I'm watching the animes that come on Adult Swim (basically Trinity Blood, Blood+, Bleach, and Ghost in the Shell, even though Ghost in the Shell only comes on during weekends), as well as Naruto right now.
I know this isn't the right thread but I need a new anime to watch.
I enjoyed watching Paranoia agent, Serial experiments Lain and Death note.
So could someone recommend an anime somewhat similar to any of the above anime?
Watch Texhnolyze, Ergo Proxy, Ghost Hound (new series, might want to wait for the fansubbers to finish so you can watch it in one burst), Perfect Blue and Millenium Actress.
^What he/she said. Also, instead of listing loads of shows on my own I'll suggest you try checking out AP's recommendation feature, just type in your fav. anime and it will list similar series. In any way, be sure to check out Monster, that one is great.
Finished watching Death Note, finally, great anime though the last third of the show kinda sucked for me. Only show I'm following right now is Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. And maybe I'll finally get to watch Oniisama E..., wish I could get my hands on the Japanese R2s, how can they charge so much money...
I'm male, for the record. Not that it matters.
I forgot to mention Boogiepop Phantom and Gunslinger Girl. Also, I find the A-P recs to be very hit and miss. They're useful, but plenty of people just link all their favourites together without regard for connections.
Ergo proxy was kind of what stopped me watching anime for a while I got to episode 10 and stopped watching, does it get better? and if so why?Quote:

I wouldn't say it gets better, but then I liked the series from the beginning. If you didn't like it by that point, it's probably not worth watching the rest.Quote:

Currently watching the still running, still awesome Higurashi. In addition to Higurashi I'm watching Clannad and Moyashimon.
Was originally intending to watch Gundam 00, but decided it's not worth it after 3 episodes.
Been watching Desert Punk, man that's one crazy anime. The english dub has been done awesome.
"Remember kids, a real man knows when to RUN LIKE A LITTLE BITCH!!"
XD Man its a must see
Just started Tsubasa Chronicle, seems promising. :nod:
Uhh...I think I downloaded the wrong anime. I heard about School-something and I downloaded School Days, it started fun and stuff but then became a bit weird and...I saw the final episode.
It was disturbing, a lot. But couldn't stop watching it. Crap. >__>
Now I found out it was Rumble the one I was looking for. Damnit.
I can imagine your face, innocently expecting some love-comedy anime, and getting... well, you know. :P I think they were pretty much on drugs when they made School Days. :wacko:Quote:

You described it perfectly, I mean, episode 1 ended like: Whoah! This is gonna be interesting! Then...ugh...Quote:

At least I gotta give some credits to the creators, they really knew how to do it. I can't remember when was the last time that something (call it a book, tv series, anime, whatever) got so deep into me.
Yeah, SD is typically that kind of show that really has an impact on you. I kind of hated it, but I didn't stop watching it for some strange reason. And as you've said, they really knew how to pull it off, which is rare. I guess this was their intention with the whole series from the very beginning. :wacko:
School Days is...infamous. I haven't seen it yet, but I was around a couple places where the more interesting endings to that game and Shuffle! were talked about. Oh, and Higurashi. :sweat:
I finished Soukou no Strain, which I started after a mention that it loosely based off a book which I read as a child and rather liked. It wasn't that bad, actually; starts out with the four students of a military academy about to go to their final exam (a practical, basically), introduces them, sets them up as likable characters and a designated couple...then it kills everyone except the main character, all in the first episode. Tomino would be proud. :angel:
Episode 7, though... :nosweat:
About to start Sola. It was also recommended to me as something I might like, but I don't know much. Should be interesting.
Yeah well, I ended up reading the Wiki of that series and the game had several endings, I dunno, I was kind of okay with the cruelty of the situations (cheating, rape, etc) but not the real violent stuff, if they had ended it in the "everyone ends up alone" it would have been better IMO. :shrug:
So anyways, started downloading Trigun as well, if I'm going to get back to the anime scene properly then I should watch the mainstream stuff first. :nod:
Ergo Proxy, Chobits and something I've forgotten (has some boy with a talking moped... it's pretty awesome though. Harmless show but makes you think).
i'm now watching d.grayman and gate keepers.
and I think they are both good...
the first is about exorcists that have to save the world from evil... classic :p
and gate keepers is about the same plot, but there are evil invaders in that one, and schoolchildren with special powers that make them acces gates to beat those evil ba****ds =D
i like them both hehe
im watching blood+, bleach, Death Note, and gundam-00 :D
Finished Sola. Interesting in the beginning, and they hinted at this and that early on in the series. Such an ending is rather bittersweet, too, but the post-ending epilogue during the last episode did reduce the bite a bit.
Takeshi: *Serious look*
Mayuko: Wh-what?
Takeshi: I've always wanted to say this, but...
*Cue piano/strings romantic music*
Takeshi: ...your sense of fashion gets worse by the year.
*Music staggers and dies, along with the scene's dignity*
I'm not sure what I'll watch next. Somedays Dreamers just came through, though. I might as well watch that, so that I can at least have seen the anime my desktop came from. :angel:
I saw the first episode of School Rumble (YES, I'M SURE IT'S RUMBLE THIS TIME, GODDAMMIT) and it was pretty awesome. :XD: I'll get the rest ASAP.
I heard School Rumble was a hentai o_O
That's the game School Days - the anime School Days is not hentai, and the anime School Rumble has nothing to do with it at all. Don't worry, Fer! made that same mistake on the last page, too, to his chagrin and everyone else's amusement. For reference...Quote:

Nice boat is nice indeed.
So...I have overcome my fear to School Days thanks to some doujin site that posted the harem ending video of the game. I hope the suckers that made the anime would have used that one instead, but now that's the real ending for me. Yay! :wacko:
Adult Swim changed their schedule a bit, so I'm no longer watching Trinity Blood. Now I'm watching Samurai Champloo (on weekends only...) and Eureka 7 (on weekdays).
Well right now I am watching Robotech/macross I might watch Zeta gundam after I finish it. Tho I got a Nice collection of anime to chose from so Who knows :P
But... the bad endings are the best ones! :wacko:Quote:

And goddamnit, is it too much trouble to find anime in a damn normal format? >__> I downloaded the first ep of Azumanga Daioh and it was in .mkv with subtitles that were visible in KMPlayer but not when I convert them in DVD.
I'm happy with .avi's, really. -_-
Well I just started to watch Zetas Gundam todsay. I have all 50 eps and since I did not get to see all the eps when I first saw it I disided to start from the 1st one to refhesh my memory of what happend B4 I left off.
It's awesome all the way through.Quote:
