Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - Kawasari Mimoto - 2008-11-01

Who are you to tell others whether they are qualified or not to judge anime whether they've seen FLCL or not?

A "lot" better? I would say no. A little better? I would say probably. It's all in the same league though, really. In fact, every one in that poll EASILY falls under the category of shounen, with the possible exception of Code Geass (I tried watching it once and the art style made me want to vomit diarrhea, so frankly, I'm not all that familiar with that 'ne, even if the universe seemed relatively interesting).

On-topic, FLCL is a great anime, but it's certainly not the greatest either. Sure, if you look past their antics and some of the more random scenes, some has really deep meaning behind it. Like the one episode where Haruko says that she wants to play with Naota's 'guitar', she meant his plantain, not his guitar, which is why the screen shifted to his guitar as her and him started to fade away in the background, and etc.

But like I said, it's not the greatest. I used to be a huge FLCL fanboy back then, I made a character called "FLCL Haruko" on Phantasy Star Online, etc. And I downloaded all of the FLCL songs, and so on.

As for Naruto and Bleach, everyone has their differences and opinions on things. It's kinda harsh and impolite to bash other's on their's.

I don't see why people bash on Naruto and Bleach so much. If they weren't as popular as they are now; i'm sure half of the people who complain about them so much, wouldn't say anything. If they both suck so bad, they wouldn't have had enough nominates to even be on the poll. I don't like the fillers they have sometimes, but the story really isn't that bad. We can sit and argue all day long about which anime is better than the other, but it really is a waste of time since it's a matter of opinion. The whole point of the thread is to find which anime has the majority of people who favor it among the other animes.

Sad truth is, kids have poor taste in EVERYTHING. Music, TV, Anime, Games etc.

If you conducted this poll on a more mature forum I can guarantee the top 5 choices would be a lot better.


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - DrRusty - 2008-11-01

How much more mature of a forum are we gonna get other than Southperry? You can't really say "the choices would be better" because it's all a matter of opinion. I might think cowboy beebop sucks, and you think its the greatest anime ever. It's just how people think. You can't really say someone has better taste than someone else...


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - Mark - 2008-11-01

Southperry = Maplestory fan site.

Maplestory = MAPLE STORY...

I'll let you think about it.

And it's Bebop* Goddammit.

It's not so much that it's "bad" so much as that it's nothing special. It's the modern equivalent to Dragon Ball Z, and let me tell you, I have nothing against this sort of thing, really. I have all the season box sets of DBZ, as well as all of the currently released movies. I'm not saying that shounen is BAD, it's just never the best there is.

It's like asking a person what the best movie of all time is and them responding with "Spider-man" or "X-men". They're not bad movies, but they're a ways off from the best of all time.

If you think Cowboy Bebop sucks, you have no right to judge anime.

No one from Naruto can beat DBZ characters...lol Rolleyes

I said "I "might" think cowboy beebop sucks, and you might think it's the greatest anime ever" because I was trying to give an example of how what's better than what is only opinion. I've only seen like 4 episodes of cowboy bebop to be honest.

that's because DBZ characters can blow up planets Rolleyes

Samurai Champloo isn't on there, and I like One Piece a lot too. Out of those four I'd have to say Full Metal Alchemist.


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - WingZero - 2008-11-02

What about the Gundam Series?


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - JezzaRules - 2008-11-02

Bleach (detergent) *snicker* that made me lol.

My favorite anime would be either Naruto or Bleach, I can't decide...


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - Kurtle - 2008-11-02

I have to say Rurouni Kenshin is by far a lot better than Naruto but no1 has really read the entire series. Sad, one of the greatest mangas I've seen.


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - ablu2 - 2008-11-02

I only voted naruto because i have not watched any of the others. I am watching the english version so I just saw the top 5 ninja battles. Naruto's story really is going no-where where I am and my bro has gave up watching.

Yeah, Z characters would destroy the Naruto ones in no time, but it's impossible to compare two different shows, both are cool.


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - EngelRod - 2008-11-02

Lol mostly shonen on that list, I honestly preffer bishojo but that's just me. Anyway I will vote for Death Note. Rolleyes

What about Pain? He has this ability to absorb and deflect attacks with his bodies. (which is literally hax, then again most dbz characters are hax)


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - Goatku - 2008-11-03

I really don't like the Death Note anime. The manga, however, is one of the best I've ever read. I voted for FMA, it's a better anime than the others. I've read the manga and watched all their animes.
I agree Bebop should be up there. FLCL though.. I think it's too short to really be able to compete.

Even though he has those abilities, he still no match with Z Fighters.... Rolleyes

I guess you can compare animes like Bleach and Naruto to pop-music. I listen to all sorts off music but it's funny to see how some alts try to stand out making fun of what the rest likes.


Southperry's Favorite Anime part#2 (Poll) - Corn - 2008-12-05

Excellent, Death Note won by one point over Code Geass.
