This is a list of my favorites:
1. Evangelion- This is my favorite anime ever. It has an excellent story line and the charactors are awesome. This is the only anime that I have been able to watch over 15 times. Thankgoodness I bought the box set, I definitely got my moneys worth.
2. Chobits- I know this one is rather girly and such... But it is something you can definitely cuddle too. I sometimes catch my self singing the theme song to myself "let me be with you". Its a very dramatic lovey dovey comedy.
3. Love Hina- This is yet another series you can cuddle up to with a gf/bf. Its also very funny. I don't recommend the American voice cast tho. So be prepaired to read. This was good times with Izret.
4. Bleach- Ive only gotten about half way thru this series but as I watch it is slowly creeping up to the top of my list. Its exciting and full of action. Nothing better than a guy with a huge sword killing demons.
5. Full Metal Alchemist- This is a very emotional series. I must have cried at least 6 times trout or became ferclempt. I really like this because of the story.
6. Cowboy Bebop- This was a great one because of the action. The misfit match of charactors really adds to the drama and humor.
7. Trigun- This was a very exciting anime. I really enjoyed it. I wish I had the boxset to this one. It's one I could watch again and probably a few more times.
8. Azumanga Daioh- This series is full of laughs and even a few cries. I absolutely love the creepy teacher who is always following the school girls around. This is an anime people can really get into.
9. Hellsing- What can I say Vampires are wicked awesome. Arucard totally kicks ass. So much blood....
10. Miyazaki Movies- aka Studio Ghibli Movies. I really liked all of them that I have seen. I have never been disappointed. The list from what I think are the best from the worst: Totoro, Castle in the Sky, Spirited Away, Steam Boy, Grave of Fireflies (I don't think this one is suitable for children), The Cat Returns, Nausica and the Vally of the Wind, Howels Moving Castle, Kiki's Delivery Service, Princess Mononoke, and thats all I can remember right now. But most of these movies are good family movies.
11. Outlaw Star- This is a really good story. I really enjoyed it. I'm going to watch it again with Izret. He hasn't seen it yet but i know he will like it. Its kinda like Cowboybeebop meets chobits meets Trigun.
12. Samurai Champloo- This one is tied with Outlaw Star. I really like this one for the story. I love the fight scenes. This one was really good.
13. Ghost in the Shell- The movies were much better than the series. The series is alright. I watch it on Adult swim sometimes.
LAST: Berserk- This wasn't a very good series to me. I'm not really into Midevil warfair and demons and such. This one was kind of a bore to me. Except episodes 4 & 5 (inside joke: if you want in ask izret why these are so special to him)
These are just some of my favorites. I have seen alot of anime and spend alot of time with it. I am working on an anime collection. If anyone is selling any boxsets or anything let me know, I may be interested.
