Code Geass, Berserk, Black Lagoon, Claymore, Toradora! (I know the last one seems out of place XD)

Manga: Berserk, Gantz (much better than the anime) and the aforementioned ones except for Code Geass and Toradora! mainly because I haven't read those yet.

That character looks vaguely familiar. I can't quite figure out where I've seen her before >.>

On topic

Favourite anime - Uhh.... *looks at avatar*
Close runners up include Darker Than Black, Full Metal Panic, Hellsing Ultimate and a few others I can't be arsed to list.

Favourite manga - Fruits Basket, Hellsing, Real, Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle, Vagabond and a whole lot of various yuri oneshots and series.

Darker than Black - Incredibly underrated series, it didn't start out as anything special at first, but then I got more drawn in as the series progressed. I'm actually put off from watching the second series though, as I have heard very mixed things about it, and i'm afraid that it might dampen my love for the series.
The second season is.... not very good. I got about halfway through it before dropping it from lack of interest. I'll probably go back and finish it eventually, but it really is a piss poor sequel to the awesome that was Darker Than Black.
I'm noticing a tendency of Nanoha fans to also like mecha anime... Admittedly, I like strategists and tacticians more than I like the strong, quiet type. Hayate Yagami is easily one of my favorite characters of all time. She gets a random group of four knights. One, Signum, says "We'll follow your orders. Just tell us what to do." Her response? Make them pose as family members in town for a cosplay convention. Which is useful for explaining their barrier jackets later on.

Also, in the movie and StrikerS, Nanoha herself comes into her own. She doesn't seem to be much of a tactician (Her tactics are essentially "shoot, shoot harder, and shoot more), but... Well, see for yourself.

I dont like it when anime does that.

Most of the character's weapons speak either English or German. And it's broken English. And they used native English speakers for them.

Teknoman wins by a mile for me.
Great storyline. Great animation for it's time. SHORT which is great since it really has them focusing on a strong storyline.

Allround amazing.

Haha! Tekkaman Blade ftw, man! I wish he was more fun to use in Tatsunoko vs Capcom, though.

OT: Currently, my favorite anime are FMA: Brotherhood (Better than the original by a mile!), and G Gundam.

Manga: God, probably Osamu Tezuka's Buddha.

Which is what I find weird. When they speak Japanese and have English and German speaking weapons. Which is why I didnt like Code Geass in Japanese cuz they were suppose to be Europeans and yet they talked in Japanese.

That's the thing. The broken grammar is something that's just indicative of the weapons themselves. Hell, even in the dub, their English is still broken. I think it's supposed to be an aspect of the devices or t he language that they're speaking (English with wonky grammar and that sort of thing might indicate something similar to English, but a completely separate dialect).

A few. Two remain on the forefront for the first two seasons while there's one (a sniper) that shows up in StrikerS.

Probably Haruhi Suzumiya only because I don't know what else I watched recently. Oh, and Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha is up there too. It just needs more Vita.

There's Yuno, Chrono, Erio, and the helicopter pilot guy. I think his name is Vice? There are guys, it's just that the girls take up the large majority of screen time.

Anime: Gurren Lagann, no contest.

Manga: I'd have to say Katekyo Hitman REBORN!, even though this new arc is starting to get on my nerves...

Manga: don't read any.

Anime: Death Note by a long shot. Like if all the anime was in the Tower of Babel, Death Note would be on the last floor while everything else would be crumpled on the first. It's SO MANY LEAGUES better than everything else, it's fucking ridiculous.
Really? Because I HATED The anime. The manga was just better in every way, full of more suspense and, IMO, told the story better.
