What is the best anime out of these:

◊ Dragonball GT (*drool*)
◊ Dragonball Z (*wipes* *drool again*)
◊ Ghost In The Shell SAC (Sci-fi to the max!!!!)
◊ Gundam (Mecha - Big freakin robots very cool, Robotech style)
◊ Inu Yasha (I found it boring, I stopped at ep 11/95(?))
◊ Naruto (I got random eps :cry: but very cool)
◊ Ranma 1/2 (Very old, got a Dragonball, non Z, effect :x )
◊ Ruroni Kenshin (This should be number 1 on list)
◊ Samurai Champloo (I only got 2 eps :oops: but if u liked Kenshin, you'll enjoy this more, plus the soundtrack is hip)
◊ Scrapped Princess (I stopped at eps 3, bit boring for me :o )

Ranma is supposed to be pretty good but I have yet to start watching it, I think Inu Yasha is finally finished at around 175 episodes or so but don't quote me on that, I also haven't seen it...

i can picture a lot of japanese artists sitting in a sweatshop drawing day and night with minimal wages and long hours...let's hope they don't start complaining and go on strike.

i'm stuck on van dread season 2, can't get episodes further than 3...it's like being denied your birthright.

Hey I'm so glad to see the Anime thread up & running again, I'm busy watching an awesome show called Chrno Crusade it is great all about a demon which turns to fight on the side of light, there is more but I won't spoil it for some. Also if anyone wants to know about any & all animes ever made in existence go to Anime Database it is perhaps one of the best if not the best most comprehensive sites for Anime info, its episode & anime database gets updated regularly...

Ahh, Chrno Crusade was awesome, bit of a sad ending though. I've started Full Metal Alchemist now & it is flipping great, can't wait to finish it...
