Anyone watch Anime?

[Bigmac]

I've just started getting into watching anime and some are pretty good but I'm clueless when picking what to watch as most titles are in Japanese. I've watched Corpse Party OVA, High School DxD and Another, all were very good but I'm looking for others to watch.

Corpse Party is a horror where 9 people get pulled into another closed off world where they are hunted by ghosts while trying to find a way back home.

High School DxD is about a high school student who is killed by a fallen angel but is reborn as a devil and has to adjust to living in an Angel, Fallen Angel, Devil world. He's also a massive pervert.

Another is a high school horror where a transfer student unknowingly triggers a curse that kills fellow classmates and their relatives and tries to find out what's going on and how to stop it.

Does anyone watch anime and can recommend me some to watch that are similar in genre, mainly horror and supernatural?

Was quiet a long time ago since i watched any anime's, though was never into these supernatural ones, closest one would be Sailor Moon.

 

[Scouse]

Not horror or supernatural tbh.

Cowboy Bebop for westernised loveliness. Akira for 80's aceness. Evangelion (the newest incarnation - 1.11, 2.22 etc. - still not finished making it). Meh, I know @ECA likes it. I'm off dahn sarth in a couple of weeks to see my Anime guru so I'll get a list for ya

heh I've just been watching some stuff, not particularly in your genre, but hey ho in no particular order:

Cowboy Bebop
Space Battleship Yamato
Vampire Hunter D
Afro Samurai (and Resurrection)
Blade of the Immortal
HellSing (early ones have Alucard as more fun-loving imo, the "new" ones have him as a bit of a harsh cunt tbh)
Ninja Scroll (NOT the ova but the series)

I watch a few shows per season.

Currently airing that fits your criteria would be Tokyo Ghoul.
It's sort of a sentient zombies inhabiting tokyo surviving amongst humans kinda vibe from the zombie POV.

Standard film list from everyone ever:

Akira
Ghost In The Shell ( Innocence is the 2nd film , Stand alone complex is a tv series ).
Ninja Scroll
Afrosamurai ( soundtrack by the wutang clan, voiced by Samuel L Jackson )
Redline

Series:

Man there's so fucking many. But if you want supernatural horror shit specifically then give these a try - in order of awesome+relevant to your interests:

Elfen Lied
Shinsekai Yori
Berserk ( has supernatural elements, and they appear more prominently later ).
Hellsing ( prefer tv series to ultimate, but there you go, some people prefer ultimate ).
Higurashi
Ghost Hunt

Death Note

 

[caLLous]

I've only really watched the "mainstream" ones (Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Afrosamurai) up til now but it's something I definitely want to get more into. I have the Hayao Miyazaki collection on Blu-ray and fully intend to work through it when I have the time. But that's going to need a lot of time.

 

[~Latency~]

seriously everyone should watch attack on titan, dubbed

 

[ECA]

Hawkwind and Latency should be ashamed of themselves.

 

[Zarjazz]

dubbed

Heathen! I can count on 1 hand the number of times a dub was better than the original.

 

[~Latency~]

seriously watch the subbed attack on titan, it's worse i've seen both

 

[~Latency~]

also i second death note -_- hawkwind should be ashamed of NOTHING!

 

[Wij]

You want Hentai right?

 

[Embattle]

Personally in MP4 I've got:

Akira
Castle in the Sky
Fist of the North Star
Ghost in the Shell (SAC 1 & 2 + 3 Movies)
The Girl who Leapt through Time
Nausicaa of the Valley of the wind
Princess Mononoke
Project A-ko (1-4)
Spirited Away

Pre Disc I used to have one called Guyver on VHS.

 

[Wij]

Fist of the North Star is really Hokuto No Ken. You can find all 154 eps subbed and uncensored.

Fist of the North Star is really Hokuto No Ken. You can find all 154 eps subbed and uncensored.

Worth it? 154 episodes makes it feel like it's for kids - a bit like Thundercats.

 

[Embattle]

Mine is the movie anime, certainly isn't for kids.

 

[Wij]

Worth it?

Are you kidding? It is ALL!

Long time ago, around the akira/gits era i guess.

I think still the best one i watched was A-ko, just because it was completely bonkers

 

[Chosen]

Hunter x Hunter(2011 remake) is something I'd strongly recommend!

"Ease my roneriness!"

TV series is better though (over the whole thing, there are many shit eps along the way.)

 

[Wij]

Although, the UK film version had the best ending. Thanks for the reminder Emb

Death Note

Death Note is really tense actually, definitely recommended. Ghost in the shell, movies, series etc, brilliant. Tense, thrilling and lots of plot-twisting and ass-kicking. Fate Stay Night as well.

 

[Bigmac]

Plot is a must or I'll just lose interest. Almost done with Ghost Hunt, its not as good as the previous ones I've watched but its ok. I'm going to try Death Note or Attack on Titan next.

Animatrix for you my son..
I wish they'd carried it on.

 

[Embattle]

While not the same sort of anime I've been enjoying Avatar the Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra recently.
