Cowboy Bebop (TV) | Masterpiece | Great music, fluid animation, kick-ass characters, cool stories, space travel, and Steve Blum. What ISN'T to like about one of the most stylish and hip anime ever? |
Cowboy Bebop: The Movie | Excellent | |
Flame of Recca (TV) | Decent | A decent shonen show with lots of magical powers and acceptable animation. Starts to drag a bit during the latter half (which is almost all tournament fighting). Still better than some shonen today. |
Grenadier (TV) | | |
Magic Knight Rayearth (TV) | Good | |
Magic Knight Rayearth 2 (TV) | Good | |
Martian Successor Nadesico (TV) | Very good | |
Najica Blitz Tactics (TV) | Good | It won't change your life, but at least it has a genuine story unlike some fan service shows, and the overabundance of panties can be rather comical. The sexy, mature lead doesn't hurt, either. |
Neon Genesis Evangelion (TV) | Masterpiece | One of the most thought-provoking, moving, controversial, beautiful, well-written, genre-defying series of all time. What more needs to be said? |
Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death & Rebirth (movie) | Not really good | Unfortunately, this movie was completely unnecessary because all it did was recap the TV series in Cliff Notes-style and threw a half-hour teaser for the REAL movie in at the end. They should have just went straight to releasing EoE and skipped this. |
Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion (movie) | Masterpiece | The bizarre and totally fitting conclusion to an epic anime saga. Just don't forget your antidepressants. |
Ninja Scroll (movie) | Excellent | |
Noir (TV) | Very good | A 100% serious anime with believable criminal elements and no supernatural themes whatsoever? It CAN be done! Also, very respectable dub work. If only there'd been a French dub... |
Outlaw Star (TV) | | |
RahXephon (TV) | Masterpiece | Wow. Just wow. A series that matches -- and in several ways exceeds -- the expectations placed upon the cerebral mecha genre by Evangelion. It's a love story, a mecha series, and a mind-bending melodrama all in one, masterfully executed, intelligently plotted, and satisfying all the way to the end. If you've seen Evangelion, then you MUST see this as well. |
Sorcerer Hunters (TV) | | |
Tenjho Tenge (TV) | | |
(The) Vision of Escaflowne (TV) | Masterpiece | A touching, well-crafted, beautifully told tale of war, the struggles within the human heart, and fighting against fate, set against a stunning and fully-realized fantasy world. An absolute must for any true anime fan's collection. |
