My Top Anime series
I am a big anime fan from the day I first saw Dragon Ball on out local TV channel. I have a long path before me in search of a great anime series, but here is a short list of those I've seen so far and I loved them.
I only watch anime with subtitles. From the beginning I believe you can truly experience the cultural difference only with the original language, because a lot can be lost in dubbing (I know, a lot is lost in translation also). However listening in the language anime was made is gives you a different perspective. You can also learn a new language. Don't be lazy, watch in sub!

- CreatorHideaki AnnoStarsMegumi OgataMegumi HayashibaraKotono MitsuishiA teenage boy finds himself recruited as a member of an elite team of pilots by his father.This is my favourite anime of all times. I like deep, psychological, dark and attention-grabbing depressing themes and this is a masterpiece, with a dash of religion and philosophy.
- CreatorSatoshi KonStarsShôzô ÎzukaToshihiko SekiMamiko NotoSeemingly unconnected citizens of Tokyo are targeted for bludgeoning by a boy with a golden baseball bat. As detectives try to link the victims, they discover that following the assaults, the victims' lives have improved in some way.Simply love it, it stayed with me for a long time; you'll never be disappointed by this drama/crime/comedy/thriller about a girl and her guilt, that followed her and create two horrible monsters.
- StarsAtsushi AbeNatsumi TakamoriTomoaki MaenoA young man named, Koichi Sakakibara, transfers to a new school where he finds himself drawn into a mystery involving a mysterious girl and a series of gruesome deaths.It keeps you entertained till the last episode. Only for strong-minded.
- CreatorLynn OkamotoStarsSanae KobayashiChihiro SuzukiMamiko NotoTwo university students come across a seemingly harmless girl named Lucy, unaware that she's actually a mutant serial killer with a split personality.Mixture of blood and violence, interesting story about humans and a mutant with special powers, some nudity... Fantasy and science fiction combined. Mysterious lead girl Lucy will get under your skin.
- StarsMatthew ElkinsHiroshi KamiyaKazuhiko InoueWhen Natsume Takashi inherits a book that belonged to his late grandmother he realizes the book is filled with the names of spirits she defeated and bound to her will. He then decides to return their names so they can be free once again.Spirit world. Boy Natsume can see them and decide to free them from the Book of friends. I love the Nyanko-sensei character, a mysterious ayakashi in form of a lucky cat (maneki neko), Natsume's 'bodyguard' and advisor.
- CreatorNagaru TanigawaStarsTomokazu SugitaAya HiranoYûko GotôThe crazy adventures of the SOS Brigade, led by the insane but charismatic Haruhi.Beautiful story, amazing characters.
- StarsMinori MatsushimaKazuhiko InoueMakio InoueThe life of Candy, a little orphan girl, and her friends.Another anime from my childhood. I hoped, smiled and cried with Candy. She was just amazingly done, such beautiful cinematography - photography, bright colours, vivid characters and lovely story about love.
- CreatorDai SatôKazuhiko ShimamotoStarsYûko SanpeiKeiji FujiwaraKaori Nazuka14-year-old Renton joins the rebel GekkoState ship, co-pilots the TypeZero with the mysterious Eureka, and unknowingly becomes part of a grand scheme.Mecha anime. I like mechas and I liked this one. Lots of fun and adventure, fighting and emotional bonding, mysterious environment and highly entertaining.
- StarsYûtarô HonjôTetsuo GotôChie NakamuraIn a technologically advanced future, a young boy accidentally activates the strange giant robot his mother piloted before she went missing. He becomes a pilot with only one mission - to find his mother.
- StarsMamoru MiyanoBrad SwaileVincent TongAn intelligent high school student goes on a secret crusade to eliminate criminals from the world after discovering a notebook capable of killing anyone whose name is written into it.Very dark and macabre, full of terror and nerve-wrecking.
- StarsJessie James GrelleBryce PapenbrookTrina NishimuraAfter his hometown is destroyed and is traumatized, young Eren Jaeger vows to cleanse the earth of the giant humanoid Titans that have brought humanity to the brink of extinction.Attack on Titan is one of the most interesting adventure anime, where the plot is interesting and vivid and action scenes are amazing. It is about a battle of survival between the Titans and humanity, which is faced with an internal enemy, besides the Titans. I am only disappointed by characters development.
- StarsShintarô AsanumaHiroyuki YoshinoRin MizuharaWhen a nameless student at Kyoto University encounters a demigod one night, he asks to relive the past three years in order to win the heart of Ms. Akashi, the object of his affection.The most interesting style I have come to see is visible in this anime. Focusing on a love story (not my favourite theme) is still visually stunning and interesting. The only thing that bothered me is fast-talking; I even had to pause some parts so I could read the subtitles. If you want something different from mainstream anime style, this is a good start for you.
- StarsAya HiranoNobunaga ShimazakiRinka H.B.B.17-year-old Shinichi Izumi is partially infected by a Parasyte, monsters that butcher and consume humans. He must learn to co-exist with the creature if he is to survive both the life of a Parasyte and a human as part monster, part person.Very interesting story; different from anything I've seen before. Science fiction horror part is great, romance part not so much.
- StarsMasako NozawaJôji YanamiBrice ArmstrongSon Gokû, a fighter with a monkey tail, goes on a quest with an assortment of odd characters in search of the Dragon Balls, a set of crystals that can give its bearer anything they desire.On the list only because of nostalgia for childhood. Adventure, lots of laughs, silliness, fighting. My childhood memories.
- StarsYutaka KoizumiYui MakinoMichael C. PizzutoThis surreal dramedy follows Satou Tatsuhiro as he attempts to escape the evil machinations of the NHK.Very interesting and it keeps you on endge.
- CreatorKeiichi AraiStarsShizuka FuruyaHiromi KonnoMariko HondaFollow the adventures of three ordinary girls as they learn their most important lessons the hard way. Meanwhile, a pocket-sized professor makes life difficult for a robot who just wants to be normal.Such a nice feel-good and goofy anime you can relax to and have a good laugh.
