What Anime Do You Watch?

[philster]

I confess to not being as much of an anime watcher as I am a manga reader, so here's my very short list:

Naruto
Bleach
Nana

I have seen bits of episodes of different series here and there, though.

[Venom65437]

I really, really, really love Ronin Warriors!

Outside of that, I sometimes watch whatever comes on adult swim, thou I've actually seen quite a bit of it outside of that.

I will say this, Ranma 1/2 was hilarious, but not something I'd probably ever buy.

[janggut]

currently on the second episode of Witch Hunter Robin (first season). about to re-watch Wolf's Rain. & it's about time i finish the second season of Ghost In The Shell: Standalone Complex, as i love this show too much to just finish it off. i really hope the 3rd season will be available soon.

[philster]

I stupidly forgot two series that I actually watched to the end. Blame it on my old age!

Cowboy Bebop
Samurai Champloo.

Both very recommended.

[Venom65437]

Hey, I've seen Cowboy Bebop on tv! It's actually quite good!

[BJC]

Naruto
Ronin Warriors
Cowboy Bebop (had to DVD these guys...)

[LadyHatake]

I have (at one point in my life) watched
Naruto
Rurouni Kenshin
Sailor Moon (6th grade >.<)
Ronin Warriors
Gundam everything
Chobits
Wolfe's Rain
Petshop of Horrors
Outlaw Star
DB/DBZ
GetBackers
Inuyasha
FullMetal Alchemist
Cowboy Bebop
Samurai Champloo
GIS:SAC

Um. There's alot more but I don't remember right now. ^^

[janggut]

oh yeah, Cowboy Bebop is great! love all the characters in it.

i've seen bits of Samurai Champloo as well as FMA but i haven't the time to sit down & watch them. Sailor Moon, i've seen on tv & that's 'cos it's really a funny series that u can laugh with. same goes for Cardcaptor Sakura, which is quite an intriguing series.

there are many more that i've finished watching, including movies. maybe i'll list them later.

[Venom65437]

BJC, you watch Ronin Warriors? That show kicks all kinds of ass.

It's also the only anime I've ever bought. The whole series... set me back... more than I care to tell you guys. Worth every penny though, I'm re-watching it again!

[BJC]

Yep, it's pretty good. Not sure if I prefer it over Naruto, though. I started Naruto early. Ronin came later. I have tons of manga/anime DVDs that I didn't list because I barely watch...I'll dig them out and list them. Tons of dark vampire stuff. ;D

Hellsing? i love that 13-episode series

[SilvaShado]

I've watched a lot because Will buys a lot of anime. His collection is huge and I've only seen a fraction of what he has. I won't list everything I've seen, but here are the ones that I liked the most:

Angelic Layer
Bastard (Though I love the manga much more)
Blue Seed (I have seen Beyond, but it's weird to me)
Chobits (though I like the manga better)
Devil Hunter Yohko
DNAngel
Dragon Half (I wish they'd release the manga in english!)
El Hazard The Alternative World
Fruits Basket
Inu Yasha (haven't gotten it all yet, but one of these days...)
Irresponsible Captain Tylor (this has got to be one of the best animes of all time!)
Jubei-Chan (can't wait for J2 to be collected)
Martian Successor Nadesico (Another one of the best animes ever)
Maze
Night Walker (Wish they had done more of this)
Outlaw Star (Another fantastic anime!)
Photon
Pretear
Princess Nine (the only sports anime I've watched and it's fantastic!)
Ranma 1/2 (I have not seen it all, but Will has!)
Rurouni Kenshin (only the first half, going to watch the second half soon)
Slayers (not sure how much I've seen, saw it a long time ago)
Steel Angel Kurumi
Rune Soldier
Trigun
VanDread
Yu Yu Hakusho (watched it all!)

So I'm either gonna watch Rurouni Kenshin next or Orphen, not sure yet. Haven't had much time to watch anything lately.

[janggut]

woohoo! nice list, Shinigami! & welcome!

as for me, i have some to add & my list looks a lot like everybody else's;

Busou Renkin (Warriors of Alchemy?) - shounen stuff. something to get me by.
D GrayMan - another shounen stuff, i guess. will watch it after i'm done with the above-mentioned series.
Tehxnolyzed - when u grad from shounen, what do u call that category? ;D anyway, this one's more adult-oriented in terms of plot, issues & stuff. good one, with a feel of David Lynch.
Haibane Renmei - at first watch or glance, u might think it's a girly series. however this one's really deep & wonderful so i recommend this to everyone. definitely one of the best anime ever.

We have several anime movies but because a friend recently got interested in anime series, I've just started watching some of them.

The ones I have gotten from him and have started watching are:

Elfen Lied (finished)
Cowboy Bebop
Gunslinger Girls (finished)
Black Lagoon
Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro
Furi Kuri
Innocent Venus
Jigoku Shoujo
Kamisama Kazoku
Lamune
Paranoia Agent
Utawarerumono

All the ones I listed I'm watching as he gives them to me and the two marked finished are the ones I have completed.

I have really enjoyed all of them so far and I've been impressed with the music and the artwork in most of them. They are very well done. Of the two I've finished, I've ended up wishing there were more episodes of.

[Shan]

Has anyone here watched Elfen Lied? If you have, I would be interested in your opinion of it.

[SilvaShado]

I haven't but I think Will has seen Elfen Lied. I'll ask him later.

I too have often wished for more episodes when finishing anime. Sometimes it's just so dang good that I want more. But I prefer to be left with those positive type feelings rather than - I need more episodes because it was so badly written and they didn't finish telling the story.

[Shan]

Thanks Sarah. If he has seen it, I would really like to know what he thinks of it.

I've just finished watching Innocent Venus and really enjoyed it too. The story was really sad and surprised me. I loved the twist in it.
