mmm Grave of the Fireflies was indeed sad, however when I originally watch Saikano I felt sadder compartively...

Saikano is a very good anime to watch =) Very depressing...but very well done IMO

what dramas have you seen?

If I had to reccommend stuff my list would be off the top of my head:

Saikano - Romance/drama
Love Hina - Comedy/romance/drama
Full Metal Panic - Mecha/Comedy/Drama
Scryed - Action
Full Metal Alchemist - Action (mainly) slight bit of drama
Kiddy Grade - Action, mmm it's just a feel good
Stellvia of the Universe - Action/Drama/Comedy, heavily leaned toward drama, those PMS episodes are annoying at times >_<
Kanon - Drama
Genshiken - Just cause it's cool and about otakus =P
Hikaru No Go - It's about GO what else do you need to know? Ahaha it prob. doesn't sound that great...but once you start it's like @_@ marathon time! whooooooo
Chrno Crusade - Action/Religion(doens't matter too much)/Romance
Hellsing - Action, Vampires...what else do I need to say...
Chobits - Comedic/Romance

wow list is getting long...but yeah that's a decent start *cough*

edit

ahaha had to add some more things =P

Onegai Teacher - Romance/drama/comedy, do NOT I repeat do NOT get the second season, Onegai Twins, unless you're really into incest/ecchi/comedy
On that note I hear Koi Kaze has a VERY strong storyline even though it focuses around incest... :wub: >_>

Surprised noone mentioned this title yet:
- Grave of the Fireflies
XD

I second this nomination..

This was the first time that I had forgotten that I was watching an anime.
Never have I experienced something like this ever again.
This is truelly the saddest anime that I have seen so far.
Based on a true story as well, except the brother didn't die in the end like the anime. I watched a documentary some time ago about this, the guy was still sad over the loss of his sister, he mentioned eating some of the food to keep his strength up before taking them back to his sister, he feels guilty about this and can't seem to forgive himself. :wub:
If it ain't Musume, I don't want it.

Now and Then, Here and There. [review]

This anime will fool you into thinking it's just another anime, but it is so so tragic. The extras on the DVDs interviewed some of the (english sub) voice actors, and you find out that even they had to do retakes because they would start blubbing half way though a take.
:wub:

Recommended.

I just downloaded a really awesome series called Maria-sama ga Miteru. :3 It was the first shoujo-ai I'd ever seen, and I liked it! \^o^/ It was so adorable. ^__^ Anyway, I also like:

Yami no Matsuei
Gravitation (not the OVA for goodness sake!!)
Le Portrait de Petit Cossette (I have only seen the first episode, but it is eerie.. o_o..)
Cardcaptor Sakura
FLCL

... yeah... when ever I am asked something... I can never remember anything..... ;;>_>
In the name of dix, Mana is greatness. :3

My alltime favorite has to be the Macross/Robotech series. I remember back in Hawaii we grew up watching that and a few other shows every afternoon when we got home from school. And of course saturdays were the best since they hawaii tv stations played a lot of japanese shows back then.

Haibane Renmei is bittersweet sadness, Now and Then / Here and There is painful sadness.


Grave of the Fireflies is the ultimate sadness.


Remember, when it was first shown in theaters, it was part of a double-bill with My Neighbor Totoro. First you are taken to the ultimate dispair and heartache, and returned to the peak of innocence and purity of happiness.

New favourite: Yakitate!! Japan!
(yakitate = freshly baked, pan = bread)

It's about a guy who bakes bread ^o^

I also very much love YJ!!!! It's so funny!

I haven't seen the 11-12 episodes yet, even though they were fansubbed already. Have you read the manga? I haven't, as I am too lazy. Hehe.

Azuma is a very cute character. I love his hair band thing ^^

oo oo! I didn't notice that the 11-12 was out yet ^^
:GETS:

I haven't read the manga either =) But I'm happy just watching the anime. It's very well made imo. I think ken-sensei is coolest character tho ^o^ he reminds me of the afro-guy in Puni Puni Poemi <3

I noticed that we have some PGSM fans here and I would like to know if anyone else noticed the resemblance between the background music on the two shows? Are they both tv-tokyo or something? I mean they're very similar imo (which is all good <3 )

to hu5h: I didn't really hear a similarity, but I also haven't seen PGSM in a long time, so I can't remember what the music sounded like.

11-12 episode (hour long special) is very cool! You learn more about Tsukino in it ^^ I really liked it. Plus there are lots of funny parts as always!

Plus you get to see how everyone gets paired up in the finals, and who makes it and who doesn't. Very exciting episode! And appearance of a new character!! Okay, I don't want to spoil it if you haven't seen it yet, so I'll stop now.
