Default Anime enthuiasts?

I was wondering if there was anyone else on here that loves anime! I used to watch it all the time and want to find some new series to watch! I like animes like Kimi ni todoke, Honey and Clover, Nodame Cantabile, Haibani Renmei, Mushishi, Ghost Hunt, Ayatsuri Sakon the Puppet Master....

I love anime!

Or well...I did. I haven't watched a new series in a while. I fell behind in grad school. My little brother recently got into anime and recommended a bunch of series on netflix for me.

My favorites are Fullmetal Alchemist, Trigun and Ranma˝.

I just rewatched Trigun a couple weeks ago. I forgot how much I liked that show. Have you seen Baccano?

Nope! I haven't heard of that one I'll have to look it up.

Trigun's awesome, isn't it? I'm not really sure what exactly I love about that show, but I can always go back and rewatch it again and again. I have fond memories of sneaking into the basement when I was 15 to watch it on adult swim.

I used to be a pretty big anime/manga fan back in middle school & through high school (that's starting 15-16 years ago).

I do still catch a few shows online every once in a while. If you're looking for recent, Gosick is one of the better new ones I've seen.

My all-time favorite will always be Sailor Moon, though. I don't even regret that time I cosplayed as Sailor Jupiter. Fond memories. Even if I completely stopped watching anime or reading manga altogether, I will always love that show.

ooo cosplay! That is one of my weight loss motivators

I've cosplayed as Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist, Milly from Trigun, Inuyasha from...Inuyasha, A random Pokémon Trainer, A Shinigami from Bleach, Link from Zelda..and a couple more I probably can't remember. I used to go to conventions quite a bit.

I have a list of cosplays I want to do once I hit goal.

I used to really love anime. It has to be in Japanese though with English subtitles. I hate, hate, hate dubbing.

My favorites are:
Sailor Moon (all of them)
Fuushigi Yuugi
Fruits Basket
Ah, My Goddess!
Chobits
Vampire Princess Miyu
Ouran High School Host Club
Ayashi no Ceres

I've never cosplayed but I do like EGL! I just bought a couple Fruits Basket dvd and I own Ouran too! I must watch the Fuushigi Yuugi. My friend told me it was a good series. I'm not a fan of dubbing either unless I saw the show dubbed when I was younger.

I watch Death Note every day, even though I've already seen it. I love the deep vibe of it. My all time favorites are Ah! My Goddess, Death Note, Spiral, and FLCL. Has anyone here seen FLCL?

I have seen FLCL! I just bought Spiral but haven't watched it yet. I'm now excited to watch. I like the live action Death Note. Have you seen that? I need to watch the anime movie of Death Note.

I used to be much more into anime than I am now, but I still go to an occasional con and it's something my boyfriend and I like to watch. Sailor Moon is my favorite, but when I was younger I was really into InuYasha. I've seen a lot of stuff from FLCL, Death Note, Yu Yu Hakusho, some Gundam & mecha series... kind of all over. Yuu Watase and Ai Yazawa are two of my favorite manga/anime authors in particular.

Ok that sounded super random but I'm just in an all over the place state of mind right now.

So who had to watch FLCL multiple times to understand it? *raises hand*

Raises hand* I'm not even sure I still understand it and apparently the anime series is different from the manga...

OOOoo I own some Yu yu hakusho!!! I'm not a big fan of Sailor Moon I used to be when I was younger but then all the new stuff came out and I stopped watching it. Maybe I will try looking at it again.

I've never read the FLCL manga. I'll have to try that

I really miss Sailor Moon. I started watching it again a few years ago but didn't finish. That's another one I have fond memories of as a child

Ai Yazawa is Nana, right? Oh my gosh I LOVE Nana. Such a great manga series. I also read the first 24 AhMGs and all the petshop of horrors.
