i'm looking for some anime to get into. i'm a pretty big into old school dungeons and dragons type games.

I'm guessing, you're into action Magicka?
Try, Fate Stay Night and Chrome Shelled Regios.

Record of Lodoss War and Slayers are both classics that are two of my personal favorites. You are unlikely to be disappointed if you start there.

Edit: I realize the OP hasn't logged on since a minute after making that post, but whatever.

You should do it with a song and anime you really like. The key in making amvs is not so much even the anime and song it is how they are used together that makes the difference.

the action/fantasy animes that are the best and most popular are death note, bleach, soul eater (i just started watching it and so far im on episode 35 and its really good) i prefer shorter animes that arent like 200 episodes but all of these are shortish

Tenkuu Senki Shurato. I really, really, REALLY recommend this one here.

Fate/Stay Night is pretty dungeon-and-dragon-y? haha, I don't know.
But I would recommend Full Metal Alchemist. It was the anime that got me into it and it still remains my favorite

I agree with him, start out with Full Metal Alchemist. It really and truly is a great anime! This was the one that also got me into anime!

Are there any cruel scenes? What is the theme of that anime?

Thanks.

If you are looking for something short and slick i will surely recommend Death Note..... AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

If you want something D&D-ish, have you tried Slayers? It's a hilarious spoof of the fantasy genre. Also have you seen Record of Lodoss War? That is a pretty serious take on the fantasy genre.

Fullmetal Alchemist is about a pair of brothers that become state alchemists. It's really funny and has good action scenes. It's set in a world that is similar to the 1920's or 1930's. They have cars trains and guns but Alchemy is more powerful that all that. Makes for a great show

As everyone said above me...Why don't you try Full Metal Alchemist, its very addictive and funny also....A must watch anime

You may want to try a few classics like Rurouni Kenshin, G Gundam, and Tenchi Muyo. A few good ones now-a-days though are Beet The Vandel Buster, which is on a hiatus though, and Dragon Drive. If you ever feel like needing anymore, you're free to ask.
