Hello to everyone. Let me just start by saying I don't watch a whole lot of anime, so it is fairly hard to try and stay focussed on shows like Bleach when i just start watching them and they have 230+ episodes.
Now to the main point. I am looking for a good anime to watch, and I mean like defining the genre good. One that will actually keep me entertained and will make me want to watch it for a long time. I have seen a few anime, I watched Elfen Lied (really good) Dragon Ball Z, Bleach and Naruto, one time I did try to watch Cowboy bebop but I had to go somewhere and I never got around to watching it again. The one I particularly liked out of that list was Elfen Lied, primarily because it wasn't (and I know you're all sick of the stereotype) Ninjas and Samurai's running around with messed up hair with weapons that look like they could skin a crocodile. Elfen Lied had a depressing ending and few episodes, I think that is why i enjoyed it so much.
So Escapist what are some other good anime shows. I'm looking for a preferably short (although I won't care to much if it isn't ) good anime with some gorish scenes and preferably a depressingly theme about it. Also if this may effect your judgement I like it when there are big monsters in movies, machines and space.
The Anime doesn't have to follow those guide lines, they're just what I prefer, if you can't think of anything similar to that then just tell me your favorite anime, why it is and if I might like it.
