I decided to take advantage of Crunchyrolls get a free LootCrate when you subscribe to the 30 day trial.

So now I have 30 days of premium animes and no clue what to watch.

I had a look at the most popular, the first being Naruto which I have 0 interest in.
The second was Food Wars. So I thought, eh why not only to discover this show started out with a girl orgasming over food and then being molested by a squid. Not my cup of tea. :s

It's been a while since I've watched anime so I'm really out of the loop.
Shows I remember enjoying: Mushishi, Nana, InuYasha, Cowboy Bebop, Azumanga Daioh, pretty much everything Ghibli. There's more but it really has been a while.
So anyone got any recommendations? It doesn't have to be anime, crunchyroll seems to have a bunch of other stuff.

If others were interested in the free lootcrate deal, here's the reddit link I found it on:
https://www.reddit.com/r/freebies/comments/3joknp/get_your_first_box_of_lootcrate_free_when_you/
If this isn't allowed I'll remove it. O_O

And a train for those who are addicted to the +1

I'm browsing through what they have. The first thing I found that I have watched is Tonari no Seki-kun. It has short episodes and it's pretty casual. Kind of funny. :P

better to watch it now then to wait, cuz in 10 years there will be 1400 episodes the author already stated there will be 10 more years before the manga ends its already on its like 16 years of actively being made.

best manga/anime ever created its up there with DBZ for sure

One Piece is amazing, and the only long anime that isn't completely ruined by insane amounts of filler, looking at you Naruto, with two real life years of filler before the ending. lol

If you don't mind fan service, Monster Musume is fucking hysterical, despite the T&A

Death Note live action miniseries is in the drama section, not sure if what you have covers the drama section, but it's a great twist on the original, just small changes to the story here and there for some great surprises

Fairy Tail is quite good, it's getting to the really good parts of the manga soon in the newest episodes.

World Trigger is a great new anime, not that many episodes yet.

Ushio and Tora is another new one, really silly action show.

I don't watch many anime, I'm more for manga..

  • Abenobashi - the only one in this list I've seen (like 15 episodes);
  • Beck - story of a music band;
  • Death Note - story's good, even in the anime (from what I've heard/read);
  • Eyeshield 21 - if you like sport stories, you could also try Slam Dunk;
  • FullMetal Alchemist;
  • Hunter X Hunter - read the story lot of times (especially Greed Island's arc); don't know how the anime is.

Seen Death Note & FMA, both very good.
I believe the site does have manga so I can read... kinda. 8)
Remember wanting to watch Beck years ago but not being able to find a source for it. Now could be a good time.

make sure you watch the real FMA, not the first one made where alfonse turns out to be a bomb. that version is bullcrap and never happens. but they accidently made the anime before the manga, and it messed up the anime.

you have to watch FMA brotherhood to see the real story that stays true to the manga. if you watched the first anime, just forget everything you watched cuz none of it happened in the manga after like 10 episodes you will see a giant difference

in the first one they made scar an enemy and bad guy. when he is one of the best allies in the series in the real story

I think that's a bit unfair to say FMA is complete bullcrap. Sure Brotherhood might be better but at the time people loved it and is still a very good show.

the first made one was an accident, they started the anime too soon when the manga came out. so after a few episodes they ran out of manga to make the anime story, you cant make an anime without the manga guideline and they started making thigns up and not knowing where they were going,

its not about brother hood being better, but being accurate and true to the story. the first FMA isnt canon, brotherhood is canon. its a big deal lol

If you actually read the manga and want your anime to follow it precisely, sure. For those of us that never read manga but enjoy a good anime show here and there, FMA was a very good series, with the same basic characters but a rather different storyline than Brotherhood. Essentially the same as every comic book reboot ever, which many people enjoy.

its like calling FMA a plain donut. someone can love plain donuts to death cuz they have no clue that there are cream filled donuts (brotherhood)

i know ignorance is bliss, but sometimes the truth is better

Then there are those of us who just love both plain donuts and cream filled donuts because they are donuts. In other words, both versions of FMA are great stories and I, personally, don't give a crap which one is considered "correct".

I also find it funny that you're labeling one as "truth" even though it's all fictional to begin with.

Of course, but which is canon in this case, if the first anime was made before the manga? One could argue that the first anime is how things were supposed to be and they screwed the manga up when they diverged from the canon of the first anime.

At any rate, like I said, they're still both good stories and I'd wager 90% of the rest of the world doesn't care that one isn't "correct".

I have to agree, I remember how much everyone adored the series before the rest of the manga even came out.
It doesn't matter which is right or wrong they are both critically acclaimed shows. If Brotherhood had never been released then I doubt he would be saying much beyond "but the manga is different" which is literally the most criticism I ever saw of the show 04/05 from "average joe anime fan".

If anything Brotherhood had an advantage to go ahead and build on top of the existing framework and fanbase. You build up my expectations things can end badly! :s

Ok, I looked more, and it seems there are different animes for different regions, so maybe I might not have access to everything you have there.
So, I couldn't find anything I would definitely recommend, but here are 2 I watched a couple episodes, and I liked what I watched:

Also, there's this one I've heard good things about, but no idea:

And here, if you're into japanese RPGs... Maybe... :P

Food wars is really quite good if you ignore the first few episodes, the ecchiness reduces as time goes on!

Its really entertaining, give it another go.
