I know this was asked a while ago but I was curious about newer members. Is anyone here interested in anime? If you are, which ones do you like?

I'm addicted very very very badly to One Piece (Jen's fault..) It's very entertaining and funny...and great. and Zoro. Well I don't know if you'd call it an addiction..I mean, I bought a T-shirt, have the entire soundtrack, 102 epis (and getting more) manga, all my website layouts consist of OP characters..uh..yeah I'll stop now.

I also like Naruto and Fullmetal Alchemist. Very good too. But I'm sure you guys never heard of them cause it hasn't been licensed yet form Japan (well actually One Piece and FMA are new licences I think) Also IMO, if you've only watched stuff on TV and have decided it's horrible then you should watch the good stuff before judging ;)I HATE the stuff on our TV. I would never watch the stuff my bro has cause I thought it was all like the crap on TV but I watched some Japanese one iwth subtitles (.hack actually) and have loved it since lol

Ones you guys probably heard of that I like are Outlaw Star, Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, Escaflowne, etc.

Yes I know I'm weird so hopefully more people here like anime too so I'm not a weird loner....

Hai hai...ja ne T-T

I LOVE anime, it's totally addicting when you find the right stuff. My personal faves would have to be:

Fushigi Yugi
Ayashi Ceres
Marmalade Boy
Ranma 1/2 (oldie but a goodie)
Rurouni Kenshin
Love Hina
Tri-gun
Key the metal idol
Sailor Moon (but it has to be the Japanese version...none of that english dubbed crap)
and
Neon Genesis Evangalion


Haven't really had a chance to watch any new ones lately because the video store that I go to had a fire and they aren't renting anything right now :( I could download some of the fansubs but I've been to busy downloading Asian Dramas instead...those are almost as addicting

My Faves are:

Slayers and
Ruroni Kenshin (the real Japanese version, not the watered down cr*p they sell state-side)

I've also recently started watching FullMetal Alchemist. I'm only 4 eps in but I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

Escaflowne is also really good but I wish I had never been exposed to Evangelion.

ONE PIECE!!!

heehee... No need to thank me, Audrey. ;)

I read more comic book than watching anime. Another one is Detective Conan (called Case Closed in US). I also like The Prince of Tennis, Shaman King, Naurto, Hikaru No Go...etc etc... I am quite very addicted. You should see all the books and DVDs I have at home. It's INSANE! lol.

Thought I would add: I only like to watch it in Japanese with subtitle, the dubbed ones are baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad (IMO).

My brothers used to LOVE this stuff, they would watch it ALL the time, now me, I don't like it all that much and am glad they don't watch it any more so I don't have to. Although, I do find myself watching this one Anime Show, not sure what it is :)

I'm not so much into the series anime, but to be honest, I've never seen much of it. I do like some of the full length features tho. Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and Castle in the Sky are all great movies.

I enjoyed those movies as well. We watched Castle in the Sky in Japanese class actually haha.
