For new stuff I recommend D.Gray-Man, Bleach and Code Geass. You're doing all right running through the classics. Try Cowboy Bebop the Series and Ghost in the Shell (series + movies = huge content).
Kino no tabi is also very interesting (finished watching 1 week ago)
If you want tips on underground/less know animes just let me know!

I try to as much as I can. I want to get R2 of Code Geass in english sometime.

It (being the first 2 volumes of R2) is coming out around 08/08/09 in the US if Amazon.com is correct. There are a few other release dates depending on where I looked but no later than August.

Thanks. This is great, I'll have a look into Kino no Tabi and D.Gray-Man. I've seen the Ghost In The Shell films by Oshii, so I've been thinking about watching the TV Series' lately.

I'd 2nd that Ghost in the Shell S.A.C. recommendation. Here are my thoughts: it doesn't really matter if you see S1 or S2 first. (I saw S2 first, lol.) I think that S1 had better stand-alone episodes and S2 had a better central plot. However, if you like great voice-acting, go for the main english dub and ignore the movie edits of the seasons (subtitled Laughing Man and Individual Eleven respectively, both changed the cast)

YES! The 3rd movie is subtitled Solid State Society and takes place 3 years after S2. I DEFINATELY recommend it if you enjoy the series (they managed to improve the animation even more somehow) and also recommend you save it for last.

Good call Objection_Blaster!
It's just that I watch animes in japanese, with english or portuguese subs, so I can't really comment on english dubs ^^"

No problem. I've become somewhat knowledgable on quality anime after buying a shelf or so worth of it in the last year or two. I love recommedning my favs to people, so don't hesitate to ask me! I wish there was a site similar to NL or Backloggery.com for anime...

I watch too much but at the same time too little anime compared to some of my friends. Just about anything I'd seen on Cartoon Network and Adult Swim I've liked, Dragon Ball, Dragonball Z, Gundam Wing etc. etc. But I am more so into Miyazaki films now and look forward to Ponyo. If we had to talk about favorite series' Great Teacher Onizuka, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Outlaw Star, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo (though I hate the ending), Initial D, Trigun, Rurouni Kenshin eh like I said it just goes on.

EDIT: Forgot to say this I agree the Naruto manga is better than the anime.

Wow, I agreed with a large portion of this. Go 'Ponyo'! (Coming soon to US theatres!!)

@Objection_Blaster
i looked at the first post you said you like Code Geass season 1 y not season 2?
My favorite anime of all time would have to be Code Geass best plot ever alot of plot twists that kelpt u guessing but as you watch season 2 you know whats going to happen in the end but i recommend this anime to anyone that liked Death Note they have similar styles

Objection

@battledevil789- At that point, I had not yet seen R2, so I was writing "(season 1)" to indicate I hadn't gotten farther than that. I have since seen all of R2 and enjoyed it tremendously.

Anyone watch Cromartie Highschool? That anime is awesome! And the english dub is very good too!
I think you can watch the whole series on youtube. I really recommend it!

I hear its amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on hari-kiri rock!!! I NEED SCISSORS!!! 61!!!

Ever seen Inuyasha? I love dog half demons!!! I also love Ranma 1/2 where the dude turns into a woman when in cold water. It makes me wonder what would happen if in girl form he got pregnant and then changed back to a dude.... That'd be painful labor. Owch!!!

I just got back from NatsuCon, where I bought Gantz Season 1 (Ep 1-13.) A very messed up show but I really like it so far especially the dark social commentary and the way it goes into the character's true thoughts.

Glad to see another beloved Inuyasha fan!

Because for once I thought I was going to say that there's no one on stupid NintendoLife that are Inuyasha fans; makes me sad that not all you enjoy it!

And yes you all heard me before; I ONLY enjoy the CLASSIC's!

Also I've been enjoying my Inuyasha Season 1 & Season 2 DVD which I ordered from Amazon.com; along with my Inuyasha poster I also ordered & got!

I even got DBZ Season 2 & 3 along with my Season 1 DVD; & I'm enjoying them as well!

My friend loves anime and is obsessed with Naruto, Code Geass, and Host club. He was so sad at the end of Geass, he almost punched me.
