Elfen Lied, and you should read both the manga and Anime. The plots of both really differ that much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Mad Fiddler 20 Report post Posted July 18, 2009 I don't do a whole lot of reading/watching anime/manga, what would you say is your favorite though? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roy-G-Biv 447 Report post Posted July 18, 2009 I don't do a whole lot of reading/watching anime/manga, what would you say is your favorite though? Gunslinger Girl is among my favorites. It's not just about girls shooting guns and beating bad guys like other manga. Rather, it's focuses on the individual characters and how girls lost their innocence (not anything adultish.) and their humanity basically. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MRvister 1 Report post Posted July 19, 2009 I haven't seen any manga magazines in stores, they might not sell them here. But whenever I think of Japanese TV shows, I think of 4kids. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zugama 29 Report post Posted July 19, 2009 Ah yes, anime. I'll say my favorite ever was Bomberman Jetters, one of those which is based of a game, and doesn't suck hard. Very touching anime, IMO. (Made me cry. ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris 1,206 Report post Posted July 22, 2009 Dood, I just tried reading FLCL...that things ten times crazier than the anime, and thats pretty crazy in the first place! Seriously, go check it out. The whole thing has a sketchy kind of style that matches the feel of the novel perfectly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CastleCrashingGuru 15 Report post Posted August 19, 2009 No mention of Cowboy Bebop? IMO, Bebop is one of the best anime series I've ever watched. Some other favorites: Full Metal Alchemist Big O Ghost in a Shell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some other favorites: Full Metal Alchemist Big O Ghost in a Shell Yeah. I hear alot of people mention Cowboy Bebop when it comes to anime. I just never got around watching it. I hear lots of "FMA is awesome" I don't know what big O is. Ghost in the Shell. The 1 anime that influenced the creation of the Matrix trilogy. Also, gunslinger girl so far is a great show. I stopped watching after episode 5 for some reason. But it was awesome. It's not entirely action oriented or lolicon like the title would imply. Currently watching...FLCL (For the hundredth time ) Currently reading... FLCL Neon Genesis Evangelion Blood the last Vampire Might read/watch... Tenchi Muyo (I watched the original anime, but haven't read the manga yet) FLCL, I saw episode 1. Single greatest crazyness since Jojo's bizzare adventure. Evangelion, OMFG TEH REI!!!!! Blood.........., sounds interesting. But I just never looked at vampires ever since Twilight or Moon Phase. Tenchi Muyo............ Nothing to say.
