Hellsing ultimate is not yet finished...... and at the time of the pic upload it was at 8 [10(final) is coming in a few weeks] and up through 8 it is quite entertaining.

When I saw claymore on the list I was skeptical, but I like the 1-2 sentence blurbs about each anime, nice share.

Thank you for posting the list, I appreciate it. I'm constantly looking for anime recommendations, but I haven't had time to look through lists and figure out what I might be interested in. I tried to do this last night and earlier today based on what Rightstuf has for sale and didn't get too far.

That said... I've watched a few animes a number of times (Ghost in the Shell and Ninja Scroll probably more than any others) and seen Akira, Tekkon Kinreet, Princess Mononoke, Paprika, Blood: The Last Vampire, Spirited Away and Castle of Cagliostro at least once each. I own, but have yet to watch: Samurai Champloo, Sword of the Stranger, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, Nausicaa and Casshern Sins. There are probably a few titles I'm forgetting, but these are the ones I remember off-hand. I love Ghost In The Shell, Tekkon Kinkreet, Blood, and Spirited Away, but didn't like Paprika, and the pacing/story of Princess Mononoke is a bit dull for me. Also, as much as I like Ninja Scroll, the gratuitous sex and violence is a bit much.

Based on the plot of Freedom, I think I'd enjoy that quite a bit, as well as the Soul Eater series and possibly Appleseed (not sure if I should go with both films, or just try Ex Machina). I considered Grave of the Fireflies, but it just seems really depressing, and for some reason, I recall ruling out 5 Centimeters Per Second this time last year when Buy.com had their sale.

If anyone would be able to provide additional recommedations based on this post, I'd really appreciate it. I'm always looking for more intellectually-stimulating (and fun!) anime. Thanks in advance for any ideas/recommendations

They are on one of the T1-3 lists. Only $10 off as a bundle, it seems. Its Aniplex, so wont be a huge discount.

I would super extremely highly recommend Death Note immediately then.

Thanks , I will pass

I loved the first Appleseed and the music is awesome, have the album. Appleseed Ex Machina gets really cheap often, so that's an easy pick with no regret. I have the Steelcase LE of Appleseed, never could find a good price on the . I'd recommend both. DVD of Appleseed is so cheap used. Camel shows of Ex Machina down to $9.99, that's when I got it but it's only $11.49 right now, beating Rightstuf.

More recommendations that I did not see on that list, but I enjoyed and thought I'd share maybe someone else does too: Zone of the Enders and Star Ocean EX. ZoE is only the same universe as the video game, it's a prequel and there is no need to have played the game. Star Ocean on the other hand, is basically the first 2 (of 4) discs of the PS1 game. Problem is they never brought it back for a 2nd season so I'm sad :( I've heard they did 5 JP voice CDs with same VA's to finish it, but I need subtitles, heh.

Edit: Barrels.

Looks like I'll be holding out for the final day before I check out.

Baccano is supposed to be really damn good, right?

How long can items stay in your cart before going to checkout?

I might get Burn-Up since its a old school classic.

Those prices for Pluto aren't too bad. I'm missing volumes 2, 7, and 8, so I guess I'll add them to my "cart" for now.

It's supposed to be, and it is. My brother and I LOVED it. So freaking awesome...

When you add them to cart just mark them as save for later, otherwise the items in cart usually gets cleared out every 24 hours or so.

I have so many things saved in my cart at the moment, so I really hope these last two days won't be putting a hurt on my wallet too much further.

Hopefully tomorrow Chrome Shelled Regios shows up. I only managed to save ~$50ish for one last order tomorrow so hopefully the Dark Lord doesn't pull out too many cards on the last day.

Not going to wait for the 13th day?

It's okay, but the pacing is off and lots of scenes don't fit well (I'm not talking about the anachronological storyline, which I thought was cool).

When people talk about how good it is, they're only thinking of the scenes aboard The Flying Pussyfoot. But since, oh, 40% of the story takes place in New York, you have to deal with the many lows that accompany that setting (the NY information brokers are terribly boring).

There are some standout characters in the cast, but while you could tell there were some cool things going on with them, everything felt rushed, like it was directed by someone who was in over his head.

All in all, it's an 8/10, so it's still good. And it's definitely what I'd class as something that I could recommend to someone new to anime (because it's set in the USA). But don't be fooled by people telling you it's the greatest thing ever because it's not.

Hero Tales is pretty good I enjoyed it. I'll probably pick that up. Also on Baccano is pretty freakin good, there are some interesting plot twists in it that will make you what the heck. But it is good.

Meh, didn't realize that Baccano was on blu. I guess I'll wait for that to go cheap or just pass on it lol.

It's already gone cheap like a couple years back and has long since been discontinued and oop, and it's a product of Aniplex, so you probably won't get that chance.
