HAHA I WATCH ON WEBSITES

Although the subs are sketchy at times, I am happy soul.

[ToonyMan]

The moment I learned that the English VA for Ed was the same guy that did Mao in Disgaea 3 I had to watch the dub.

[Acanthus117]

Meh, I'm not a fan of dubs, or at least when I've watched half the show in subs.

[ToonyMan]

The dub is of high quality, it's easier to watch with others as well...

[Acanthus117]

Nah, I just find the change too distracting to focus on the show... I watched an episode, and I disliked Ed's voice. No offense.

Also, have you noticed that the majority of the people in the show are Iron Woobies?

[ToonyMan]

Does Greed count as an Iron Woobie?  Because he most certainly qualifies.

[Acanthus117]

Yeah I guess so.

Man, the Amestrians are badass.

Did that horrible, annoying Nel just

eat up his Cero and throw up at him?

Maybe she isn't as bad as I thought...

Hi!

for Higurashi:

Just finished the answer arc for the second arc, and all I can say is "Wow."

Spoiler: "Episode 21" (click to show/hide)

But if Mion died when she fell into the well, and Shion actually did wind up falling out of the hospital... then who came into Keiichi's hospital room? 

I told you that series was awesome (and I hope you now understand why I consider the nail ripping scene high art).

I can also recommend the games. While the anime sticks extremely closely to the original games, there are many, many more details and side narrations you will find in the games. Whether you find that enlightening or confusing is another matter, though (^_^;;

Wait, Nel can

spit on people with massive amounts of drool to heal them?

I change my mind. She is flipping awesome.

Most definately.

Partly because many of them are bound to sins that prevent happiness.

[Acanthus117]

Yeah, they're blessed with suck, so to speak.

[Sinistar]

Hrmmh, I watched the original FMA (2003-2004) but was highly disappointed.
I did not read manga or novel however, so maybe that was the reason. And did not even decide to start with FMA:B yet so maybe if I do I'll get a better opinion about this series.

Fantasy, something with magic and awesomeness.

I don't really like Sci-Fi stuff, unless it is made of win (Gurren Lagann).

A bit old post, but care to hear my suggestion for good Sci-Fi?

PlanetES:
Extraordinary. More of a drama, rarely a comedy but with great characters and superb storyline that just gets better and better until the end...Quite touching and intelligent also. Just glanced once over manga and it seemed story is even deeper so I'll definitely get to it some time.

Mobile Suit Gundam:
I am currently specializing in Gundam universe so I must add this.
Do not let this giant-mecha anime fool you - it is not your ordinary sunday-morning kids show. Sure, it's a bit old in terms of animation. Sure, Gundam itself is piloted by a kid. But damn was I surprised. The way how serious this anime gets and the way it handles morality of war...Not to mention action which is far from "AMCHARGINMAHLAZZOOOOR!!" but indeed quite tactical and military-like. So all-in-all it comes to no surprise why it was (and still) regarded as simply groundbreaking when it first came out.
Just do not watch any later series, at least not before this one...they are just...not so good (except 2 OVAs).

Ginga Eiyū Densetsu aka Legend of the Galactic Heroes:
...Well, it's epic.
No, scram that.
It's beyond epic.
110 eps spawning epicness of large-scale military conflict, political scheming, ambition, treachery, corruption, cunning war strategies, simple acts of bravery and honour.
Just watch it and let your jaw drops.

The Super Dimension Fortress Macross:
The original Macross. I like it. Good action, interesting characters, enjoyable soundtrack, transforming robots and some neat ideas/twists. Last 10 or so eps kinnda disappointed me, but the rest was very enjoyable.
I did heard however that the American adaptation, "Robotech", pretty much massacrated whole story, characters etc. And I do not like "Macross: Do You Remember Love?" movie neither later series "Macross 7", but I did not finnish watching that one yet.

I could find more, but this is all I can remember for now.
And of course, "win" is very subjective here, I just listed what I like and think it's more or less good anime.

I did a double-take when I read that Raspberyl is Lust.
