Forums - General - Can someone recommend a good anime for me?

iclim4 on 07 March 2008

Well, back in the day I used to watch a LOT of anime.
Especially when I first moved to the states, mainly because I didnt really know anyone yet.
Youtube was also still new and full of copyrighted materials so it was very easy to watch anime.

Well after a year or two , I finally started to fit in US society.
I learned to speak english properly, I went to school and got my first job in the US of A.
Afterwhich my anime days was but a distant dream.
Well now I finally have some free time, and I think its time for me to watch anime to my hearts content again.
its been awhile since I last watched a new anime, the only anime I've watched
recently are the ones I've been keeping up with(i.e. The weekly Naruto and Bleach episodes)

Well, right now I'm craving for a good romance, with some fantasy elements.
Since there seems to be a lot of anime fans here, I'm hoping you guy/girls can help me. ^_^

anime's I've really liked:

Fate/Stay Night
Kimi ga nozomu eien
Elfen Lied
Berserk
Hajime no Ippo
Fullmetal Alchemist
Full metal panic
Full moon Wo sagashite

I've seen and liked a lot more, but those are my favorites I can pull out from the top of my head.
Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ^_^

Check out Love Hina for a good comic romance, no fantasy there though... I am not sure I know of anything that would fit your bill...

Umm I've heard relatively good things about Witchblade. Knowing what you've seen would really help :P

But if you haven't seen them.... Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, Tenchi Muyo, Samurai Champloo :P

@OP it's not quite anime, but have you seen the show Avatar? Probably the best American animation show I've ever seen ^_^

I've seen Love Hina, my brother bought the whole DVD set.
It was fun, but not really my cup of tea.

seeing as you have Caster as an avatar, Fate/Stay Night could fit the romance/fantasy
genre, but I already saw FSN. ='(

actually most of the anime's I've listed in my opening are romance/fantasy.
