Important question to ask: Am I going to have to like mecha anime to fully enjoy this show? The answer is yah, you will have to like mechas, cuz that is what this show is all about.
Heres a quick summary. The good guy group has super mechas called Gundams. These Gundams are far superior to the rest of the worlds mecha designs and give them an advantage in all fights. Since at this time in the world most of all the wars in the world are fought using these giant mechas suits, having a advantage in technology gives you the edge in each and every
...
fight. The goal of the Gundam pilots is to cause such a great war and then defeat all the other mechas suits putting the world in a peaceful state. So there plan is to have one war to end all wars.
This sounds like a good idea but then the morals of all the people you have to kill come in the way. And this is why not everyone can go along with the Gundams sense of justice.
Now each of the Gundam pilots are very interesting characters, and throught the show you will get a slight back story to why each of them is a Gundam pilot and what struggles they are going through while piloting these powerful machines.
Theres a little bit of a love story thrown in with all the high action fights, and most of the battle turn into strategic fights just as much as they are about hundreds of mobiles suits against the few Gundam Pilots.
The best fights in this show are definitely the space fights, since in this time there are huge space colonies for people to live in, in space.
One great thing is even after the shows end, you can still get some more great story and a follow up on the characters after the show, through the movie Endless Waltz. If you enjoy the show you will be pumped to see the movie and the movie is very well done.
I suggest mecha fans to defiantly watch this show, but also If your on the border of liking mechas shows or never seen one, give this show a try, cuz i think its one of the best mechas out there.

To start, yes you probably have to be a baseball lover to completely enjoy this movie as much as I did, i wont say you can hate baseball and you will still give it a 9 or a 10.
Now Ill say that this was one great baseball movie! The characters pretty much all balanced each other out like they should for a good baseball team to work well together.
The main character is a guy who is highly skilled in baseball and loves baseball with all his heart. His goal isnt to be the best player on the team, its to help his team members get
...
better so they can all enjoy winning together.
In movies its hard to tell a lot cuz you can ruin it but, Ill tell you the main character goes through some hard decisions on whether hes risking his future baseball career or not helping his team like he wants.
This struggle just shows how much he cares for his team.
I recommend people definitely watch this if they love baseball, but also those that like movies or shows about how strong and how important friendship is to people.

Ill say flat out, THIS IS THE BEST POKEMON MOVIE EVER!!!
Yah that might not be saying much to some of you people out there, but.... there was a time in mine, and almost ever person my ages elementary school, when Pokemon is what made you cool, or made you the person with nothing to talk about.
This movie introduces you to Mew and MewTwo which were like special pokemon back when Pokemon seemed limited to 150-152.
The plot is Ash and the gang get invited to this Island by a mysterious person. When they get there they get thrown into an event that tests the bond they
...
have made with there pokemon, and the bond people have to pokemon. You get to see the evolved forms of many of the favorite Pokemon in this movie.
I dont want to ruin the plot too much but the story is pretty darn great. Iv watched a few of the later movies after this one, and Ill tell you they just dont live up to the original. Iv seen this movie at least 6 times, and though im passed the never ending story of the pokemon show, ill still watch this movie anytime it gets put on Cartoon Network, just cuz it was good.

Another great show i had the privilege to see thanks to Adult Swim, and with that said you probably know some great shows Adult Swim has gave us.
Is this show like Bleach?- Yah its like this show, but its actually better because the fights are a lot more interesting, and there are way way way way way less fillers going on in this show.
Its a shounen show so you can be assure you will be introduced to a character with minor special abilities that towards the end get much more powerful. I'm a huge fan of that and this show does it in a great
...
way. I liked the progression the characters made in strength and skill due to hard training and life and death fights.
The main character is a thug who is wasting his life when he saves a girl who is gonna be hit by a truck. When this happens through some luck he gets to become a spirit detective, which basically means he has to go and beat the demons that just don't play nice in the real world.
Shortly after the introduction episodes, he gets sent on the first big story arc to a demon world, this is when you will understand the shows true highlights and will get wrapped up in the fights.

Lets start by saying if you like shounens you will like this show even though its not a shounen : ).
What i mean by that is this is definately one of those shows where they take the weak kid in the school who gets bullied, and make them into the hero, through hard work and perseverance.
In my opinions sports animes are less about the sports and more about the characters and the back story. And in this series you get AMAZING characters and a great back story.
Ill tell you this show is one of the funniest shows i have seen. Yes its about a serious
...
sport like boxing, but like i said it has one great back story. The relationship between Ippo and the other boxers in the gym hes at is hysterical. The show has such great characters that not all the time is the show about Ippo, the main character. But at times it can go off on the other characters and you wont find yourself angry thinking its just fillers, but more of developing these characters outside of the boxing gym.
There are so many pranks and just funny real life gross situations. Then when the epic fighting matches come, its not just them throwing punch after punch till they win, you are able to watch the physical fight they are doing in the ring, and then hear the mental the fight that that characters are going through during the match. You start to realize boxing is more like chess, a wrong move and you may have lost the whole match.
I said at the begining if you like shounen you will feel at home here with the training before matches and the growth in character development and loser that becomes the hero, but ill also say if you just like comedies and a little bit of a love story you will not be disappointed in this show.

To be up front this movie isn't anything really special. What it is, is a good watch in my opinion.
If you know some about street fighter and have seen other movies or series I feel you will like this movie. If you have never seen either of them but like a good action movie, I still feel like you may like this movie.
Pretty much its all about the main character battling the choice of the light side, or the dark side. That is it in a nut shell.
The main character comes back to his Doujou after many years to fight the man that killed his
...
master. His master and the evil dark man used to be members of the same doujou but one chose the light way and one chose the dark way.
The main character cant help feeling the strong intense power coming from the dark side, and knows how powerful it made the dark evil guy that beat his master.
The movie introduces characters you will recognize from other Street Fighter works, and they are there to help or at least influence the main characters choice to go light or dark, and the whole movie is leading up to the battle of revenge.

