Top 5 Animes!
Lets say you are on your way to the path of greatness. You’ve been traveling this path for almost a decade. And, the prize, the goal, is just barely in your grasp. Suddenly, another path to even greater greatness exists along the way. If you would have taken your original path, these other path will disappear, and will only resurface again in a couple of years. However, if you were to choose this new path, the chances of failing is greater, hence you’ll be more at risk. Furthermore, the original path will disappear, leaving you at right where you started if you fail. It’s a risk versus greatness trade off.Which one shall you choose? Which one I chose? Hmm..until this very day, to tell you the truth, I am still contemplating between my choices. Insyallah, the path that I have chosen is the most optimum path for me.
Enough with choices, goals and life. Today, I shall present to you, my top 5 anime(complete) series that I have seen.
5. SUZUKA
Suzuka is a love story, a very highly complicated intertwining love story that is, between 2 athletes. It contains A LOT of romantic scenes, my favorite being the "Firefly" Confession scene. Dude, that scene permeates my soul. For all you Boys Be fans, you’ll love this. By the way, seeing this anime doesn’t reduce you to "mat jiwang"..nope nope..I disagree..:p
4. TRIGUN
"To save the butterfly, you must kill the spider."
Dude, that line is still awesome, even though after 5 years. That use to be my sig. Anyway, Trigun is an action/comedy anime which follows the trials and tribulations of Vasheee The Stampeeedoo…he is like Himura Kenshin, vow not to kill but totally skilled at killing and also a bit of a goof off. Unlike Kenshin, Vash uses a gun and has family issues. Huh, there was a time in my life when I thought yellow tinted sunglasses was cool, all thanks to Trigun. If you like Rurouni Kenshin, you’ll love Trigun.
3. HONEY AND CLOVER
Honey and Clover ran for 2 seasons(Animax only shows Season 1), and the storyline was just amazing. Every character they introduced, will have their own back story. All in all, it’s a huge intertwining story. Many have categorized this anime as a "Slice of Life" genre, whatever that means. My favorite character out of the bunch is Morita Shinobu. Wacky, crazy, genius, lazy, talented…man that guy is just cool. The only thing that disappoints me is the ending(2nd season). Oh yah, the part with the little girl and flying glasses is just disturbing. They are trying to mix J-Pop with snuff..ewwhh.
2. RUROUNI KENSHIN OVA 1
The anime sucks, because after fighting Shishio, it went downhill from there. If only the anime would have followed the manga… The 2nd OVA, showing Kenshin growing old and having some sort of STD(TB? I don’t know.) and died due to do that has ruined my perspective of the Battousai. It is just sad to see it happened to Kenshin. The best Rurouni Kenshin series is the 1st OVA which consists of 4 episodes. This OVA shows Kenshin when he was a Battousai and how did the scar on his face occurred. Full of violence, realistic fight scenes..and of course, a love story to boot. I’ve seen this OVA 5 years ago, and it is still one of the best anime that I’ve seen, nuff said.
1.DEATH NOTE
"Watashiwa L des.."
The best anime I’ve seen. Yagami Light, L, M, N..most of the characters are just pure cool-age. The pure awesomeness of this anime is indescribable through my limited range of vocabulary. It is just that good. A must watch. Oh yah, L dies by the way(unlike the Death Note movies) and the death scene is orchestrated beautifully and symbolically . Epitome of awesomeness indeed. Period.
There are two kinds of people in this life:
Those who walk into a room and say,
"Well, here I am!"
And those who walk in and say,
"Ahh, there you are."
