    (In no particular order.)

    Ye olde series:
    - Elfen Lied
    - Berserk
    - Aishiteru ze Baby
    - Shingetsutan Tsukihime
    - FMP

    Currently airing:
    - Utawarerumono
    - Eureka 7
    - Zero no Tsukaima

    Now, I have to add that I already typed Cowboy Bebop in the list instead of FMP, but changed it after a little pondering. In my opinion Bebop is a better series, but when I think about it in retrospect, FMP probably matters more to me, even if it doesn't reach Bebop's level of quality. But then again I have a series like Aishiteru ze Baby there, so you can probably disregard anything I say...

    For the currently airing I placed Zero there instead of School Rumble 2nd season, because in the end despite SR's superior script writing and amazing level of quality I tend to be drawn more to coherent plots rather than individual episodes.

    My five favorite series that I've seen before would be :

    1. Gankutsuou
    2. Monster
    3. Elfen Lied
    4. Great Teacher Onizuka
    5. Gungrave

    I've yet to watch the anime of 'Berserk', however if it's as good as the manga, it would probably be second to third on that list. 'Speed Grapher' and 'Basilisk' are also some of my favorites.


    My three favorite series that I'm watching right now would be :

    1. Eureka seveN
    2. Utawarerumono
    3. School Rumble - Second Term

    I'm going to watch 'Planet ES' and 'Legend of the Galactic Heroes' next. I've heard good things about them, so they might be up on my list(s) soon.

    My top 5 are (no order):

    -Kimi Ga Nozumu Eien
    -Slayers (I'm considering all the series and movies at once, too hard to pick one season)
    -Kiddy Grade
    -Ghost in the Shell: SAC (1st and 2nd Gig)
    -Elfen Lied

    I considered many of the saga series as whole works, simply because I needed to save space on the list. I thought about adding Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha and Nanoha A's, but I'll have to wait for the third season to add that to the list. Other close calls were Cowboy Bebop, Neon Genesis Evangelion, School Rumble season 1, and either Hoshi no Koe or Beyond the Clouds. Aria is combined with the second season and is on my currently airing list.

    As for currently watching top 3 (no order):
    -Kaleido Star
    -ARIA (and -the Natural-)
    -Utawarerumono

    Zero no Tsukaima and SR Term 2 were close on the list, as was Bokura Ga Ita. It's hard to pick just three when you watch so many.

    strange enough, i didn't find any thread that was more than just "favorite current anime"... (that wasn't 2+ years old...) so i suppose this topic stays.

    and man, such a difficult question!, especially for favorite's of all time...

    From all the ones I've seen, the names that come to mind are (in no particular order):

    Cowboy Bebop
    Kenshin
    Gungrave
    Monster
    Bleach

    Honorable Mentions go to: FMA, Mushishi and Naruto

    As for the ones I'm currently watching, those I can quantify (as I'm only watching 5...):
    1. Eureka SeveN
    2. Zegapain
    3. Blood+ (yes, i am currently liking it more than)
    4. Utawarerumono
    5. Zeta Gundam (2nd time through it isn't as good...)

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Yup thanks. I just wanted to know some good anime's recently and what they think about it. We haven't had a thread like this for a while. And no point sticky-ing it. Because it will change from time to time.

    Top 5 Anime for me (No particular Order)
    1)One Piece
    2)Berserk
    3)Hajime No Ippo
    4)Hoshi No Koe (though doesn't quite count as a series)
    5)Azumanga Diaoh

    I've dropped Naruto from my top 5 every since the fillers started. Bastards

    Top 3 currently watchin.
    1) One Piece (as always)
    2) Utewaremono
    3) Honey and Clover 2.
