Re: What Are Some Of Your Favorite Animes!?

I like the idea alot :). Well what type of category should we start with?
 
Re: What Are Some Of Your Favorite Animes!?

Favorite Character Archetype: Hmmmmmmmm, I would have to say the type of leading girl that's outspoken, brash, aggressive and short-tempered yet caring and dependable (Misty, Bulma, Aisha Clanclan, Ryoko, Faye Valentine, etc.). For the most part, I just like my anime sistahs to make me laugh and to have fun and lively personalities

I also tend to like best/first male friends of the main heroes the most (Kuwabara, Brock and Yamcha come to mind)
 
Re: What Are Some Of Your Favorite Animes!?

I think I'd give Black Lagoon like a 7.7/10. While I enjoyed it enough to finish it. The plot sometimes gets a little stale for long periods of time while watching it. But it builds back up again real quick toward the end. It's just you gotta be willing to get through the grinding. It's like a final fantasy game. Grind = reward.
 
Re: What Are Some Of Your Favorite Animes!?

I agree a 7/10 is what I give Black Lagoon. there's that period where there's not much going on and your all like, "Well um, are they gonna kill something now?"

And I like that Archetype too Metal. I would have to say mind's however is the team archetype with an awesome leader, Code Geass, Gurren Lagann, Darker Than Black. Those types are my cup of tea :D
 
Re: What Are Some Of Your Favorite Animes!?

I never watched the anime of version of Black Lagoon, though I did read all 9 volumes of the manga. Honestly, if it was just non-stop action all the time, I probably would not bother to finish. I like the moments where Rock questions the actions of the often unsavory people he his forced to associate himself with while gradually accepting his circumstances.

Anime music I like:

I generally like Joe Hisaishi's compositions that I listened to.

Record of the Lodoss War - Fantasia of the Wind
Tenchi Muyo - Ryoko's Theme

it wasn't really the lack of action that got me, it was the pause randomly in the anime series that had no growth or substance to the plot.

I'm sure the manga is better. As most of the time it generally ends up being better. Some anime adaptations are great though.
 
Re: What Are Some Of Your Favorite Animes!?

Who else wants to name an anime that they would like to rate?

You need to see them.

I consider Samurai X.... ART.

Like I enjoy anime.. but Samurai X is ART INCARNATE.

The story is just epic/sad. I enjoyed it 100% through.

9.7/10 for me.

Quite Possibly the best Anime I've seen.

I forget, isn't Samurai X a prequel to Rurouni Kenshin?

Yes, basically. It's also got 2 episodes for the "end" of Rurouni Kenshin.

Funny thing is I don't like Rurouni Kenshin that much. lol but I LOVE and hold samurai X to high esteem. The last 2 episodes(OVA) does flashbacks into Rurouni kenshin series. the OVA's almost made me appreciate Rurouni Kenshin.

The atmosphere between OVA and rurouni kenshin is just WAY WAY too different.

Ones dark and gloomy the other is a bit more happy go luck in comparison.

I mean... watch then last 2 episodes OVA that take place after Rurouni Kenshin... I about cried like a *****.
 
Re: What Are Some Of Your Favorite Animes!?

Anyone ever seen the anime Black Jack or Black Jack 21?
 
Re: What Are Some Of Your Favorite Animes!?

I think I've seen Samurai X when I was little. It's about Kenshin being with a chick right?

Like I said my memories are fuzzy

Because the relationship with that girl... is not a normal one.
