I think you definitely need to get out and watch more anime.

*shrug* For the most part, it's just too slow paced for me to really get into.

Last week: On Dragonball Z!

Goku: I have a hernia! URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

And now!

Goku: RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Next week:

Goku: RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. . .poot. Oh, it was just gas.

Oy, you picked like the worst example of all anime, imo. If that's your main experience with anime, I'm not surprised you don't like it...

I love you!

I love you, too.

Yeah, I know it's the worst. But I picked it because it's the worst. I've seen others, but generally I watch for a while, but can't get into them.

The ones that immediately come to mind that I've watched some of: Outlaw Star, Cowboy Bebop, Berserk, Naruto, Angel Sanctuary, Record of Lodoss War, Magic Knight Rayearth

The one that comes to mind that I watched all of: Macross. . . and it was actually Robotech the first time I watched it. By the same degree, whatever the one that they made into Voltron was. . . GoLion or somesuch.

I have seen the anime and own the the entire manga. I also have the two novels.

Its never really interested me its the one about a companion robot is it?

Speaking of anime, I just finished a series recently where in the opening two episodes, more than half the main characters died. I was like holy crap! But then the next 9 episodes explained how they got to that point, then the last two were back to the present. But seriously, that's a good way to get you interested. Quickly introduce a team of fighters against the supernatural, make you like them and then 10 minutes later start killing them off in cool battles.

Sounds like that Vampire Hunter film, can't quite remember the name of it though.

Cowboy Bebop, the best Anime ever short series
Samurai Champloo by the same makers also good. short series
Van Helsing bloody and old but good. short series
Trigun worth watching. shortish series
All ghost in the shell stand alone complex is great.

Naruto - all of it after a certain point is filler. Shippendun (sp?) is a lot better still suffers from being slow every now and then. loads of episodes

Bleach is good but suffers from slow and filler but also has some really good stuff still happy I've kept up to date with it. loads of episodes

One Piece in the same vein as the above two but with pirates and a bit more kiddy but still ace and great music (plays the tuba music, bum bum bum, bumbum bum bum bum.) loads of episodes.

That would be my list of must watches

Nah, I think you're thinking of something else. Chobits, perhaps. Or many other series.

This Love Hina. Loveable idiot becomes manager of girl's dormatory as he tries to get into college, and fails. A lot.

Ahhh no superpowers or combat and it fails to hit my anime radar.

In my view the two aforementioned conditions are the reason the genre was invented

Well, there's actually a surprising amount of combat. But yes, all the super powers are played for laughs.

And exquise me? Super powers and combat fall a distant second and third behind the actual reason for anime. Giant robots!

Oh... Since Cowboy Bebop was mentioned...

SUNRISE has quality control over the Cowboy Bebop Live Action Movie. They stated that if the movie or the script is not up to the quality they expect, then they will kill the project, so if the movie sucks horribly and it is still released we can all blame SUNRISE for killing their own IP. HOWEVER, I'm willing to bet that even if the movie sucked they still will release it.

I thought cute manga girls was the reason for manga.
