Journal WannaBeGeekGirl's Journal: Favorite Anime? Best Anime? 7
Ok /.'ers I have two questions and a favor. I have been an anime addict since 1991, but I have been out of the loop for about 3 years.
If you doubt my anime nerdiness goto animemusicvideos.org where two of my very old and silly amvs are available for download. Don't make fun of them, they both made finals at Anime Expo that year! Of course they're all mushy and romantic, I'm into shoujo like most chicks. Ok well, I'm into other genres too, just not naughty tenticles and echi. Video making software for the PC sucked bigtime and I didn't have access to the film eq at USC. Don't get me started on the Matrox Rainbowrunner or the sudden drop in value of my massive laserdisc collection.
First, the favor, not many people read my journal, but I'd like as much feedback to this as possible. So if you read this and have a /. friend that likes anime or is strongly opinionated about anime please pass it along.
What is your favorite anime? (note I didn't specify that you have to give one answer)
What is the best anime? (note: see above about not specifying only one answer)
Pretty please with some fanservice on top reply? (well if you prefer your fanservice on the bottom perhaps that can be arranged too--talk to the cute little blue haired anime girl icon) ~anime tear drop~
P.S. No, I'm not smoking crack, I think there will emerge differences between favorites and bests! Watch for my reply if you want an example. Just give me time to go dust off the old laserdiscs and hook up the laserdisc player. (please let it still work)
P.P.S. Please don't flamewar over Robotech vs. Macross on the technicality that Carl Macek basically took Macross and raped it of a lot of good plot and graphics and mixed in some other show and created Robotech. Some die hard fans get touchy about this, but lets play nice. Macek and Robotech did partially atone for their sins (not much but a bit--okok so i'm an anime purist too!) by getting anime some airtime and thus fans in the US.

What would you recommend that I move on to?

In Favorites: Ghost In the Shell (Movies and series), Evangelion, anything by Miyazaki, Vampire Hunter D and Ninja Scroll. Also, just picked myself up one of the Captain Harlock box sets. I was addicted to that show as a child.
As for best, that's a tough one. It would have to be a tossup between Evangelion and Mononoke. They're both pretty much perfect.
Favorites & Bests? Difficult one... (Score:1)
When I was 3-4 years old, my favorites were Bem, Devilman, Hokuto no Ken and Kimba (the white lion).
They are still in my heart, but (with HnK exception) i don't think they are among the best.
So, here's my (temporary) list:
Favorites: HnK, Macross(include Robotech here), Planetes, Lodoss, Escaflowne, Trigun, Spirited Away (and much more from Studio Ghibli)...
Best: Spirited Away, Howl's m.c., HnK, Cowboy BeBop, Evangelion, Captain Harlock, Starblazers,
