Wala, KazeHydra, you guys need to hang out in #tladt on Rizon so we can chat more and don't clog up this thread with UCSD banter.  Rizon is the sacred land of fansubs so if you guys are true anime fans you'd hang out on that server anyway! | ||

Here's the list of stuff i've watched so far. Its small and I can't remember it all so any suggestions you have would be appreciated. + Show Spoiler + I'll try to list them in order of my favorite. 1.Code Geass (this was the anime that got me into anime I really enjoyed it and it easily holds its place. 2. Clannad ( This was really good. I didn't know what to expect from it but it was alot more comedy than I originally thought. Waiting for the After Story dub ) 3. School Rumble ( I absolutely LOVED this series. While its main focus is comedy - which i found great - the thing that kept me attached to this series was the story and character development. I really fell for the characters and fell that they somewhat realistically developed - at least the 4 main ones. I enjoyed but didn't much care for the side characters and blew thru the filler to get back to the story. I was so sad to find no third season . 4. Gurren Lagann (I was hesitant at first but the farther you get into it the more you'll find out that there's more than meets the eye.) 5. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya ( I really enjoyed this. Liked the story/characters/twists. I found it pretty well build and I enjoyed the comedy. Still need to watch the second season and movie though. 6. The Girl Who Leapt Through Time ( This also was a surprise. I was completely blind sided by the twists and came out of it very happy.) 7. Kaze no Yojimbo (really loved the story. still need to finish.) 8. Evangelion (ending keeps it low) 9. Lucky Star (seen the debate but I liked it. I can agree that some of the jokes were funny especially about the food in the first few episodes but overall i did enjoy It. 10. Cowboy Bebop (its only so low because i'm only 5 episodes in but i'm sure it'll be higher) I need to think about where I placed these series if they deserve to be in my top so they're in no particular order: Samurai Seven Samurai Champloo (I FORGOT about this one!!!!! hmmm i'm not sure where to put it but prolly in my top five. I really enjoyed it!) FMA ( Forgot this one too!!! definitely in my top 10!) (I love remember good anime.) Eureka Seven ( Hate the three baby kids!) Naruto Summer Wars (also really enjoyed this felt it was better the second time through) Grave of Fireflies (depressing) Spiral (in accent: who are the blade children? don't know they ended midway in the manga and didn't attempt to wrap it up.) Origins Spirits of the Past Skycrawlers ( Great animation, crappy story-seriously the planes looked incredibly good) 5 Centimeters per Second ( Very good animation and drawing. pretty good story too.) The Places Promised In Our Past (wasn't expecting it to turn out how it did!) Trigun (Still watching) Galaxy Railways (started) Gundam 00 (need to watch movie) Gundam Wing Gundam Seed and Seed Destiny Dragon Ball Z hmmmm honestly there feels like there's 10 or so more i'm forgetting i'll post them when I remember. | ||

Also, there is actually a third season of School Rumble, but it's only two episodes and isn't that good.  Proud owner of all of that great series on DVD  Edit: I think the After Story dub is out in NA as well. | ||

A true amalgamation of the two. | ||

Also, there is actually a third season of School Rumble, but it's only two episodes and isn't that good. Proud owner of all of that great series on DVD that actually wasn't the third season unfortunately at was pretty much a summary and the last two pictures. originally they were making a third season but for some reason decided to scrap it. :-/ lol that video of clannad was funny I might have to get it earlier. I keep hearing about School Days so I think i'll check it out. My anime source is very limited to local stuff so I know i haven't even come close to touching all the great stuff. | ||

Otherwise, I doubt it was worth it. | ||

This is what happens when dubbers try to translate honorifics or just japanese mannerisms in general. No one calls their brother big brother "big bother" there is no Nii-san in English! | ||

I'm glad we got some Minko development in these last two episodes. Now I know that she's not just some bitch. Also I hate how drill girl (Yuina I think) is so incredibly hawt but annoying. Damn you P.A. Works T_T IMO: Nako>Heron>Minko>=Yuina>Tomoe>Ohana | ||

Yeah, there a quiet a few good dubs. Off the top of my head, FMA, DBZ, Yu Yu Hakusho, Robotech (if you consider it a dub lol), Escaflowne, Cowboy Bebop, Gundam SEED (although they did butcher tons of voices in Destiny, so I don't count that one), Berserk, etc. | ||
