* This series [[Needs More Love|hardly ever gets talked about]], which is a true shame...but hands down one of the best animes I've ever seen is ''[[Cyborg 009]]''. The fact they kept remaking this series three times AND a movie really shows how much Japan loved it. And I was so happy to see it hit the states back when [[Toonami]] was still around. Sadly that was short lived too...:'( And they haven't made any dvds to be released for the 2001 series, that's my biggest heart break. But you can still find episodes circulating around Youtube and other parts of the net. Cyborg009 has so many loveable characters, a great plot, a unique art style, and special mention goes to the opening and credit songs of the series, the music is downright beatiful! Look them up on youtube, "What's the Justice" and "Genesis of Next". The intro alone has beautiful and surreal images. It is a very under-rated series in the West and it deserves more attention than it gets :(
Line 379:
* No love for [[S-Cry-ed]]? Seriously? It was just as hotblooded as [[Gurren Lagann]] and it's not mentioned yet? The opening theme song sold the series for me from the get-go. Both the anime and the manga versions of scryed were just awesome. Just so awesome, hotblooded and so full of yelling!
* Shock. Shock. Where is ''[[Hikaru no Go]]''? This is the series that makes the least audience-friendly board game in the world DRAMATIC. Brilliantly developed characters, [[Shown Their Work|extensive research]] on the actual game (most board positions are from actual games between pros!), and so realistic in depiction that you forget the essentially supernatural premise. Perhaps the best part is the process of character maturation, both in art and personality, as the story progresses. No series does growing up better than Hikaru no Go. Never was I more overjoyed than the day I discovered the additional manga arc—though I'd never have guessed, since the anime ends so naturally (unlike another beloved series, ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'').
** ''[[Hikaru no Go]]'' is a story about a board game, but more importantly, it is the story of those who play it. It is about growth, of love, of loss, of losing, and standing to fight again. It is about how the people in your life help you grow, and vice versa. It is about people who choose to dedicate their lives to something larger than them, to a goal they may never reach, and truly, their passion is a sight to behold. The characters are absolutely believable, and the relationships depicted were just incredible. Just...I really don't know how to explain it, be it Sai and Hikaru's relationship, Akira and Hikaru's relationship...what they mean to each other, the way they cherish each other, why they cherish each other...it all transcends the written word. You feel with them, you feel for them, I loved these characters in a way I never have again. And this troper is not exaggerating when she says that writing this made me realise ''just how much'' this series means to me, just how much it has changed my life, and even then she still feels this description is grossly inadequate. I encourage anyone who can do a better job to please step in and tell everyone ''why we love this series so freaking much!''...so anyway, highly recommended.
* Just wanted to throw out my love for ''[[
* ''[[Sola]]'' is one of this troper's personal favorite anime. The art design and backgrounds of the show are simply gorgeous, as I watch, I constantly end up thinking that they belong in an art museum. The characters are not only memorable, but quite believable. The soundtrack, while simple, is also memorable (I re-watched the series a year after I first saw it and could recall most of the OST). Couple that with a twisting plot, and some truly heartwarming and endearing moments, in only 13 episodes, this is a little series that is truly something great. That much being said, practically no one has seen this series, and although Bandai licenced it, it sadly won't be getting a dub. I'm sure there's a lot of people who just brush it aside as a hentai game adaptation (which it's not), but I'd recommend it to anyone who's just looking for a good story with strong production values all around.
* Munto is a great anime which needs more love here. Its only 9 episodes long and yet has such a good plot and interesting characters. The art is just beautiful and the action scenes amazing. The title character is also pretty hot and this troper is ashamed to admit she squees every time he and the heroine are together as they just go together so well. It has a bit of everything, fantasy, action, comedy, drama, and romance.
* [[Vampire Princess Miyu]] deserves a mention. The anime is very well done with watercolor backgrounds and characters that look Japanese, but the plot is [[Sailor Moon]] meets Hellsing. The shinma keep getting darkerandedgier every episode, pulling [[One-Winged Angel]] after [[One-Winged Angel]]. The plot is episodic, so you can watch it in any order, and the English dub is extremely well done.
Line 492:
* This troper is no newbie in anime and manga, so he knows high school romance mangas very well, but no other manga has touched this troper heart as much as [[GE - Good Ending]], lets see, it works with common tropes and stories and gives them a twist to keep you entertained? Check, it includes very human and relatable characters? Check, you can actually say: "That same thing happened to me" many times? Check, it has MANY cute and beautiful moments? Check, a great artwork? Check, I dont get tired of saying it, [[GE - Good Ending]] is simply great.
