5. Soul Eater- Had a pretty memorable cast of characters. Okay story

4. Death Note- Got me started on anime and thought the story was great until the second half of the series.

3. Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood- Great anime overall

2. Baccano! - Short and sweet (16 episodes I think?) and has a little bit of everything (susense, thriller, action, fantasy, old-school gangsters :D )

1. Darker Than Black - Has an epic main character that reminds me of Batman, and a story that is similar to X-men (where there are "special" people)

I reccomend these anime to anybody!

Off the top of my head & in no order(+ constently changing :P)

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood: do I really need to explain this one:P

Toradora:Favorite highschool anime, replaced Host Club, wish it got a dub release:cry:

Hellsing OVAs: follows manga to a T, and with huge budget:D

Romeo x Juliet: fleshes out the age old story, rewriting characters for the better & having the time to flesh them out

Ano Hana: the end made me cry sobbing tears of joy. No tv series or movie ever pulled my heart strings this much

You'd probably like shows like Neon Genesis Evangelion, Monster, Black Lagoon, Kara no Kyoukai, and Phantom.

Same for me!

I have seen a few movies, I think Miyazaki's stuff, which is pretty good. But as far as anime series go Ghost in the Shell is the most tame one. I don't like the over the top gore or stylistic jumping around/action and desu desu giant eyes nonsense that most other anime has, or the dramatic standing around talking and looking shocked and being dramatically silent.

The Kenshin OVA's (that I listed as my #1) are more like a normal movie, with maybe a bit too much blood, but otherwise sane, none of that over-the-top or giant eyes crap. You may like it! :D

As I recommended to Firebird, you should give Monster a try. It's very interesting and 'tame' (no over-the-top gore, jumping around, giant eyes, etc.), and probably the best anime I've seen.
