Gundam Wing is the best anime I've seen. Most, however, seem rather pathetic.

Gundam is lame compared to Martian Succesor Nadesico or (arguably) Evangelion!   (list of good anime: Fruits Basket, Love Hina, Rave, Macross etc.)

and your forget the movies: all the Myazaki movies, jin-roh, etc etc.
Gundam is good, but I just don't like the design of the mechas, they suck.

[Gortef]

Both Grey and Kami are right. Gundam Wing was really good, but Nadesico was more entertaining... heck I laughed my ass out when Akito made the "Manual Launch"
Check GundamX, I liked it a lot too, and Dual... and Vandread... and

They showed Spirited Away here in Finland about a week ago (so and so). It was part of a one festival (Love and Anarchy)... I wasn't fast enough to get tickets though (not that I would have the money either)
But someone said that it would come again to the theaters... and then I'll be ready
It will have to be REALLY good to beat Mononoke though

you can't compare, it's completly different.

ahh!!! This is turning into an anime discussion thread!!!

[Fineus]

What's wrong with that? It's still interesting discussion.

Personally I used to not see the value in Anime, but that was when I thought most/all Anime was like Pokemon - aimed at kids and overly pathetic. Like a cartoon version of the Power Rangers or something.

Suffice to say I was mis-informed, not only is Anime interesting and in many cases novel - it's an art form. Akira, Mononoke and the Evangelion series rank amongst my favourite entertainments at the moment, Akira and Mononoke certainly kicking the crap out of a lot of US cartoons and films. Evangelion is more action orientated but I've not watched all of it yet.

Suffice to say, anyone who can't see the point in Anime is either not looking hard enough, doesn't actually know what it is - or just doesn't find it to their tastes. I can cope with that, but people saying it sucks just because they assume it's all about Picachu should die horribly.

There IS a cartoon version of the Power Rangers.

If it's not related to computer games, math, or plausible sci-fi, it already sucks in my book.

Well, that doesn't prevent you from liking animes then
Wtach Gunbuster, best scifi show if you're looking for realism ( newtonian physics? bwarf, it's einstein physics there, or why is it annoying to travel at lightspeed to intercept an enemy ship )
Btw, Thunder, Evangelion is not about action at all, i won't go into that old argument ( make some searches, you'll understand what I mean ), but hardly 1/3 the series deals with action. You gotta see the two last episodes ( I like them, many people hated them ).

I'm beginning to get that impression - but I've only watched up to episode 18 so far, and most of them have involved a little bit of the old comedy "oh no, it'd be terrible if we were attacked now.." shortly before being attacked. Thus the action

However, point taken!
