awillfulmuse.myfastforum.org ~ Whats your favorite anime?

Alright, seeing as no one has posted their favorite anime!

I guess, I will take the inititive and tell you all about mine! lol! I love TONS of animes and really can't choose just one. Therefore here is a list of some of my favorite animes!(By the way, they are not numbered by rank of "most favorite")

1. Inuyasha

2. Fushigi Yugi

3. Samurai Deeper Kyo (Manga is WAY better!)

4. Sailor Moon (loved it since I was like 8 )

5. Ceres: Celestial Legend

6. Fruits Basket

Thats just a few, but I love a ton! I like all sorts, not just those designated "girls only" either! lol! So, Whats your favorite anime?

I guess my favorite Genre of Anime is Bounty Hunter-type.

My fav anime (all around) are
- Trigun
- Cowboy Bebop (even though I haven't seen all of it)
- Wicked City
- Dragon Ball

I'm sure there are more but i can't think of 'em at the moment.
- Howl's Moving Castle was good.
- Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind
- Princess Mononoke

those are also in my top.

I enjoy other stuff like Outlaw Star, DBZ, Scryed. Oh yeah Noir. Noir was good. I'd rank that pretty high.

Kay, here's mine (as far as I can remember):

- Full Metal Alchemist
- Claymore
- Kekkashi
- Beck
- Azumanga Daioh
- Nana
- Ouran High School Host Club
- Bokura ga Ita

I guess there should be more, but it's 1am now~ sleepy

I didn't like what i saw of Claymore to me at least it turned sour faster than DeathNote but I'll co-sign on FMA.

I would have to say Card Captor Sakura. It's the cutest thing ever, even with the diference it has with the manga story. But I totally love it.
Another great one is Death Note. It's really interesting, and imho, the best story ever.
And of course, the anime that started my passion with this stuff, Sailor Moon.

I loved Death Note anime until I watched the movie which kinda spoiled everything for me.

Btw everyone should watch the Full Metal Alchemist OVA. It gave me closure.

My favorite anime...

1. Cowboy Bebop
2. Slayers
3. Ghost in the Shell - Movies and TV show
4. Gunslinger Girl
5. Samurai Champloo
6. Aria
7. Macross/Robotech (there's a difference, but NOT IN MY HEART!)
8. Soul Eater
9. Scrapped Princess
10. Tenchi Muyo Franchise (even though GXP and OVA Pt3 made me want to choke someone)

Ooh, this is tough... I mainly read manga, so I'm ashamed to admit that I don't know as much anime as I think I should... ah well.

In no particular order:
-Beck
-Wolf's Rain
-Ouran Koukou Host Club
-Bleach (it's more addictive than drugs, even if it's not great)
-Honey and Clover, both seasons
-FMA
-NANA - though only because it has awesome music, I hate the characters
-Peace Maker Kurogane - for some reason I really like it

I think that's it... no, wait, 5 Cm Per Second was really adorable too. Yay for sickeningly sweet romance!

Its sad to admit, I have watched pretty much all the animes listed by everyone, but my mind must be slipping! Love Hellsing, Vampire Hunter D, (seems I have a thing for vampires), Cowboy Bebop, NaNa, and of course who couldnt love our favorite hero Vash in Trigun! lol!

BTW: Sailor Moon stared me out too!!! (With the exception of an animeon an old VHS tape I had watched since I was 2, but didnt know was an anime!~~ A remake of The Little Mermaid[love all the little Mermaid stories] and another called Grizzle beird)

What Is Grizzle Beird?

Grizzle Beird is it is about s stuck up princess whos father makes her marry the first man that comes along, after she refuses every suitor that comes her way. (She meets one man who she compares to a bull dog and whose beird she laughs at and calls him, "Good King Grizzle Beird!") As punishment her father makes her marry the first man that comes along, and it just so happens to be a king in discuise as a musician. He forces her to live in poverty to teach her a lesson. Then she falls in love with him and he reveals himself. Then they live happily ever after in his castle. Good story, STILL LOVE IT!!!

Dude they made an anime out of King Thrushbeard? That's one of my favorite Grimm's tales of all times! It's right up there with the Swineherd.

