Lately I've been very in this stuff so I guess I should share it with the site. My favorite anime is ''I'm Gonna be an Angel'' and my favorite manga are the ''Cirque Du Freak'' comics and ''Galaxy Angels''. If you want to comment on this or share your's make sure it is a viable and appropriate answer. Enjoy=}
Technically, DBZ is a sequel to Dragon Ball, though I do admit that DBZ is much, much better than Kai.
A short list would be Full Metal Alchemist (I prefer Brotherhood over the original anime), DBZ, Yu Yu Hakisho, Inuyasha, Bleach, Naruto (I haven't seen Shippuden yet), Highschool of the Dead (note, Mature content, episode 6 is NSFW), Durarara, Kenichi the Mightiest Disciple and Cowbot Bebop. I highly recommend all of them, but you should be wary of HotD since it contains a heavy amount of fan service.
there's already a thread on this topic and it should be in the popular media.
You have been awarded the Captain Obvious award. With it you get a warning to stop helplessly back seat modding.
I checked, couldn't find the other thread for this discussion, so I will just move this. And remind people to not just list up their faves, but actually make proper posts like above.
Personally I don't have much interest in anime or manga anymore, but I did enjoy Neon Genesis and Gurren Lagann. They have giant robots and explosions, everyone should be happy.
my fav anime was fruits basket. its really emotional and it actually gives me hope every time i think about it. it really teaches about life and it actually changed a few views of mine. its one of the things that made me who i am today.
Lately I stopped watching anime and started reading manga, cuz you don't have to spent so many time for watching how characters are talking, will they be just friends or something more (like "she loved him, he loved another girl_A, so she started dating with girl_B" for several episodes or fight, call all their attacs and explains how they work.
Just now I've been reading The World Only God Knows and High School of the Dead...Their not very nice though just anime you can find beside common anime.
Here's a list of the anime that I've watched and really enjoyed:
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Code Geass R1 and R2 Death Note Spice and Wolf The Daughter of Twenty Faces Ouran High School Host Club Soul Eater Hetalia: Axis Powers High School Of The Dead Kuro****suji (it censors that one but the English title for it is Black Butler) Elfen Lied The World God Only Knows Yu-Gi-Oh (the Original, GX, 5Ds and Zexal - which is currently ongoing) Dragonball (Original, Z and GT... sadly in the case of the last one) Sailor Moon FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei (and it's follow-up series' Pokemon Digimon (the Original and then all of the follow-ups and spin-offs) Bleach Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? Durarara!!
There are probably more that I'm forgetting to list but those are the ones that I can immediately remember.
Oh and these are some of my favourite characters from the anime/manga series that I've read or watched: Gin Ichimaru, Hollow Ichigo, Ulquiorra Cifer/Schiffer, Szayelaporro Granz and Byakuya Kuchiki from Bleach
Tamaki Suoh from Ouran High School Host Club
Zero/Lelouch Lamperouge and Suzaku Kururugi from Code Geass
Well I could make a large list of both Manga, Animes, and Characters but for now I am going to compress it. My top five Animes at the moment have to be, these are my favorite animes not the best I have seen, Spice And Wolf and Baccano, Code Geass and Death Note, and lastly but not least Dead Leaves which is a movie. For Characters I have to say Franken Stein, Retro and Pandy, Jacuzzi Splot, Lad Russo, Monkey D. Luffy, Kira/Raito Yagami, L (hated M), of course Ayumu "Osaka" Kasuga, and last but certainly not least Alucard. There are many more that unfortunately did not make the cut today.
I haven't really decided which manga is my favourite but I have read Fullmetal Alchemist, Naruto, Bleach, Death Note, Bakuman and Katekyo Hitman Reborn!
I really liked death note (liked it less when N came). It had a good story, amd the characters were great. It was pretty realistic too. I also like one piece and my favorite character would probably be luffy, or zoro. I've seen some of soul eater and it was pretty good. The charaters were unexpected and they surprise you.
