Godzilla Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 Sorry to ask this question since I am sure this has been asked before, but I am just getting into anime other than Macross and Mospeada. You have to remember I grew up on Robotech. Anyways, I got into Full Metal Panic. After watching the 1st dvd, I promptly ordered what was available for retail. Basically I bought 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. I know 7 and 8 are not out yet. This weekend I got my 36" Sony HDTV. Boy it was sweet. Anyways, my buddy came over and brought a bunch of anime DVDs. He is a anime nut. I started watching Evangelion DVD #1, and promptly liked it though I am having a hard time with some parts of the storyline. Then he brought over Cardcaptor Sakura, Najica, and Noir. I like Star Blazers wayy back when but I was listening to the english adaptation. I heard Bolan Wars sucked. Anyways, I was looking into Patlabor and anything else with Mecha. Now I dont have M0 but I will wait till that comes out on DVD for the USA but anybody have any more suggestions? Quote
Montarvillois Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 I'm actualy almost done with Gundam seed and I must say I love it. Guess you can't go wrong with this one. Quote
Duke Togo Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 Aim for the Top! Gunbuster, FLCL, anything by Miyazaki... Miyazaki really is the best. Can't go wrong there. Akira, of course, Ninja Scroll, Bubblegum Crisis (the original)... Quote
dyowelb Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 i would suggest getting ptlabor... also if you want some miltary type (not much action though) get gasaraki which is on sale now ($30 as supposed to $130) Quote
Agent ONE Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 Golgo13 The Professional Golgo13 Queen Bee (only see this if you have seen the first) Quote
Godzilla Posted February 2, 2004 Author Posted February 2, 2004 i would suggest getting ptlabor... also if you want some miltary type (not much action though) get gasaraki which is on sale now ($30 as supposed to $130) I had asked about Gasaraki before but there were mixed reviews from this community. I am not sure about this real world mixed with mythology and such. I just heard ppl had a hard time understanding the story. Quote

Druna Skass Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 (edited) Well you go could check out La B... No never mind... Go check out Great Teacher Onizuka. And Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust is pretty good too. Edited February 3, 2004 by Druna Skass Quote
Aegis! Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 Now I dont have M0 but I will wait till that comes out on DVD for the USA but anybody have any more suggestions? Good luck waiting for M0 mate. Don´t want to get into a debate or anything but I´m sure HG has it locked in their radars from a long time ago and they´re just waiting for it to come a bit closer so they can shoot it down as they´ve done with all previous macross series (except for M+). As for your suggestions I recomemend you wathc Rahxephon , Cowboy Bepop and FLCL. I would like to reccomend Yukikaze but I honestly thought it was lacking a lot so is not really worth except if your just looking for nice dogfights. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 Patlabor TV series, tons of fun. I also recommend Aura Battle Dunbine, and any Gundam series (except for Wing and the US English dub-only release of Mobile Suit Gundam TV series). Quote
Göönk Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 I like "Planetes" a lot. It's not a war anime, but still in space and very realistic (0G, etc...). Not available on DVD yet I think, only subbed divx. 36 eps. Quote

Damn them HG ppl! Still I dont see it being a problem why would they let the Macross plus be sold here? Quote
renegadeleader1 Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 If your new to anime there are three anime titles you simply MUST get! Agent Aika on two discs from U.S. Manga corps Najica Blitz Tactics on three discs from ADV Megami paradise on two VHS from a company I can't recall right now. Quote
gnollman Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 Infinite Ryvius is turning out pretty good.... Abenobashi Magical Shopping Arcade is funny as hell.... FLCL is kind of nuts, but a damn good show all the same.... Cowboy Bebop is a must see..... Crest of the Stars is a great sci-fi show... and it's sequels, Banner of the Stars and Banner of the Stars II.... Neo-Ranga is a good show... Witch Hunter Robin isn't too bad, but haven't seen enough of it.... GTO is absolutely hillarious.... Berserk is pretty damn good, actually.... Quote
Sebastian Posted February 4, 2004 Posted February 4, 2004 Rahxephon. I LOVE this show. Get it if you can! Last Exile. GREAT anymation work. The only gundam I really liked was the 08th team. That was real good. Also Victory Gundam. Crest of Stars is Damn good as well Infinite Ryvius is nice but I couldnt stand the stupid main character... Shinji Ikari stile... Quote
