I think it's been mentioned already, but I have to recommend Black Lagoon in the "watch me!" category. Very good, very action-packed, and Revy is just awesome. *nod*

Seitokai No Ichizon: Hekiyou Gakuen Seitokai Gijiroku

LUCKY STAR on crack. They also mentioned like 10 different anime. The ones I picked up were, Higurashi, Lucky Star, Haruhi, Black Butler(Kuroshijitsu or something), and there were others I didnt get.

Recently I've been flying through History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi. If you are a fan of shounen fighting shows with some funny comedy thrown in there for good measure I would say check it out.

oh, did you know that Kenichi is a remake? there was an old Kenichi manga a few years ago titled HIstory's strongest disciple.

Yeah I was reading about that that. I only was like 5 vols though. I wonder why that one stopped and then another one got made.

It was ok, same story as the first arc but the characters besides miu and kenichi look totally different...like Takeda, the manga is getting really fierce I was on the same run as you a few weeks back, watched the anime then...went on a mangathon. I was even reading at work O_O

. Im totally hooked on Kenichi now. Appa Appa ApAAPAPAPAPAAPA!!!

You guys need some more:

Durarara!! (A guy punches a guy out of his clothes. Out...Of his clothes.)
Baccano! (Love the soundtrack, story and the characters)
Hetalia Axis Powers (Great for a short attention span, with 5 minute episodes and random hilarity)
Welcome To The NHK (A fantastic dub for once, and I love the humour)
Romeo x Juliet (Interesting take on the classic tale, it's totally awesome

)
Hellsing (Alucard is just such an awesome badass)
Sasameki Koto (lol, Yuri)

Hey guys. If anyone in this thread wants some good anime suggestions, then I highly recommend these series:

The Vision of Escaflowne,
Koi Kaze,
Haibane Renmei,
and
RahXephon

They all have great and complex characters, fascinating story-lines, and good artwork too. Check them out.

Actually. Romeo x Juliet is like... if Final Fantasy Tactics was an anime. It involves the Capulets trying to overthrow the Montagues because they stole the throne from them back in olden times. Juliet is the last surviving member of the royal family, so she's like their ace in the hole to claim right to the actual throne, etc. It's like an Alistair vs. Loghain sort of situation almost. Romeo is like the only non-douche in the Montague family and wants to change how they rule the kingdom, etc. but his father's like some mad king who murders innocents and shit, etc.

There's flying pegasus dragon things and this giant fucking Yggdrasil tree of life. Overall it's so loosely based on the actual Shakespeare play that it's really enjoyable if you dig the settings of the Final Fantasy Tactics universe.

Also, Rahxephon is like a really happy ending version of Evangelion.

What Link said. Romeo x Juliet does need to be given at least watch and not sniffed at, it's pretty cool

Maybe I was just in 'You know what? I'm gonna watch a shojo for once' mode when I watched it (Similar to me with Sasameki Koto when I was in a 'You know what? I'm gonna watch a yuri for once' mode)

Super Robot Taisen: Divine Wars is what i believe it's called, but it's a good anime based on the game Super Robot Taisen Original Generation. Good anime and game if ur into mech's.

B.E.C.K: I know a lot of people don't like this anime because of the fact that it has some horrible english voices done by the japanese actors, but it's by far my favorite anime that revolves around music. Must watch if you want to watch an anime that involves kids making a band.

Aquarion: This...by far...is currenl my favorite mecha anime. Anyone who is a mecha anime fan this is a MUST WATCH. The opening music is good, the fight scenes are good, the plot is a bit confusing if you don't pay attention at time, but it's still an amazing mecha anime. If you got time to kill and want to watch an anime about robots beating themselves silly, watch this.
