Hokuto no Ken, also known as Fist of the North Star, though I'd avoid the English dubbed version like the plague. It's from the 80's, when dubbing was... sub-par, to say the least. The movie is... eh, the anime is amazing, the manga is better, the OVA trilogy is great, the alternating Movie-OVA-Movie-OVA-Movie series is great, the side stories are fun as all hell, and the prequel (Souten no Ken or [/i]Fist of the Blue Sky[/i]) is fun as well.
A lot of Action/Shounen anime/manga cliche's originate in Hokuto no Ken, actually.

I have lots of friends who like anime and constantly recommend them to me claiming that "this one is different, I think you would really like it." So far the only one I've liked is Samurai Champloo. It's short, every episode has a coherent beginning, middle, and end, fight scenes are fast paced and don't have any of that "he's dead! now he's alive! He's too strong and I can't even hurt him! Now for some reason I'm able to do some super attack that can kill him! Let's talk about every attack I do for 15 minutes apiece so that a short fight can span 4 episodes!" stuff. The voice acting is good, which is EXTREMELY rare for anime, Mugen is a badass character, and it doesn't fall victim any majorly deal breaking anime cliches. So NOW I would say Samurai Champloo. Dragonball Z used to be my favorite show as a kid though.
I havent watched a lot of episodes but to my mind it is like naruto only a bit better and funnier.You cant compare it to Darker than black though..lordlee said:But Soul Eater's an incredibly generic show. Perhaps you don't hate it as much as you think you do.AWAR said:Darker than black and Soul eater are pretty cool. Even I who I am a hardcore anime hater cant stop watching them
Hulu doesn't stream outside of the US and watching 2 animes is already too much for me.lordlee said:It's a generic shonen action series.AWAR said:I havent watched a lot of episodes but to my mind it is like naruto only a bit better and funnier.You cant compare it to Darker than black though..lordlee said:But Soul Eater's an incredibly generic show.

It's not my fault I was bored I didn't watch this to just to get bored on purpose. This wasn't cause I couldn't understand it. The plot was fairly simple. A show which doesn't keep me interested has a clear flaw.LimaBravo said:
This is all about opinions and I really get fed up of fan boys demanding that their opinion rules over everyone else on a topic left up to opinion. Some people enjoy war documentaries while others find it boring no mater how much your grand-dad tries to prove you otherwise.
