Manly Anime - EratiK - 2012-04-26
Hmmm... so we've reached a page of recommendations, maybe we can stop here.
Watanabe Shinichirou is definitely eternal. Funny, I dled Noein a couple of days ago. For those who have the mecha vibe, I'm currently watching Linebarrels of Iron, quite satisfying so far. Miyamura Yuuko is a classic.
There's a few things here I haven't watch, I'll start by that. There were unexpected things too. The palm goes to Nagareboshi: the show looks funny, I'll be sure to watch it (have you guys watched 男子高校生の日常? [EDIT: It's also a short funny show, which gives insight to the Japanese mindset; not for everybody, but I recommend it]).
Thanks to each and everyone of you, this should keep me going (again). Good luck to all in your studies/projects/work. See you on the J-Drama side.
EDIT: @vix86: sorry for the lack of clarity

EratiK Wrote:男子高校生の日常No, I have avoided it primarily because it gives off the vibes that its a for girls and might have a heavy 腐女子 leaning. Most mainstream animes these days have some minor fan service stuff for the 腐女子 but I tend to avoid excessive stuff where I can unless its just that decent of a series.

GANTZ
it's pretty manly and awesome tho considering the terrible ending. I'd fully endorse reading the manga however, speaking as someone with all 34 books sitting on a crowded shelf in his bathroom.. the stuff is amazing.
@Marble101 ya I want to watch Brotherhood but I already watched the first one and just can't deal with re-watching the same first 40-or so episodes that were based on published manga, before the original veered off onto it's own track.

Gantz is terrible do not watch.

Neither manly nor girly, actually somewhat 無味 but I liked it anyway: 蟲師
I Also bought all the manga, Everything is about the same, only more stories and fewer cross story links.

Also, I have not watched the Ruorouni Kenshin series but I have seen the four part ovature which is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. The Man Spirit is written all over it.

So I finally enlisted in MyAnimeList ("MAL, c'est le mal"), which is a weird place, sometimes really useful, and sometimes so painstakingly time consuming it's almost unbelievable. And I finally dug out what I wanted to. Check out the list on the right.

Enjoy.
