Yeah, but Youtube has banned all of them TT_TT

The 3rd and 4th episodes are my favorites though. And episodes come in twos. So for you to really understand the plot of one, you have to watch the next. Episode 1&2 are pairs 3&4 are pairs, and so on and so on.

Not really surprising. BONES + Yoko Kanno = instawin.

I'm not really much into watching anime recently, since I'm watching another type of Japanese media (Google my name and you'll find out XD ).

But...my friends frequently recommend me Code Geass & D.Gray Man. Are they really good?

Ganheim wrote:By the way, has anybody seen "Angelic Layer"? A friend sent me a music video, and it looks like it has pretty good fight scenes, but from a well-cut 2-minute music video it's pretty hard to judge an anime.
I just finished watching Angelic Layer the other night.
As long as you don't mind the cutsie atmosphere that is often present in CLAMP animes, you'll like it. Actually, the cuteness level isn't that bad, not nearly as high as Cardcaptor Sakura.

The story is really about Misaki (the main character) and her mom. I don't want to say too much, because that would spoil it. Definitely recommend this though, it was a joy to watch. You really end up cheering for Misaki in all her fights.


Another anime I'd recommend is Planetes. I consider it on the same quality level as Cowboy Bebop and Trigun and such. I really enjoyed it; in fact, I watched the whole anime within four days, which I never do.

The story is set in space in the year 2075. Space exploration has expanded, but in order to keep it safe for people to travel, there is a need for debris collectors.
That's where Ai Tanabe finds herself working, in Debris, or more commonly called Half, Section. Working together with her is the loudmouth Hachirota "Hachimaki" Hoshino. The two will work together to collect debris, along with the rest of Debris Section, and who knows just what experiences they'll have?

^ There, my attempt at a small summary. Hope you guys at least look into it for a bit.

More recommendations from TK: Noir, Grenadier, Ergo Proxy, and Azumanga Diaoh. The fist three are pretty similar in theme minus the varying amounts of action-to-comedy and whatnot, but Azumanga is just plain hilarious

Blue Seed-I don't really know much about the series but it looks like a good anime to watch.
Magic Knights Rayearth-Funny characters as well as a great plot twist on the final episode.
