Top 5 of all time...

[arimiSlacker]

I don't know if there is already a thread like this, but if there is its dead. So its simple, list your top 5 favorite animes of all time. Whether its a series or just a movie!

Mine are:
(in no particular order)

Chobits

Akira

Bleach

Serial Experiments Lain

Ninja Scroll

[TheSorrow]

Akira
Gurren Lagann
Gantz
Saikano
Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni

My top 5, in that order. There are several more series i really love and all, but for me this top 5 is one of "Favorite series of all time" and "Best series of all time"...for me of course xD

Denno Coil
Serial Experiments Lain

Neon Genesis Evangelion
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu
Code Geass
Death Note
Shoujo Kakumei Utena
Anything by Key
Anything by CLAMP

I know it's more than five, but those are all pretty much equal for me. I don't pick favorites among favorites, though I suppose you could read it from top to bottom if you must.

This works for me. I'd just throw in Hellsing because, well, you know...

Ruroni Kenshin

3. Tenchi Muyo
4. Inyuhasha

I should murder you for this.

[AuraTwilight]

Seconded. Most of you have lousy taste.

[Vahn Staffear]

- A lot of the Gundam series
- Outlaw Star
- Code Geass
- Death Note (not the part after L died, that part was booty)
- Gurren Lagann

I could prolly think of more... but this is all untill then.

[Erranty]

Seconded. Most of you have lousy taste.

If we weren't restricted to anime, I'd have to say the best cartoon series of all time was that old Batman cartoon that was running back in the 90's, during Warner Brother's golden age so to speak. It had steady plot development, fillers that were actually worth watching, and you never felt even slightly embarrassed for watching it by ANYONE!

1. Naruto
2. Bleach
3. Tenchi Muyo
4. Inyuhasha
5. Dragon Ball GT

Embrace for impact.

Ya know, lets just design an entire series for you that's nothing but fillers of side-characters with only about 4 or 5 episodes required to tell the story... lets call it Paranoia Agent!

[Haseo{Terror of Death}]

1. Naruto
2. Bleach
3. Tenchi Muyo
4. Inyuhasha
5. Dragon Ball GT

Embrace for impact.

XD, those are your favorites? ...Not even Dragon Ball or Dragon Ball Z, but friggin' GT? LOL Oh well, I liked Tenchi Muyo.
Naruto's Anime sucks a whole lot, and Bleach is meh.

I commend you, however, for having the balls to say those are your five favorites.

[Erranty]

Inuyasha is not an anime, its a soap opera.

[Gemcrim]

I like many more but I'm limiting this to five, this is also in no particular order since they're liked for different reasons and I hate to say that I feel one is "better" than the other.

Death Note

I can't believe Ghost in The Shell's been listed once. That's kinda surprising.

Well, I guess mine would be

The Original Astroboy
Cyborg 009
Sailor Moon
Battle of the Planets
Witchblade
Hellsing
Beserk
Ghost in The Shell
Cowboy Beebop
Naruto episodes with Itachi or Kyuubi Naruto.

I understood it, I just didn't enjoy it. The only episode I really liked was the one with  the 3 ghosts that didn't know they were already dead. Fuyubachi, Zebra and... what was the little girl's name?
