#AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER EPISODE 2 ANIME FREAK SERIES#

This series is cold, but for at least the first season you can see where it’s coming from. Action that keeps you pumped, dark subject matter, and a kind of grotesque nature keeps you guessing. In a world where some nameless calamity has stuck the Earth and imprisoned it under a cloud that has stars symbolizing people with special powers, our tale follows a clandestine group who does dirty work for a shady organization who is exploiting those individuals. But quality animation, a fantastic score, and really good voice acting makes this series shine.Īnother series where the second season just royally fucked the quality, this series was about darkness all around. Were it not for the ending which is kind of dull, this show would be able to easily stack up to the more famous predecessor. A show about aliens who look like us, machines that are golems made of stone, and a focus on music and the power of sound, this was a very grim series that I would argue was better than the series it was riffing on, in more ways than one. In fact, I would say that it perfected it. Which took the formula for Eva and actually went further with it.

However, then you get series like this one. Most of them never even went past the line of derivative, with people seeing them for the schlock that they are. I miss this style of cinema, but anime is keeping the flame alive.Īfter the success of Evangelion and what a cultural icon it became, there were a TON of imitators out there.

With an amazing cast of characters, all of whom are complete scumbags, you have a series that is morally gray in the extreme, and too much fun to watch. It’s like someone wanted to bring the 80’s out of its hiding place and put it in the 21st century. It has violent shootouts, insane villains, and absolutely zero subtlety. This series has some of the best dub work of all time. Telling the story of a band of mercs for hire – the Lagoon Company. What do you get when you combine an 80’s action hero, Studio Madhouse action, and one of the most dark and violent gunplay styles ever made? You get this series. Here are the top 20 favorite anime that I have. So now I am going to put out the definitive list. However, now that it’s been a few years, and I have become more familiar with more series, and have rewatched some of the ones on my list previously, my opinions have changed somewhat. A long time ago, I did a post where I discussed my top 15 favorite anime series.
