What's yours? Mine is Claymore and Naruto, and I've only just watched a few episodes of Claymore. I find it very intriguing how the anime is dominated by females. Nice change.

EOFF needs a resurgence to it's former glory.
The only anime I ever really enjoyed was the Read Or Die OAV series, though I've never had a chance to watch the subsequent TV series. I've also seen one episode of Bobobo-bo bo-bobo and truth be told, I wanna see more!
Beyond that, anime is something I can never really get into: to say that the word "anime" is short for the word "animated" transliterated into Japanese, there's an awful lot of simplistic tweening, cheap camera pans and general laziness in the animation going on, which puts me off. I'd call that a "moshun touiin" or a "moshuto" (motion tween) rather than an anime.
So many! It's like asking about your favorite movie or book. Way too many to chose just one.
Try Wolf's Rain
Serial Experiments Lain
InuYasha =]

Too big. <-- yeah i heard that one before
Mine would probably be Wolf's Rain. The animation is quite good and at times even breathtaking. The characters are appealing and have mysteries of their own which are slowly revealed as the story progresses. I like the way how the world isn't black & white but grey instead: the heroes do some gruesome things while many of the villains' actions can be ambigious (I felt particularly sorry for Darcia because of his tragic story). It's nice how love stories and other subplots don't happen all at once but take time to develop, and it's interesting how certain characters are connected.
The storyline is quite coherent and interesting, and the only bad thing I have to say about it is the fact that it progressed too quickly in the final episodes. If they had made just a few more episodes, the pacing would've been perfect and the ending wouldn't have been too rushed. Still, the final episodes are truly mindblowing in the way the events unfold, and I really liked the cleverly ambigious ending which had ties to a certain scene in a nice way. The music by Yoko Kanno is among her best with truly uplifting as well as tragic melodies, and there are some really beautiful songs, including the opening and ending themes.
How I met your mother, Donald Duck's parents style! Love at first temper tantrum!

There's another "fav anime" every week... MMM
As stated in every other thread of the same topic, Loveless and Noein.
Bleach and FLCL (fooly cooly!!) Those anime are like the best.
I'm with Renmiri, there are way too many to list for me.
For something funny watch Irresponsible Captain Tylor or Tenchi Muyo! OVA
For something artistic watch Haibane Renmei or Last Exile
For something action packed watch Big O or GunGrave
For something romantic watch Kare Kano or Voices of a Distant Star
and for something just overall awsome, watch Cowboy Bebop
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
My favourite animes at the moment would have to be Nadesico and Stand Alone Complex (1st and 2nd gig), however there is a small list of classics every anime fan should own:
* Evangelion
* Cowboy Bebop
* Outlaw Star
* Chobits
* Excel Saga
I don't know why, that just seems to be the rule.
Naruto
Don't watch the TV series, it's 20 episodes of padding, then 5 episodes of actual story, plus they've ruined some of the original characters
I've only seen one episode so far and I have to admit, it's one good mindsmurf so far
FURI KURI FTW!
And Last Exile = love
