[Go Go Ackman!]

Ova or TV series. There are a lot of choices, and about a million fansub groups releasing stuff. What do you nerdbags recommend?

 

[M3wThr33]

I like Bomberman Jetterz. It started off very immature, but a story develops. And Rockman.EXE (Axess, Axess Stream).
And .Hack
And Gungrave.

Oh god. They're all video games!

I really enjoyed Re: Cutie Honey, which was fairly recent.

Monster is amazing but i dont know when its gonna be done i think its been at 53 for ages. I have only watched it up till episode 12 and am waiting till its all done.

 

[Ironclad]

Yeah, I agree with Monster as well. It's great. Bleach is good too. Even though the new episodes are becoming a bit repetitive.

 

[Useff]

Yakitate Japan and Monster are great.

Nerdbags? Man, you come in here asking for advice about some nerdy stuff and you have the gall to call us nerdbags?! I mean, fuck, fine, nerds, whatever, but sticking a bag on it on the end... that's just crossing the line you fuckwit. You talk like this everywhere and get repeatedly punched in the face and ballsack? Because you should be you piece of shit.

Speed Grapher isn't too bad this season. There's also the ever brilliant Yakitake Japan. Eureka Seven I've heard was good too, and not bad from the 5 eps I've seen.

The only anime I ever recommend is FLCL.

Anyway since this is a related question, how many episodes of Inuyasha are there and have they all been released on DVD in the US? If not, are they going to be released in the US?

 

[BigGreenMat]

Monster, Monster, Monster and Monster. Most incredible anime ever. It is awesome not because it is anime it would hold up in any form.

Other anime is a matter of taste, but I like Yakitate a lot. Beck was awesome. Speed Grapher isn't bad either. Just try a whole bunch of first eps and you will find stuff to like.

 

[Go Go Ackman!]

How about "tactics?"

Anyways, in cutey honey (the latest series) why does the animation quality plummet in the second episode? I thought the first episode was amazing.

Zaptruder, shut up and take a joke. You're an insufferable whiner, this has been shown many times. Is your skin that thin?

Dude, I don't think I'm the one who can't take a joke.

I didn't exactly fall in love with Monster in the first 3 episodes or Berserk in it's first. Berserk was incredible though. Monster I haven't gone past 3. But I really don't think you can tell by episode 1 how good an anime is. Not unless it's Samurai Champloo.

 

[Go Go Ackman!]

Argh, I've seen all that crap, except "Monster."

Last exile meandered, .hack is awful, gungrave started amazing but was depressing and weird at the end... bah!

 

[radios shipping overview]

HONEY & CLOVER

Also, Emma and Kamichu (wait for the subs).

 

[Ponn]

Bleach and Yakitate are great. Trinity Blood is pretty good, more so if you liked Hellsing. I heard good things about Hunter X Hunter. Still watching Naruto.

As far as already released anime everyone should try and catch Now and then, here and there

Now and Then

The Hellsing series is very nice, good mix of style, action and music. Not to mention it isn't the run of the mill muscle hero and heroines....

That's US comics, not anime.

 

[kiryogi]

+1 to Honey and clover here as well!

 

[RiZ III]

Monster

 

[Bebpo]

Stuff that's currently airing?

Go with Eureka 7 or Honey & Clover. Everything else is pretty average or worse.
