Recomendations for Anime/Manga?

Postby Hittokiri04 » Wed Jan 24, 2007 10:24 am

I've been out of the anime/manga loop for a bit and was wondering if you fine people could recommend some good anime and/or manga series(es). I'm really looking for a good shojo series in manga as for anime I really have no preference. Thank you in advance.

Heh lemme guess you watched the dub of Prince of Tennis well to be blunt the dub sucks XD But really the original is like really good if you like tennis if you don't like tennis I don't really think that you would like it. If you play tennis watch if you don't then don't watch it...

Mega.EXE: I like animes even if I don't like the subject matter. SO I may like it seems like a good concept.

mitsuki lover: I didn't put in the anime category because I am asking for recommendations for both anime and manga. But I guess I probably should've put it in one of them...sorry.

"God the great Creator of all things doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, according to His infallible foreknowledge and the free and immutable counsel of His own will, to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy."

"All of Christian life is ceaseless worship of God the Father, through the mediatorship of God the Son, by the indwelling power of God the Spirit, doing what God commands in Scripture, not doing what God forbids in Scripture, in culturally contextualized ways, for the furtherance of the Gospel, when both gathered for adoration, and scattered for action, in joyous response to God's glorious grace."
- Mark Driscoll

"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."

Allthough I've never followed it fully, Card Captor Sakura is a decent shojo anime.

Princess Tutu. I know the title is cheezy, but it's one of my favorite animes. It's awesome and nearly misses being cliche. It's a magical girl show. The ending is also amazing. ;3;

Honey and Clover has just been licensed, so I suggest checking that out. It's a slice of life anime, no magic or action, but it's really lovely. Another one of my favorites. :3

24+ hours ... and no one has recommended Fruits Basket in a thread about shoujo?

What is this world coming to...
Embraced by a gentle breeze, my heart breaks as I think of you.
All alone at the top of the hill, I watch as the seasons go by.

Wishing for courage softly, I pray.
There's no going back now, to those tender days when you held me in your arms.

check the anime review. it's a very good shojo manga that's only 14 episodes long. it's one of my top 3 animes. an excellent anime that may leave some confused. i thought that it was a good thought-provoking anime with a touch of every genre.
