WATCH TENGEN TOPPA GURREN LAGANN, if you haven't already seen it. Now that's a show worth CAPSLOCKING over.

Or Cowboy Bebop. That's a damn good one too.

SECONDED

I AGREE WITH THIS PERSON! You must watch Gurren Lagann, for it will make you cry manly tears.

Out of your selection I have only seen Inuyasha. It was my first anime and has a special place in my heart. But it has two problems: too many fillers and after 167 episodes it just stopped without conclusion. Manga is still running, but is showing signs of ending.

I thought I'll give you a list of anime I've liked. Or maybe I'm just overly complicating things for you. In that case just ignore me. I checked your profile and hope I'm not recommending something you have already seen.

Samurai Champloo - a ronin, a vagabond and an ex-waitress travel through Edo era Japan in search of a samurai who smells like sunflowers. Has cool characters, merciless fights and isn't too long.
Hikaru no Go - A normal boy meets hilarious and cute bishonen Heian era ghost who really really loves to play go.
Ghost Hunt - A group of people solve ghost mysteries. They have different paranormal powers and some cases are quite scary.
Saiunkoku Monogatari - Takes place in a country vary similar to feudal China. Shuurei is from a good family but poor. Her dream is to become a government official. In the beginning she accidentally agrees to marry the emperor. Later it's more about realising her dream.
Seirei no Moribito - Water spirit has laid egg in second prince and his father is forced to command his death. A female bodyguard escapes with him. A beautiful and human story.
Saiyuki - Vary loose adaptation of "Journey to the West". Too many too stupid fillers though. I definitely prefer the manga.
From the recent ones I like "Shion no Ou" murder mystery mixed with professional shougi has cute girls playing shougi and a boy crossdressing to join females' league. And "Spice and wolf" about wolfspirit traveling with a merchant, but this one has only 5 episodes out.

Wow that became long. I hope some of it helps.

Wow, they all sound really awesome!!! My list of stuff to watch just keeps getting longer and longer! That's not a bad thing, though!!!

Thank you!!!

Well, I picked Cowboy Bebop just because it's a classic that everyone seems to like... even though I've never watched it. Heh. I probably should have just picked I'll tell you in comments. :P

I would say you should watch Blood+, but I'm not totally sure that would be your thang. Romancey and suchlike.

OH OH OH! MONSTER! Watch Monster! Serious mindfuckery, it's absolutely amazing. Brilliant, if you asked me.

OR - Ergo Proxy! This one has everything, IMO. Be prepared for much philosophy and mythological references.

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

Romancey and such is good!!! What is Monster about?

My nephew said I should watch Ergo Proxy as well. I am getting such a huge list of things to watch!!!

[facets.livejournal.com]

Cowboy Bebop Cowboy Bebop Cowboy Bebop DDDD:

Inuyasha is shit. Loveless' anime is shit, read the manga. idk about Prince of Tennis. D:

also, seconding the person above on Gurren Lagann. :Db

[facets.livejournal.com]

OOH OOH, or Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei if you're willing to be somewhat mentally molested. confusing, but awesome and pretty.

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

LOL, Cowboy Bebop does seem to be winning! I started reading the Loveless manga the other day and liked it a lot, so maybe I'll just stick with that then. *nods*

[dayadhvam-triad.livejournal.com]

Well, I haven't seen any of those, although I know about them. However... maybe you could try D.Gray-man? I just finished the manga and I'm skimming through the anime intermittently--so long as you skip the fillers, I think you might like it. (Wikipedia should tell you which eps are the fillers.)

Also, I second Monster. Haven't seen it, but it has a really good mindfuckery reputation (a little like Death Note, from my impression, although not so intense).

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

Oh, I was actually going to add D.Gray-man to the list, but I forgot. What's it actually about???

Monster does sound good, but I think after Death Note I need a break from mind-fuckery. I'm still a little bit crushed after episode 25!!!

[wyntermute.livejournal.com]

It's so hard to pick! Cowboy Bebop is a classic, you're going to have to watch that one anyway. :P Prince of Tennis is sweet because it's basically just a bunch of hot, sweaty guys getting all emotional around each other. Loveless didn't really catch me... Inuyasha is fun, but it kind of loses momentum after a while.

