Need some on picking anime! Please help

[Paladin21]

Hey guys I am going to buy my sisters Aza Managa Dioh for their birthday and I wanted to pick up some extra anime for me and my wife to watch.

Right now I have G Gundam, Trigun and Outlaw Star. I am looking for things that have little swearing at most. And have very little (if any) sexual things to them.

I am looking into Samurai Champoo , S-Cry-ed-S, Inuyasha (I know this is one is fine) and maybe Bleach or Naurto.

Can anyone tell me how the content is on these. I have watched a little Samurai Champoo and it looked a little "risky" I have watched S-Cry and it looked fine, I have no clue on Bleach and Naurto.

I haven't seen Bleach or Naurto..but a great anime series is "Haibane Renmai" (pronounced hi-ban-aye ren-maye)
It's really well done and the worst swear word is damn. Plus there's no revealing clothing or sex.
It's really good for everyone!

Samarai Champloo excells in deviating from cliche run-of-the-mill action shows. But it is very "risky", and isn't the least bit suitable for kids. Be warned.

Naruto is pretty good, and not a lot of risky stuff in it.


But if you really would like something highly enjoyable, and above all excellent, you might want to look for a slightly older series called "Hana Yori Dango". This anime is a beautiful series. It's one of those few romance works which never gets corny, and any guy will enjoy, and all women will love. If you hate going on E-Bay, make this one exception. I gaurantee you will PM me thanking me over and over after you watch it.

BTW this Paladin21 just my wifes SN I cant find the log out button.

When you say risky how risky is it. I am just talking in the sex end of things.

I will take a look at those other animes I have seen then mentioned a few times as very clean. I was thinking about picking up Last Excile, that looked like a fun anime and cheap also. I LOVE Trigun out of any anime, very clean on sex end and very good story.

I can't tell you anything about naruto, I've watched about 3 episodes and never really got into the story. Maybe that was the fault of the american editing though?
I have watched a good deal of bleach (watched episode 71 this morning in fact) It's a really good anime. There is some cussing, but very little sexual innuendo or such things. I'm assuming you know some of the story, because i've met a few people who have been offended by the spirits and alternate religious views like shinto and buddhism.
In any case I've very much enjoyed it so far, but I must warn you, me and my brother foresee it being a dragon-ball Z length series........

Naruto just kicks @ss, it's just too awesome, I'm totally hooked....I'm on the 180th episode and I can tell you that it doesn't get really good until the 30th-60th episode. Naruto is also very clean, unlike Full Metal Alchemist which I've finished, which is also awesome as far as the idea and plot goes, but the graphics can be disturbing at times. Dot Hack is definitely another good one to get hooked on.

 

[Jenka]

Yeah, Full metal alchemist can be gross.
Has anyone ever heard of "Witch Hunter Robin"? It's a great series and good anime, but no one else has ever heard of it.

~Jenka

 

[Paladin21]

I am wondering how FMA can be gross? On the sex wise I am not following, some of the demonic things can get a little much but that is different.

 

[shirono]

~Jenka

Yeah I loved this series, I watched it all in japanese with subtitles though.....Can't stand the english voices after that.

well yes it's not got sex in it......what demonic things? Sure it has transmutation circles, but I never saw them as demonic. I think he means that if you watch the unedited japanese version or DVD version there is a lot of blood and sometimes it can be very disturbing.

 

[PonyBoy&Dally]

Maybe Sailor Moon?? Thats pretty good. Its rated T for teen in the manga but the show is funny. I have been watching it since I was like.....5?? 6 maybe??? naruto is fine. I read and watch the anime. Its really nothing big. There is a little blood but like I said nothing to big. There is alot of fighting though.

 

[Jenka]

I loved Sailor Moon.

FMA is gory, and I'm not too big on that. Even animated gore turns my stomach.
What about Spirited Away?! That was great movie! I loved the little soot sprites. Try out all the Ghibi movies. they're pretty good.

~Jenka

 

[-Kuro]

Hagane no Renkinjutsushi is really cool!
(FMA)
the circles aren't demonic!
and the show is (kind of) educational!lol
and what gore?
I dont remember any gore!

 

[Jenka]

Blegh! I saw maybe two episodes and all I remember is gory grossness. Then again, maybe I'm sensitve but I don't think so. (likes scary movies so I'm used to see gore)

I dunno..I just didn't like it

 

[FireLight09]

Fullmetal Alchemist can be good if you want a thought provoking anime. There's a lot of lessons to be learned from the show, and it has a very good blend of comedy, action, and drama. If you like a good story and can stand a little violence and blood/gore, this is a very good choice. You get everything from insanely funny times to tear-jerking dramatic moments, it's a great show. And it's not witchcraft, people, go do your research on alchemy.

Naruto's fun, too. I personally read the manga because the fillers in the anime can get quite annoying at times but it is a real good show. As you go through the series you really just get to know and learn about everyone in the show, which by the end can really make for heated battles and a good, solid storyline. As far as anything bad about it, there isn't too much, aside from the occasional sexual jokes you would see in a lot of other animes anyways. There's no full-blown nudity (from what I know).

They're both good shows, if you ever want to check them out. Personally, if you want more action, go Naruto, if you want more story, go FMA. But go both if you can. n.n

 

[PonyBoy&Dally]

How about Bobobobobo-bobobo?? That is random and funny.

 

[Qyöt27]

Let's see...

Ah! My Goddess (distinction here: the OVA/mini-series is marketed as Oh My Goddess!, the movie, TV series, and shorts are marketed as Ah!) has very little objectionable material in it (there's only a short nude transformation scene in the 5th episode of the mini-series and it's quite conservative by modern standards - of cource, the mini-series was done in 1992; there's also a short semi-nude scene in the movie). Otherwise it's a light-hearted, sweet romantic comedy series.

Robotech/Macross shouldn't have anything objectionable in it. It's just the archetypical mecha anime series (along with the original Mobile Suit Gundam, Macross was the series that actually helped kicked off that craze; Robotech is the result of American distributors editing Macross and two other unrelated series together into a single expansive plotline because TV standards in 1985 didn't allow for a series that was only like 40 episodes long).

School Rumble might also be appropriate. Very little in the way of sexual innuendo from what I've watched so far (up to, not including episode 15). It can be roughly compared to Azumanga Daioh in that it's in a school setting and the comedy aspect is somewhat random, but the difference is that School Rumble has 1) a plot; 2) is a romantic comedy; and 3) actually has semblance of a direction corresponding to that plot. It also reminds me a lot of high school and the inevitable pining-over-the-one-you-like situation.

Well, those are my suggestions. There's probably a few more I'm forgetting but that's a good sampling.

 

[PonyBoy&Dally]

Oh! My Goddess has alot of Nudity in as far as I've read

 

[Qyöt27]

I'm referring to the anime, not the manga.

Oh sry....

Well, it's gonna be a few months before Bleach even hits the States, so you won't have much luck with that one.

I would sugest my old favorite (Still one of my top 5 animes actually) Rurouni Kenshin. It has something for everyone. Sword fighting for the guys, romance for the ladies, and comedy for everyone.
