Any anime you recommend me to watch? >> I don't think i should get stuffs like uh DBZ etc since they are too much of it. Maybe something short that has less then 10 CD or uh less then 50 episodes.
I don't have much money. -_-;; so uh yeah....

Heh, i've never heard of them. ^_^;;
I was skimming through some last night on ebay and saw some I want.
Star ocean 2 EX- $23 (26 Episodes)
Tri Gun- $17 (26 Episodes)
Hellsing- $10 (13 Episodes)
I've includes the episodes just to see if it's the whole set so that i don't need to buy the other ones again...or in case i get ripped off. and those 3 are from the same seller so i could save money on shipping.

Meh friend has watched Star Ocean EX, I knew I reconized that sig.... (I feel stupid -_-) I recommend Happy Lesson, DEFINATELY. (Thank you, Megatokyo for showing it to me.) I just bought the D.N.Angel boxset for like....30 dollars. www.discountanimedvd.com has the best prices that I've found so far.
I have the 1 and 2 dvd for Happy Lesson, and right when I see the 3rd, Ima gonna pounce on it... I love the openning song. I recommend..

8 on the english sub, its probably a bootleg copy which depending on the company could be good or bad.

I got escaflowne for £30 on 3 discs, and it was great. Its a bootleg but who cares. Its exactly the same, just cheaper.

Some bootlegs dont work at all, they sometimes have realy bad subs if thats what you got lol

and on E-bay who knows what the hell it is

Yeah, I know what you mean about ebay. My friend from school bought this anime boxset, and when she got it, the subs were some type of joke. It was major bootleg, and it had some inappropriate images and clips from other animes.

Chicken Little

actually the excaflowne subs arent that bad its just the flow of the episodes, theres no breaks at all until the end or the start, so its really like any other anime series except bunched onto 3 discs with no extras. After all a dvd can contain all of last exil in english except the last episode yet in english it has 7 dvds. Go figure.

But i bought tekkaman blade and its a bootleg, subs are fine but the title screens at the end of the disc with no fastforward button and the title button doesnt work either. Still it auto sets to english subbing.

Then theres Star Ocean Ex also a bootleg, subs are horrible but the quality and title screen are of great quality.

So it depends on what company does it.

Yeah. I just bought the D.N.Angel boxset. I haven't watched it all yet, Ima still waiting for my cousin and friend to come over, but my brother watched it. He says that the subtitles are bad on some episodes and they're really good on others. It's probably a group project with bootleg.

Yup, it's a bootleg. But still, I have a few bootlegs, not that bad. But supporting HK illegal pirates isn't good.

I'd recommend RahXehon, ZOIDs, and Naruto(will probably have to download)

ChibiArisu

Naruto is out to buy at discountanimedvd web store. I have the manga, haven't seen the anime though. Though I do have an amv of it, it looked interesting....

Saberstar

i don't mind bootleg ones. Unless i'm a collector and wanted the real things.

ChibiArisu

I decide to buy bootleg boxsets, because most of the time it'll take like.....2-3 years, maybe even more, for the whole series to come out in english. And when it's finally dubbed, I totally despise the voice. Not all the time, but there have been cases where I scream at the TV for the lowsy dubbing.

bootleg, naruto isnt liscenced yet and only put to air in japan by TvTokyo.

Eisen you forgot the p in RahXephon but yes great anime choice.

I watched one episode of that, and it confused the hell outta meh. lol. I like the openning song though.

Chicken Little

Hemisphere, i love it and the 3 diff end themes. But yes RahXephon is very adult themed, so uits very hard to get all the themes in the firts look through, heck i still watch the first episode and am tripped out by Reika Mishimas appearance in the warzone. Then theres the whole Muu thing that i still havent gotten. But i just love the way they, as they say 'suffused the world with sound' its a great concept for an anime and the way they did it is just beyond immaculate.

Eisen

Tooth Ninja Scroll - whoops, typing a bit too fast. But I loved RahXephon, I watched all of the episodes in about 2 days or so. Very good music, awesome story line(I almost cried on one episode). Another one I would recommend is Full Metal Panic. I haven't seen very much of it, but from what I have seen, it is very cool.

oh no problem and jes call me fly or toothy like everyone else does lol but i did cry in an episode, the one with Ayato and Asahina, I juts couldnt help myself it was that emotionally well done.
