I hate to break it to you ... but in many cases anime series are not extremely profitable, and exist for the sole purpose of generating hype for the manga/game/light-novel series that they are based on.Quote:

You have those that go the opposite way, of course ... where the DVD sales are so good that they exceed expectations and almost guarantee an additional season. Here you have the Monogatari series (2nd best sales for 2013 series), Attack on Titan (best selling series last year). But Attack on Titan became one of the best selling manga series last year, solely because the anime did what it was supposed to do.
Want something AMAZING to watch? I swear its better than No Game No Life.
JoJo's Bizzare Adventure. It is fsucking brilliant. Ofcourse thats just my opinion but seriously try it.
I have been eyeing that for a while looks like so much fun.Quote:

Finished watching Psycho-Pass....an amazing anime it was!! Characters and character development were amazing, the story was really great....it was really interesting.
Going to watch Shiki in a few days time...
Now watch the Extended edition it's 40 mins per an episode and has a plethora of new scenes and dialog.Quote:

I won't watch the new edit right now, I will probably wait until it is done, or maybe I could just 'refresh' my memory with the new episodes.Quote:

I'm at a loss. I don't know what to watch after No Game, No Life. I've started watching Aldnoah.Zero (bad idea since there's only 2 episodes out) and I've started watching Evangelion... I have mecha itch that needs to be scratched:o
Well ... my standard procedure is to follow all the current shows I'm interested in, while simultaneously watching something on my backlog (Beelzebub at the moment - it's hilarious), and then sometimes doing one of my many rewatches.Quote:

Oh Beelzbub...I loved that anime...I wished there was more of it!! I might as well rewatch it, havn't seen it in HD / Full HD...
Manga has ended a while ago and there was not much to go on with how the manga ended, basically the same as the Anime did.Quote:

Yaaaaaa~ eventually got around to completing Hyōka, was a bit slow in the middle but it came together nicely in the end. I do not normally watch slice of life anime but I can highly recommend this one to someone whom has yet to start watching the genre.

Database, Database!!! Just living in the database!
We should start our own kickstarter type website for Anime, so that we can get releases on dvd and blu ray as well as help out smaller studios get work published.Quote:

I am trying Texhnolyze but the lack of dialoge is lowering my interest. Space Dandy is a riot it can't be taken seriously, it feels like a satire of the space opera genre with a lot of vulgar and sly jokes tossed in.
@Glordit, apparently you're the Mecha man around these here parts... Could you please list your favorite Mecha anime series. I'm into mecha even though I haven't watched that much outside Gurren Lagann, Broken Blade, Code Geass, Eureka Seven, Evangelion (which I've just started watching), and the currently airing Aldnoah.Zero.

Sorry about the last response the world seems to be working against me today.
I have quite a few that I have enjoyed you mentioned quite a few good ones yourself. I would recommend watching the Evangelion films after you have watched the series, it gives you an alternate ending and storytelling aspect.
Mobile Suit Gundam
My absolute favourite series.
Probably one of the longest running Mecha series from japan it started in 1979 (Soon to be 35 years old if you include the manga) and is still going, Build Fighters is getting a second Season and a new Series with a New Universe is also going air later this year (Gundam Reconguista in G). I would recommend you start with Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (Just a word of warning with 00 it's a very modern Gundam series set in the AD future, you may feel a little let down on the design of the other Mobile Suits in the older series) SEED, Wing + The OVA series or Build Fighters. The Gundam series itself is very involved and to honest involves a lot of politics as well as drama, it's not called a 'space opera' for nothing.
Armored Troopers Votoms
An very old but very classic series.
Diebuster & Gunbuster
Diebuster (Top o Nerae! Gunbuster) is also a must watch quite a bit older than most, the production company ran out of funds to colour the final episode but years after it's release it became a cult classic.
Gunbuster is the sequel to Diebuster you will see a little bit of Tengen Toppa in it.
Blue Gender
Classic 90's Mecha series a lot of gore and blood, more for the shock value than story telling.
Patlabor
A film series about a police force with a gigantic robot, well worth a watch.
GaoGaiGar
Betterman (a spin off of GaoGaiGar)
RahXephon
Reideen
Aquarion
Aquarion EVOL (set in a different time period)
Linebarrels of Iron
All mostly fall under the shonen style gigantic mecha sub-genre.
Cyborg 0009 (more of a 'human' robot series)
Brain Powerd
Escaflowne
Mazinger (managed to keep it's 80's visuals and style through the years)
Macross
Another classic, spans over many years has quite a few OVA's, Series and Films.
Casshern
More likely to get a hold of the rebooted series SINS, which is also a 'human' robot mecha series.
Wildcards Just throwing it out there because why not?
Medabots
Megas XLR
A thousand Thank yous, good Sir. I will be taking a good look at all the suggestion (a test of how much my mind will digest :D).Quote:

EDIT: I just noticed the Medabots and Megas XLR mentions :'''D
P.S. I don't if you've tried watching Medabots recently, if you haven't (I have), don't do it (it's better in your memories :rolleyes:).
Not sure if you guys will like this.
Death note (it was briliant for me starts a bit slow but the idees = original)
Then there's fullmetal alchemist
Just don't wach the brotherhood one...
Are you stating that Brotherhood is bad? I can't understand how that could be? It is a better representation of the manga than the original Fullmetal Alchemist was.Quote:

Yeah, I haven't seen the 1st iteration of Fullmetal Alchemist, and I quite enjoyed Brotherhood :rolleyes:.
Any particular reason you don't like Brotherhood, I'm curious. I know if I had to have a gripe with it, it'd be the pacing in the middle of the show.
Well I geus its a matter of prefrenceQuote:

Are you making a comparison of Fullmetal Alchemist and Brotherhood or Brotherhood and the manga?Quote:

FMA started out following the manga then it caught up and deviated from the manga so the anime had its own ending that did not follow the original story.
Brotherhood was released many years later after the manga had been compleped so it stayed true to the original story.
In my opinion Brotherhood is vastly superior to the original.
