hrm.. most of my recommendations are probably repeats... oh well,

ANIME,

Ouran High School Host Club --anime, finished/possible 2nd season, --manga, finished (?)
zOMGGG, i watched it all in one sitting... (okay, not really), but it was sooo freaking GOOD. <33 i say you should just watch the anime (even though they say the mangas are more detailed, etc) cause it's still funny and whatnot........... and the guys look hotter in them ^^;; anyways, it's really touching and pstt--- remember, the twins are mine

Shakugan No SHANA --anime, finished --movie, coming soon
i kinda forgot the storyline and w/e... but i remember that it was really cool. X__X;; if you like those anime such has 'the melancholy of haruhi suzumiya' and etc, then you should watch it =) and i personally liked it cause for ONCE the girl doesn't need to be, uh, "saved"...? X___X;; anyways, there's going to be a movie coming out..... yipeeee!

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya --anime, on going (?)
It's weird with the chronoligical order and the analogical order... but it's really good and blows your mind. =) ahhh, and the esper's hot. ^^

Fate Stay Night --anime, finished
This one left me really.. sad.. </3 Watch it, watch it! It's all orderly and nice. Lots of fighting and hot guys everywhere. *drool*

Bleach --anime (fillers almost finished), on going --manga, on going
Definitely one of the most popular animes EVER. I say you should just watch the anime instead of the manga stuff since I don't think there's much difference.. and the anime is better i think for this one? anyways... their moves are so stinking cool... xDDD and the characters and the series itself is so twisted and interesting to watch. it's probably one of my favorites after naruto.

MANGA

DN Angel --anime, finished --manga, finished (?)
I only watched the anime, but i think the manga will be better from what i heard. (i'm reading it right now) anyways-- it's reallyyyy good. haha, daisuke niwa is so kawaiii~ it'll take getting used to getting used to everything though... X___X;; but it's really good after you get used to everything and after you start getting into the plot. Anyways, "they" also say that the anime left out wayy too many details... SOOOOOOO--yeah.

Naruto --anime +3 (?) movies, on going --manga, on going
Hrm... MANY people say that the manga is better and that the anime series left out too many things. =___= imo, i don't think the anime is too bad (the songs and voices fit xDD) and the anime pictures are better for the eye (haha, imo again) cause it has nice colors instead of b&w.. but anyway. I only read the recent volumes of Naruto... and yeah, the manga's good too ^__^

MANGA/ANIME

Full Metal Alchemist --anime +1 movie, finished --manga, finished (?)
(Pstt, they have a movie for it) They say it's different from the anime. i dunno, i still have to read it ^^;; Anyways. I liked the anime and whatnot and they say the manga is more.. sad than the anime and not as happy/cheerful. So... I say, if you want a comedy+sad type, watch the anime. and if you want a sad+dark type, read it. ^__^;;

Prince of Tennis --anime +1 movie, finished --manga, on going
I REALLY WANT TO READ THIS. Anyways, the anime is sooo.. LOVEABLE. T__T and Ryoma Echizen is nice and hot. Mysterious. Tough. Yumm~ Oh, they have a movie for this too. ANNDDDDDDD, the songs for the anime are good =) The voices fit the characters nicely and it's really cool. For this one too, I :::heard:::: that they are different? So yeah, just do both =___= Warning: You'll fall in LOVE with the series. Just make sure to finish the first few episodes... T__T then you'll get used to it or w/e. haha

Black Cat --anime, finished --manga, finished
These two are fsho fsho EXTREMEMLY different. I liked the anime better since Train Heartnet looks more hot in it ^////^ *blush, blush* anyways. but since they're so different, i can't really tell which one you should read or watch. anyways, the anime is really cool and interesting. it inspired me to learn how to use a gun x333

Death Note --anime, on going. --manga, finished (?)
People I know who both watched and read it, liked both versions... So i don't think it'll matter much x333 anyways, it's the really cool and interesting type of anime/manga that'll get you hooked... and it's kinda slow imo, but doesn't matter. it's still good and so..... SUSPENSFUL!

walla! finished. the wonderful list of my favorites. ^__^;

props; one.way_ ll like duh.

I need recommendations for short anime series. I just finished watching Kanon (2002) and I just started watching Black Blood Brothers.


How was kanon? like.. how would you rate it out of 10? I'm looking for something funny and not too serious, like azumangah daioh or haruhi suzumiya. and i don't want to watch something that's average or only slightly average.

thanks~~

Anime

Robotech


Robotech was one of the earliest animes shown in America at the time in the 80s and helped many Americans become fans of Japanese animation.

Serial Experiments Lain -Somewhat darker...more adult as it deals with psychological and philosophical themes. It's a series. It might take a couple of viewings to understand this complex thought provoking anime.



Perfect Blue - Psychological thriller. About a pop idol who becomes delusional and traumatized when a stalker begins killing her friends.

Vampire Hunter D - Vampires and such

Candy candy manga is soooo great <33 It's my fav manga of all times.

SE Lain is one of my fav animes. so dark, creepy, lonely, and sad ^^

Here's my list of anime/manga that I really like and think is worth watching/reading:

Anime:
SE Lain
Read or Die
Samurai Champloo
Witch Hunter Robin (pretty dark ^^)

Manga:
Candy Candy
Death Note
Glass Mask
BAttle royale (kiriyama <3)
Monster (dark and addicting manga)
20th century boys is also good.
Eternal Sabbath
MPD Psycho (freaky)
Uzumaki (horror tears.gif )
Detective Conan
Bleach (good but too long so i dropped the series somewhere)

I've read a lot more but havn't found anything that's nearly as good as those stated. Im lookn for more dark, or sad mangas/

Dark anime:
You might be interested in Gantz.. It was too much for me *koff*, I don't know how it ends.
Mushishi and Monster are probably the best dark anime out there recently.
Shingetsutan Tsukihime and Gungrave. I thought these were quite good~!
Like the others, I'd also recommend Serial Experiements Lain. One of the best~!

Shoujo, *thinks hard*.
Kare Kano. Definitely...
X TV <-dark mystery/romance-y..
Crest of the Stars <-Drama/Romance/sci-fi... cool!
Full Moon wo Sagashite <- girl who wants to be a singer... little time left to live... Its pretty great!

red river, glass mask, candy candy...
princess- a korean manhwa, historical settings too.
all of CLAMP series.
All of Fuyumi Soryo's series.. her work seems a little dark too, I LOVE her plots, she's amazing.
