Hi guys I'm looking for two types of genres Supernatural (with action as well) and Action. I am looking for a beautiful supernatural anime series that has action like Kara no Kyoukai, Shingetsutan Tsukihime, Kurozuka, Bakemonogatari, Darker than black, shikabane hime, Jigouko Shoujo. I have also really enjoyed the xxxHolic series (though doesnt have action) which is a more light-hearted supernatural anime.

The action series

Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom (Particularly, Since I really loved it)
cowboy bebop
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (Particularly)
Gai-rei-zero (also can be in the supernatural genre)
trigun
Berserk
Claymore
Getbackers (liked it, but too lighthearted)

Thanks, I will update for more that I have watched.

Chrome Shelled Regios. Seen it. It starts good, then ends with a "Meh" feeling.
Shakugan no Shana. Seen it
Chaos Head.
Kaze no Stigma. Seen it and loved it.

Supernatural & action

Busou Renkin
Xam'd: Lost Memories
Fate/Stay Night
Baccano!

For something supernatural but with less action try Natsume Yuujinchou

And just for action try Black Lagoon and Samurai Champloo

Dennou Coil, though it is not supernatural genre, it sometimes gives of supernatural feels...

Another title you wanna try is Mushishi, but this is a pure supernatural genre with very little action in it...

Mononoke and its prequel Bakeneko from Ayakashi Tradional Japanese Horror.

Ghost Hound

I'd call Hellsing's action beautiful... gory bloody splattery beautiful. Okay, it's really beautifully animated. Go for the OVA series; there's 7 out so far. It's abot vampires and stuff.
Also, you might like Gungrave. It has some supernatural elements, good gunfights, and a really intruiging story.

God of Peace · 2010-01-08, 16:07

Thanks Guys, I have seen Gungrave (havent finished it), Hellsing (Very dark), Fate/Stay night (nice).

I will look into mononoke, but what is ayakashi tradiotion whatever, I cant seem to find it?

Just to let you know guys I'm looking for something with a bit of mystery as well really like Kara no kyoukai (really beautiful was blown away), Bakemonogatari (nice concept and design, querky character interaction), Shingetsutan tsukihime ( Because resembled KNK).

For action something more like the Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom that I mentioned. Thanks.

You're looking for this.

NoLongerSane · 2010-01-08, 18:52

You could try Tokko or Silent Mobius for the supernatural and action series.

Since you mentioned Berserk, "Bastard!!" (somewhat resembles Berserk) is a pretty decent supernatural+action anime. Preferably I'd recommend reading the manga for the actual and badass story.

For the more classics that you might enjoy...

Princess Rouge: Legend of the Last Labyrinth
Tattoon Master
Guyver TV Series

enjoy!

Try Tenpou Ibun Ayakashi Ayashi. I don't think it's "beautiful" per se, but it's got action in spades, and it's not usually mentioned.
