Yes, I know that anime lately sucks a lot, but it used to be a great medium.

And the last decent/great top favorite anime thread is from Neolore, and that is almost 3 years old. So lets do it again...

These can be ordered or not ordered if you want to.

Now for me:

1.Rurouni kenshin reminiscence
2.Full metal alchemist
3.Cowboy bebop
4.Hajime no ippo
5.Rahxephon
6.Berserk
7.Guren lagan
8.Monster
9.Last exile
10.Gankutsuou

Oh no, this is the games section of NeoGAF. You appear to have mistakenly posted your enquiry in the wrong section of the site. This is unfortunate.
 
Damn, wrong section, this thread has failed already. But I thought almost every gamer likes anime (or they used to), so lets answer.
 
That Zelda cartoon: "Well excuuuse me, princess!"

I'm not a serious anime watcher, but Cowboy Bebop is bloody amazing. So is FMA.

I dislike Anime

If you mean anime 2006-till now, I agree completely with you, but dont forget that anime has also treasures (like videogame has treasures like zelda ocarina of time, deus ex, ...). Cowboy bebop for example
 
Knew this was a Ganondorfo thread before I even looked at who the OP was. :lol

Also

Pretty broad generalization there.
 
Movies and tv series all mixed up in this bitch:

Rurouni Kenshin
Akira
Ghost in the Shell
Saint Seiya
Lupin III
Castle of Cagliostro
Cowboy Bebop
Dragonball (the original series)
Spirited Away
Evangelion

I haven't watched a new series in over a decade, and thank god for that. :P
 
Hikaru no Go
Monster
Berserk
Now and then, here and there
Mushishi
Planetes
Grave of the Fireflies
Ghost in the Shell: 2nd gig
Card Captor Sakura
Banner of the Stars
 
1. Hokuto No Ken
2. Berserk (my actual #1)
3. Cowboy Bebop
4. Claymore (maybe)
5. I don't really like/watch anime/manga.

Sometimes I think I only like Hokuto No Ken in an ironic sort of way, though Berserk's anime and manga are shining beacons compared to anything else I've seen.
 
I don't watch anime that often, but I have few favorites:

Series:

1. Cowboy Bebop
2. Monster
3. Berserk (Thanks, K.Sabot. I saw your post and was like "fuck yeah". Hate that they didn't finish it though.)
4. Hajime no Ippo
5. Death Note
6. Full Metal Alchemist


Movies:

1. Any Ghibli that isn't Pom Poko, Tonari no Yamada-kun or Neko no ongaeshi.
2. Lupin III (entertaining)
3. Akira (classic)
4. Rurouni Kenshin OVA's (very beautiful movies. Series? not so much...)

Uuuhm, what else? Dunno, as I said, I don't watch anime that often, so I tend to forget. Might get back to ya' on it.
 
In no order

Cowboy Bebop
Akira
Berserk
Macross Plus
Ninja Scroll
GTO
Eva
Dirty Pair Project Eden
Bubblegum Crisis
Ghost in the Shell

and yup DBZ!
 
Super Monkey Butt Shield Force Gekco Detectives

Okay seriously I think I have to go with the Japanese version of Cardcaptor Sakura. Its like the only thing I found that can be so charming, sugary, warm, funny and fuzzy and not be typically annoying about it. No blood, mature bad ass characters so I dont think gaf could handle it.

Enjoyed:
Vampire Princess Miyu OVA
Death Note
Eureka Seven
Magic Knight Ray Earth
Twelve Kingdoms
 
Not in order:

Saber Marionette J
Fortune Quest
Spirited Away
Nausicaa
Great Teacher Onizuka
Golden Boy
Trigun
Dragonball Z
Evangelion
Record of Lodoss War

This may not be very precise since there are too many Animes to make a Top 10 lol
 
Series only:
1. Haibane Renmei
2. Higarushi no naku koro ni
3. Serial Experiments: Lain
4. ARIA
5. Azumanga Daioh
6. Spice and Wolf
7. Black Lagoon
8. Rozen Maiden
9. Kanon (2006)
10. Magical girl Lyrical Nanoha

fuck the haters, new gen anime rocks.
 
In no particular order...

