    I watched:

    Ranma 1/2 - One of the best animes evar imo
    Elvenlied - Was okay
    Death Note - Loved the first part, hated the second one
    InuYasha - Loving it as much as Ranma (currently waiting for Final Act)
    Pokémon - I will watch the episodes that I never saw since I was a kid.
    Digimon - Vague memories
    Sailer Moon - Vague memories
    Yi-Gi-Oh - Vague memories
    Kirby - Liked the Wii Channel episodes.
    Fushigi Yuugi - Great one. I liked the ending.

    Currently:

    Fushigi Yuugi (Currently watching the OVA's)
    Samurai Champloo - is ok
    Fairy Tail - Amazingly great

    So which anime do you guys suggest?
    (Big subject change, you can also post animes that you suggest for other people.)

    Obviously Code Geass.

    Also, the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. It seems like the gold standard when it comes to anime.
    Everyone has watched it. And everyone has said it's good.

    After that, I'd say Full Metal Panic (all three).

    I'm not a huge fan of mecha combat, but Code Geass and FMP both did it nicely. I especially liked the specialized units, in that they were unique and largely outclassed the regular units. If they made either of these franchises into a strategy RPG, I would buy it.

    There's also Durarara!! which was pretty good. I know I gave it a 7 on MAL, but it had enough twists to keep me glued to my seat. I should probably re-evaluate that score.

    Now for more obscure shit: (and by obscure, I mean not dubbed in English obscure)
    Puella Magi Madoka Magica
    The World God Only Knows (I and II)
    Valkyria Chronicles (will probably need to play the game to appreciate it)

    Don't forget the classics!

    Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann - Basically a show about how f*cking awesome it is to be a man... RAMPED UP TO THE MAX!!
    Cowboy Bebop - Speaks for itself
    Trigun - Its like Cowboy Bebop
    Full Metal Alchemist (Both Versions) - okay its not REALLY a classic but its an awesome show nonetheless.

    I like animes such as Ranma and InuYasha. Where great quests happen and has some funny elements.
    Did you ever watch Ranma or InuYasha?

    Just added another bookmark.

    PS: I don't watch subs. Not that I don't like the Japanse language or can't read English fast but I can't stand when I can't understand the voice actors

    Well I can't stand some of the English dubs because they're so poorly done...
    So basically, pick your poison.

    The dubs for Cowboy Bebop and Full metal Alchemist are almost the same quality, maybe even better IMHO, than the subs.
