What are your absolute most favorite animes?  

Well, I dont like animes that are too long, unless I have the ENTIRE series and I can take the time to watch the chapters and not depend so much on the network's bidding.
Now, for 20 years my country has had wonderful anime shows come along and we have gladly 2 to 3 generations that follow anime shows. So, I would have to split the 5 because of all times, I have plenty of favorites but Ill say it like this:#5 Candy Candy (first anime I saw that I liked when I was a kid)
#4 Astroboy (the old version, because it made more sense than the new one)
#3 Mazinger, Mazinger Z (first mecha I ever saw that got to my liking)
#2 Doraemon (very funny)
#1 The Little Prince (short version)
Now as an adult it would be:At #5 Ghost in the Shell (it was my first anime that was different from my child hood ones and got to like)
#4 Jigoku Shuojo (aka Hell Girl, loved the story line in the sense of morbid justice)
#3 Rurouni Kenshin (awesome story and killer characters.
#2 GTO (Great Teacher Onizuka.. yeah, it looks old but it aint and I wish teachers were more like that)
#1 Cosplay Complex (short, funny, hilarious, and girly.. remind me of old times)
