Plea for Help for my Xmas List
Hey hoo,
Guess, what?
Yes, this is Arccie actually speaking. I'm not dead. (groans of disappointment are not appreciated thank you very much!!!)
I've started working on my fanfics again, so I'll try and be productive and actually publish something in my other journal sometime soon. I feel like such a slacker. I think it's been about 3 months since I actually did any writing (and I have soo forgotten my writing style, I've mangled it with other influences)
Anyway, I need some help to pick out my christmas present. I'm shipping over an anime boxset, but I don't know what to choose. Any help or thoughts at all will be of great help.
What do I like in an anime series?
Well, pretty (slashable) boys are always appreciated.
Good quality art/animation (preeety is good)
Good plot line, with an acceptable satisfying end (no...build up to the climax, build up build up and then "flop")...and when I mean plot, I mean actual plot PoT crack story lines are OK, but EXCEL saga, not really my thing.
I probably prefer action series, or at least series that have a fair deal of actionable scenes (I like Fruits Basket, but examining my collection it seems one of the rare series that isn't full of action)
Oh, and preferable main characters that aren't annoying i.e. don't want to make me smother myself with a pillow in embarassment of them or that spend the entire time bragging.
This is the list of possible animes:
(ones I actually know something about)
Outlaw Star
Samurai Deeper Kyo
Rurouni Kenshin
Escaflowne
Rahxephon
Sorcerer Hunters
Peacemaker
Pilot Candidate
GadGuard
Wolf's Rain
Generator Gawl
Chrono Crusade
Hack Sign
Arjuna
(ones I've heard are good, but know nothing about)
Berserk
Irresponsible Captain Tylor
Yukikaze
Lodoss War
Aquarian Age
Betterman
Soul Hunter
Wild Arms
Dai-Guard
Android Kikaider
Kaleido Star
Key the Metal Idol
...Yes I know that's a long list, but I'm an indecisive person, and I'm all like "ooh ANIME!"
Any other series recommendations would be cool, and I can take them into consideration for birthday and christmas's later on.
I really want GSeed, Saiyuki and Soukyu no Fafner (the main character is so almost another Kira), but as no box sets, it's too expensive to get them shipped over here.
Oh christmas time, oh christmas time, why are you making my life difficult?

Again with Peacemaker, greg brought me in and the story kept me. I love men with swords....alos Samurai 7 is awseome...*hides the credits where it says Greg's name*
Okay! I admit it! I stalk the man through anime...but he did Kaworu Nagisa in Direcotrs cut Eva....the man has skills! ANd is SO awesome!!!
I own Wolfs Rain and Samurai Deeper Kyo. Both are FABULOUS. Again in Kyo -- smexy men with swords....you gotta love it!
GSeed and GSeed Destiny are AMAZING....and I think GSeed is Boxed. *blinks* pretty sure...I will check and get back to you. Saiyuki is lovely. Um with reload...um...good story...BAD dubbing...*mutters about it being Hakkai and not Hawk Eye* Sorry....mini rant. But everyone MUST own Saiyuki. *nod nod*
Okay and I have now babbled your ear off...sorry bout that!!
no subject
...he did Kaworu *loves*
So shiny and pretty and Kaworu!!!
I want so many animes...I really need a job to support my habit.
What's the storyling of Samurai Deeper Kyo like? Good plot? Annoying female characters abound?
OOOOHHHHHH
If you find a GSeed box set can you tell me where. I want I want I want.
Such preeetyness.
Same thing with Saiyuki...can only find a set of 9 box sets to make up the series...I want it all at once.
*pouts*
Thanks for the halp.