Cowboy bebop
Rurouni kenshin OVAs
GTO
Gankutsuou
Berserk
Record of Lodoss War
Hellsing
G Gundam
Gun Grave
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust

Edit: I finished off my list after thinking about it some more.
 
1.) SDF Macross
2.) Evangelion
3.) Macross Plus
4.) Jin Roh
5.) Cowboy Bebop
6.) Mobile Suit Gundam

.... can't really choose 10, most others I would consider derivative, crap, or I just can't stand anymore. Lot of stuff I loved in the past I just can't enjoy anymore, the ones I listed are the only ones I still find to be true classics that I don't think I could ever not love.
 
oh well...

1. Kimagure Orange Road
2. Honey & Clover
3. Zeta Gundam
4. Maison Ikkoku
Dirty Pair
Utena
Haibane
Bubblegum Crisis OAV
Urusei Yatsura
Project A-ko
Saber Marionette J
the Makoto Shinkai stuff
*shrug*
 
Don't really care about anime that much, especially when most of the shonen stuff (that I'm interested in) are based on manga and the manga originals are faster-paced, more coherent than their anime counterparts.

But I've recently seen a lot of Ghibli films and found them to be really nice. Also, 5 Centimeters Per Second by Makoto Shinkai is a visual feast.
 
Hrm no order and I can't think of ten just now, this'll have to do:

Death Note
Gurren Lagann
Ouran High School Host Club
Dragon Ball Z
.hack//SIGN
Zoids: Chaotic Centuary/Guardian Force
FLCL
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG
Fullmetal Alchemist
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (so far)

I also enjoyed Rurouni Kenshin (have to rewatch to see if it'd be on this list) and Gundam 00 (despite the haters.) Haven't gone out of my way to see all the cult classics, yet.
 
Anything by Satoshi Kon
Akira
Jin-Roh
Cowboy Bebop
Future Boy Conan
Grendizer
GITS: Solid State Society
Planetes
Berserk
Wings of Honneamise
 
1) Neon Genesis Evangelion and End of Evangelion
2) Cowboy Bebop
3) Ghost in the Shell SAC and 2nd GIG
4) FLCL
5) Gunbuster and Diebuster
6) Legend of the Galactic Heroes
7) Monster
8) Kino's Journey
9) Dennō Coil
10) Kaiba
 
I don't feel I have enough experience with anime (as much as I love the good stuff) to make a meaningful "top ten" list, but some series I absolutely adore are:

- Berserk (the manga is pretty mind-blowing so far, too)
- Cowboy Bebop
- Samurai Champloo
- Azumanga Daioh
- Record of Lodoss War (I PASSED UP A $20 "like new" copy of the no-longer-in-print Collector's Edition DVD set UUUUURRRRGGGGGGGG)
- The Tower of Druaga (all Record of Lodoss War fans: watch this)
- Darker than Black
- Gurren Lagann
- FLCL

And of course all the Miyazaki movies.

I saw a little bit of Hakaba no Kitaro fan-subbed and really liked it. I also have a healthy respect for the UC universe Gundam stuff. (The rest can die in a fire.)

Also, action fans: watch Sword of the Stranger.
 
Not seen that much but I really enjoyed the following:

Spirited Away
Porco Rosso
Nausicaa
Akira
Patlabor 2 (1 was a bit meh)
Ninja fucking Scroll
Ghost in the Shell
Perfect Blue

So basicly a generic list of some of the most popular stuff. Got Jin-Roh to watch and thinking about trying the Cowboy Bebop series as everyone seems to like it.
 
Not in any order of importance or favoritism

One Piece
Outlaw Star
Cowboy Bebop
Evangelion
Ghost in the Shell
Dragon Ball
Yu Yu Hakusho
Tenchi Muyo

I don't think I can even get 10... As you can see I am from the toonami generation :lol :lol :lol
 
10
9
8 The rest is not worth being in my top. It would be just filling a top with shit. No reason to do that.

7 Utena, for some reason...
6 Death Note for the music, even if the manga is better.
5 Samourai Shamploo. Overall is great and it has it's moments
4. Neon Genesis Evangelion. Nuff said
3 Gurren Lagaan for epic awesomness and crazy ass scale action.
2 Cowboy Bebop for absolut perfection
1 FLCL, well, if you saw this, you know why.

Elfen Lied

  2. FLCL
  3. Trigun
