I'm at episode 10 of Black Lagoon. I wish there were more anime series with this vibe. There are no tentacles, robots, or samurai to be seen anywhere. At least so far.

I'm on like episode 16. I still don't know what to make of it. I like the vash but the other characters I dislike. The dialog is horrid; even low for anime standards. The story is really cool. At times i like the art style and animation and other times it feels cheep.

ruv and-uh pees.

Kinda torn between finishing my Lupin III collection, watching Paprika again (this time without nodding off - it was late) and watching GTO yet again for the umpeenth time.

That, or Ghost in the Shell: Innocence. Have had it for over a year and still haven't watched more than 10 minutes of it.

i LOVE GTO, after i read a bit of the manga then saw the first disc of the anime that tokyo pop put out, i went out and bought the HK versions of the full series for like $20. the last episode was subtitled with the exact same subs as the second to last episode.

I thought those three things are the norm in anime.

If normal means no superpowers, no supernatural elements, no over-sexualized women (and girls), no insane fight scenes that last forever, no constant emphasis of style over substance, no futuristic elements, no mechs, mutants, goddesses, or otherwise unrealistic characters, no non-sense plots, or other things that you typically find in anime, then the most normal anime I've seen is Monster. and it's fucking awesome, though it's not 100% free of usual anime bs. There's some unrealistic psychological things going on, but for the most part, it's a straight up mystery/crime/suspense drama.

whoops-- I guess there's the whole slice of life genre too. but that stuff tends to be for teen girls...

What's "dmz?" Do you mean DBZ?

I have zero interest in shonen fighting shows (Naruto, DBZ, Saint Seya, etc.), hentai does nothing for me, and I find loli/moe really disturbing.

I like giant robots (Gundam, Votoms, Macross, Dragonar), Ghibli, Satoshi Kon, Leiji Matsumoto (Captain Harlock, Yamato, etc.) and fantasy/scifi stuff like Last Exile, Twelve Kingdoms, Escaflowne, etc.

sure there is. It's very possible to be into anime, gaming, japanese culture in general and not have interest in the typical mouth-breathing otaku pedo fanboy crap. (Okay, I'll admit I watched Azumanga Daioh...but that's it.) it's just difficult to find people who are very into that stuff but aren't fucking insane about it.

and damn Mudkip, at least post your superior anime list wars when you get high and mighty about it

Here's the awesome anime, with a few titles on there only because of toonami and nostalgia:

Irresponsible Captain Tylor OVA + TV
Last Exile
Paranoia Agent
Lodoss War
El Hazard Magnificent World OVA
Neon Genesis Evangelion TV + Movies
Samurai Champloo
Cowboy Bebop + Movie
Eureka Seven
Gankutsuou
Excel Saga
Azumanga Daioh
FLCL
IRIA
The Galaxy Railways
Dragon Ball + Movies (No Z here thanks)
Nadesico
Mobile Suit Gundam 08th MS Team
Scrapped Princess
Scryed
Tenchi Universe + 1st Movie (Blame Toonami for this one)
Read or Die OVA (Tv series sucked)
Hale Nochi Guu TV and OVA
Giant Robo
Tsukikage Ran OVA
Castle in the Sky (Movie)
Perfect Blue (Movie)
Millenium Actress (Movie)
Tokyo Godfathers (Movie)
Paprika (Movie)
Tekkon Kinkreet (Movie)
Metropolis (Movie)
Howl's Moving Castle (Movie)
Slayers (Original/Next/Try + OVAs + 5 Movies)
Lost Universe
Nadia

Big O
Lupin the III (Only have the 10 movies)

I havent included the ones I havent got to yet but bought on recommendation:

Now and Then Here and There
Planetes
Twelve Kingdoms
Z Gundam
SteamBoy
Aquarion

See now what I dont get is people come on the forum going oh what anime should I watch and instead of offering the WEALTH of older good anime out there that has been re-released even just recently, they offer up distinguished mentally-challenged fanservice butt wagging loli hentai bullshit that requires a download from a torrent site. GODDAMN.

I think id have the most trouble defending tenchi, but Universe was incredibly tame compared to the OVA with its nudity and furry crap near the end. Not to mention the SECOND movie that was full of the concept of INCEST. SIGH.

Yeah I think that was my problem with Gundam Seed and Gundam Wing. I mean I like Gundam Seed more than Wing, and its a decent show, but god damn the crying. its not even like, funny One Piece cryiing, its fuking emo crying bullshit. Heero talking about the fucking girl and its dog and then Kira crying in space and tears floating around while he fights his friend he wants to probably do up the butt.

Thats why 08th MS Team rocked. Dudes were dudes.

got up to ep IV of the OVA-- what a fucking cliffhanger!!! I think that's exactly where I got up to in the manga--book 6 or 7. It's going to take them all frikkin' year to release ep V.

I can safely say that the animation, art, and action in the OVA is some of the best I've ever seen in a show. I need to buy the DVDs so I can support these guys and see these episodes at their best.