Ill just start with the honest truth. This is probably the worst anime i have seen from start to finish. I am usually a person that wont give a show really low scores like I have this one, but I just couldnt hold back.
Ill start by telling you what I liked then disliked.
What i liked was the idea that the people with the special powers, aren't aliens or people that have had crazy scientific studies done on them and got special powers, they are witches form the ancient times. Thats right those witches they talk about drowning and hanging in Salem. That is what had
...
me first go O.o this may be a great show.
Sadly that is where it stops being good, and starts going down the drain. Lets start with the main character. You would think you get to see a lot of uses of her ability and get an interesting look at her mindset since she is one of these witches. You are wrong just as was. She is in an agency that hunts the bad witches that kill people and yet her power just consists of her catching things on fire. Believe me she does not do this in cool ways nor does her power get better as the show progresses. Her lack of power is not her only flaw, she is a horrible character!!! She is so very boring and is just depressed 99% of the time. And she hardly talks to anyone, nor do you hear much thoughts going on through her head. In this show there is so very little dialogue its annoying.
Then there are the fights with the evil witches. They are horrible!!! They are just like the main character, their powers are not interesting int he least bit. One person uses the wind to cut people, and another uses the ground to make you trip and fall. And then these fights last like 4min max, and since the show starts off as a weekly episode witch hunter for the first half, this makes the show so lame and so boring.
Then the second half of the show comes and gives you this completely awful story! Its awful because you start to think, who cares about any of this and this show really needed to be turned in a different way. Then trust me, the end makes you go, why did i watch this whole series and why was it so bad.
I only watched this show because people on MAL and other sights all have it as such a great show, and it was a total freaking bust. Do yourself a favor and just don't watch this show.

Since this is a movie I cant give out too much information or it will ruin it for yall. But what i can tell you is this is one of the best anime movies I have watched!
One big reason for it being so great for me is the movies flow. If your like me you probably have watched some anime movies that just felt rushed from start to finish. Though the movie was good and you liked it, the characters seem to grow bonds, way too quickly and the movie seemed to cover a long period of time, and yet you hardly got to see
...
anything. Thank jeebus this movie is not like that. The movie felt longer then it actually was, but in the best way possible. I had a sense that the movie felt complete, not leaving me with nagging questions and asking why random people had the roles they did.
So now to explain the basic story. The main girl gets a nasty curse put on her from a nasty jealous witch. Shes unable to tell those around her about the curse and realizes she has to go get a cure for it all on her own. Along the way she manages to find a place to stay in this huge moving castle, and the man who owns it is a great sorcerer of the area. The curse put on her turns out to be the event that changes her life as she knows it and enters a world of magic she knew nothing about.
This movie is a fun, funny, and romantic story. The main character is a fun girl who you pull for from the start to the finish, in hopes it all works out for them.

Okay so ill summarize what this show is in two words, "PSYCHOLOGICAL BATTLES!".
The main character is a pitcher, but not in the way other baseball pitchers are. His fastest pitch is only about the speed a high school pitcher throws, and he doesn't throw super crazy unrealistic pitches either that like movie with his mind or anything.
What he basically does is play mind games against each and every one of his opponents. He throws the pitch you plan to not swing at, but then when you plan to swing at it, he throws the pitch you wont. Its almost that simple, but then again its
...
way more complex.
The story is, this pitcher using his abilities to play in the majors in japan, but not being paid an annual salary like everyone else, instead he turns the whole game into a gambling match. He gains money for each out he gets, and loses money for each run he gives up. The big catch is, the amount he loses for a run much much higher then what he gets from an out.
The show is especially good, because you don't hear the plans from the main characters mind, but you hear the thoughts of the victims. So the whole time you feel as if you are a part of the struggle to get a hit off this pitcher that is playing mind games with everyone. Ill tell you right now, you may think you and your team are winning the battle, but in reality you are sinking in a deep mental trap and are losing the war.
If you like shows like Death Note, Code Geass, Kaiji and others that have a psychological aspect that feels a lot like intense action, you will like this show and be eager for another season of it.

Okay so im gonna make this pretty short and sweet. I'm a big shounen fan to start with, and with that said this is pretty much my favorite show.
The show is about a kid with above normal human abilities realizing that his father that he never met is what they call a Hunter. Hunters vary a lot but you can pretty much call them licensed specialists. Like a bounty hunter, or a chef hunter, or a treasure hunter, it all just varies but the hunter license makes it so people recognize you are highly skilled and also grants you special privileges.
Gon the main character decides
...
he needs to become a hunter so that he can find his dad. Along the way he makes friends with some great characters. This is the core of the show, the relationship between them. For everyone has a reason for wanting to become a hunter, and this group of friends decides they will help each other reach that goal no matter what.
Now if you have seen Dragon Ball, I can tell you that's how the show starts off. The people at first are just strong and fast and have miner special attacks, but then later on they all gain special abilities, which is what being a hunter really means.
This show is about friendship, and the inner desire to achieve your goals no matter what. All the characters fight with inner demons or other people saying they cant reach their goal, but with their friends help they are able to push through the negatives.
I can also tell you there are like NO FILLERS!!!! This show is just straight up story arcs and that's great. You don't get feeling your watching something just to stall till they have new material.
