Gábor's blog http://www.nekomancer.net/node/124/atom/feed 2008-05-05T16:55:29-05:00 my favourite anime http://www.nekomancer.net/anime 2006-03-19T11:16:31-06:00 2008-05-05T16:55:29-05:00 gabor if you don’t know what anime is, try this short anime clip from Fruits Basket…. here’s my list of favourites:

flcl
alias furi-kuri alias flcl…. VERY good anime, but don’t watch this as your first anime… too weird
melancholy of haruhi suzumiya
a very strange story. it was aired in a strange order too. make sure to watch it in the airing-order (and not in the “episode-number” order)
mahou shoujo tai arusu (tweeny witches)
40 10minute episodes of great story and fantastic drawing
hellsing
it’s about vampires in england…. and because i really like vampires,….:-)
trigun
begins as western/comedy/sci-fi, but becomes a lot more-serious/sadder after some time
cowboy-bebop
something like trigun, but more serious… and wonderful music
ghost hunt
a team of ghost hunters with a narcistic leader :)
rurouni kenshin OVA
not the tv-series, but the OVAs… … a sad but wonderful story, well perharps not sad all the time… a must see
tsukuyomi moon phase
the story of a nekomimi loli vampire girl (not joking) :)
gilgamesh
nice drawing style, interesting story that keeps you wanting to watch the next and the next and the next episode until the end of the series ;)
slayers
. all the 3 series + the movies + the OVAs… but the first series is the best…
neon genesis evangelion
well… if you haven’t seen this, you can’t really say you’ve seen anime…. a classic piece….. be prepared…. anime usually uses a lot of mythology + christian terminology ( maybe it’s exotic to them )…. but you really should see this… and don’t forget the movie too ( watch it AFTER the series )
noein
probability and (un)certainity, dragon knights in black coats and wonderful somehow-old-school-but-still-very-unique-and-detailed graphics
shingentsutan tsukihime
a vampire girl(800years old, so maybe woman is a better term:-). ..do i have to tell more?
noir
oh my dear, how could i forget to list you there :) (thx to ondrej) for reminding me). it’s a story about two assasin girls living/working in france. beautiful music, interesting story (but the creators didn’t really understand the christianity and it’s principles (as always :-)))
azumanga
it’s a weird anime about some schoolgirls, but the atmosphere is well.. weird.. and the humour/jokes is fenomenal
elfen lied
(means elfsong) …. lots of blood, and cruelty… interesting story, likeable characters
Ghost in the Shell
the movie… a great cyberpunk movie… a must see
saikano
the real name is “Saishuu Heiki Kanojo” … interesting story, but: it’s a VERY sad story… you’ve been warned..
mahoro
android maid by gainax, do i have to say anytghing else?
cossette
Le Portrait de Petit Cossette…great horror anime… welll…. maybe not completely horror, but definitively dark…. ove the drawing style
blue submarine no.06
ova…. i recommend it very much… interesting…
melody of oblivion
gainax, interesting (in some parts CRAZY) story, interesting characters… fun…
blue gender
nice story, interesting character development , i definitively recommend it… one advice for those who are watching episodes (15–20): yes, it is very sad, but it will get better ( a lot :-)
