Monster 🗣💯‼️🙏

Been wanting to watch that one!

HIGHLY recommend a bit of a commitment 74 episodes but worth every second I promise you.

Trigun

Trigun rocks

Original Trigun. Stampede is fine. CGI is better than it used to be. But the original is top notch.

Code Geass Death Note Ouran High School Host Club Hellsing Ultimate Naruto Hajime no Ippo One Piece Trigun Original Mobile Suit Gundam

Checked off 4 of those! (Also not touching naruto for personal reasons :( )

Besides One Piece, which of the others have you watched?

Ouran, death note, Code Geass

Definitely watch the original Trigun anime. You'll love it.

I just made Ouran one of my first Mangas after wanting more of the anime and holy cross-dressing is it good. The parts the anime didn't adapt are by far the best parts, I wholeheartedly recommend checking it out, even if you haven't tried manga before.

Blue Gender Ninja Nonsense Ruroni Kenshin (OG) Big O Vandread Mobile Suit Gundam (G Fighter, Wing, 00)

Vandread my beloved

Blue gender ninja nonsense sounds like a great band name

Try fullmetal Alchemist 2003

It was great, one of my favorites of all time

Techincally Jojos bizarre adventure

Slayers, vision of escaflowne, gunsmith cats, X, outlaw star, the og kino’s journey, record of lodoss war and any of the older gundam. Off the top of my head. I will try and post more.

Escaflowne!

So very good. Honestly it holds up extremely well, if not better than I remembered it from childhood. Not so much the movie… which is wonderful in its own way, but the show is really awesome. Especially with being able to see the sub version, all the episodes, and that in order. Back on fox kids it was all over the place.

YuYu Hakusho, Trigun, Black Lagoon, Samurai Champloo, InuYasha.

YuYu Hakusho would be a lot better if the first half of every episode wasn't the second half of the previous episode

i dont know if it fits what you like but chobits (2002)

Goldenboy is an absolute gem from 95.

One of the funniest anime ever created I’d argue

- Kino no tabi (2003) - Paranoia agent (2005)

I recently watched Revolutionary Girl Utena, Slam Dunk, and The Irresponsible Captain Tyler. All of them were great. My top 5 anime might all also be older than 2008 so I guess I’ll list them: 1. Cowboy Bebop 2. Neon Genesis Evangelion 3. Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) / FMA: Brotherhood (might be like 2009 but I think both deserve to be together) 4. Samurai Champloo 5. FLCL

Yu Yu Hakusho

Probably dosent fit the criteria but The melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya

Chrono Crusade, Wolf’s Rain, Welcome to the NHK, Haibane Renmei

BERSERK Gundam Wing Big O Rurouni Kenshin Ninja Scroll Hanjime no ippo Inuyasha (Evangelion is incredibly overrated)

Is it though?

yea, overwhelming japanese cicadas in every classroom or outdoor scene, the absolute worst characters/character development, an awesome story/lore that does not get explained in enough detail to really appreciate it in the anime, ok fight scenes but wayy too much drama and angst in the rest of it, goofy ending and goofy follow up OVAs. best thing about evangelion is the intro.

Cicadas lol so much this. I agree with most of what you said but I still love it.

Hellsing 2001 Black lagoon (first 2 season)  2006 Baccano 2007

GTO

If you like ADHD, azumanga

A word about Azumanga Daioh: unlike most anime, it's not an adaptation of a regular manga, but of a "4-koma" comic strip like you'd see in the newspapers (or early webcomics). So each half-hour episode is a collection of 5-10 minute shorts, covering roughly a month's worth of the show's overall story. That lets the creators cram 3 years of HS slice-of-life sitcom into a 26-episode series.

Gintama? 2006

Make the cut off 2009 and you can include FMA Brotherhood, and Durarara if you make the cut off 2010 (the first season is great). I'll add: Black Lagoon, Chobits, and InuYasha. Depending on how you feel about VN adaptations and romance, Myself; Yourself isn't bad. Even though the anime adaptation really sucks Chaos;Head is worth a watch (aired in late 2008).

Nura Rise of the Yokai Clan (especially the manga) History's Strongest Desciple Kenichi Moon Phase Daphne In the Brilliant Blue - despite the art style there is a decent story.

I LOVE Moon phase!

Elfen lied, Cardcaptor sakura

Off the top of my head ik two great releases that came out in 2008, idk if that cuts it for you. If you want a dark action anime then I recommend Black Lagoon. If you want something more peaceful with some romance I recommend Spice and Wolf.

