I watch anime sometimes. . . usually hard to, since I don't have cable or anything like that, I just have regular t.v. so I don't get to watch it until the weekends.

I like Anime, though I suppose hardcore anime fans would consider my views of Anime diluted since most of what I watch is main stream. I've seen all of DBZ, Pokemon, Yugioh, a small amount of Beyblade and Duel Masters.. let's see now... A few episodes of that new show Eureka Seven, some Ghost in the Shell, I have a DVD of Lady Death and of Evangelion, I watche Trigun while it was on adult swim, I think they removed it, I saw a lot of Ruroni Kenshin, I saw one Samurai X movie, I own FF7 Advent Children, I watch FMA, I saw the first season of IGPX, Although it was only 5 episodes I loved Foolie Coolie, I watched every movie from the "Month of Miyazaki" marathon on Toonami,of Manga I have 3 Yugioh Mangas and 2 Escaflowne Mangas, though I do believe the Escaflowne mangas differ from the Anime of the same name. I watch Inuyasha though I don't particularly like it, and I did see some Cowboy Bebop. I saw Armitage the Third on SciFi once and liked it, though I have been unable to find a DVD.

So that is basically my history of Anime. Whether some of that is hardcore anime or "kiddy" stuff, I don't know.

If there is a bright center to the Universe, I'm i
Yeah... whoa. I don't really like anime cuz' it's what keeps my friend from practicing SSBM with me (he watches Naruto, go figure...), but I used to really like Tenchi Universe, Pokemon, and I still like DBZ. If Majin Buu were a playable character I'd totally own w/ him!

Oh, I forgot about Naruto. Don't know how I could forget one of my favorite shows. Didn't know they were showing Tenchi Universe, that's the one that doesn't have the same characters from all the other ones, right?

I was just bored with seeing the same old characters over again, and I got confused when the Tenchi shows had different origins of how they met in spite of being the same characters. :\ the new tenchi was supposed to be him going to some space school and the new ryoko is some girl who has the power to turn into a dog girl or something like that.

Dragonball Z still my favorite. It was my first anime i ever watched. Naruto and Bleach are good. And of course Hellsing. I own lots of Manga and anime. So good. Cromartie High School one of the best anime's ever.

Cowboy Bebop = classic that never gets old.

The best show was Kenshin. That used to be on cartoon network...I miss that show.
definitely, that was my all time favourite, but I never watched it in english, nor do I care to. Quite frankly, I think the english dubs suck compared to the japanese voiceovers.

... I was more careful than normal when I voted on this pole, because I knew that when you said "ANIME", I knew that you meant Bleach, Naruto, Full Metal, and all those other
stupid
anime TV shows. I never did like those... well... I guess The Slayers is ok... Pokemon & Crayon Shinchan are good too.

Don't fear, though. I DO LOVE ANIME!!! I am a Studio Ghibli fan. Castle in the Sky (Japanese version, PLEASE!!!) is probably my favorite anime movie, then- Whisper of the Heart, Princess Mononoke, The Cat Returns, Grave of the Fireflies, Pom Poko, Nausicaa, My Neighbor Totoro, Howl's Moving Castle, and On Your Mark!!! ...just to name a few... I'm still waiting for Gedo Senki (Warstories of Ged, or Tales from Earthsea). Wow... long post... -OYM ...PS- go to Nausicaa.net

Hisoka is my 2nd favorite villain of all-time... right behind Vicious of Bebop.

My top 5 anime:
1. Elfen Lied (gory, lot's of death, very engaging story, only 13 eps though)
2. Azumanga Daioh (Ridculously funny, cute comedy about a bunch of HS girls.)
3. Honey & Clover (Features introspective looks about life and love from a group of college students with a bunch of funny moments)
4. Fullmetal Alchemist (don't think I need to explain)
5. School Rumble (romantic comedy with an emphasis on the comedy)

I'm currently watching Basilisk. It's sort of like Naruto for older people. There's a bunch of ninjas who do their own special jutsus... except the series is much bloodie and the characters are much less attractive and there's no kids involved.

I stopped watching Naruto and Bleach fillers a few months ago. I'll watch them again when they get back on track.

Just Naruto and Bleach here.

Incidently, has the Naruto fillers finished yet?
:mad: No to the naruto fillers, unfortunately. One of my friends was saying they weren't going to stop the fillers till they hit 200 or so. I could be wrong though. Please don't quote me.

All I watch currently is Naruto. Every now and then I'll watch Black Cat at one of my friend's house, or I'll watch GetBackers on OnDemand. I wanna see all the Gundam stuff because it's my other friend's favorite anime, and he likes good anime, imo. The only Gundam series I've seen so far would be Gundam Wing.

I don't have time to watch Television, but anime is entertaining; It has always given a warm, fuzzy feeling. To be honest, I'm not sure why.:laugh:

I watch some anime but not really that much. I watch Evangelion, DBZ, Fullmetal Alchemist and have seen a bit of a thing called GetBackers (but not really enough to have an opinion on it). I did enjoy Ghost In The Shell alot.

I really like Anime, and I've just gone to Anime Expo for the first time this year (Anime Expo 2006). It was so much fun, pointing out every single cosplayed anime character that I recognized. ^_^

I liked Wolf's Rain a lot when it was on [as]. Anime's addicting, if you catch an episode, you find yourself watching it again and again. That's what happened with me and Fullmetal Alchemist for like a month. Then I got a girlfriend.
