they are all listed on animenfo. not that i care about their ratings but mostly high 9s and 8s..

Some series have alternative titles
Boukyaku no Senritsu = Melody of Oblivion
Hikari to Mizu no Daphne = Daphne in the Brilliant blue
Kono Minikuku mo Utsukushii Sekai = This ugly and beautiful world
Hit wo Nerae! = Smash hit
Tsukuyomi = Moonphase

maybe kono mini is controversial since i am very partial to mahoromatic art/CV and hikari+akari means 200% moe. but otherwise all those shows i listed there are superb.

 

[dc]

moe. lol.

lol damn i really like anime, but a lot of the ones you've mentioned, I haven't heard of them. It seems that you're into that loveydovey goofball anime hehe. I'm more into the sci fi aspect of anime. I got into anime for its creativity w/ action scenes.

and i like some comedy anime like GTO, since you can't make funny faces in real life like that ahahaha

anyways, does someone have the rest of standalonecomplex? subbers quit after 19.
Howabout for wolf's rain? subbers quit after 18 or 19 on that one as well. sigh.

I refused to see it dubbed in CTN.

the only sci-fi i have on my list would be
4.Boukyaku no Senretsu
5.Daphne in the Brilliant Blue
12.Mai-HiME**
funny how i started liking Mai-HiME after watching eps4 where they replaced action scenes with school life. personally i feel many stop looking further for other series and settle at stuff like naruto and full metal alchemist since thats what everyone else here is watching. its quite different in japan AFAIK, i will try to look up that character popularity chart from 2003 if i get a chance anyway, my point is there are tons of good shows you are missing out on. again, about half of these shows get better ratings on animenfo than that of naruto if that means anything.

and i like some comedy anime like GTO, since you can't make funny faces in real life like that ahahaha

then you should dig my list... about 7 of them would be classified as mainly comedy

anyways, does someone have the rest of standalonecomplex? subbers quit after 19.

dubs = yuck >.< as for the first season, i have it all... cant bring myself to watch it tho, theres so much more other stuff i need to watch...
