lol, I don't watch all shonen.

Which old ones should I watch anyway? I plan to watch Cowboy Bebop sometime.

 

What ones before the current decade?

Well first go back to the list I recommended for Rubang. Those are mostly "modern classics." Get through those, then we'll talk. Watch FLCL too.

I've been watching anime for 10 years, it's not like I can just list out everything I've seen. I have plenty I can recommend you though in all genres. Also name one anime you've watched that's not shonen.

All of the ones you listed to Rubang I planned on watching to begin with except Spice and Wolf and Outlaw Star.

Though I've already watched Baccano.

I've only watched Haruhi that's not shonen...

Anyway I've watched these in the past (not sure if Thundercats and He-Man are anime though):

Thundercats
DBZ
Dragonball
He-Man
Zoids (<3)
Sailor Moon
There was some other anime I watched that I don't remember its name where there was this one guy and a lot of girls liked him including some white hair woman. He then goes to some virtual world place I think then he meets this one girl that he really likes.

Some of the older Transformers I think as well but don't know.


None of those really count as classics except maybe DBZ. It's just crap that happened to show up in America.

Haruhi is shonen....

Incidentally Sailor Moon is shoujo.

It's just sentai shoujo.



naznatips on 20 April 2009

Yeah, Sailor Moon is "technically" shojo. Barely. It's still just made for guys to look at high school girls fighting in skirts.



Khuutra on 20 April 2009

Dude that series is so for girls come on

Have you seeen the manga art, it'll make your teeth rot! Shoujo bubbles and pretty, waifish men everywhere!

"Oh Tuxedo Mask, you're so dashing!"

"You know I'm madly in love with you from afar and can only express this by rescuing you from danger with symbols of feminine sexuality"

"OH TUXEDO MASK *smooch smooch*"

"*smooch smooch*"

Yes, well she also gets naked and spins around everytime she transforms, wears miniskirts, and at least one of them is a lesbian.

DBK is DBZ's original footage completely recut. The series is planned to be reduced from 290 episodes to about 100 episodes. In other words a lot of filler is going to be cut, as well as a lot of yelling and flexing and reaction shots lol.

 

So Frieza battle won't be 28 (I think) episodes any more? Sounds great

 

Nope. It should be signifficantly shorter, but what will be removed won't be fighting. It will be repeated dialog, unnecessary and lengthy character reaction shots, and all that lovely stuff they put in their to drastically slow the pacing of the anime to keep it from catching up to the manga.

such as a energy blast taking 2 fucking episodes before it fires XD

 

guy powering up for the late half of a episode and finishing powering op in the late half of the next episode XD haha :p
