I've watched a good portion of the list, and those that I haven't I have heard/seen. I am however surprised to not see a certain anime in the list... Princess Tutu. Real men watch Princess Tutu
>_>
<_<
Okay, that was a joke bc I have yet to seen it(I'm not a real man, I'm Beta) but i have heard only good things from those that have. I was surprised when an old school friend recommended it, so it is on a list of shows to watch but I am in no hurry

Also, I ought to post a list of my top favorite animes.. Not to be confused with my list of best animes(though similar yes)
:
1: Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
An anime I cannot recommend any more highly, and one of the first animes I was ever exposed to
2: Cowboy Bebop
Same as above, and certainly an anime that is a must watch given it's rep
3: Psycho Pass(Subbed)
With both seasons, this has risen to be an anime I can watch for the 14th time and still want more
4: Mushishi(+ Next Passage)
Calming, episodic, and just damn good. Not really great for gatherings, but a just reward after a long day at work :3
5: Trigun
Another classic, and while I wasn't crazy with the 2nd half, it has a perfect tone and character development.. also the movie was badass
6: Hellsing Ultimate
Gore, nazi vampires, big ass cannons.. and Alucard above all else, need I explain?
7: Kino's Journey
A good example of how a well written story without the need of an overlapping arc can be
8: Desert Punk
Vulgar humor I just love, well rounded characters, and memorable scenes, gotta love that [&@%!]
9: Death Parade
I've always been a fan of shows with darker tones, This is no different
10: Fate/ Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works
Animation that is so appealing you can literally see the money pouring out from every frame, need I say more

Honorable Mention: Watamote
While not notable in quality or some of its comedy, one cannot help but identify with the protagonist and her introvert ways

These are all series? :wat:

I don't think I've ever watched a full season/series of any Japanese animation, aside from maybe the old Pokemon series, and Captain Majid. (or Tsubasa or some such in Japanese or something)

These are more so movies, films, or in the case of the very first an actual studio than anime series. But yes, all the rest are actual series

I'm not a huge anime fan either, but I do appreciate most of what Miyazaki has made. Guy writes some interesting stories, and his animation style is incredible.

^^Do you actually live in Baltimore? If you do then I feel sorry for you because of everything that has happened and is still happening. [&@%!] in that city had literally hit the fan. Just like in the other city's that that has happened in.

I just hope that they can pull through without everyone dying and the whole city getting burned to the ground.

Yes I do, I kinda figured my last post implied that

And yeah, it's crazy. People are destroying their own hometown like it's goddamn Gotham city here.

A building was set on fire, and when the firefighters came, rioters ran up to the hose to slit it with knifes. Burning our own city to the ground... what a way to go out.

A friend of mine had a buddy who just bought a new car, it was razed to the ground a week after buying it.

I didn't know. Hell, as far as I knew you could have been just visiting or that you lived in a county that surrounds the city but you go there to shop. Like I do, I just do it in a different state. ;)

To be honest, I can't picture much "shopping" being done in that city right now.

Has anyone here played the racing games Torcs and Speed Dreams? I have both of them for Windows and I must say, they are some damn good games considering they were made by volunteers in their free time.

Both of them are released under the GPL license.

I'm far enough outside the city to not be directly affected, but still too near for comfort. Stay safe friend. Tonight's the first night of curfew, so we'll see if that does anything to help.
