Was this a joke??? If you like Naruto, you probably haven't seen any good real anime that isn't dubbed.

Oh please. There's nothing wrong with Naruto. It's a good anime, but I DO, however, agree with your assessment of the English version. GAWD! Do we American's have to fuckin kill every anime that comes Stateside with cheesy voice acting?? "BELIEVE IT!!" Argh! Makes me want to choke someone every time I hear it.

Although, I have to say DBZ dubbing was excellent. That was some grade-A casting right there.

The ones I'm watching now are Bleach, Naruto Shippuuden, Macross Frontier and the Twelve Kingdoms (which is old, but I just picked up on it).

The hottest anime to me at the moment has to be Code Geass Rebellion R2 and Vampire Knight. Code Geass leaves me wanting for more at the end of every epi XDXD

I don't watch dubbed versions if I have a choice, my first anime was a subbed one on videotape and I like my art in their original state.

DBZ had multiple English dubbed versions, which one are we talking about?
I was lucky enough to haven only seen a few dubbed DBZ and I found the Canadian version less annoying to the ears, lol.

I am currently watching and enjoying these anime series right now:

Vampire Knight :genre - supernatural, bishounen, romance. I think the manga is better but I can't resist Mamoru Miyano (seiyuu for Zero Kiryuu, he's also the seiyuu for Light Yagami for those who watch Death Note). Love the OP as well!!!

Soul Eater : genre - shounen, supernatural, comedy. 2 thumbs up! Hilarious but Maka's voice sounds a bit stiff.. My fav character is Death the Kid (again, Mamoru Miyano is the seiyuu!! Wub )

Itazura na Kiss : genre - shoujo, comedy, romance, slice of life. For those who have read the manga, watched the live action drama, this time around they produced the anime. Pretty late isn't it? Watch it if you're into romance/shoujo. Shounen stay away! Laugh (The OP and ED are great too!)

Special A : genre - comedy, romance, high school. Average high school comedy with a bit of romance too. But the plot is kinda predictable even if you don't read the manga.

Hmm this thread was started last November so this is probably outdated but I'll post anyway.

About anime that is hot NOW, I'd suggest the ones I'm following:

The Tower of Druaga -Aegis of Uruk-
Amatsuki


They're both currently airing in Japan and are still below 10 episodes, so there's not that much to catch up on if you start watching now. To watch online, Crunchyroll has them subbed.
Druaga is supposedly a remake of a popular Japanese console RPG (which I haven't played) and I love the sense of humour in the scenes that serve as some sort of a parody of the game (in the 1st episode anyway).
Amatsuki is about two modern-day high school boys who get thrown back through time into the historical eras and there are demons, etc. Pretty typical I know, you'd have to watch it to enjoy it I guess, because I'm only giving the gyst of the anime. xD

I'm also watching another anime now that isn't new but it's amazing. The story, graphics, music, everything. Kanon 2006. Of the shoujo genre, and resonates a little of Love HIna, minus the crazy craziness. It's something like AIR TV (from the same studio, Key) but the story is more digestible.

NANA was suggested, and yeah the story is great! xDD But I prefer the manga much more to the anime.

None can match Dragon Ball or Sailor Moon but Death Note is very good i like it immensely. I don't like Naruto at all and yes your right the english voice actors should be hanged, burned or just fired. They suck because they don't take take it seriously, its like they are ashamed of doing it(idiots). Anyway no matter what or who, japanese voice-actors can not be matched, they're unique and unparalleled. They are the best there is. They are God of the of the anime and voice-acting(the ultimate, the supreme, the divine). Sorry for this rising into Heaven thing but i cant stand seeing anime in any other language than the original. Tongue silly me.

No advertising is allowed. If you want to sell something, go to animesuki or elsewhere.

Right now, Soul Eater has to be the most popular one.

--April 2008 Anime--

Currently watching
  • Amatsuki - This show is one I'm not sure if I'm going to continue watching as the story seems to be losing momentum. At only 13 episodes though I will probably stick with it to the end...
  • Itazura na Kiss - Though the animation is a little akward at times (being a shoujo anime this is understandable) I really like the characters so far in this anime. Even though the story is typical and overplayed this show still maintains a freshness that makes it somewhat enjoyable.
  • Soul Eater - Probably the best anime this season. I love the world that they created in this anime, top notch animation.

May continue watching at a later date
  • Nabari no Ou - Another show about ninjas in the modern day and age... I was hoping this one would be more of a comedy but it came of as trying to be a little too serious for my tastes. I still may give it another chance at a later date though...
  • Kurenai - nice balanced series all around; good music, voice acting, animation and an interesting story. I will probably download the rest of the episodes of this once it finishes airing.
  • Druaga no To: the Aegis of Uruk - I loved the comedy in the first episode but then as the series progressed the comedy started to die out and the show seems going towards trying to become a serious .hack//SIGN type anime. I may still give this one another chance in the future though.
  • Zettai Karen Children - Another show about children with superpowers. Seems to be sort of a parody on the genre though so I might give this series another look once it finishes.
  • Vampire Knight - I only skimmed through the first episode, but I liked what I saw. It looks like it could end up being a good anime.

Not going to continue watching
  • Special A
  • Toshokan Sensou - This seemed like it was going to be a rather boring anime after the first episode so I didn't give it much of a chance. The story is set some time in the future where the government is confiscating books and a special division was established to protect the books.
  • To Love-Ru
  • Kanokon
  • Da Capo II Second Season - why in the world did they make a sequel to this anime..?
  • Kamen no Maid Guy - the humor from the first episode quickly died off; overused predictable genre as well.
  • Wagaya no Oinari-sama
  • Kyouran Kazoku Nikki - This is usually the type of anime I would enjoy watching (being a parody comedy) but this series really didn't interest me after watching the first few episodes.

Heard good things about
  • Allison to Lillia
  • RD Sennou Chousashitsu
  • Kaiba - If you can get past the strange animation I've heard this one is really good.



Of all those Soul Eater is probably the only one I would consider purchasing on DVD if it was licensed. This really wasn't that great of a season in my opinion, even though many thought it was... Unsure