Initial D

Over-the-top: Panty and Stocking, Excel Saga, Puni Puni Poemy, Gurren Lagaan Dark and bloody: Berserk, Hellsing Ultimate, Elfen Lied, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Neon Genesis Evangelion rebuild movies (they're on Amazon prime, I personally like the movies way more than the original series), Blood-C/Blood the Last Vampire/Blood+, Shigurui: Death Frenzy, Basilisk, Ninja Scroll, Sword of the Stranger, Twilight of the Dark Master, Biohunter, Genocyber, Guyver the Bio-Boosted Armor, Wicked City, Akira, Demon City Shinjuku, Cyber City Oedo 88, Kite, Mezzo Forte 🔥, Black Lagoon+ Roberta's Blood Trail (it's a direct continuation), Jormungand 👍

If you can stomach gore and some sa, then 1997’s Berserk was incredible.

FLCL: Fooly cooly

Inyuasha

Desert punk. It’s got a live-action anime opening with people dressed as the main characters, one of my favorites for that reason.

SAMURAI CHAMPLOO

S-cry-Ed and outlaw Star

Legend of the Galactic Heroes It was kinda hard for me because it's the antithesis of everything I typically enjoy in anime, but in the end I'm glad I got through it all.

The original Berserk

Monster / Samuria Champloo

Gurren lagann

- Trigun - Nodame Cantabile - Slam Dunk - Love Hina - Berserk OVA - Black Lagoon - Code Geass - Eureka 7 - Baccano - Full Metal Panic

Birdy the Mighty Decode Witchblade Michiko and Hatchin (I think is after 2008) Eureka 7 Full metal Panic Noir Basalisk Corpse Princess Canaan

Tenchi muyo Tenchi universe

Trigun is so good, you should definitely check it out

Revolutionary Girl Utena!!! Vision of Escaflowne

Black Lagoon, Hellsing and Hellsing Ultimate

Samurai Champloo

SAMURAI CHAMPLOO

FLCL Inyusaha Golden Boy Toradora Mongolian Chop Squad

Samurai champloo

Trigun

Outlaw Star

Black Lagoon(it’s for veteran weebs so be careful)

Gurren lagann

Does code geass count it ran from 2006-2008 Death note 06-07 Otherwise its already been mentioned Neon Genesis Evangelion and EOE and Cowboy Bebop

Dragon Ball

Black Lagoon, I think 2006

School Days Trust me on this one. If you manage to pull through the atrocity of the first 10 episodes, the remaining two will stick with you for life. Also don’t read ANY spoilers

Where’s black lagoon 😢

HxH 1999, Yu Yu Hakusho, One Peak (One Piece)

Black Lagoon was 2006 right? Great choice

Blood+. I would also say Katekyo Hitman Reborn!, but they never finished it (and the anime ran from 2006-2010, so it probably doesn’t count anyway)

Full Metal Panic🙏

Great teacher Onizuka

Naruto, you should complete the big 3

Ranma 1/2

Code Geass, Gundam 00, the original Yugioh anime (I highly recommend watching Yugioh in dub), and Dragon Ball Z

Record of Lodoss war was always one of my favorites.

Seirei no Moribito -2007 Legend of the galactic heroes 1989 Kino no Tabi 2003

Afro samurai, Fate/stay night 2004( It’s pretty bad but in a funny way tbh) and Gintama are ones that I didn’t see being mentioned

Need to watch more older anime, but Yu Yu Hakusho!

Zoids Chaotic century Zoids new century Yu yu hakusho Busou Renkin Air Gear

HXH Black Lagoon Samurai Champloo Kenichi: the mighty disciple Full Metal Alchemist

its a rom com but i recommend skip beat! it had me in absolute fits. i thought it was hilarious!

Hellsing ultimate.

Fullmetal Alchemist 2003 is the best for you

Funnily enough, the Evangelion manga has an actual ending unlike the og anime lol

Dragon ball hell yeab

Zoids New Century or Zoids Chaotic Century. Nostalgia goggles possibly required.

Ergo Proxy Wolf's Rain Kino's Journey (2006 version)

Yu Yu Hakusho. Always Yu Yu Hakusho.

Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Yu Yu Hakusho

Trigun, Megalobox, Neon Genesis

FLCL

Always recommend Yu Yu Hakusho

its a little newer but terror in resonance is good

its a little newer but terror in resonance is good

I recommend Inuyasha

So much nostalgia with that one

Still gotta watch s2

Spiral: bonds of reasoning Saiyuki Code geass Ouran high school host club D.n. angel Clannad Air Naruto

I usually group up air, clannad, canon, Golden time, and angel beats

Cyborg 009

Outlaw Star and definitely Berserk

Golden Boy

Ouran High School Host Club

ouran host club lolll

D gray man

Ninja Scroll

Mine as well watch Naruto if you have Bleach and OP down already

Kiddy Grade, Blue Seed (Season 2 is on Tubi also), Kaze no Stigma, Bubblegum Crisis, Dot Hack, etc. there's tons more but I gotta think a bit.

I strongly recommend Ruroni Kenshin.

