Subject: The top 10 anime...thing XD

Ok..lesse.

1)Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch
One of the most stupid anime of all time, but my favorite. I love the natural feal of 
the characters, even though its in a Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon like setting. The anime 
could have been open for steryotypes, but its pretty clean, and the romance is great! 
The art is cute beyond belief, and the music *swoon* I could tune in all day to some 
Mermaid Melodys...

2)Hagaren(FMA)
I didn't take as well to this series, but my friend insisted that I borrow his box 
set. It was the best thing I had done in my anime life XD Everything about Hagaren 
is very complete and emotional. Unlike most shounen, the foucus is more the characters 
veres a bunch of killing. When I finnished the series, I felt lonely, and so I am 
eagerly awaiting the movie, which I have high hopes for.

3)Shaman King
I can't really say about this one..I didn't really like it until the EPS were in the 
30s or so. After Lysarg left the group, the series became very plot consumed, but not 
so much that it wasn't fun anymore. I love  the characters most I think..and all of 
the yaoi shipping ..

4)Ultra Maniac
SUPER cute series with amazing music and lots of good relationships. There are alot 
of people in this series you can't help but go wild about..but at the same time, 
there are probably enough that you just HATE. Nevertheless, the colors and picture 
are breathtaking, and the story is veyr Miyazaki-ish (simple yet gripping)

5)Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien
Sometimes I wonder why I am such a sucker for this crap...Kimi Ga is a very overly 
dramatic soap opera series with some of the most pretty pictures in all of anime..
and damn it is addicting! This is one of those series that has you glued to your 
TV yelling like a manic *DIE HARUKA DIE*..er..I mean..yeeh

6)Full Metal PANIC
Funny how some series just click. I was never intered in PANIC until I was forced 
to watch it, and it did just that *click* Kanama and Sousuke are a very sweet couple, 
that was my first favorite thing. The battle scenes are very natural and the bots 
look real (not all pretty and Gundam-like)

7)Shoujo Kakumei Utena
The most artistic anime ever produced, and perhaps the most deep (move over
EVA) THis series seems overlooked for its obviosu tolerance to homosexually and 
the fact that its a shoujo, but it is all of these strange things that make SKU 
so captivating!

8)Spiral
I am usually not a detective person, but Spirals uniqueness got the best of me. 
I think I had high hopes for this in the start, and I was very right about them.

9)Kaleido Star
Originallity always wins...and a circus anime is pretty original. Although the dub 
is enough to make you sick, the series itself is amazing, and is oleasing to both 
genders(although it is a shoujo)

10)D~N~Angel
Saw this about a year ago in Chinese. At first, I hated it, but the series grew on 
me, and every episode I found myself more and more hooked.