Or... You could watch Paradise Kiss because it's pretty. (And who doesn't love pretty?)

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

Everyone is saying Cowboy Bebop! Hot, sweaty guys being emotional around each other does sound appealing though. I imagine Prince of Tennis to be a bit like Ouran only with tennis, am I wrong??

What is Paradise Kiss about?

[napple]

The PoT anime is made entirely of three things: 100+ hot teenage boys (literally), tennis and crack. Any PoT fan will agree with me on this. :| That said, it's mostly worth it for the fandom. The fandom is completely nuts, in a fantastic way.

The Loveless anime was really cute and sad, but the ending was disappointing. I've heard the manga's much better, since it's still ongoing. ♥

I have no idea what you've seen, but I recommend Kyou Kara Maou and Yami no Matsuei, personally~. :D Feel free to ask what they're about if you have no clue about them.

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

PoT does sound awesome. I think I am mostly torn between that and Cowboy Bebop. I'll watch both eventually though.

I started reading the Loveless manga the other day at Borders and I liked it A LOT but a few people have said that the anime isn't as good.

I have no clue what Kyou Kara Maou and Yami no Matsuei are about! I am feeling free to ask :P

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

Oh, they all sound really good!!! Most things make me laugh, so I'm sure they will too!!! Thank you! (I am going to need to clone myself to watch all these animes! I want to watch them all at once!)

[keikeiaznqueen.livejournal.com]

Hmmm~ Hunter x Hunter. =D It's like, the best ever. If only the author is still drawing regularly (he draws like, annually now). It's just so goooooood. T____T The fight scenes are so good that I get so touched, LOL. I'm torn between Hunter x Hunter and Naruto, to be honest, but HxH has so little material and all, it's easy to know which fandom to focus on.

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

Oooh, what's it about???

[endofjulia.livejournal.com]

COWBOY BEBOP &hearts
It's where my user name comes from. The music (Yoko Kanno!) and characters and plot- it's just all amazing. I'm going to stop myself before I start fangirling or else this response will be 20 pages long x.x

My friend also recommends Burst Angel. I haven't seen it yet, but he swears by it. *shrug*

Last Exile was decent. If you're into any 'steam punk.'

I always fall back on Ghost In The Shell SAC, 2nd GIG, and the movie with these seasons, Solid State Society. The music is also by Yoko Kanno, and the plot is great! It follows Section 9, a group of ex-military/police through a bit of detective work as they figure out the connections. Here is the wiki link. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_in_the_Shell:_Stand_Alone_Complex)

Also, I wish I could fangirl about Death Note with you, but I've only watched up to episode 15! I have the episodes up to 23, but I haven't been able to sit down long enough to watch! (Once I watch one episode, I have to watch the next 10!) I'm totally in love with what I saw of the anime though! Btw- have you watched "AMV Hell 4"? It has a lot of hilarious Death Note skits!

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

LOL, okay you've pretty much sold me on Cowboy Bebop! I'll add the others to my (increasingly long) list of things to watch!

Oh, watch more Death Note! And then we can fangirl together! I finished watching it today.

I haven't seen that AMV. Is it on youtube???

[lala-lia.livejournal.com]

Ooh you have to tell me how Death Note ends ne!

I chose cowboy bebop. It's a classic! I really want to watch prince of tennis too but I have to find it first. I've watched like a few epis of inuyasha and it's actually quite good. Saw two epis of loveless but kinda dissapointing.

Have you ever heard of GetBackers? I think you'll really enjoy it!! Awesome characters :DDD

[ant-power.livejournal.com]

Death Note ends WITH TEARS!!!! (Mostly mine!)

You can download Prince of Tennis here, that's where I got Death Note from. They're real player files but they're decent quality, and awesomely small downloads!

I think I'll just stick with the Loveless manga. I'm not sold on Inuyasha yet, I read the first volume of the manga and it was okay but there's other stuff I want to watch first, I think.

I haven't heard of Getbackers, what's it about??
