seem to get my friends into it. And that's sad because it really is a great anime! It's just so funny. Oh, man.

Bleach
Aishiteruze Baby
Prince of Tennis
Elfen Lied


That's all I can recommend that are reallly good and that I have continued watching, because I've often quit on animes that I felt no need to even try watching anymore.

did u finish the show?

I absolutely loved it. Brilliant piece from start to finish.
Watching the Slam Dunk OVAs again. Highly enjoyable.
And have started Honey and Clover which is shaping up very nicely.
I think I liked Hajime No Ippo even better the second time through if that is possible. GANBATTE IPPO!!

Did I hear "Old school" anime? Im a old school fan myself.... more like authentic stuff like: Ashita no Joe, Gundam 0079, Mirai Shonen Conan, etc. :hehe:

OH YA! :metaldevil: :metaldevil: :bow: :applaud: :woot: :woot:


Are they not making so much anime movies any more, but Series?

I miss Akira, Armitage III, 3x3 Eyes, Tenchi Muyo, Green Legend Ran, Iria, and more (Series and Movies).

What ever happened to Sailor Moon, Gundam 0079, Tenchi Muyo, and FLCL? (I think they still show Gundam 0079 and Sailor Moon in Europe)

Why do they not make another Akira or prequel of Akira? :banghead:
And why they did not make more FLCL when it was so popular? Or why they made ONLY SIX EPISODES of FLCL? :banghead:

recommendations?? well, i'm not into the violent animes with the exception of a couple so i can't help anyone in that category. My favorite animes are Fruits Basket, Prince of Tennis, Sailor Moon, Escaflowne, and Chobits.

More recently, I'm watching Solty Rei, Blood + (that's the exception because i really like the story), and Shuffle!.

hello everyone...

i categorized myself as a newbie in anime, coz so far, i've watched only a few anime... hehehe... and i'm pretty lack of infos in this matter... so, could anyone recommend me with something that has the elements of humour and romance? and a happy ending too? (hahahaha), well, it doesn't matter if it's a teenage/school stuff as long as it's good and enjoyable...

previously, i enjoy watching the Studio Ghibli's Totoro, Howl's Moving Castle.. they are sooo sweet...

thanks in advance...:)

It doesn't get much better than Ghibli. They have a couple of more romantically inclined films, like Whisper of the Heart (Mimi wo Sumaseba) and Only Yesterday, you should check them out.

For classic anime romantic comedy series:
Maison Ikkoku is a great romantic comedy, from one of the best manga writers l, Takahashi Rumiko.

Hana Yori Dango. A high school romance, recently made into a drama :)

Kareshi Kanojyo no Jijyo, (a/k/a Karekano or His and Her Circumstances) is a school comedy romance.

funny show....it's quite a riot...welps as i said before if get passed twelve and you need a fix...holla.

Got to about ep30 yesterday, i hate being behind everyone, that "Goddess Hands" part.. i spit my beer out. :hehe:

qilver wrote:

want to d/l the first eps of this one (Yakitate), but some of those anime torrent sites have anime that have series in the middle or toward the end of series...

You shouldn't have a problem, i was able to get all the eps over the weekend.

recommendations? hmm...the first couple that come to mind are

Hikaru no Go
Twelve Kingdoms
Scrapped Princess
Infinite Ryvius (might be a bit harder to get)

both are more on the serious side but have excellent plots. but for more fun anime, i'd recommend

Inu Yasha
Karekano
Fruits Baskets
I My Me Strawberry Eggs
