Anyone here watch anime? Any good series? I'm just finishing up Darker Than Black, and I have to say I really like it.

stay clear of shounen. Thats stuff like Bleach, Naruto and DragonBall. They usually go on endlessly and are pretty predictable.

Also if you like fighting robots the gundam 00 series isnt to bad, i enjoyed it and i dont really like any of the Other Gundam.. I guess if i knew more of what you liked i could help you out more!

How could I forget to list my favourite anime of all times ever: Code Geass! Seriously that show is secks. Combine Death Note and big robots fighting over Japan and you get epic win.

And Id totally go gay for Lelouch. But ehm...thats just me.

I watched Howl's Moving Castle this weekend (sorry, I'm not cool enough to know the name in Japanese.)

Was pretty cool though. I like most Miyazaki stuff. Not a big anime fan in general (I'm not really into the 12 year series made for 11 year old girls) but I do like a lot of his work.

Ehr there are a lot of anime definatly not made for 11 year old girls. Or kids in general. Go check out Elfen Lied if you want proof. It contains more gore the an average horror movie, more nude then porn movies and touchy subjects such as child abuse.....

Here's my favorites:
Cowboy Bebop, Gungrave, Ghost in the Shell, Elfen Lied, FLCL (Furi Kuri), Trigun

My favorite is Ghost in the Shell, and  the two weirdest ones are Elfen Lied and FLCL.

Lexus, I know. What I meant was a lot of adults that are into anime are willing to watcg 500 episode series designed for children just becuase it's anime.

Death Note is absolutely the best anime series I've ever seen.

I also recommend Berserk if you're not allergic to brutal violence (you could start with the anime, but the manga is a lot better - the best one I've read).

Eyeshield 21 is a lot of fun too.

I've never had the motivation to really get into anime, but I do enjoy Trigun, Big O, Cowboy Bebop, and some of the old Gundam stuff.
