I recently got myself a DVD drive, so I can FINALLY get movie DVDs and such. I got Princess Mononoke last week (I never believed I would see something like that in a store near here o.O ) I really enjoyed that movie, and it confirmed to me that I want more anime. However, I don\'t really know where to start. Do any of you people have some buying recommendations for me?

Thanks in advance :D

Gundam Wing, Yu Yu Hakusho, Slayers, and Ronin Warriors are excellent choices. :D So is Rockman.EXE (But we all know that). If you like sappy love stories, Fushigi Yuugi is good too. Also, go for Bastard! and Dominion Tank Police, or even Ranma 1/2. And if you want Stereotypical, get Tenchi Muyo!

If you can find it, try Hunter X Hunter and Detective Conan.... Those are interesting too...;)

You started off with Princess Mononoke? Heh, I\'ve only just heard of it about a week ago.

But, to really start you off with anime get Neon Genesis. Then the rest that are pretty good would be... Dragon Ball Z, Samurai Pizza Cats :lol:, Tenchi Muyo, and if it intrests you Pokemon or Sailor Moon lol :rolleyes:

Mister Cossack sir..wouldn\'t it be smarter to go to a site which has anime reviews or the like? So you can see the anime\'s general storyline, and then you can decide if it sounds good or not. o.o

Heh..that\'s why I watched a few episodes of Escaflowne.. And people also seem to like Evangelion alot. *shrug*

Then, Miss Hollow, do you know of any such sites? I don\'t know any. ;)

BTW Packard, Harmony of Dissonance is due in September I believe... I know I\'ll have the money by then, so that\'s no problem :)

Personally, I detest Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, and Hamtaro. My favorites are Robotech, Ranma 1/2, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Mobile Suit Gundam: 08th MS Team.

\"Night of the Fireflies,\" or \"Barefoot Gen\" are a couple of good anime movies (anti-war drama).

Kenshin is good. I like it a lot but there is always some weird plot to have a sword fight in every episode like pokemon and an attack in every episode.
But anyway its all good :D

Vash, you relly like that war-related crap? You\'re such a sadistic bastard:P But take that as a compliment, since I\'m like you. I think our buddy Big would like to see that, although I dunno if he\'s into such war mangas/animes. That firefly movie had me shedding tears.

Seems like a late responce now, but I did see grave of the fireflies, and liked it a lot. It shows that even a cartoon can carry strong stories and emotions that some major studios, can\'t seem to produce.


I think what I like most about bacon burgers, is the fact that two different animals had to die for me to eat one. :miam:

[font=Tahoma] Oh you did see it, eh Big? I guess the anime partially did attribute to your character then
By the way, have you ever seen Guinea Pig? I heard it had a lot of terrible shit in it.

Have you ever seen Ninja Scroll? I really like it! If your into RPG\'s and Fedeal Japan you\'ll like Ninja Scroll! I also wanted to see an anime called Ninja Cadets. Has anyone heard of it or seen it? If your into Sci-Fi Anime, try Ghost-In-A-Shell. It wasn\'t that bad I thought. I love Kenshin/Samuri X. I use to like DBZ but, I don\'t really like it anymore. Why? Because I got bored of it. Other then that, those are my opinions.:)

I like GTO, myself. I know what you\'re all saying out there- YOU PERVERT! I know, I know....But I like it anyways. :D

I don\'t know a lot of anime myself....Cowboy Bebop is a good one, and then there\'s Akira....Ohhh, yes! Akira is a most kick ass movie! You must get it (or at least see it.....It\'s a really good movie!)!

*OFF-TOPIC* If you ever do get it, notice the little kid in the hoverchair- Doesn\'t he look like Louie Anderson? (You know, the guy that used to host Family Feud?) That face will haunt me for a looong time.....*sigh*.......


Reality swirled in a wholly blue manner, revealing absolutely nothing of merit. Things flashed madly in and out of existence like some entirely other sort of phenomena. On a whim, Kurt Vonnegut imploded, taking a sizeable hunk of Massachusetts with him. However, seeing as Massachusetts wasn't entirely sure it existed, the chunk wasn't all that big.