-Dragon Ball Z
-Get Backers
-Ouran High School Host Club
-Full Moon Wo Sagashite. ^^

I really want to see Wolf's Rain.. hey it has the word Wolf in the title I was sold before i saw trailers. The only other show I was ever sold faster on was Trigun (sold when I saw Character Designs)

I hear good things about Get Backers as well.

Being a long time anime fan, I can't say that I really have a favorite anime. There are so many that I like. That I keep on my computer so I can go back and rewatch them.

Marimite
Ouran
Otome wa boku
Nodame
Bamboo Blade
Doujin Work
Full Moon wo Sagashite
Ghost Hunt
Hataraki Man
Lovely Complex
Hidamari Sketch
Itazura na Kiss
Kamen no Maid Guy
Ichigo Mashimaro
Kamichu!
Melancholy of Haruhi Suzimiya
Lucky Star
Minami ke

As you can see, the list goes on and on. One of my many hats is working for a website called anime-source, dealing with anime reviews. Having written nearly 150 of them myself, and probably watched double that many over the years. I can't really say I have a favorite. But I tend to like the romantic comedies, and the more laid back slice-of-life humor type shows.

dude I forgot Ranma 1/2. That show was great. I used to LOVE Ranma. One day I'll get back to it and finish but man.. that was the greatness.

OMG! How could I forgot Princess Tutu! That's the best shoujo I ever seen! I totally recomend it. Ouran Koukou Host Club and Honey and Clover are really wonderful too.

Hrmmm... In no particular order-

Cowboy Bebop
Oh My Goddess
Scrapped Princess
Gunslinger Girl
Princess Mononoke

OMG!! I LOVED Scrapped Princess, AND Full Moon wo Sagashite!! Love stories and princess bring tears to my eyes. Actually, I think I really cried watching both of them. Not to mention, Im such a sappy emotional person I even cried watching Trigun. I even cried watching Howls Moving Castle and Wolfs Rain. (Which reminds me an ex-friend of mine named her baby using the name I came up with and I cried then too...

{Kadense Rayne}~~ I came up with Rayne! Hehehe!) Anyways, Howl's Moving Castle is great! The book is, "Oh, So much better!" Usually, reading it is better though! I still prefur reading them to watching them! lol!

Side note: I'm very random! My mind goes a million miles an hour! Please pardon my randomness, lol!

haha, my friend kept a running total of how many times she cried during Full Moon. XD We're gonna do a Full Moon Cosplay group at Animazement 09 in Raleigh (so far we have a Meroko (me!), Takuto, Izumi, throat cancer mitsuki, and popstar mitsuki XD)

My favourite anime are Bokura Ga Ita, Zero no Tsukaima and Full moon wo Sagashite (:

I have watched a lot of great anime so I have quite a few favorites but I'll shorten the list to the ones that come to mind at the moment. XD

- Kodocha
- Shugo Chara
- Code Geass
- Eureka Seven
- Blood Plus
- Itazura na Kiss
- Earth Girl Arjuna
- Card Captor Sakura
- Death Note
- Gunslinger Girl
- Honey and Clover
- Sailor Moon
- FMA

My favorite movies are:

- Spirited Away
- Princess Mononoke
- Howl's Moving Castle
- Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind

Those aren't in any particular order, just in the order I thought of them. ^.^

My list is way too long, the best I can do is list a few of the ones that come to mind... I'm probably forgetting my more important ones o.O

Ghost Hunt
Death Note
Detective Conan
Higurashi
Gakuen Alice
Ouran Host Club
Code Geass
Shugo Chara
Gundam Seed/00

~_~

Higurashi is just wayyyy too disturbing for me. I would be more likely to rank it among my least favorite animes. I watched most of the first season, and then the final episode of the 2nd, and read the spoilers. That was as much as I could take. I think episode 22 of the first season was the most I could take. The one where the girl tortured the little girl to death...

Guess I'm a sadist then, lol. I've only watched the first season. I'm currently waiting on a friend of mine to finish the 1st season so we can watch the 2nd together. I hope the novelty of the anime doesn't wear off in season two and I end up losing interest all together...
