Favorite Anime?
For any anime fans out there like myself, what is your all time favorite series? If you can't decide, what's at least your top 5?
For me, Hunter x Hunter is the best. The story and characters are amazing and the designs are great. It starts slow at first, but by the 4th episode, it gets really good. It also gets darker and darker as the series progresses, which I love.
I also enjoyed Dragon Ball Z, Death Note, Soul Eater, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (that's my 2nd favorite), and My Hero Academia.

As a kid I use to watch Pokemon (The First Series Mostly), Yugioh (The First Series with Yugi), Code Lyoko, Zoids (Both are French but idc. Anime is Anime). I watched a little bit of Yu Yu Hakusho back in the day, but I never finished it. Dragon Ball Z is my all-time Favorite. I've been watching Dragon Ball SUPER more recently.
Attack on Titan, Monster, When They Cry, Death Note, Hellsing Ultimate, Stein's Gate, The first half of Deadman Wonderland, and SAO Abridged (I know it's an abridged series, but it's too fucking good to overlook. It's everything the original SAO should've been.)
Not a huge list. I'm more into anime films than I am shows.
These are based off rewatchability, factored into my choices are the manga/light novels, I own the majority or waiting for print after reading online.

Top Movies (No Order):
Either Oregairu or Owari no Seraph.
Oregairu as whole series or just Season 1?
I absolutely love it btw.
The big 3 that I think are fantastic
Ghost In the Shell SAC
Death Parade
My Hero Academia
I'd say as a whole, as you can see it's so nearly in my top group. Hikigaya Hachiman is incredibly relatable for me.
Also the studio change gave the show a whole new feel. (No pun intended)
Best dubs: (In my opinion, these surpass the original) Especially Bebop, seeing as how it was cancelled halfway through airing.
Black Lagoon
Cowboy Bebop
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood
Code Geass
Death Note
I grew up watching Dragon Ball Z. I remember the game, Budokai 2 for PS2, is what really got me into it.
I haven't been able to watch the recent episodes of Super yet.
Hellsing Ultimate is underrated, imo. Have you seen the abridged version of it?
He is a very unique character, that's for sure, and his way of thinking too. I really love the show so much because all (main; 4) characters are well-written.
Both, but I loved season 2 the most, honestly. Hell, I even cried like 3 times while watching it.
My friend has renamed me to Hachiman on facebook, so there's that aha
Recently started some of the manga, may even get the LN, but no time on top of what I'm doing
Hmm, based on those, I'd recommend Hyouka. I havent seen it, but I plan too (soon actually). Seems very similar.
I've havent watched a lot of anime, mainly because ive been obsessed with naruto at this point (yep still) but the few that ive watched i say they good.
Naruto- its my personal favorite. its not the best, has a lot of flaws and its not the best written one, but it's just my personal favorite. im kinda planning to do a full review along with a discussion and some other shit, but im not to sure because it could become blog like fucking and idk if anyone is that into this anime or really feel like typing that much. also im not 100 on what im writing, as in not knowing if my "facts" are on track.
Death note: this is the best anime ive seen. not my favorite but its pretty good. very well written and its very suspenseful, though i hated how it ended. shit probably should've been shorter as at times i felt a bit forced to watch, though it was still good, and i still feel like N and mello were dog shit characters and just a bullshit replacement for L. after L's death the show almost went to shit.
Dragon Ball/Z: okay i havent watched this recently so i really dont have like much insight on it, i really cant say much. its mostly based on nostalgia. im a bit afraid of watching it now (and honestly a bit lazy) and being afraid of it being shit.
*Tonari no Kaibutsu- kun: well its not a finished anime as there's only 13 episodes, but its really good imo. the rest of the story its on the manga and that one very good too, though the ending it's shit imo. still love it. its a shojo for those who like watching/reading that kind of stuff.
*Your Name: very good movie, kinda surprise that it went how it went but its very fun.
shit that i want to watch:
Tokyo Ghoul is a personal favourite, season 2 differs from the manga. But I still love it, I look at the messages and situations it gives. Psychological factors etc. And decisions made by characters. There is no good or bad side, who's the hero? There isn't one. And an in depth world, that feels very believable.
If you watch Cowboy Bebop, watch the dub, it's so much better. I regard it as the greatest dub.

One Piece. I love most of the characters in the series and I like how everything ties together in the story, like something that happened very early on in the series is still relevant in later episodes. Also, I think OP has the perfect balance between humour and drama, something that most anime fail to achieve, let alone Shonens. With all it's goofyness, OP still manages to have a very deep and emotional story.
All in all, it's my favourite anime ever (though I still love many others, like Death Note, Naruto, Bleach, Another, with DBZ being my childhood favourite)
Cory In The House.
Hahaha, looks like I am talking to the 8man.
I am too lazy to read manga. I had started reading Osayama Punpun (kinda forgot the name) but I just stopped.
Same!! Only anime (and other media) that made me cry can make it to my top lol.
Haha, I have already seen it. Thanks either way.
I actually thought it was pretty boring since I am no big fan of SoL anime. I am always waiting for some plot twist or something lol.
Of course.
CROSS ANGE
RIN: DOUGHTERS OF MNEMOUSONE
HARMONY
CODE GEASS
Mmmm Tokyo Ghoul sound interesting.
yeah ive heard that the dub version for cowboy is the best, i mean i watch anime dub all the time ( yes i am that person Kappa) so i guess that works out for me.
Yugioh GX
Goddamn I liked every minute of it.
