The Anime Thread!

You a fan? What series' have you watched? Currently following one? What's your genre of choice? All that general stuff.

I was hooked on Toonami back in the day, but when its popularity started phasing out, my interest more or less did as well. Just got caught up in school & other stuff. But I watched almost everything on there... Big O, Outlaw Star, Gundam Wing, Tenchi Muyo, Dragonball Z, etc. Plus I was (and still am) a huge fan of Pokemon. After most of 'em went off the air I was into other things, playing music mostly, and anime was the farthest thing from my mind.

More recently though I've been diving into it all over again. When I moved out of state I had to find a few new things to occupy myself with, and after a while some of 'em got stale so I started going to conventions. In doing so I saw how invaluable certain series' were to fans, kinda like (most of) us with the turtles. Plus I realized there was a lot more genres than just giant robot fighting shows (which I find incredibly boring usually). Not long after I got Netflix, which happens to have an extensive selection of anime so I gave a few shows a shot and since then I've been tearing through bunches of 'em one after another. EDIT: Now I have Roku, which runs Crunchyroll & other anime services, which have subbed series' old & new. Much better. I've become a terrible weeaboo since I made this thread years back.

Here's what I've watched so far (as of 7/4/2014) in the order of viewing-
