Anime

What do you like? Or do you just hate it?

I'm surprisingly a big fan of it, just not all the mainstream stuff.
Pokemon, for instance, can go die a bloody death.

Then again, not sure if I can call myself a big fan, because I haven't seen a TON of series.

In no order, what I've seen:

Cowboy Bebop
.hack//sign
Trinity Blood
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Full Metal Alchemist
Lodoss War
Apppleseed

I -think- that's all of them.. then of course random episodes from many others, like Trigun, that I really want to watch at some point.

NGE was my introduction to anime, dear god, talk about a fucking mind warping introduction. Crazy stuff.

Then Cowboy Bebop, still one of my favorites.

Full Metal Alchemist was next, I adore that series utterly and completly. The movie sucked, but the series was amazing.

Recently when all my Doctor Who DVD's and other DVD's were stolen (yeah, meh), I dug out this old spindle of DVD's that friends had burned for me and saw a lot of anime marked ones I never touched.

Decided to give Bleach a shot, on episode 73 right now.. it's really surprised me. I expected not to like it for some reason, but I'm totally becoming asorbed by it now.

So yeah, what do you guys like, if anything?

Oh, also.. subbed / dubbed / don't care?

I only will watch subbed. I love hearing the orginal actors. When it's re-done in english, they butcher the lines, story and half the time the actors they get suck.

I watched FMA subbed ages ago, then caught a dubbed episode.. the voices were so jarring and off for the characters I just shut it off.

Then again the biggest argument I hear against subbed is 'But we have to read!' - ... STFU.

Mostly Americans, of course.
