I haven't really watched too much anime, I've seen some here nor there that I liked and disliked, but I wouldn't mind finding some more good qaulity anime to check out. So far, I've found 3 Anime shows that I like. They are in no particular order: Ruroni Kenshin, Rnama 1/2, and The B*st*rd. Based on these shows that I like, can you suggest some others that you think I would enjoy? Thanks.

I like Teacher Onizuka. I mean I don't know if I spelled it right. But it was quite good. Bleach is good too. Have a great day! (^^,)

Hi Filmbuff! Teacher Onizuka or "Great teacher Onizuka " or also known as "GTO" is about a young rebellious man who wanted to be a teacher. There is also a live version of it, called "GTO live". Luckily, even if he doesn't look that brilliant sometimes, he passed his board exam. And got a job at a public school. He is quite a coward, because he can't express his feelings for one of his co-teacher. But he is good to protect her. His students are notorious trouble makers, with no chances of graduating. But because of his uncommon ways, he will soon win his students and made them good law abiding students. ~~LOL And he is hilarious when he tries to stop his flirty students to like him. "Gokusen" is pretty much the same, but the teacher is a woman, and she comes from a family of "yakuza". I hope I have describe it well. But it's better to watch it really, I may have missed things. I hope you'll like them. Have a great day! (^^,)

Thanks so much for the follow up aphroditei_5270, I really appreciate the effort you went to in order to explain it to me. Both of those sound really cool. I like the humor aspect of the one, and the yakuza element in the other. Just out of curiousity are they in english or subtitled? Thanks again.

I've never heard about either of those. What are they about? I did like Akira, and Fist of the Northstar...not sure if that qualifies as "old school" or not though. I absolutely love Ranma 1/2, that show is so funny. Thanks for the suggestions lemuelskee and welcome to mylot.

Well then. If you like Kenshin, Samurai Deeper Kyo is good. Berserk is also good, but a little higher on the blood/gore tables. I have too many favourites to count. :p

How about Fist of the Blue Sky, Gungrave, Saint Seiya: Hades Arc, Naruto: Shippuden or better yet....the Fist of the North Star : Raoh Den Edition, a remake of an old series.

I have seen the First of the Northstar, its the original I think, they used to have it on Showtime a lot, I guess it slipped my mind. It was a very good show. I've seen the movie Akira which was pretty good as well. Thanks for the suggestions and your response.
