I just got done watching DemonBane. Loved the damn show, literally right up my alley, however, now I'm out of anime. Now, I will tell you all the anime I love and hopefully you guys can suggest something for me thats not Bleach, one piece, naruto, or yu-gi-oh.

-Tenchi Muyo
-Trouble Chocolate (if you can find a clone of this one I will love you forever)
-Love Hina
-Galaxy Express 999
-Harlock Saga
-Outlaw Star
-Chobits
-Demonbane
-Gundam Wing

Components needed to make an awesome anime (for me)
-Giant robots of death
-robots or puppets in general
-Rooooomance
-Comedy coming out the wazoo
-long running series (none of that 12 episode crap)
-lack of feudal era crap
-preferably in the future



Ai, if you got anything tell me.

Giant robots of death: Clicky
I haven't watched it yet but now I've remembered I have it I will.

Trigun has bags of comedy value as well as a great story and loads of action.

Elfen lied is a great one, more horror than anything else but it still has lulz. Unfortunately it's one of the "12 episode crap" that you don't like but even so it's worth watching IMO.

Gantz has action up the wazoo. If you manage to find the second series of it let me know cos I haven't found it anywhere.
madcat2179
I didn't much like trigun actually contrary to the fact that I probably should, something about some moron rambling on about "OH I CAN'T KILL PEOPLE! THATS BAD!" turned me away from the series.

Elfen Lied.... that wouldn't happen to be the massochistic one where they all either kill or die with a big ol' grin on their faces... would it?

No it's the psychopath with invisible psychic hands one.

With the little girl who looks adorable until she single handedly rapes anything and everything?
Hashishin666
Well she's not exactly a little girl. At a guess she's in her 20's. She has pink hair and yes she's all nice and says only something like "Nyu" until she rends everything and everybody limb from limb single handedly.

I think I'll pass, not a big fan of watching people get torn to itty bitty pieces by tentacles.


I'll be sure to check out the others though, thanks mate.

Anybody else? Seriously, a trouble chocolate clone would make my day XD
Hashishin666
Ah well if you don't like the gory ones Gantz might not be your cup of tea either.

^^ I haven't found an English Dubs, just with English Sub-Titles grin.gif I prefer hearing Japanese voices than English ones unsure.gif
madcat2179
I prefer being able to look at the giant knockers without having to look down every four seconds and be like "Oh more text, back to the boobs"

check my post here
Blood.Red
ohh, i saw a torrent for Blood+ somewhere, and it looked rlly cool.

im not sure if u wuld b into it but idk.

and gundam wing pwns, its one of the best gundam series lol.

i have every episode and the movie on my computer, took awhile to d/l but sooo worth it.
Anomander
hmmm .. why don't you give Kidou Senshi Gundam 00 ( season 2 is going on now and its pretty cool ... modern )

Also you could give History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi a try ... its hilarious grin.gif good.gif
Blood.Red
yeah Gundam00 is a very very good series.
Gundam Wing will always be my favorite, but its definitely prtty close.

if u want, i can get a link, if its still up, to the entire first season with very good hardcoded subtitles in avi format.

or if u want to wait, in november it starts airing, in english, in america on Sci-Fi.
bluRR
u can try "Ghost in the Shell : Stand alone complex" i suppose.... whoknows.gif

I always really liked the Helsing series..
weaselking1973
personal favs

(these i have on dvd)
vampire hunter D
vampire hunter D: bloodlust
Blood +
Metropolis
ghost in the shell: innocence (not sure what the relesed name is, i picked mine up in japan 3 years ago)
X [one] (good series still looking for the rest)
naruto uncut sets (1-9 the kids own them i aint allowed to touch)
few of the narotu DVD movies


(these i have on avi)
bleach (eps 100+ is where it gets better, both movies are pretty good)
samiria deeper kyo
gundam (any and every still gathering more and more)
full metal alchimest (the 2nd season is the best)

i am still gathering more but there are alot of them out there. just finding the decent quality is hard.

also if you have direct TV there is the anime network. they actually have most of the stuff that is on there posted to thier web site to. its just all in flash..

lady death was pretty good there.

clicky here
Padfoot
- Betterman
- Last Exile
- Serial Experiments: Lain
- And of course, if you like mech.. nothing holds a candle to Robotech (imho).

Just a few personal favs worth mentioning anyway. Can't say for sure that you'll find most of them here on DS unfortunately, but they're definitely worth a look if you get the chance. Fell in love with most of them back when G4 was still TechTV and you know, didn't suck.. And Robotech is just a classic. First anime I ever personally got into.

Also, will definitely second Weaselking's post when it comes to Vampire Hunter D. If you like the films at all, check out the book series. Amazingly addicting. And on that note, if you're into Vampire anime at all Vampire Princess Miyu is worth a look.

On that note, I'll stop rambling on. blush2.gif

Might want to check out Full Metal Panic, All three seasons.
If you cant find it i might be able to help you out.

And Evangelion, not so much romance but awesome series nonetheless

ahh sorry and noted

didn't think that would be counted as linking cause it was just the main web site not the acutal videos or anything.

wont happen again blush2.gif

On the comedy and romance side of things i would recommend Fruits Basket.

Ruruni Kenshin is also a good anime that has lots of different factors.
khaii

gundam 00: season 1 & 2
cowboy bebop
hajime no ippo
hell girl
vision of escaflowne
hell teacher nube
claymore
rental magica

The one anime that jumped to mind that seems to fit all your criteria is Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.
Its a little weird but it has humor, action, and a ton of giant mecha... its sort of a parody of the genre but worth a look anyhow. its starts a little slow so give it a few episodes.

edit: there are only 27 episodes (and its finished) but it felt long to me. I hope its long enough to be what your looking for.
