One of the best anime I have seen. Classic. The story is very engaging and the illustrations are quite excellent. Do you have any classic anime recommendation?

DBZ tho I'm not a huge fan like I used to be. Also TRIGUN was good.

Neon Genesis Evangelion. I love the moments where you only hear the cicadas or the rain. IMO its a very emotionally driven show even though on the outside it would appear to be an action packed mecha series (it is those things for sure) but so much more as well.

In the movies category, Akira is a sci fi classic anime and it is good. I liked it and would recommend it to anyone

Getter Robo. It's like Gurren Lagann but better.

NGE, as much of a min f**k that it is, I love it.

For Nostalgia reasons I love Space Battleship Yamato, but known here in the States as Star Blazers, I cut my teeth on that series growing up, and probably got me started watching anime.

DBZ was my favorite anime but it won't be my classic favorit.

King of the North Star or DBZ. Def one of those.
