I would definitely go with Monster its not like many of the ones you've seen but after a few eps you get hooked and I also second Hunter X Hunter.
You must have watched the One Piece dub. Don't. It's a mass of shit. Watch the subs and you'll see why it's badass.
One Piece is one of those anime series where the longer you stick with it, the greater the payoff. How many eps did you watch before you quit? If it's less than 20 then you should try it again.
(Good reminders, Bud)
You may also want to check out Air Master and Ikkitousen. Both of them are street brawling series. They's older titles, so they don't look shiny and polished, but definitely worth a look judging from your list. Air Master has some of the most brutal street fights without excessive amounts of blood (there is considerably little for how violent the fights are portrayed).
Since you did like Suzuka (I'm assuming Shuzuka = Suzuka), you may also want to look into Kimagure Orange Road. It is an old title (80's), and probably would be pretty hard to find, but it's got a very similar style to the story.
Of the new series, you may want to try out Himawari! It just started, so none of us know how it will turn out, but it comes off to me as a Fumoffu meets Naruto.
My lil sis has been watching One Piece but I just can't get into it either - to each his own I guess. And yeah, I do kinda wanna see Kurosawa's stuff too but might have to do that later on...heh, reminds me of how my mom and I used to watch The Magnificent Seven...still dunno why they took that show off the air, I thought it was good. Now I know where it came from tho.
"I reject your reality and substitute my own."
You might like GetBackers, esp if you liked s-Cry-ed, though I haven't seen it all so I can't vouch for it completely. Might as well throw in Inuyasha for fun. Neither is as extravagent as some of these other suggestions, but popularity is often a good sign. If you can stand the girls My Hime is good , and definately Ghost in the Shell
As to One Piece, whatever they did to it for the dub I can't imagine how this show is so popular with so many in subbed form, how much could they change a good show and make it as look as bad as the One Piece dub looks and still have something to show? The dub tends to hold my interest when I see it, but it also sucks and makes me wish anything else I'd willingly watch were on.
Well in defence of one piece I'll name a few of the changes done for the dub. Please note the dub is a horrible piece of garbage that is beyond redemption while post Buggy the Dub is a very good series.
1:First ALL of the voices are just plain terrible in the dub to the1 point of wanting to rip your ears off.
2:Changing the Marines guns to super soakers and popguns and calling them the Navy.
3: Renaming Zoro to Zolo and Luffy D Monkey to Loofy D Monkey.
4: Changing sanji's cigarette into a lollypop and Smoker having his cigars removed entirely while they leave the smoke and nake him Chaser.
5: removing all of the blood and destroying basically every fight scene as a result.
The series is definatly odd but its about as much a kids show as Hunter X Hunter and despite how they look in general they are very adult.
If you watch Getbackers abort viewing at 26 while the show is still good and do not finish it.
Also try out Fate/Stay Night you would almost definatly enjoy it and its still running.
What the fuck! It isn't anymore "good if you are 5 years old" than Naruto is..I aint watching One peice.. Have tried before but failed... It's so... so... so good if you are 5 years old.. I just think it aint good, have tried, but sorry!
Give it another try.
I had to watch like 10 eps and listen to several openings to really get obsessed with it.
Yupp I agree, naruto have become so unmature and silly these last 20 eps so it's comparable to the eps of One peice I saw.
But It hasn't been like that before, I remember Naruto when it was a great show, when the eps had meaning and intension, not rasenganing nuddles in a cook off..
But as I said, one peice aint my thing, sorry girls and lads, it's just like that!
But I want to thank you, I will have a look at these and perhaps they will catch my interest..
By the way Aint no good mecha series in the near future, like gundam, macross or summtin?
lol
Oh. I guess we all totally neglected mecha. You seemed to focus more on the ninja/martial arts/fighting and other shonen series like that.
The only recent mecha of any decent quality as far as I'm concerned is Eureka 7. It isn't constant use of it mind you, there's a lot more character development and other plotlines. The mecha in it seems more like a side story, its there, but the focus is not on it all the time.
Definitely worth the watch though, an excellent series.
You could also try the 13 eps series Jinki:Extend from a year or two back but it's fairly mediocre. I enjoyed it, but there are better series out there.
Mecha shows have sucked or not existed for quite a while now so there is really nothing new to offer. If you want Macros you have Macross Zero but thats only 5 extended episodes given the art in it is great but its just the same old plot wise.
Gundam Seed Destiny was a trainwreck and if you liked that you might like Eureka 7 as stated, but thats about all I can manage that isn't on your list already. Unless you want random transformers series or dubbed Power Rangers stuff which is rather unlikely.
No power rangers and transformers for me!
I will check out this Eureka 7!
Thanks once more!
Baccano was great
i was suggesed to ask here
looking for a anime headline.. it was shown on CR a year or 2 ago..
it started with the main char coming and killing a evil king to get a kingdom, he had 2 companions with him, one was a dude and oder a was a woman who was entertaining the king..
so after they get the kingdim they start invading oder kingdoms to get beace or something like that
in one epi i rember the "new king" needed a horse, and he tamed a horse which was never tamed before (somekind of evil horse) the way how he tamed it was by showing the horse its weaknes at the time (the horse was attacked by a wolf pack i thng and the horse was tryin to save a younger horse, the "new king" killed the young horse because it would fo died anyways..
thats kinda all i remer atm..

Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
For me it's..
1. Saki - My favorite show right now and it's still going. Touka x Nodoka please.
2. Hatsukoi Limited - Saki-nee & Kei-chan, nuff said.
3. Hayate the Combat Butler 2nd Season - I'm liking this season a lot more than the first one.
Outlaw Star is a really good series, I didn't like the english dub but i have watched it subbed at least 8 or 9 times through.
