But thats hard, contrary to popular belief, mine would be split between Naruto, of course, and Natsu Dragneel....Tsunayoshi Sawada is the most easy one to relate with, and Ouma Shu is kind of a new favorite.
Uhm dont you mean future Trunks?!
That's another possibility.
Just kill me now.
Natsu and Naruto are kind of the same thing.
1. They're both pretty dumb
2. Both use brute force over strategy in most fights
3. Etc. Etc.
That's why he likes them, however I am shocked he didn't name drop Sasuske.
I'd like to know what the heck makes Ouma Shu so likable, he ranked rather highly in the online polls when Guilty Crown aired, and I just don't get why.
Fucking Fujoshis or maybe Kaji Yuuki fans
I think it's because he's that typical anime character which "shoulder's the world's burden" and such. I mean, his power at the end is
a magic arm that absorbs disease and such into it
Personally, I thought he wasn't too bad. There's definitely been much worse MC's in anime before.

I was surprised at how much i liked Yoshimori Sumimura from Kekkaishi. Show had it's ups and downs, but he was a pretty distinct MC. Wasn't a crazy perv, and had a pretty 'normal' face.
The whole cube magic thing in that show was pretty rad.

Although I like Sasuke just as much as Naruto, I wouldn't have Sasuke on a list of shounen protagonists. Sasuke is really only enhanced and developed by Naruto, almost not even caring about those around except for Itachi and Naruto. Maybe once he attains redemption and has a better outlook on life, then I would, but at this time, he's a bit too dark and lost.
Shu just seemed like someone we could really understand. If we put ourselves in his shoes its how we would imagine we would want to be. I liked all that he stood for, and that he wasn't trying to be a show off with the king's power, and actually wanted to make things right with his friends and protect them too. He seemed like a modernized and improved take on Shinji Ikari with even more likable qualities, and actually cooly accepting what he could do in the world.

It's difficult to disagree with this.

The irony being that you already have all of those preordered/bought.

Somehow: these last several pages didn't make me queasy. I'm past the ick stage, I guess.
Also known as the point of no return.
It's really unfortunate that Keiko Nobumoto retired from the industry. There's something special about all the works she wrote: Peek the Whale, Macross Plus, Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, Tokyo Godfathers. They're all unique and cool stuff which isn't commonly seen in anime. She also got to work with a lot of great directors.
I thought you hated the writing in Macross Plus.

That's a song by the band Kansas, Narag. I'm past the point of giving a crap about meat jelly, since I just had some spicy-as-hell ropa viejo last night.
People have recommended a lot of these already, but:
-Studio Ghibli films
-Haibane Renmei
-Usagi Drop
-Escaflowne
-The Tatami Galaxy
-Time of Eve
-Baccano
-Dennou Coil
-The Place Promised in Our Early Days
-Infinite Ryvius
-Kino's Journey
-Macross Plus
-Sword of the Stranger
-Now and Then, Here and There
-Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru
-Fullmetal Alchemist
-Fate/Zero
-Colorful(movie)
Why didn't anyone recommend Wolf's Rain.
Go to bed, duckroll. I don't know what time it is for you, but I can tell that it's getting late.
Too late, I've seen Bobby Flay cook with this shit on Iron Chef America before. Only a brutal ancient civilization that sacrificed people to gods by cutting their hearts out and played basketball with their enemies' heads could have found such a horror appetizing.

Back when I saw it eons ago I wasn't a fan.
Maybe I should give it a rewatch now. My tastes in certain things have evolved for the better, I may better appreciate a show involving a bunch of wolves.
I didn't think so. Loved the music from it though.

Princess of Tennis! The art seems a bit more... idk, different this eps. Consistent?
Youma was pretty hilarious. Wonder what's up with tuxedo mask. A reoccurring plot??

My opinion is that it's a series with a lot of strong points that unfortunately lurches ever further off the deep end as it goes on and
culminates in one of the most unsatisfying endings in any anime
The characters are always either wolves or humans, never anything in between!
Oh yeah, how could I forget the music? That's probably the show's biggest redeeming feature. Gravity might still be my favorite ED of all time, no lie.
Disappointing.
Amen.
Isn't Wolf's Rain just a reverse harem with Cheza as protagonist, though?
Would've been top-tier if it had yuri.
Nah; Brown has the
dog/wolf girl

One day everyone in this thread will hold this opinion.
After everyone else leaves. Or is 'removed'.
My most anticipated/feared news by far.
Can't wait for season 3!
Thank goodness for the books!
