Title: Need new anime
Post by: Dealrith on October 02, 2007, 07:51:35 pm

I'm not sure if this is where I should be posting this....but I am in need of some new anime to scavage for and I'm not sure what that anime might be.
I have in the past drifted more towards the mech style animes like Gundam and Full Metal Panic but I also enjoy Crest of the Stars and Trigun.
If anyone has any suggestions please through them up with atleast a small description of them.

Thanx

After reading the mecha comment....

IGPX
(Bear with me here.  It's been a while since I watched it.)
- IGPX is a mecha-racing anime.  6 teams (each consisting of 3 people) compete against each other (1 team vs. 1 team) in mechs around a race track going about 400 mph.  The series follows Takeshi and team Satomi as they start as the new rookies to enter the IG1 league after winning the IG2 championship.  Their goal is to become the champions of the IG1.
The story includes a nice balance of racing and life outside the race track with drama with a small mix of comedy in it.

Karin!! karin Karin!!!

i LOVE this anime is so funny!!!
The story revolves around the title character, Karin, the middle child in a family of vampires who immigrated to Japan two centuries earlier. However, Karin is different from the rest of the family in that she produces blood instead of feeding on it; and espsuly when shes around people that are sad or depressed, she has to bite some one and inject blood into them (they get rejuvenated from it) other wise
she gets a voilent massive nose bleed that looks like some one died
now enter boy who has a scary face protects er secret and cleans up her nose bleeds and makes her have them

can they fall in love?

Karin doesn't have any mechs :P 

Though I think the ending is amazing.

Have you watched escaflowne?  Full metal panic and Escaflowne are the only big robot animes that I like.

There's Martian Successor Nadesico! That's a good space/mecca-ish one!
