So, I'm sure msot of us here have watched some form of anime or another, whether it was renting Akira fifteen years ago, Dragon Ball Z when it was just some "weird cartoon", or endless reruns of Inuyasha on Cartoon Network. There's a lot out there, for better or worse.
What sort of non-network anime do you guys watch? By non-network, I mean anime that isn't/wasn't on cable TV, like Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Inuyasha, Dragon Ball Z, or Pokemon. |

May as well throw in some of my personal choices-
Older, complete series- Saber Marionette (J, J to X, Again, and R, all of them.), Azumanga Daioh, Ashita no Joe, Lupin III (A handful of episodes from one season on late night CN, but I'll bend that rule because I'm talking about the entire series and the full length movies to boot.), Hellsing Current- Rozen Maiden. Okay, I don't get fanboyish over much anime, most of it is take or leave. Rozen Maiden is an exception. It is an undeniably awesome series that's leaving me desperately wanting more and more. |

Well, I was referring mostly to those of us stuck outside Japan.
I mean... in Japan, just about all of it goes through the TV rotation, even if it's at a 2 am timeslot. That, and we're currently in a lull, waiting on third season, and more manga. Phase 37 finally came out though. |

One that I always thought was a good anime is Case Closed (Detective Conan) I know its kinda kiddy looking but I like the mystery aspect of things and the logic of solving each murder. If you want a real crazy anime watch Elfen Lied. That one is extremely dramatic with the balance of evil and innocense. Lastly, Gilgamesh is one that will mess with your mind. The story builds you up for 25 episodes until the cataclismic ending. Highly recommend all three of these (although Case Closed has about 400+ episodes, hey there's a reason it is the most successful anime along with 11 movies) |

Dragonball Z Budokai games are about the extent of my anime viewing...man those are some good fighting games.

| There's something kinda sad about the way that things have come to be, desensitized to everything, what became of subtlety? |
