FLCL sounds so crazy, i'm going to read it (Ye, that's how it works: "DO NOT PUSH THE BIG RED BUTTON!" "orly?" /push)
Deadman Wonderland on the list aswell, i'm going to get mindfucked by those. Getting back to Karin: I don't really like much the animation (Karin is.... rhomboidal, and that guy's eyes are... weird). However, i just watched 3 episodes so far, so i'm going to endure it to the 5th episode and see if it's worth continuing. EDIT Wait, is FLCL mainly a manga or an anime? I want to enjoy the full story, not only one piece, so let me know if it's the manga or the anime that covers the full story. Same goes for DW. |

EDIT : After you finish watching Karin and Special A, you should watch The Sacred Blacksmith (which I'll give you some hints and content about the anime, here my post) and High School DxD (if only after it finishes airing).

You know, seeing that you recommend him Highschool DxD makes me doubt you even read the OP's post.
to OP: have you even considered watching or reading some of the classics like Video Girl Ai, I"s or Orange Road? Too bad you dropped Clannad, it gets interesting in the After Story part.

Anyways, finished episode 14 of Karin, and slowly nearing the end. It's not as deep as romance, and got a feature that i remembered i didn't like (The nosebleed, shared by Mayoi chiki), but at least it's a relaxing title, so it'll do the job for the moment. Expecting much brain-grinding from FLCL tonight. EDIT @Sheeba: while i'm watching Karin, could you write a little description of those titles you suggested? Just to get the idea of what they are about, if they are fantasy oriented or contain psycho/mystery or if they are 100% romances. Thank you. Btw, as far Clannad goes, what disturbed me the most was the main heroine: the protagonist was totally ok for my tastes, but the main heroine just looked... retarded to me. That's the main reason i dropped it. Add to this that the anime was slow and it consumed 4 episodes to cover that little ghost girl route. I watched up to the 6-7th episode, now i do not remember exactly, and i remember there were many other girls in it (the gray haired girl was a tsundere, if i'm not mistaken), but just thinking that the protagonist would have ended with that annoying girl(it's obvious she's the main heroine), made me lose my hopes. |

First of all, Classified Info's original request was first for anime, not manga. He then asked if there was manga because he wanted a story that was complete rather then unfinished like the Mirai Nikki anime. The NGE manga is unfinished as of yet. The TV series + End of Evangelion is a complete story. If he wants a complete story then the original anime series is the only choice. Additionally there is not any more significant romance in the manga then in the anime. Perhaps you are referring to the better development of Rei as a character, which is indeed superior over the anime. Firstly, I do not see this as romance (probably because I'm not a Rei-Shinji fan, I like Rei, but not as a romantic interest), secondly Classified Info was more interested in Asuka who is better developed in the original series. Or perhaps you are referring to the greater time spent in the manga on the Hikari-Toji romance, but that is a tertiary story at best, even in the manga. The main romantic storylines of Asuka-Shinji and Masato-Kaji are developed best in the anime original series.

Lets get back on topic here folks. I already told classified to create a thread for manga only so this thread wouldn’t go off topic. Anyway here’s another list of anime
Chrno crusade http://myanimelist.net/anime/60/Chrno_Crusade Romeo x Juliet http://myanimelist.net/anime/1699/Romeo_x_Juliet Aquarion Evol http://myanimelist.net/anime/10447/Aquarion_Evol Itazura na Kiss http://myanimelist.net/anime/3731/Itazura_na_Kiss Higashi no Eden http://myanimelist.net/anime/5630/Higashi_no_Eden Koi Kaze http://myanimelist.net/anime/634/Koi_Kaze Futakoi Alternative http://myanimelist.net/anime/126/Futakoi_Alternative Kenkou Zenrakei Suieibu Umishou http://myanimelist.net/anime/2602/Ke...uieibu_Umishou There are not many romance titles left that could interest the ts. the good thing is that this year is a year filled with new romance anime and sequals like sora no otoshimono,Kore wa Zombie Desuka etc. Last edited by Cold~as~Ice; 2012-03-17 at 12:13. |

I'm appealed by Kenkou Zenrakei, and currently getting it, but some of the other titles you listed are aimed to girls/women, and i can't really stand them.
Once again, it looks like i can't get over the "felame protagonist" issue, so avoid any suggestion having a girl as a protagonist. Karin is part of these titles, but is a light title, and easily bearable, and i've already nearly finished it, so no point in dropping it at ep20. Also, if Romeo x Juliet is just an adaption of the famous romance, where the two lovers die in the end, then i'll most likely find it deadly boring. |

Also, good luck with Karin. I also need your insight since I only read the manga and never watch the anime myself.

