As you can see I watch a lot of different crap, I also watch Subbed or Dubbed and don't really care either way. I'm just not sure what I want to watch that I haven't yet and require some suggestions.

Soul Eater - If you can get past the first three eps (I'd recommend skipping eps 2 and 3) it becomes a damn excellent show.

I see no Gunbuster on your list. This must be rectified.

Eureka Seven is really slow, but I think it's a good watch. Just don't watch the movie.

Monster is an excellent anime. I'm pretty sure Hulu has it, too. It's about a famous brain surgeon named Dr Tenma going after a serial killer. It was once described to me as Death Note without the supernatural elements, and while that's not really that accurate, I think it's probably the best way to describe it without spoiling anything.

krogothwolf · 08-24-2010, 12:49 PM

Yes, I just watched the first 3 on Soul Eater and was debating watching four or not. Nice to know it picks up then.

I've been meaning to watch Gunbuster, but every time I'm about to something comes up and I forget about it for 3 or 4 months. It's a bad Cycle.

Tried Eureka Seven and just couldn't get into it, got up to episode 5 on it and haven't watch it much since.

I'll give Monster a shot though, sounds interesting.

Julford Hajime · 08-24-2010, 12:54 PM

Mother of Fuck, Krogo, every single thing I was gonna recommend is on that list. MSG, Zeta Gundam, Chrono Crusade, Love Hina, Captain Tylor. That is my usual list of "HEY YOU SHOULD WATCH THESE" series and dammit you've seen all of them.

I recommend Digimon. I still love it after all these years >.>

If you played (And liked) Tales of Symphonia, you could watch the OVA series.\

When They Cry (Higurashi no naku koro ni (Or something close to that)) is a series that creeps me the fuck out, but I keep going back to anyway.

I second Monster and Soul Eater, as well as skipping episodes 2 and 3 of Soul Eater. The series really DOES get good in episode 4, and you are only confused about who new people are for about five seconds.

Totally gonna recommend Robotech despite knowing that it's a horribly fucked up Macross. It's different enough to qualify as it's own :P

krogothwolf · 08-24-2010, 12:59 PM

Yeah, I have all of Robotech, didn't put that on there though because I just finished watching Macross Frontier and was stuck in Macross mode. Robotech and Harlock is what got me into watching Anime though, so at least the weird cutting job accomplished something!

It's not even an actual complete list to be honest, I've watch more but just can't remember everything off the top of my head.

A Zarkin' Frood · 08-24-2010, 01:13 PM

Maybe you'd like Gungrave. Character designs are by the same dude as Trigun.
If you're gonna watch Gungrave, though, I recommend skipping the first episode. It gets repeated in almost the same form later on and is a huge spoiler.

Also, Gunslinger Girl. One of my favorite series, only the first season though, the second one feels more like your average anime.

I also notice a horrible absence of Neon Genesis Evangelion,

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya... and... Gilgamesh.

I'm just tossing out shows in my DVD shelf missing from your list, to be honest. But they're all good shows.

Also: Watch Baccano!

EVILNess · 08-24-2010, 01:30 PM

Majin Tantei Nogami Neuro is pretty good. Best way to describe it is Detective Conan, if Conan himself were a demon who tortured his assistant with diabolical traps and there was magical living hair. it isn't long, just 25 episodes. The manga has a different ending and main villain, but both are pretty good.

I recently watched Airmaster and it was decent. It's about a young girl who joins a street fighting tournament and then beats everyone's ass with the power of gymnastics.

Black Lagoon. Shit man. Just, Black Lagoon. It reminds me a lot of Cowboy Bee-bop, but that really isn't a fair comparison as both shows have entirely different tones. Currently, there are two complete seasons with 12 episodes each and a third season either currently airing or going to air soon.

GaoGaiGar. Watch it, if you do and don't instantly grow many chest hairs and cry manly tears then you are probably an alien, who will be promptly smashed by GaoGaiGar's giant golden hammer.

History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi! Probably one of my favorite manga (Although the fanservice has gotten a bit... excessive.) the anime is charming and fun.

Desert Punk. The English dub is hilarious, much better than the Japanese in my opinion, but still a great comedic action show.

I can probably think of more if you want.

phil_ · 08-24-2010, 01:39 PM

You've watched Dai-Guard?

Recommendations! Baccano and Gunbuster because, seriously, you need to watch Gunbuster and Diebuster. As for stuff that hasn't been recommended, Kino no Tabi is about Kino driving around on her talking motorcycle named Hermes, visiting independent city-states and ~~getting into trouble~~ exploring the local culture. She shoots people with guns sometimes. Great Teacher Onizuka is about a great teacher named Onizuka. There are antics. You'll like it, trust me.

greed · 08-24-2010, 01:44 PM

Also the Big O. It's basically what happens when a bunch of anime people see Batman the Animated Series and decide to make a mind screwy mecha series inspired by it.

Menarker · 08-24-2010, 01:47 PM

Ebichu the House-Keeping Hamster. :3

>_> Don't let your precious child watch it though. It may look slightly like Hamtaro in terms of art, but it is dirty, perverted and HILARIOUS.

You can even check it out on Youtube. ^^

If you can handle a bit of romance, I'd advise Maison Ikkoku and Kimagure Orange Road. Both are old shows and very long series, but they got their special charms and humor.

Also consider Golden Boy if you just want hilarious short stories (also not for the baby).

If you rather stick with action, I honestly advise you check out Hajime no Ippo. A prime example of a boxing anime and a fine example of an anime in and of itself.

... and you never seen Ranma 1/2? Try a bit of it!
