This thread is really cool, and has gotten interested in watching a lot of anime that I normally wouldn't. Since the majority of the anime I've previously watched has been all action oriented (Bebop, Champloo, Trigun... etc), I'm looking through the recomendations thread to try a bunch of new stuff. So right now I'm watching School Days, Bleach, and One Piece, but I wanna watch some of the stuff you guys are talking about right now so I don't feel left out. Going to watch Baccano soon, maybe try Saki and some other stuff.
So in short, thanks anime thread!
hahahaha what
You are making the wrong choices, friend. Or maybe you're not adept enough at picking who not to listen to.
Look, go watch Darker than Black, Baccano, and Ouran High School Host Club. Those 3 will do you well.
Will do. I'm only halfway through the first episode so its not like I wasted much time on it.

No, go ahead and watch it, but be sure to give everyone an episode-by-episode reaction message.

My dear, we don't want to break the new ones. We need to keep them around a little first so they don't run off and disappear after School Days.
Whaaaat. Thanks for ruining Haruhi forever for me.
Now I know more stuff happens later on.
Spoilers should be illegal since you're pretty much telling me what's going to happen so no need to watch/read/buy the series and thus the company loses money.
Okay. No one cares.

I finished the first episode. The first half was alright, some weird and kinda awkward fanservice, and an almost-rape scene made it weird but I could still watch it. Then the fanservice dial gets turned to 11 while every girl in school falls over the insensitive, unlikeable prick of a protaganist. Also I got some weird lesbian overtones that I wasn't quite expecting. And now I'll stop talking about it forever.

Well. Finished the first episode [tiny]of Haruhi[/tiny]. It's not bad. The premise works. At least it gives me a reason to watch it over most of the school hyjinx shows out there.

Yeah, she is. A lot of people find the moeblob thing as an abomination to God, though...

The School Days recommendation is in there kind of as a joke. I mean, Pika meant it as a real recommendation, but it's really on the list as an in-joke. Probably should have left it out since School Days always causes all kinds of complaining.
Recent stuff I'd suggest if you're looking to branch out from the old classics:
Eden of the East
Spice and Wolf
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0
Taishou Yakyuu Musume - I'd recommend this over Saki as a "girls form a club" type show
Bakemonogatari

Yeah I could tell after the first episode. At least now I get the joke, although I could have gone with a less painful initiation. Thanks for the recommendations, will definitely keep watching.

I just feel sorry for her most of the time.
I tend to find it that too, most of the time. I have a few exceptions. She seems to be one, mostly because of the shit she's going to have to go through.
Mikuru's cute but her incompetence in everything ever makes me hate her instead of like her.
As for Blacksmith 3...
I try to cut people like Cecily slack in that situation - killing someone that looks human ain't easy the first time. I'll forgive the minor annoyance since we got to see some minor characters who I completely expected to die helplessly (such as the knight captain) kicking serious ass and not taking shit.
Plus, with the ultimate weapon being a rapier, maybe everyone (both in the show and out of it) can stop talking about KATANAHs all the damn time.

You mean the first broadcast episode? As in the school movie?
After you're done with the first season, watch it again. Trust me.
Episode 1. As in the first one. Where they form the club. Same episode as the first episode in Chronological order. I'm going to watch it chronologically. I'll consider watching it via broadcast order afterwards.
I don't mind Mikuru as a character. It's her godawful voice. No one talks like that in real life. Rie Kugimiya for instance at least tries to talk in a natural tone, Mikuru's voice acting is so fake it's actually painful.

The first series deviated wildly from the manga, because the manga was nowhere near done at the time (it's only now wrapping up, years later). Manga fans tend to hate the original anime for this reason. Other people think it's fine as it is.
A remake is currently airing, which redid the entire series, following the manga this time.
I never even bothered with the movie, despite liking the original anime series.
Well with this thread about to die, I think it's time I made a recommendations so I can be a cool kid like everyone else. Either that, or complete my fall to the weeaboo side.
Action: Samurai Champloo, Sword of the Stranger
Immortal Gangsters: Baccano!
Sports/Comedy: Cross Game
Sports/Action: Hajime no Ippo

Ghibli: Princess Mononoke
Comedy: Minami-ke (first series)
BOO HOO: The Girl Who Leapt Through Time
So good it makes up for all the ungodly tripe: Azumanga Daioh
it was mostly about kicking their viewers in the nuts. Any money they saved is secondary. I don't think they got anywhere near completing the source materia.

Broadcast order avoids that by shuffling things around.
FIIIINE. That's why I held out so long on watching this! Aimless random adventures tend to not be my thing! But I'll give it a chance.
As long as it's not Seinfeld-level pointless, ala Lucky Star, I'll give something a shot.
Question is what to watch next? FMA worth the 12 discs and movie to spend the time on, or should I move into something newer?
Wii U - 'Nocero'

Good choice, it sucked.
Wrath v Gluttony fight was beautifully animated and worth watching for that alone.
Page- your recs are in.
Are you kidding?
I couldn't stop watching it. It is the single best episode.
Just watch it.
That one episode where they went to the theme park in the middle of the bay? Yeah, terrible.
I'll not touch how that metaplot is fairly nonsensical and comes out of practically nowhere.
