Default Can't Decide What to Watch Next? Post Here!

This is NOT a thread to ask for random anime recommendations. For recommendations, please use the Anime Recommendation Database. :)

However, if you've already got a list of anime you want to watch next but can't decide which one to watch first, then let the next person to post in this thread decide for you! Basically you post a selection of anime and ask them to put them in viewing order OR you can offer a selection and ask the next poster to choose one. Remember, whatever the next poster chooses, you have to stick to it!

What movie should I watch first: 5cm Per Second or Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete?

Finally, got this damn thread to work. >_<

As for those movies they both have their upsides. Though it really depends on what type of mood your in whether it be an action fighting mood or a slower down to earth anime.

Looking at your top 5 I would say go for 5cm Per Second first.

Now as for me I have no idea of what to watch next. A few of the anime I'm looking into are: Full Metal Panic!, Xam'd: Lost Memories, Bakuretsu Tenshi, and GANTZ.

Any suggestions on which to watch next?

Thanks rock! 5cm tomorrow it is, then. At least I'm out of this indecisive rut. :)

Xam'd is awesome

Full Metal Panic is also a good one, but hardly as good as xam'd xD

Xam'd by a long shot is the best thing you have listed there.

Wow, was that 20 minutes of pure trial and error? It's really odd that this is the first time the issue has come up, considering how loose it was being with the autolinking.

Anyway, I'd say go with FMP if you want something simple, Xam'd if you want something that's generally better but may make your head hurt. (it's one of those shows where they don't really bother to explain anything)

With Xam'd, they don't explain everything, they leave most of it up to the viewer. You have to think when watching Xam'd, but not a lot. It's not like watching Lain, or Paranoia Agent, or any other mind fuck, they just don't baby you.

True, it's not a mindscrew or anything, but there is a definite lack of basic background information on the world it takes place in. It takes a while to get even a vague understanding of it, and since pretty much all you ever have to go on are brief lines/implications/mentions intermixed in conversations about other things, if you miss those particular details or forget them it's even harder. Not that you need to understand everything about the world to more or less know what's going on or to enjoy the series, but it can be kinda annoying.
