I think I'm going to start with Full Metal Alchemist. Found it on nr1 in a lot of lists :)


Make sure you watch Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood first.

The original is like a spinoff you can say but Brotherhood is more connected to the manga.

Also watch the movies!

Anyways, finished Shakugan No Shana series - planning to catch up to One Piece and start again a old ongoing anime series: Naruto.

Debating which anime I should watch that already ended though.

ok will do :P

Just saw the first ep of fullmetal alchemist, it was pretty cool :P But i guess I'll first check out brotherhood then :p


Full metal alchemist & FMA Brotherhood are mostly different from each other, with only some similarities.

I would suggest watching the original first, because Brotherhood is much more better. But they are both real good.

No, go and watch the original... first, and watch it until chapter 25-28 arround.. and then jump to brotherhood... then after You finish the EPIC BH you can come back to the first serie and enjoy pretty good spin-off...

 

Or just watch the first and then go for the Brotherhood... is mostly spin-off/fillers But I found it pretty good till the end on the movie...

Lol. I didn't know watching anime was this difficult :P


Yeah, watch the original first.

That way you can later move up to the better quality which is Brotherhood.

But the original is really good, so don't worry.

Hey anime fans.
I need a new series. And I want to give anime a try.

Can you guys recommend me an anime series? :)

Some of my favourites were

 

Clannad

Fate/Zero

Code Geass

Death Note

Persona 4 The Animation 

And if you dont mind looooooong shows with lots of filters then 

 

Naruto

Bleach

Dragonball Z

Add Cowboy Bebop ,Trigun and Outlaw Star.

Blood Plus too.


After watching Dragonball Z you should then watch Dragonball GT.

After watching YuGiOh original you should then watch YuGiOh 5Ds

Bleach & Dragonball Z have fillers in the right kind of way.

Fillers... making watch anime a pain in the ass since... EVER...

Yeah, but I think once the long running animes finish up, I think they're going to properly divide anime into seasons.

I hope so.. short running series of 12 or 24 episodes are better.. yearly can be made into high quality pieces of animation... :)

I just started watching Mirai Nikki. I don't know why it took me so long to finally start it. Watched 8 episodes and so far it's really good. I love the creepiness of Yuno.

Yeah, though, there aren't really too many "new" long running manga.  We'll just have to see how this plays out.

Some great ones for beginners: Death Note, Full Metal Alchemist (and/or Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood), Code Geass. Death Note will blow you away . So will FMA

Oh and Cowboy Bebop is lovely

At the beginning yes. It is extremely good until:

SPOILERS

The death of L, after that the series went completely downhill imo.

Cannot agree with enough. I dropped the series years ago when    L died    and only just recently picked it back up to finish the series. I really wished I stopped with season 1 though.. After that, the story took a dive for the worst and MC went on to act like a complete idiot. And I hated the ending (could see it coming a mile off) :P
