There was a fair amount of nudity, but I don't think I'd call any of it fan service in Elfen Lied. Not one of my favorite anime, but I believe my first? It was a long time ago. I think it gets over-hyped. Not bad, but I don't think it really deserves its front-row ticket to every suggested anime list in the world.

Rave Master is from the same person who made Fairy Tail, it's a bit more odd though. Reborn, I'm not too sure if there is any other series by the same person.
D.gray-man is pretty good, a bit darker, but a good amount of humor.
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann is good too (like the people down there suggested)
One Piece is really long, but it's a funny action series, so you may like it too.

responds to bigotry by posting word that actively objectifies women. +1 for effort
Comment has been collapsed.
that's why she got a +1 for effort, i agree that using the word gay as an insult doesn't make much sense.

Is a woman. +1 for not giving a shit.
You can't honestly tell me you've never used a word like "bitch" either, which just as actively objectifies women.
There's nothing wrong with being gay and people use it to mean something is stupid or lame. There's nothing negative about it so it shouldn't be used negatively.

i've used the words bitch, cunt, and gay as insults before at various points in my life. it doesn't make it correct (I attended a middle school, that tends to happen.) but your argument falls on it's face when you say that you shouldn't use gay to mean lame or stupid, when the exact same is true of the word cunt. to clarify, i do agree with what you said, but you framed it illogically.
Comment has been collapsed.
From my understanding the word cunt is just as often used as slang for a certain female body part as it is as a derogatory name for a woman. You can't really argue that one meaning came before the other or is the "right" one.
Using "cunt" as a derogatory name for a person, any person, is nowhere near the same as using "gay" in a negative manner because "gay" is being prejudiced and oppressive to gay people. "Cunt" in itself is not synonymous with "woman" and therefore it's not necessarily prejudiced or oppressive to women. That particular definition of "cunt" is what makes it derogatory, not its usage in itself, like using "gay" in such a manner.
This all made more sense in my head but I'm bad at explaining things.
At any rate, that's my logic and reasoning as to why it's not the same and whether you agree or not is your own issue. I'm a woman, I'm also gay, so these are important things to me. Hopefully I don't come off as insensitive on either issue.
At least we agree on the main, base issue here - he's being homophobic, not cool. I guess that's the important part.

i see what you are saying, cunt is more universal in its defamation of others whereas gay focuses on homosexuals much tighter. be that as it may, the degree of severity didn't factor into my argument. just be aware of what you are saying lol

I used to think that "bitch" was gender-neutral, until I learned what it meant.

It isn't for everybody. I liked it, but if you were bored with it more than 5 episodes in, I wouldn't push yourself to watch it. Stylistically it really doesn't change much, and honestly it dumps a few of the best characters part way through, so in ways it gets worse.
I loved it, but I think when suggesting stuff you have to accept how incredibly subjective taste in media is.

You mean the protagonist, right? The main antagonist is there from the beginning of first episode ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
I was being a bit tongue-in-cheek (I love Light's polarising effect), but to be honest, I'm well-aware that protagonist doesn't mean "good guy". I see Light as the antagonist because the story quickly sets him up as a seemingly untouchable menace, and then moves on to focus on L's campaign to stop him while Light creates obstacles which the protagonists need to overcome. It could be argued that there are two threads to the story mirroring each other and that Light and L are each both protagonist and antagonist (again, not talking about good or bad) but I can't agree that Light isn't an antagonist at all.

Samurai Champloo. This is coming from a guy who dislikes anime in general so you can assume its pretty good

People like him make me want to be a brony. Of course, that would make me a Homestuck AND a brony, and about 1/2 of the Earth's population would hate me for no reason.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hah, silly you, I've watched around ~12 Episodes, I really tried to enjoy it, but because I am not introverted like most bronies and I know how to keep up a friendship I don't need to watch a show for little kids to learn how to have friends.
It's literally the same niveau as Dora, or similiar.

Well I'm not sure if that will change your opinion, but all of the caracters have "mental breakdowns" it's not like something you would put in a "kids show". Also they have the best Voice actresses/actors. And throw in "adult" jokes here and there.
Also, I don't watch it to learn how to make friends, it's just REALLY nice to have some kind of "good" tv show that's not about rainbows and butterflys and neither about death murder and hate. It just makes you feel good.

Well, the Animators are doing some REALLY great job there. If ANYBODY here ever made a Flash Animation you will see how much work this was/is. But it's not like JUST the amount of work makes it a good show, it's the love and the "spirit" that, Lauren Faust, the writers, the animators, the voice actors, and all of the staff puts into this show.

YOU SIR SHOULD KILL YOURSELF, jk, but did you watched the english version? Becuase yes, the american version sucked. I watched it on spanish and is part of my childhood...you should give it a try on japanese: dragon ball, dragon ball z and dragon ball gt...and maybe kai even though it ends on the cell saga
Comment has been collapsed.
Give it a try in Japanese, in the english version they censored A LOT of stuff, the latin american version didn't, well in Cartoon Network Toonami tehy censored too, but in other channels they didn't. Watch it in Japanese so you can watch the real thing uncensored....

Eh, I wouldn't say scare but I had to take a break after watching episode 5. I feel like I got more mind raped than the character who was being mind raped.