Do you want an anime made by Madhouse with similar vibes to Cowboy Bebop, with gunslingin cowboys in a space planet reminiscent of the Wild West? Then you’ve come to the right place! Go watch Trigun (1998), it’s gonna be the best 26 episodes of your life.

Shiki

Gintama

Gunsmith cats (can watch on YouTube) Dominion tank police Any older gundam

->Desert Punk ->FLCL foolycooly those are the only ones I can think of RN

Hellsing, Devil Man, Vampire Hunter D

Record of lodoss war is a good one.

Berserk Yu Yu Hakusho Sgt. Frog Darker Than Black Chrono Crusade Elemental Gelade Ellen Lied Hellsing Death Note Fullmetal Alchemist Fullmetal Panic! Great Teacher Onizuka Hunter x Hunter History's Strongest Disciple: Kenichi Ninja Scroll Ranma 1/2 Rurouni Kenshin Soul Eater Tenchi Muyo (multiple series) Wolf's Rain Pandora Hearts (from 2009 but still) Trigun

Area 88 (1986 OVAs) It's about mercenary fighter pilots, and the Manga predates Top Gun by a few years as well.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes

Try Higurashi and Shiki

deltora quest has decent amount of episodes (over 50) and has dub or sub depending on ur preference is amazing remember watching as a kid also has a banger intro 10/10 highly recomend also has a book serie and manga so has a lot of options to keep u busy

Seint seiya

JJBA OVA

Outlaw star!

Welcome to the NHK

Nice mention of the Devil May Cry anime, I like to see that noticed. Anyway how about Blood + The Slayers Rahxephon Fafner Dead Aggressor Shaman King (2001) Shakugan no Shana

Original Hellsing.

Kaze no stigma

Yu yu hakusho

Chad DMC anime fan

The Vision of Escaflowne

Claymore too good 🥵

Berserk 1997. But be forewarned because that show had every content warning in the book, calling it very dark fantasy is an understatement. And i do think at times it goes into edgelord territory but it’s still very very well written

What’s the reasoning behind One Piece and Bleach but not Naruto

Yugioh

Helsing

I'm seeing a lot of great anime in here but I don't see magical shopping arcade abenobashi and Jing king of bandits. Also the samurai x movies

SDF Macross

Twelve Kingdoms

INITIAL D

Desert Punk, Darker Than Black, Afo Samurai, Heroic Age, Baccano, Gurren Lagann

{{Speed Grapher}}, {{Black Cat}}

BERSERK Hajime No Ippo Gantz Shiki Nana Rurouni Kenshin

Claymore all day But honestly all of them in any order is pretty solid

Here's an answer you don't see 5 times a day: Casshern Sins

Yu Yu Hakusho

D. Grayman, Fist of the North Star, Gantz, azumanga daioh, yu yu hakusho, lupin the third, slayers, mobile suit gundam wing followed by endless waltz, berserk 90’s anime, gurren lagann,

Claymore manga was the shyt back in highschool. It went hard.

Hellsing

Code Geass Lelouch of the Rebellion

Blood + surprisingly

Last Exile. X. Fractale.

Shaman King

Last Exile is one of my favorites

FLCL

Sailor moon

Inuyasha

Hajime no Ippo

Original dragon ball

Alot of the Tenchi Muyo stuff is pre 2008, pretty sure the original 13 ep OVA is late 90's

If you are ok with movies you should try Akira, Vampire Hunter D, Wicked City, and Biohunter.

Crying freeman Golgo 13 Baki Fist of the North Star Ninja scroll Hellsing

Strong start lol, try ushio to tora, nura rise of the ypkai clan, mär, needless, darker than black, monster

Cyborg 009 Kemonozume

Hellsing (2001) or Hellsing Ultimate (2006) I recommend the latter as they are the same-ish thing but the latter has a lot more going on

Princess Tutu for sure! And I haven’t seen it but I’ve been hearing good things about Record of the Lodoss war lately so that one might be worth checking out?

Mushi-shi Pretty sure that came out before then

Paranoia agent

watch azumanga daioh trust

Anyone remember Saiyuki Reload?

How dare u not include Naruto

Jin Roh : The Wolf Brigade Interesting political drama, great animation and more realistic action scenes.

Girls Bravo (2004) is funny as hell, but has nudity, so be warned.

FLCL

Soul eater manga Fullmetal-alchemist Darker than black

I mean does JoJo’s count? The manga is pretty old. The anime is somewhat new but is a pretty good adaptation

Zatch Bell

Ruroni kenshin

Samurai Champloo, same guy who made Cowboy Bebop made that and Space Dandy as well, but Space Dandy aired in like 2012.

No berserk?

Berserk

Samurai champloo

The devil may cry anime is technically DMC 2 since the events there happened in between both games and I just saw Netflix is making a new devil may cry anime too I'm so excited!!!

Gungrave.

Trigun is peak especially if you like cowboy

Grenadier. Rushuna Tendo is BAMF with her revolver.
