I was wondering if you guys could recommend to me any good animes.  :)
I've been watching all the old Digimon episodes since September, and I'm on the last season now. What should I start on next?

I like Slayers (even the dub is good), Death Note (sub), and if you are in a shoujo-girly mood, Full Moon wo Sagashite (sub) is adorable. I haven't really seen many animes recently to be of much use. lol

Renwaldo

I have a friend who is obsessed with Deathnote.

On that note, have you ever heard of one called Ghost Stories? You can find it on youtube, the english dubs are hilarious. It's a kids show in japanese, but when the American translators got a hold of it they made it an R rated series.  ;D The ratings were so poor over in Asia that the producers told the American broadcasters to do what they like with it to make the ratings better over here.

coeboy bebop, trigun, rurouni kenshin, uummm..... afro samurai  ........ just to name a few. ghost in the shell. just depends what your into.
There are two types of ppl in this world, those who do what there told, and those who are true to them selves. Most people think your suppose to follow a predetermend path, keep your head down, obay the rules, do what evers popular, but some prefer to find there own path in life.

-Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

It really depends on what you like.  Things similar to digimon?  You might like Dragonball and Dragonball Z. .hack//sign was good too, if you don't mind a bit of a head trip.  Ergo Proxy is also great, but a lot darker and more serious ... also another head trip.

I've watched quite a few series over the net.
D.Gray-men
Ippo Makunouchi
Neon Genesis Evagalion
Deathnote
Digimon Seasons

I love digimon so much. My favourite season was the first and I enjoyed three. My friends know about anime more than I do though >.>

Roxxy_Starrz

Just a few I haven't seen mentioned yet that you might want to consider, though some of them are one shot seasons.
Once again it all depends on what you are in to. I'm just throwing some random names out there.

Scrapped Princess
Zombie Loan
Grenadier

And if you have ever watched any of the Galaxy Express 999 movies or subsequent series I would highly recommend
Galaxy Express 999: Eternal Fantasy
Galaxy Railways: Letter From An Abandoned Planet
Galaxy Railways: Crossroad to Eternity

Watch them in that order too :)

My favourite was. . . I think it was the 5th season? The one with Takato and Jerry?
Some very serious scenes in that one, watching them on youtube apparently bits were cut out for american audiences because white kids are pussies.  :P Like Jerry's possession and nightmare, demonic puppets and undead mothers and whatnot.

If the good lord intended me to look everything up myself he wouldn't have even invented the internet.
I'm not looking it up, and I'm still awaiting an answer.  8)

'What is Cowboy Bepop about?'

KoutaKun

Cowboy Bebop revolves around a crew of bounty hunters living in the spaceship named Bebop. They are a team of bounty hunters who travel the Solar System trying to apprehend bounties. Jet Black is the owner of the Bebop who has partnered with Spike Spiegel for his diverse combat skills. During their travels, the Bebop ship gained new crew members such as Ein, Faye, and Edward.
Throughout the series Bebop crew members' pasts catch up with them, and the series regularly turns to the history of the main characters in flashbacks.The day-to-day life of the crew is also explored throughout the series.

cowboy bebop is awesome, and has an equally awesome soundtrack, that's all you really need to know. Oh, and the English dub is perfect.

I also love Hellsing... prefer the one that sticks to the manga, the story is just that much better.

And One Piece for insane bad guys... sooo colourful!!
Your wish is mine to twist.

Renwaldo

Huh, I would never guessed.
In the few snatches of art/fanart that I've seen of it, I assumed it was basic modern manga of a normal teen boy living out his normal teen life in a zany fashion.
It sounds way better than that though. XP
I think I'll give Cowboy Bepop a look.


I never really got into Hellsing, but I had a friend who read it for a while. Actually there aren't a lot of gothic or horror ones that I've tried. Except for Witch Hunter Robin when YTV played it in '05.

Silvermink

I like Higurashi, but will warn you ahead of time that it's really messed up.

Also Ebichu, which is also messed up but in a much more light-hearted way.
