There is a HUGE thread on Adult Anime (Hentai) in the “Sex and the Male Animal” section.

I’ve “bumped” it for you.

Believe it or not my girlfriend is a huge fan. I watch it with her sometimes. There is actually some good story to some of them. Heat Guy J and GunGrave are my favs.
If you have Netflix that’s a pretty good place to get an idea of what you like(because there is a lot of CRAP). They have a huge selection.

Escaflowne? Are you serious? I fell asleep everytime I tried to watch it. I never did make it to the end.
I haven’t seen VHD: Bloodlust but I loved the first one, besides the voice of D sounded like my grandpa.
I’m a big fan of Naruto and Cowboy Bebop. The music in those animes is amazing.
jmwnntenn:
He didn’t specify.
Hentai is a FORM of anime.
While certainly not exact, on the Internet, they are often used interchangeably, because MOST hacks on the internet are not looking for pictures of cute little anime butterflies and pixies.

By the way…
In NO way am I an expert in this stuff.
So I am open to being enlightened…

You my man, said the word.
Hellsing rocks too!
Cowboy Bebop was sweet to watch when it came on at midnight on the cartoon network.
Whether you like Anime or have even seen any (my exposure is pretty limited) Akira is a must see movie just from an art perspective
And I thought a buncha the Animatrix stuff that came out before the 2nd and 3rd matrix movies was cooler than the actual 2nd and 3rd movies.
It’s all trippy shit.
Dragonball(Z)(GT) series, Gundam except seed. VHD: bloodlust Samurai X and who could forget Akira.
For those berserk fans, have you also read the manga? Not to oversell it, but it is 10x radder than the already rocking anime.
Its alot more violent and shocking though, but a great read, even for those that dont like comics, I didn’t either, before berserk
you can get almost the whole thing so far here
The artwork in the first few, while still good, pales in comparison to how awesome it progressively gets
Old School
Robotech
Star Blazers
Transor Z

The movie starts with Vahn free falling from 50,000 feet into an airship, single handedly killing the entire crew, and jumping off moments before it crashes in billowing flames. If you’re going to try and convince me or anyone else the movie is boring I’m going to tell you now that you’re wasting your fucking time.

Yeah, I’m waiting for the next issue to come out. Berserk is the best.
All the other stuff mentioned as well is great. Best I’ve seen recently is a movie called “The Brave Story.”
I’ve been watching this stuff far longer than I’ve been into weights, so I’d humbly consider myself a guru on the genre.

And the next 20 mins of the girl wondering around thinking about killing herself, contemplating the universe, and sniffing flowers with her borderline dike friend? If you are even trying to tell me that part even resembles anything entertaining, you are wasting your fucking time.
No, it resembles 5 minutes of the basic necessity of any plot to develop the main character. I wont disagree on the part about you wasting my fucking time though.
