Everybody's favorite anime series

I tend to follow the anime on Adult Awim, since that's what I have on in the background while drawing/inking. I rather enjoy Full Metal Alchemist. And that theme song from the second season or whatever is always in my head. My faves are still Lupin III and Cowboy Bebop though. I don't like s-CRY-ed.

Naruto.

I looooooove Record of Lodoss War. My friend rented the OVA, and we watched the entire thing in one sitting.

Others I enjoy are Rurouni Kenshin, Outlaw Star, and, for some silly reason, Naruto.

What can I say: I love the Feudal Japan type of stuff.

Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo reminded me too much of my random speaking when I was a kid. Probably that's why I like it so much.

I also like most of the anime on adult swim (Not Wolf's Rain, nor S-cry-ed), Excel Saga, Magic Knight Rayearth, and Bleach.

Then I just know you'll enjoy Fushigi Yuugi and Inu Yasha.

There are a few animes I've seen and liked. Hellsing was a bit meh, and there are a few others I don't particially like. But my favourites in no particular order:

Full Metal Alchemist (inc. Movie)
Scrapped Princess
Macross & Macross Plus
serial experiments: lain
Patlabor (mobile police & the movie)
Full Metal Panic!

Paranoia Agent
Fullmetal Alchemist
Stand Alone Complex
Haibane Renmei
Neia_7
Lain
Boogiepop Phantom

Excel Saga, FLCL, and Abenobashi are probably my favorite outright comedies, mostly because they're so freakin' manic, and very self-reflexive of Japanese cliché.

Most of the series I like are over. I liked Sailormoon (never did see all of it, though, and the cartoon network dubs were pretty hacked), Fullmetal Alchemist, Inuyasha, Outlaw Star, Trigun, FLCL, Scrapped Princess, and Cowboy Bebop (though I think they have a new season out, 1.5 or something). All sadly over. Currently I watch Naruto and occassionally One Piece (though I think it's a bit overrated... the voices are a bit much).

I prefer the subtitled versions of Naruto, One Piece, FMA, Inuyasha, and Scrapped Princess immensely. With the others I was fine with the dubs, even Sailormoon because the Japanese voice actors were annoying.

I tend not to pick favorites, because I see such a variety and my tastes change so quickly.

I've always been fond of Slayers though, and Irresponsible Captian Tylor, which I'm seeing for the first time right now, is absolutely fantastic.

One movie I forgot to mention that I liked a lot was Appleseed (2004). Now THAT was a good movie!

I haven't even heard of half of the titles you mentioned... O_o

As for liking anime in general - I doubt anyone likes an entire blanket genre, or if they do, they're just jumping a fad and aren't really appreciating the individual samples. It all, as usual, boils down to the writing for me. I AM fond of Full Metal Alchemist, Trigun, and Inuyasha - but I loathe and detest Ghost in the Shell and Yugi-o (for very different reasons).

Man, they were WAY back in the day, along with smurfs and Care-Bears!

The last I saw of The Smurfs is when they decided to go time travelling to return that stupid dinosaur to to the prehistoric age. Then they got cancelled and never returned home. It's all Brainy's fault, really. He lost the magic key in a crater full of lava.

It's all about Tenchi Muyo in Space.

You know what this means?

Humans are really descended from smurfs!! They're the missing link!
