What is your favourite Anime?

I wanted to start such a thread too^^ So what is you favourite anime? Old one (like first digimon season), new one (like one or two years ago) and from the last season?^^

For me it would be
old: Digimon the first two seasons, just because nostalgia^^
new: Log Horizon, even better than SAO^^
last season: Shokugeki no Souma.

Ghost in the Shell all the way!

Iā€™ve actually never gotten into anime, but Iā€™ve still watched a few good ones, namely Sword Art Online, High School of the Dead, Death Parade, and Assassination Classroom.

you watched some good ones^^ And it is never too late to get into anime :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Never saw that one actually. But it looked good in every trailer/amv etc^^

definitely a must see, great story and animation, even though it was made in the 80s!

Never got into it. I donā€™t even know the names.

Again, itā€™s never too late^^

  • Old one: AKIRA! ā€¦ (followed by GitS) ā€¦ I also have the manga to Akira (which was also the best manga I ever have read)
  • New one: Jin Roh ā€¦ a fantastic story full of espionge, tragedy and emotion (Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away were also great ones)
  • Old series: Record of Lodoss War (only the first season, the rest was a waste of time) ā€¦ (followed by The Hakkenden)
  • New series: Neon Genesis Evangelion (the new Movies: 1.11, 2.22, 3.33 and soon coming 4.44 :wink: ) ā€¦ (Kodomo no Omocha was also great)

ā€¦ For defining ā€œOldā€ and ā€œNewā€: For me the old ones were of the first gernerations of anime while the new ones are those of the time when anime became a wave rolling over europe (where the style was also getting more modern) ā€¦ I have not seen a single good anime since the first years of this millennium ^^

OH! and how could i forget Avatar?? Awesome show too. I havenā€™t watched Korra yetā€¦has anyone else? Is it any good?

but the real film was so much better!

Iā€™ve seen the start of Korra and it is really good^^ They made a good transition from Aang to Korra and all the new things the world developed are really interesting.

@TheBirne
yea old and new is a wide term^^ Even more so because I assume youā€™re older than me^^

I have seen like half of the first season of NGE but it just didnā€™t get to me. It didnā€™t have the special something to keep my attention. For me there are better Mecha animes out there^^
But you donā€™t like a single anime that came out the last 10 years? 0.o

nope, not even a single one ^^ ā€¦

have you seen an anime/series of macross? ā€¦ I love the old movies but the best of it were the series ā€œMacross 7ā€ and ā€œMacross Plusā€ :wink:

Iā€™ve heard of Macross but never seen it.
I only watch old animes if the storie is really really good^^ The style is not so my thing^^ So Iā€™d say Iā€™m the complete opposite of you xD

Why have i only found this now? damn thing with hiding the offtopic.

sorry im going to have to go a bit indepth i cant just do so few, will add it in pictures, so hope it will be worth a read but if it is too much please just ignore me xD

My favorite anime of all time is prob Sword Art Online

I know alot of people thought it was going to be action packed only so when it turned into romance they got annoyed, i on the other hand loved that part of it, but it all depends on who you are

as other people also mentioned, Log Horizon

is also a really good anime, especially for gamers.

For more serious an anime i have come to love and i think is utterly amazing, is Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso/Your lie in april

<img src=ā€œ/uploads/default/original/2X/6/65ef3db921e99a7a9d59ad5d3282b7674329397c.pngā€ width=ā€œ333ā€

it is a very heart breaking anime with an amazing yet deeply dramatic story.

For love stories i really like Kaicho wa Maid-Sama and Special A

Then 2 animes that have a very well put together story but are relatively unknown is Death parade and Kamisama no memo-chou

Then there are a ton of amazing animes that i cant even begin to mention them all: No game no life, Fairy Tail, Parasyte, Tonari no kaibutsu-kun, and so many many more.

Also i would love sugggestions for good animes directly if anybody have some, im always looking for more animes to use in AMVā€™s

Suggestions would be:

  • Shokugeki no Souma, itā€™s a cooking anime but look for yourself itā€™s really funny^^
  • Eureka 7, is one of my top 10 of all times. Just great.
  • Zero no Tsukaima, very funny.
  • Battle Programmer SHIRASE (BPS for short), to put it simple, thatā€™s how I want to be as a programmer xD
  • the monogatari animes (Nekomonogatari, Nisemonogatari, Bakemonogatari, Tsukimonogatari etc.) , theyā€™re kinda weird but worth every second.
  • Amagami SS, very unique romance anime.
  • Grisaia no Kajitsu and Grisaia no Rakuen, a must see in my eyes
  • Black Lagoon, Aldnoah Zero, Hidan no Aria, Akame ga Kill, Code Geass, there are just so many good animes out there^^

I hope there are some in this list you havenā€™t seen yet^^

i have seen the familliar of zero, the shokugeki i have bookmarked and is definitely going to watch it, i just dont like watching ongoing animes. the monogatari series are so messed up, i tried watching them but i just couldnt. Grisaia i am currently playing the visual novel it was build on so i dont want to watch it to spoil it, Akame ga kill was decent but it felt lacking in some way, but i will take a look at the rest.

just found a list of some of the animeā€™s i really liked and recommended for my friend who just started watching, this list havent been updated in a while though.

Angel beats, Anohana, Ao no exorcist, Baka to the test season 1 and 2, Ben to, Blood lad, Boku ha tomodachi ga sukunai season 1 og 2, Btoom, Bullet Black, campione, Chuunibyou demo koi ga shita, Date a live, Fairytail, freezing, Highschool of the dead, Infinite stratos, Inu X Boku ss, Kaichou wa maid-sama, Kenichi the strongest disciple, Kokoro connect, Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka- Of the dead, MM, Mondaijitachi ga Isekai Kara Kuru Sou Desu yo, Muv Luv, Ookami san, Oreimo season 1 and 2, OreShura, Phi Brain season 1 and 2, Sakurasou no pet na kanojo, Sankarea, Shingeki no kyojin, Special A, Sword art online, Love hina, The world god only knows season 1 and 2, Tonari no kaibutsu-kun, Toradora, The familiar of zero all seasons, Yahari Ore No Seishun Love Come Wa Machigatteiru, Death note, full metal alchemist, clannad, Soul Eater, Hayate no gotoku, He is my master, they are my masters, C3. Medaka box, Deadman wonderland, Asu no Yoichi. Inukami, Ano Natsu de Matteru, kami sama no memo-chou, Aoi Sekai No Chuushin De, Tonagura!, 07-Ghost, R-15, Noucome

Itā€™s fascinating how many similar our taste is xD it reads almost like my watched list^^

this is like 5% - 10% i have watchedā€¦ they are the ones i could remember by heart there are many many more, which is why i am always looking for new things to watch.

Have you seen the anime called ā€˜ā€˜Plastic Memoriesā€™ā€™? it is a really interesting plot setting, i am almost finished with it and i dont regret it, although i have a friend who thinks its bad because there are actual dillemas and feelings involved.
