Trigun Rocks!

I am in the 40's as far as episodes for Bleach go and I was amazed by the sheer volume of characters they introduced in the 30's.

My brother and I were watching it and drinking slurpees and there is one episode where I think its Ryou who is talking to Tatsuki and asks, "How can Orihime eat so much and not get fat?" and Tasuki says, "It all goes to her breasts."

We spent the next 15 minutes cleaning slurpee off the carpet. [ROFL]

Just google "Dattebayo".
thx for the link but I go to:
http://www.bleachportal.net/bleach/multimedia/direct_episodes

For my bleach episodes, its direct download instead of torrent, but its quite fast and they just ask you to download 1 episode at a time.

I enjoyed Inuyasha MUCH MUCH more in Japanese, I can't stand it in English. I keep hearing Gary from pokemon whenever Inuyasha speaks.

Japanese just sounds more expressive for the medium of anime.

Not all anime sounds better in Japanese. I like Big O better in English. I think Gundam Wing was amazing cast and acted for the voicing. Vash for Trigun was fantastic, and I don't think I'd like the show half as much if not for the VA in that show in the english version. Yu Yu Hakusho I like better in english too. The personalities of the characters comes through better with the english actors.

FMA I can't watch in English. It's missing a ton of the emotion that you get from it in Japanese.

Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Ninja Scroll, Spirited Away, Broken Saints, Ghost in the Shell 2, Metropolis, Steamboy, Appleseed and SIN (not to be confused with sin city)?

Those are all really good some are more for the mind than for the visual but they all fit nicely in the anime scope.

I second Wolf's Rain. In fact, I'm listening to the second Wolf's Rain soundtrack right now. The premise: the world is dying and most of humanity lives in domed cities. Wolves (thought extinct) have developed the ability to appear as human. There is a legend that only wolves can find Paradise. The white wolf Kiba and his friends set out to do just that, with the help of the flower girl Cheza.

I like most series that aren't filled with tons of filler and go for 50+ episodes with stupid fighting.

That x's out Naruto, Inuyasha, DBZ...probably gundam but never seen it... [Wink]

Wolf's Rain is alright, love the music at least.

Gundam Seed has absolutely no filler (except for 2 or so recap episodes, which have a little extra content), I don't think I've seen all of any of the other Gundams.

Gundam Seed (and its sequel, Gundam Seed: Destiny) sure have a lot of flashbacks though! But they're still good series.

And Gundam series aren't long and drawn out with a lot of filler and pointless fighting. Most are character-driven, filled with political intrigue, and they range in length from 39 episodes to 50. Gundam is original (as in, not based on a manga), so there's no need for filler and such.

Gundam Seed's best point IMHO is that the Gundams are simply normal mobile suits with suped up weapons/thrusters and a awesome OS (probly a Mac with a Linux Dash ^^) and it takes either A) Skill or B) a even more awesome OS to compensate you your crappy skills not to get shot down. In Gundam Wing the Gundams were made from a special alloy called Gundamium which amde em nigh' on invinceble.
