Post Your Favorite Anime(s)!

[pearljammer]

I'm new to most series, but have seen my fair share of movies (namely Studio Ghibli ones).

Full Metal Alchemist - Loved everything about this series. The characters, the story, everything. Very touching and remains one of my favourite tales.

Scrapped Princess - While it pales in comparison to FMA, I thoroughly enjoyed this. The characters were interesting while the plot was lacking somewhat, in my opinion. Would definitely recommend

Rurouni Kenshin - Just started a few months back, stopped watching and am now getting back into it. Enjoying it quite a bit so far.

FLCL - Watched the first two episodes. Really did not like it at all. The characters were certainly wacky, but they were very uninteresting.

Movies:

My favourite has to be Howl's Moving Castle. I also thoroughly enjoyed:
Mononoke Hime
Spirited Away
Laputa - Castle in the Sky
Whisper of the Heart - very warming story that I think is often unfairly overlooked
Akira - My first anime movie, has haunted me (in a good way) for years
Porco Rosso

I thought Kiki's Delivery Service was charming, but it lacked the appeal that is common in most Studio Ghibli movies.

I also thought Metropolis was terrible. Hated it so very, very much. Perhaps I a exaggerating, but I didn't really enjoy it.

I'm open to any suggestions and am currently finishing Samurai X and starting Elfen Lied
