I also really liked Gundam Wing when I last saw it... but I was 14 at the time, so I am reluctant to try it again and find it disappointing.

Don't get me started on Gundam Wing. Really, have you SEEN all gay undertones there? Trowa and Quatre were so having steamy underage sex off screen.

Not that that's a bad thing.

I heard that the producers of the show wanted to appeal to both male and female audiences (as well as the female shounen ai following) which is why there are a lot of hot men & boys running around the show, plus all their emotional scenes ^_^

Gundam Wing's my favourite gundam series (and I've seen a lot of them >_>) And Chang Wufei's where it's at!

My favorite anime is probably Great Teacher Onizuka, although Ranma 1/2 is good too.

y'know, I'm not sure if Gundam Wing is as good as I remember it was, but I also seem to recall a scene where this military woman shoves this guy out of a plane and then shoots him as he falls just to make sure he dies. maybe it is as good as I remember.

Oh, they were so getting it on! Don't forget Zechs and Trei Kushrenada, or whatever his name is. Of course, they were hot. Moreso than Trowa and Quatre, but whatever.

Damn good show.

They're all hot! And *another* reason why I really liked the Gundam Wing because it had a lot of strong female characters (except Relena Peacecraft 'cause she was *so* annoying) >.<

"Heero!" "Heero!"

Jeez, she was as bad as Navi from Zelda. I watched the entire series just waiting for Heero to shoot the girl and put us all out of our misery.

Holy peach nuts! Me too! I felt that she was just pointless. She, next to Heero, was one of the most static characters I've ever seen in anime. Of course, Heero had a reason for his inhuman demeanor, so Relina has no excuse. Gah, I really don't like her character.

Now Usagi Tsukino, now that's a girl with some personality. XD

I've been pretty inthralled with Full Metal Alchemist, as well as Big O...at least the first season of Big O. The second season felt WAY too rushed, like they were trying to cram way too much crap into 13 episodes to do what they really wanted to do.

And Bebop, I loves me some Bebop.

Sounds like Minmei from Macross. Even when I was a kid, I wanted someone to park a veritech in front of that helium-voiced bimbo and hit the afterburner.

I think it's a rule. Every anime has to have at least one utterly worthless but cute girl, so that the geeky fanboys won't be scared away by the one girl in the show with a bit of backbone.

Urk, Gundam Wing...

It was the only anime-type show on Canadian television for a while when I was ... eh, maybe 14, making it the "gateway drug" for a whole generation of screaming anime fangirls. So many fangirls.... T_T

I'd just like to add for a manga series I truly enjoy Slam Dunk. I just read through all 200+ chapters last night and GOD DAMN it was good. My next goal is to download the anime.

Ok here are a few off the top of my head.

Fist of the North Star(the movie more then the series but I watched the hell out of the series also.)

anything made by Go Nagi (Devilman and friends.)

DragonBall (mostly everything before Z )

Hellsing (yeh! vampires with guns!)

Robotech (the show that started it all!)

oh yeah...and Outlaw Star (because Gene is so sexy!)
