I think Japanese voices with subtitles are the best

[keja]

Why? I don't understand why anyone would like to read subtitles.

[qwertzuiop]

The japanese voices are just... better...

[keja]

But you don't understand what they're saying. And in many cases, the characters aren't Japanese.

[lunar_furor]

i actually agree w/ qboy in most anime

[keja]

Pfft, there's no reasoning with you weeaboos.

the bikes are rubbish

deathnote episode 20+ ruined that ... or somewhere around that

The story gets worse once L dies, however the episode where he does, in my opinion, is a very strong one, with the bells and stuff... Stupid N... And I HATE the ending...

What animes do you people here like?

I liked deathnote, that's the only anime I watched... Any similar recommendations?!...

I think Japanese voices with subtitles are the best

I agree, I'm used to subtitles here in Belgium any way...

Why? I don't understand why anyone would like to read subtitles.

Mostly to comprehend, also the translation is sometimes more clear then the spoken text...

But Keja, never break something down unless you've tried it...

[keja]

I have tried it. White people speaking With Japanese voices is just weird.

[qwertzuiop]

I could recommend FullMetal Alchemist Brotherhood and Bleach.

[lunar_furor]

While FMABH is good, and Bleach is usually good but has a lot of filler they aren't really similar. For that similar 'i'm a mastermind with power' I'd suggest Code Geass and If you need a place to watch it I went to blazinanime.com they are all there. I really enjoied that one. In season two though after episode 21 it gets wierd, but not bad.

The reason i say most japanese voices are better isn't because they are always good per se, but that sometimes I can't watch a dubbed anime with out wanting to shoot my self at how bad the actors are or how annoying their voices are. Example Voltron's Sven and the little kid. I do prefer to watch dubbed so I can focus on the show or play it in the background, but sometimes I just cant.

[qwertzuiop]

Also, you can watch the subbed versions about one day after they're aired in japan, otherwise you'd have to wait forever
I'd recommend animecrazy.net

The dubbed voices doesn't fit in. It ruins the asian effect.

[CX gamer]

I've watched 5 epic sodes of FMAB, but it just couldn't get a grip on me...
I can see why you like Code Geass, lunar... But it's not for me...
I'll try bleach somewhere before the 15th...

[keja]

The dubbed voices doesn't fit in. It ruins the asian effect.

The Asian effect of what? What is typically Asian about anime, asode from the continent it was produced in?

[lunar_furor]

If bleach doesn't work out Idk about similar to DN but I also enjoyed Outlaw Star, Rurouni Kenshin, Samurai Champloo, I'm not sure what kind of show's your into really lol.

[CX gamer]

Yeah... I guess it's personal for everyone... But I do not demand it to be anime...

[keja]

Uh... I can't think of anything like Deathnote or w/e... I should ask my blackanese friend (he's mixed race really but he's too dark to be wapanese and he likes the word Otaku) to see if he knows anything you might like. He knows a lot of weird stuff though, like Card Captors and Sailor Moon...

[assdef]

I want to understand what is being discussed in this post, I really do. But I have no idea what is being talked about. Other than to say one of my favorite PC games from when I was younger was Commander Keen. Anyone? Anyone?

[DomTar275]

Gaaaah, animeeee. <3

I really like DN, Sailor Moon, Chobits (a romantic comedy), Ruroni Kenshin, Gundam Wing (if anyone counts that?), Tenchi Muyo, and When Cicadas Cry (This one is really good if you like a good horror.)


As for anything being similar to DN, I'd like to say that it's one of a kind, but im sure there's something else out there similar to it...I just don't know what it could be.

[qwertzuiop]

Thanks for the list, I'll look at them
