Who here likes Anime?

Post by blackomen »

Although it's purely lighthearted entertainment, I kinda like the ones with an undercurrent of a deeper meaning, namely Evangelion and the Melancholoy of Haruhi Suzumiya..

I haven't seen either of those, but I'll be sure to check them out.

A while back, AdamA mentioned Death Note, which I subsequently watched and thought was great. A friend of mine also recommended Samurai Champloo, and I really enjoyed that one as well. It's definitely more lighthearted than Death Note, but the character development still sucks you in.

Yeah, Death Note is great science fiction.

Death Note's one of my favorites although I only recently saw it earlier this year...

+1 Death Note... I thoroughly enjoyed that one.  I still thought the ending sucked though (not wanting to spoil it for folks)...
