Try browsing the shelves at Best Buy, the shop here at AN, or get a Netflix subscription. If you have Comcast Digital, try AnimeOnDemand. If that's all you've really seen, I can't for the life of me figure out why you're having trouble finding more to watch.

You might like :
Bleach
Cowboy bebop
Outlaw star
Samurai x : trust and betrayel (OAV)
Spirited away ( movie)
Fruit Basket

Those are just some of the animes i enjoyed, but you have only seen 5 animes, how in the hell are you having trouble finding new animes to watch.

well let me see,
-Gundam: the 08th MS team
-Gundam 0080 war in the pocket
both are excellent mech based yet not tech-heavy series

- I second the Samurai x: trust and betrayal OVA's
- I would add to that Rurouni Kenshin at least seasons 1&2, season 3 is kinda crappy in comparison to the first 2, but still a good watch if you like the series and want to see it all.
- well lets see I'm gonna toss in ninja scroll TV, and otogi zoshi for the hell of it since I think their good series and have that old country japan thing going for them (although otogi zoshi tokyo is based in the present)

If you'd like to try something a little less mainstream I suggest
-Haibane-Renmei and
-serial experiments:lain
they are probably nothing related to what you've listed but their good and should get some time in the spotlight.

I have to agree tho it doesn't look like you've watched much, so it's really hard to say what you'd really like, my suggestion is just hit up the local blockbuster and rent out something anime, and try to get something besides AS anime block anime under your belt.

The great thing is that he's addicted, but there's so much he hasn't seen. I predict lots of enjoyment in his future. :)

Although this show was/is (?) on Adult Swim, I'd strongly recommend Cowboy Bebop. IMO, excellent anime.

There's also Serial Experiments Lain, if you're into the obscure like I am.

Also check out Fruits Basket. Yes, it's a little bit on the feminine side and is a guilty pleasure of mine, but it's well made and interesting.

Have a good one.

Also watch Azumanga Daioh, and Bottle Fairies.....two 'slice-of-life' that i like.



heres a good of Boku wa Sexual Harassement... :ph34r:

I got to second azumanga daioh, since it is hilarious.

while I'm at it
-Akira (because it's a classic and the anime addicts handbook says you have to watch it)
-Goldenboy (because it's funny, perverted, and the series is cheap as hell)
-Grave of fireflies (because nothing picks you up like a tale of tragity and loss based in WW2)
-Initial D (because it's required that I post that, and it rocks)

I am not sure how you managed to miss DragonBall Z, or if you just forgot.
If not, you should like it.

Try alota genres but my personal recomendations are. . .

Akira( because it's required veiwing and it's got a great story and action)
Original Dirty Pair(it has scifi, girls, guns, explosions, and, comedy might I add it's cheap)
Dirty Pair Flash( same as above)
Bubblegum Crisis(OVA and Tokyo 2040)& Crash(great scifi action shows and good story)also counts for A.D.Police Files and To protect and Serve

I also gota say Azumanga Daioh is good get that.

Remember these are just a few of my PERSONAL recomendations take 'um how you want.

i have seen inuyasha, full metal alchemist, naruto, gundam seed, gundam -wing, and that about covers it.Since you like Naruto and InuYasha, you might like Bleach, especially if you're an action fan; action is one thing this series does not lack. The anime begins its run on Adult Swim in September, so that's perfect timing.

I second the recommendation for Rurouni Kenshin - and if you're interested in historical fiction/"samurai drama" action anime, then I double that recommendation. :) (I also suggest reading the manga, as well - the anime doesn't animate the entire manga.)

One series I always recommend is The Vision of Escaflowne. IMO, it's a wonderful blend of shounen (boys') and shoujo (girls') genres - action and mecha mixed with romance and magic. (And while you're at it, you might as well check out the movie. It's good, as long as you don't compare it to the TV series.)

Here are a few of my picks.

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon: All seasons.
Gokusen
Revolutionary Girl Utena: Wins in every category
Vampire Princess Miyu
Cardcaptor Sakura: can't go wrong with CLAMP
Neon Genesis Evangelion: 'nuff said
Kare Kano
Millennium Actress: I cry every time
Maria-sama Ga Miteru: Because Sei=WIN
Angel's Egg: It's hard to find but impossible to forget.
Monster: Best. Series. Ever.
Kannazuki no Miko: Chikane+Himeko=WIN
Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito: You'll just have to see it to believe it
Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou (1998 and 2002): I cannot recommend it enough.
Whisper of the Heart
Kasimasi: Do you really have to ask?
Noir
Strawberry Panic!
Battle Athlets Victory
2x2=Shinobuden: If Shinobu and Kaede don't get you, Onsokumaru and Sasuke will

Kaleido Star: I LOVE this show!
Onii-sama E: Can't forget the classics
Read or Die TV
Excel Saga: I added this one last since it's a comedy which parodies popular anime. Yoru enjoyment of this show goes way up when you've seen the shows it parodies.

That's the short list. Hope it helps.

So it's mere coincidence, then, that all of the anime you've seen happen to have been or are being aired on Adult Swim? :P

Well, even if you don't get out much, you can still satisfy your thirst for anime...by renting online. There are plenty of online video rental stores. The one that comes to mind is RentAnime.com (http://www.rentanime.com/default.php) - they're all about anime, and I hear about them often.

im not old enough to shop online , and even if i was, i still dont have the money to buy(or rent) anime.

Actually, it's not. His location says Canada, and I for one have yet to get Adult Swim here. My guess is YTV ^.^ Besides, Naruto isn't on Adult Swim :P

When it comes to watching on TV, you're going to be fairly limited to what "new" shows you're going to be able to watch. And if you can't buy/rent... well, you're pretty much left to (dare I say) download.

Looks like you've been fairly limited to Shonen/Action... so if you wanted to see more like you've already seen, my suggestions would be fairly similar to some of the others already given. Some of the other Gundam series, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Hunter x Hunter, Escaflowne, Ghost in the Shell, Bleach... I'm sure the list could go on.

If you have a Roger's Video Store in the area, I suggest checking it out. They often have anime for rent, and to rent dvds from there isn't really expensive. I was surprised at the amount they had there to rent, because I wasn't expecting to find any. Just look under the Fantasy section. I'd also suggest checking out some of the stores like Walmart or Zellers. They often have anime for cheap. CD Plus and HMV also carry a varied assortment of anime, although they're usually a little more expensive. Even if you have no money at all, check out some of these places anyways. You can browse some of the titles and may just find something new.

If so, then see if they'll allow you to shop online, since you're not old enough to shop online for yourself (and I assume you probably don't have your own credit card). As for not having enough money, you could always ask for anime for your birthday and/or Christmas (if you celebrate Christmas, and if you don't, whichever holiday you celebrate that involves exchanging gifts). Those are just my suggestions.

heres a good of Boku wa Sexual Harassement... :ph34r:
It's Boku no Sexual Harassment... not the kind of thing I'm into, but it wouldn't make much sense if the title was "I am Sexual Harassment."

im not old enough 2 shop online , and even if i was, i still dont have the money to buy(or rent) anime.
So... was it so much extra work to type two letters instead of one number? Or maybe I should put it into terms you can understand:

"So... wuz it 2 much extra werk 2 type 2 letters insted uv 1 number?"