Finished watching Karin, but i felt the end was kinda rushed; also:
Spoiler for plot / ending:
Now starting FLCL: let's see if it's really that crazy EDIT Watched the first episode, but it's just too random. By "crazy" i didn't mean this kind of random nonsense show, but rather a story with lots of twists and weird things, but still a story with a plot. What should i actually deduce from the first episode of FLCL? This guy getting teased by a girl(that likes his brother), and gettin run over by some crazy pinkhaired girl swinging an electric (chainsaw?) guitar? Growing an horn? This show is surely messed, no doubt about it, but as long as it doesn't make any sense, i'm not going to enjoy it. In order to really fuck somoene's mind, you should first give the feeling of reality, and then twist and destroy that feeling and turn it into something where you start doubting the concept of normal/strange, good/evil etc... that's at least how i see it., or actually, that's how my mind can be played with. If you feed me from the beginning this kind of crazy story, i'm not going to fall for it. If you trick me into believing everything is normal, and then twist it, then it's gonna be a success. Now starting lovely complex. Last edited by Classified Info; 2012-03-17 at 16:27. |

I await your comments on episode 1
Let's see if you can resist a variation on "WTH did I just watch?"

I had already edited my previous post about FLCL
Anyways, finished watching the first episode of Lovely Complex, but i definitely don't like the female lead: they made her... she just doesn't fit my tastes at all. The boy got all my sympathy, he even looks cool, but i don't think i can stand that girl's looks much. Also, the plot is pretty obvious, and it was obvious from the first episode. Also, the anime starts with them "hating" each other, and after 6 minutes they already get along like a couple. Momentanely dropping it. Now starting Gift - Eternal rainbow EDIT AAAAAAA crap, i can't get myself to enjoy these titles : watched the first 2 episode, but i'm already finding it boring and not original, and i also noticed that i hate that kind of huge eyes; to be honest, most of the titles i watched had characters with inhuman huge eyes, just like every anime i guess, but this one kinda bothered me for some reason. Am i just being silly, or this anime actually has bad sized eyes? Anyways, Mirai Nikki left a scar: it was too much interesting and captivating compared to these titles, so everything just looks boring at the moment. The only thing that could fit is Death Note, but i do not have the time to fully watch it (Gettin back to university on monday, and tomorrow i'll be out for half day), so i'll save it for the next week. I'll try out Vampire Knight. Last edited by Classified Info; 2012-03-17 at 17:43. |

I'm not exactly a machine, so bear with the times xD
I finished watching the first season of Vampire Knight, and i really liked it. Currently getting the 2nd season, because i just want to know how it ends. My thoughts about the s1: Spoiler for plot:
Found the plot nothing really original than other stories i had already read, but it was nonetheless entertaining and interesting, and the artwork totally fit my tastes. It managed to keep me awake up to 4 am, so it surely wasn't boring. Tomorrow i'll watch s2, but i don't think i'll be able to finish one more title after it. I'll try Deadman Wonderland manga next week; my list is full at the moment, but keep suggesting, since i always update it. Oh, and i had already checked Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai!, but it's censored as hell, and it pisses me off a lot. I'll wait for the uncensored version. |

there is not much out there that's left that will fit your taste since most the romance titles left have a girl as a protagonist,mecha element,homosexuality,sports,music,more than 25 episodes etc.luckily ano natsu de matteru is almost finished which I think is the best romance anime this year so far and highschool dxd best ecchi anime so far.

Thanx for your anime insight. Now I know that the manga is superior to me, just like Maken-Ki.

Lol, how's that there is no vampire hunter in Karin?
Spoiler for everything:
Now starting the second season of Vampire Knight. It actually has the girl as protagonist, that's true, but there is often a third person view, so i'm fine with it. |
