Hi guys, I´m looking for an anime similar to Elfenlied, Basilisk or Phantom :Requiem for the Phantom. Just got into these a week ago, but now I´m only finding rather "childish" series. Side plot lovestories, dark fighting oriented main plot and not too shallow characters is what I enjoyed most about those listed above. Any input appreciated.

This is just on my mind since it was mentioned recently, but if you liked Phantom maybe you'd enjoy the so-called "girls with guns" trilogy from the same director, Kouichi Mashimo. Namely: Noir, Madlax, and el Cazador de la Bruja.

I had a feeling this sort of thing was going to happen lol......woulved liked a sad ending but oh well And nooooooooooooooo i wanted asuna x negi sad face Kinda sad its ending
I don't know what to say about the turn of events in these past couple chapters. You remember that tearful farewell to Asuna and Asuna crying over the fact that all her friends are dead? Forget all those emotions. Here's time traveling! I guessed that they were gonna use it, but I didn't think they'd use it this quickly. Oh well...I'm expecting too much. This series seemed to fall apart in the past 50 or so chapters.
I'm guessing Negi likes Evangeline. If not, I hope it's Yue.
Honestly, best JRPG from over the past 10 years (I think story-wise it's one of the best ever)... I don't even care that this is just a fanservice OVA so good. Also Renne, so good.

I recently finished watching Full Metal Alchemist, both the 2003 one and Brotherhood. I loved both of them, although I have a slight preference towards the 2003 version, but both are extremely awesome never the less. These 2 are probably my favorite anime series.
One that I also just finished catching up on was Gintama. This series is SICK nice. Really. They have some really nice arcs with a lot of touching messages, but mostly just jokes. ALOT of jokes. And its fucking hilarious. This is one I can definitively recommend.
Another one that I watched along time ago was Elfen Lied . This one is a short series of 12 episode which is also really cool. If you like violence, this is one for you.
The next series I'm gonna watch is either Death Note or Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. And yes, the only reason I want to watch Tengen Toppa is because Yoko looks so damn nice. Anyways, do you guys have recommendations? Which one would you watch?
Elfen Lied? 2004. 8 years old, impossible to watch, too old. Death Note? That's like 5 years old, also too old. TTGL? Also like 5 years old. Old crap, impossible to watch, I can only watch modern visual masterpieces like Ika Musume and Infinite Stratos.
Wut? No way man, I've watched both recently ( finished gurren lagann yesterday) and I thoroughly enjoyed them. Both death note and TTGL are worth watching.
Wow the first half of the series was actually kinda normal I guess, I enjoyed it. The second half was just insany batshit crazy. It was just one power trip after another and every episode they went wilder. At the end they were throwing entire galaxies at each other in the 10th dimension wtf? Only reason I started watching was because of Yoko and after seeing the video when I'm bored I thought it was going to be a pretty light hearted anime. It didn't turn out to be anything like that though. Still I thoroughly enjoyed every second of it, and the ending was really solid.

Since before the anime started, actually. New girl rule is almost never broken. For harem genre, Mashiro broke the first girl rule and that went horribly wrong. + Show Spoiler +
Only uncertainty is who Tetsurou will choose. I prefer Mio's long hair but he seems to like it. I just realized Kanna is the most ignorant person in the series now that Mio confessed last ep. Space drama is unneeded and unwanted as I said last week, although I'm curious where they plan to take this. Lemon messing with everyone is as entertaining as ever and the Tamura Yukari forever 17 joke was appreciated. edit: oh wow just found out her birthday was yesterday/today. That makes the joke even better!
Lemon might have the same disease as Ichigo (I think that was her name) & the MC in Onegai Teacher. I think the series come from the same author (or something) as well
Has anybody considered a ending with TesturoxMio, KaitoxIchika & KannaxLemon? I know it seems stupid, but it takes away the problem of Kanna being left out. Ofc, the triangle Tetsu/Mio/Kanna could go any way, but let's say Mio & Tetsu end up together. Maybe Lemon wins her over with the power of Dynamite Drink, lol IDK.

Truth.
Dat Renne. Well, I think that chances are against her getting killed considering how the Sora cast plot hax'd through everything. If they are going to off someone anytime soon it'll be Cassius.
