Hi. At the risk of being ridiculed by apparently bigger Anime fans than I, I'll offer a few suggestions. Keep in mind however, no matter how large my collection may be, I haven't added to it in nearly a decade, so it's a little dated. Crack is less expensive, and I understand now why so many kids buy drugs instead. I browsed previous posts, and between all of the Miyazaki films and other series with Japanese names I probably couldn't pronounce, I didn't see anyone mention Cowboy Bebop. Maybe because it's been on Adult Swim periodically. Not sure. I only have basic cable. Regardless, It's effin' awesome. Some of the best that Anime has had to offer, ever. And the english dub is arguably better than the original voice work, so you can enjoy the show equally well without all of the reading if that's your thing, not to mention the epic soundtrack by Yoko Kanno. Without going in-depth, here are some more staples, in my opinion, of the genre: Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Macross Plus, Ninja Scroll, Gunsmith Cats, The Venus Wars, Spriggan, Desert Punk. These suggestions are by no means all-encompassing, but should merely suffice as being immediately enjoyable. Hope that helped. Peace.
