Oh dear, oh dear.
A top 5 I could do, but top ten? That's a bit tough. So I shall try top 5 best ones for me. 1. Karas Loved both volumes, but I think they were better as an OVA. An epic series with veru well done CGI and fight scenes. And of course, a story about an armored swordsmen who reminds me of Batman and Guyver. Can't get better than that! Tatsunoko's best work ever. 2. Kannazuki no Miko (Destiny of the Shrine Maiden) Underrated as hell. People like to mention Strawberry Panic alot, among others but never this one and that's just bizarre and disappointing. A yuri story unlike any other. The whole story about Himeko and Chikane defeating an evil god whilst trying to find out about each other blew my mind. Of course, I could talk about other things such as the music and the other characters but that would kinda take me awhile. But all in all, Best Yuri EVAH, bar none! 3. Attack on Titan Do I need to even explain this one? Do I? No, not really. Great story, great characters, great everything. 4. Casshern Sins This, THIS I should explain because like Kannazuki no Miko and Karas, this is another underrated gem of a show. Tatsunoko's collaboration with Madhouse gave us this reboot of one of Tatsunoko's old school heroes: Neo Human Casshern. Here, Casshern is not the Casshern you knew. Rather, he is someone the world hates and wants to kill and he doesn't know why and at the same time doesn't know about himself or anyone around him. Not only does this show look so unique, but the story has a interesting blend of sadness, action, and post apocalyptic drama. Such a thrilling series. 5. Dragonball Z Ah, you gotta love the classics. And of course, what better one than a childhood favorite of mine. One that almost everyone should be familiar with at this point. Just a badass show full of badass and funny characters.

Thanks for the list, Heishi - I've added you to the index with one small edit to help people recognise your #2 choice. Speaking of which, you may wish to check out this thread. (The first post was more extensive but, sadly, the OP took her bat and went home.)
Edit: fixed link. Thanks, Touma. Last edited by Errinundra on Mon Apr 11, 2016 5:55 pm; edited 1 time in total |

I am guessing that you are referring to Strawberry Panic here? If so it might be better to spell it out.
I think that you pasted the wrong URL in there. You probably wanted the Yuri / Shoujo Ai recommendation thread. I think. |

Fixed for everyone's convenience. Also, I already knew about that and I already posted there. |
