Manga/Anime Thread

I guess this can be treated as a manga/anime general discussion thread, though I'm also looking for manga/anime recommendations. My French host family is really into anime o.O so I'll be starting Wakfu soon.

What are your favorites? Feel free to talk about anything related.

Outlaw star, Trigun, and cowboy bebop are probly the best of all time. I also highly recommend fooly cooly, ruroni kenshin, baccano, tengen toppa gurren lagann, and gungrave. These are all animes that I guess I'd say have a more "western" feel, and is less about Extremely over the top sexual themes. But they still got plenty of big boobies.(it's unescapable in anime)

G gundam was pretty good, Desert punk is good (falling closer into the over the top sexual themes) big O is alright somewhat melodramatic, Zoids New Century Zero was one of my top favorites, there are other zoids series but they're pretty lame.

All I can think of atm.

Mega Series: Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, Kenshin, Inuyasha, D. Gray Man. Yes I'm 12 y/o girl.

Underrated: Berserk, Last Exile, Big O.

Gonna be a contrarian douche and not mention CBB or Trigun. They were decent but everyone acts like they're the holy bible of anime. CBB barely had an ending.

Shame they ended the anime after the biggest plot twist.

YuYu Hakusho. That was the other one I couldn't remember that I spent 200 hours of my life watching every episode.

while its not really an anime try Avatar: the Last Airbender/Legend of Kora. (not the movie the tv show.) its actually really well written, despite being on nickelodeon.

All my friends are yelling at me to start One Piece and Trigun, so I guess I'll give those a go pretty soon. Wrote down everything else.

Been a huge fan of Miyazaki for years. What are your favorite Miyazaki films? (Princess Mononoke fan here)

OP starts slow and kinda corny but gets better as it goes. That's probably true for most of the long running series.

The wife loves every Miyazaki film ever made. I liked Howl's and Castle in the sky. Spirited Away is good in a kid's weird nightmare kind of way.

Ah yes, I loved Castle in the Sky. I'm pretty sure Spirited Away was my first Miyazaki film, followed by Howl's Moving Castle. Good stuff.

I just saw Ponyo for the first time recently, didn't do much for me though.
