Death Note

Death Note is an excellent and suspenseful anime, but it also focuses on murder and the ability to kill at will and what happens when someone gets that power. The character starts by only executing criminals he feels has escaped justice but he eventually becomes an egomaniac monster ("Light" the main character was always an egomaniac to begin with I think). I had problems with this myself, there were people that I wished dead, or that I felt the world would be better off without (to be honest, I thought that my world would be better off without them). I always justified my resentment or feelings towards them. If I had had a Death Note (a notebook you can write someone's name in and they die), I probably would have used it and become just like Light. Even though I never harmed anyone, I was harming myself. Eventually I became convicted that like Light, I had murder in my heart and repented.

1 John 3:15 helped me.

I fell in love with a series called Assassination classroom. It's a action and a comedy in one about a human like creature who says he will destroy the earth in one year unless someone can kill him . He also has one request....to teach a class of delinquent school children during that year. You find out why as the eventually goes on. It's on animefreak and hulu.

Imma be girly and go with Fruits Basket. I've liked a lot of other stuff too, but Fruits Basket was my first manga (technically, I didn't see the anime until much later and it isn't as good). I haven't watched any anime in a while though.

If Avatar: The Last Airbender counts though... that might beat Fruits Basket.

What's your favorite anime series and why?

Me, personally, I don't know. But Dragon Ball Z and Death Note would likely be on top...

I honestly can't decide which ones are my favorites. lol

Space Brothers! (Uchuu Kyoudai)
Its realistic, emotional, funny, quirky, I love this anime so much! (So mUCH FEELS)
Also, the anime, Higurashi, because I love the thrill, mystery, suspense and life lessons! (But I hate the gore)

I admit I liked Higurashi the first time I watched it. I haven’t been able to go back and enjoy it nearly as much, I think because I got tired of the lead guys being lame.

I will have to check out Space Brothers sometime

Welcome to the NHK!; it's my favorite as I identify with the main character's struggles in life. Also does great blending comedy and seriousness, when watching the show you have moments where it's laughable and then before you notice it's sad.

My favorite anime series are Naruto, Attack on Titan, Erased and Noragami. I have wayyy more favorites then this but I really love Naruto because it has to do with someone who was doubted on by everyone and had a lot of people discouraging him, but he was able to reach the top from his own confidence and strength and went on to be admired by everyone in the shinobi world and right now in my life I feel like Im at the part where everyone looks down on me and I feel like Im not good enough so I one day hope to admired by many and have the respect that Naruto earned.

To be honest I feared I would be judged for being an anime fan but here, YAYZIES! Favorite animes would be 1, ONE PIECE! Luffy is so inspiring and I love his crewmates and their stories and how they all stand together WOO! Luffy reminds me very much of Naruto because when you look at Luffy, most people think he's crazy. And when they actually realize he's serious its way too late to stop him. He doesnt give up, and never lets anyone hold him back, it is absolutely beautiful! He also refuses to let his friends and anyone he meets stay down in the dumps which speaks to me. Dragonball Super has been really good too with its action and what not. I love Sword Art Online (looking so forward to SAO 3) and Death Note as well and I need to finish Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc V. Death Note's main character is wrong for his desire to murder, but you know Light originally meant well. Trouble is that power corrupted him into thinking that he is a god. But our Lord Jesus is the one True God. Not Beerus from DB Super, not Light, no god but the great I AM. And it may not be considered japanese anime but I too am a big ATLAB fan. :) OH MAN I LOVE HOW YOU GUYS ARE ALSO ANIME AND MANGA FANS YAY! I feel right at home here. Sorry if Im rambling, I've adhd and dont get to really talk much so yeah. :p

My all time favorite is probably Yu Yu Hakusho. I watched that so many times back when it was on TV and I never get tired of it. More recent favorites would be Mushishi (just so chill to watch,) Terror in Resonance, and Ore Monogatari is adorable.

I know some people get touchy about what anime is qualified as, but I'm going to say "Avatar: The Last Airbender", and to heck with the consequences!

I also really like RWBY, but that may be subject to change if they start pushing LGBT stuff too strongly. (I can tolerate alternate opinions, but I don't like it when people shove theirs in your face.) Still, great show. And the combat is some of the best I've ever seen in a show. Not even slightly realistic, but awesome.

Oh, and of course, I like everyone's favorite anime: Spongebob Squarepants. (Yes, I am trolling a bit with that one.)
