Berserk is a great show for anyone who likes really deep stuff. Definitely not for kids though. One of my absolute favorites.

RahXephon is a show that borrows a lot from Evangelion, but I think it's so much better. Great animation too.

Excel Saga and FLCL are both crazy and hilarious, making little sense. FLCL also has some of the greatest animation ever.

I've seen the first episode of Saint Seiya. Laughed real hard when the guy chopped his own ear off. (Kind of weird, though. Especially when it was twitching the way it was. o.O)

Record of Lodoss Wars, btw, is outstanding. Loved every minute of it. Ashram rocks! ^_~

I've heard good things about Lodoss Wars, need to check it out myself.
I just put Anime Network onto my cable. (Like my bill isn't big enough as it is) Been working my way through some of those.
Kind of like a new one they have, Pretear. Not bad. Also have been following Wolf's Rain on Cartoon Network. Of course IMHO anything wolf is good.

glad to see I am not the only one confused with the Kenshin movie titles

Not as far as I know. It was based off of an rpg-like set of novels and was in oav format first. There is a newer show that is sort of a next-generation spiel. It's called Record of Lodoss Wars: Chronicles of the Heroic Knight.

So, books, OAV, TV show, in that order.

Tell me about it. I prefer to see the things as they were originally published. Prevents spoilers and confusion. For example, the Kenshin OAVs deal with Kenshin's past and were done after the tv show had run in Japan. The reason for this is because the show kind of uses his past as a subplot, being mysterious. Hence, watching the OAVs first would spoil some of the revealings in the series.

So which does the US put out first? The OAVs of course! O.o

Of course, in Record of Lodoss Wars' case, the tv series is quite a bit after the oav. Still better to watch the oav first, though. I will warn you that the OAV first episode throws you into the middle of the story. It goes to the beginning in the second episode. BUT it isn't confusing, I swear. It's really, really, good.

Great to see you're following Wolf's Rain! I have the series (but not the latest installments post series) and it's just fantastic. I can't stress enough how wonderful it is.

The ending was pretty bleh...hence the reason for post-series episodes, there's about 3 of them, so I can't wait to see those.


Kenshin the movie suprised me by being actually very good...I enjoyed the movie and the other OVAs compared with actual series so far.






I WANT to be taken awaaaayyyy.....

Has anybody heard of something called Basara? An aquaintence is trying to get me to read it. I think its about some girl who dresses up like her dead twin brother and fights baddies.
