Hello
Favorite Animes:
01. Fullmetal Alchemist - Bones
The Reason why me (and many others i presume) fell in love with anime. The Characters , the story , the style , the animation , everything with this anime is faultless and beyond brilliant its probaly not only one of the best animes ever created , if not the best, but one of the greatest things the world has ever created , yes thats a bit OTT but hell i dont care i love it.

02. Eureka Seven - Bones
This anime is beautiful , the story of young Renton and a Coralian girl named Eureka and their pursuit towards companionship with most of the world against them is simply outstanding to watch. 50 episodes of pure emotion from beginning to end , Eureka Seven is the second best thing Bones has ever produced ... and overtime may even become my favourite over FMA, we'll have to wait and see that movie.

03. Gilgamesh - Group TAC
From what I've Read Online not alot of people liked Gilgamesh and just as many dont even finish the series , I was glued from episode 1. Gilgamesh has a style that drew me in from the first title sequence. Its just beautiful to look at and combined with its classical piano soundtrack is truly an anime that doesnt come around too often. Gilgameash isnt very mainstream as far as anime goes but i think deserves at least a look from any anime fan. The ending is as bold as it is risky and may upset viewers at first who like myself have put in the dedication to watch to the end in a matter of a day or two but ive always wanted a series to take a leap and try an ending that may not be at all to the viewers liking but in turn make absolute complete sense to the story the series told. This series gets my highest recommendation , dont listen to the critics or indeed the masses in this case as you like me might just find a genuine classi.

04. Chrono Crusade - Gonzo
Never has an ending to any movie , tv series or anime touched me deeper than the ending to this , stunning. Its a sad ending and affected me for days afterwards and not to sound cheesy or anything but the end to this for me defines what human sacrifice is all about.

05. Bleach - Studio Pierrot
Watching and loving , i didnt think the huge fad animes would interest me that much, with the hundreds of episodes but this is the one that i can understand the fad , its nothing short of brilliant. It has the great characters and gives all the development for each of them. It has humour and fan service. It also is serious about the story it tells which i also like. Im hoping it wont last beyond 200+ episodes just because of how much money its gonna cost me.
as it stands

06. Midori Days - Studio Pierrot
I fancied something really different , something else anime can provide. I went searching and Stumbled upon 'Midori Days' and fell in love with it. Not a fantastic story or a deep one for that matter, but a nice one and one i've been compelled to rexperience and thats good enough for me.

07. Scrapped Princess - Bones
Scrapped Princess is a great anime, there is an underlying storyline in it though which is a bit unessasary but what was made i belive to try and give reason for some of the battle scenes. But with that aside Scrapped Princess gets ALL MY PRAISE because it had the ending....without the ending it did, this anime may of been a dissapointment. It gave the ending i wanted and did it in such away that i enjoyed getting what i assumed might happen.

08. Full Metal Panic - Gonzo
I really enjoyed FMP and will admit i only watched it because of the name at first lol ... while the series i found was always struggling to keep structure and was always on the edge of just falling apart , Full Metal Panic in the end is a great anime and a must see , the story is a weird one and perhaps not that strong and quite forgettable. But when all was said and done i was satisfied with Full Metal Panic and have since watched it again

09. RahXephon - Bones
Watched the first episode on Youtube and liked it , but if i like something i buy the set on DVD so i can support the Studio and as this is Bones im talking about i will be doing just that
-------------------------------------------------------------
10. Ghost In The Shell Standalone Complex- Production I.G
Im gonna be one of few and say i didnt and still dont like the films for this series for reasons ive never been able to figure out , as for the tv series ? well its pretty good i like the layout of the show alot more and enjoy quite abit. I did actually have this series on DVD but it was borrrowed and never returned by a friend , hopefully i'll get it again as well as the second season
-------------------------------------------------------------
In case you cant tell from my Top Anime list my favourite studio is Bones without hesitation , they tell stories like no other imo ... constanly balancing themselves between the beautiful to the funny and then the serious with ease.
Bones are the Best Studio EVA!!!
Followed Closely by Studio Pierrot
Also i would like to give recommendation to the Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged Series. Its one of the funniest things i've ever seen .... In America
Imagine if the Pokemon anime series was based on the sucessful trading card series the video...
