Need some new anime...

[Sir Nikon]

I've gone out and bought a few boxsets. Unfortunately, they're all things I've seen before and many, many times ('cept for GitS at least):

Ghost in the Shell: SAC
Neon Genesis Evangelion (Platinum) + Movies
Serial Experiments Lain

I can't seem to think of any other anime series that I should get. Paranoia Agent is coming to mind because it's one of the few anamorphic anime TV titles available. But regardless of that, does anyone have any good recommendations? As soon as I have more funds I'll be buying the Tenchi Muyo! OVA boxset but just like the others, I've seen it tons of times.

SOOO... Anyone got any ideas? Movies, TV series boxsets, whatever else. It doesn't really matter. I just need something fresh but still enjoyable.

Samurai X OVA.

Brings a tear to my eye every time.

[Sir Nikon]

Oops... I forgot to mention it in my first post.

Yeah, I was gonna pick that one up too. But like a lot of the others, I've already seen it tons of times. I remember when I bought the original set and you could reverse the packaging to change it from "Samurai X" to "Rurouni Kenshin OVA."

Umm...FLCL then. Only like...six episodes or something. One of my favorites.

Has a great soundtrack, too. The Pillows=A Japanese band I'll actually listen to casually.

Tenjo Tenge's pretty good.

I hear that Desert Punk and Samurai Gun are supposed to be pretty good. Also, Samurai Champloo is good, but only because it's done by Wantanabe.

I was going to say Desert Punk, it pwnz.

Full Metal Panic :D

[Sir Nikon]

Full Metal Panic...

You know, my boy always tells me that I should watch it. I always kinda ignored his recommendation... But since the lovely Meeeeeeeeelissa recommended it, I suppose I could check it out. :)

The Lodoss Wars?

Don't hit me?

[Sir Nikon]

Record of Lodoss War.

I was actually going to pick this up and the only reason why I didn't is because I wasn't able to find a copy of it in the stores. I'll tack it onto my list though. I've wanted to see it ever since it was first released on DVD a few years back.

Thread digging!

They have "Record of Lodoss War Complete Collector's Edition" or something like that at www.estarland.com for $50. Use the coupon "DVD70%OFF" (I think that's right) to get another set (Hellsing Complete Collection - $54.95) for 70% off.

If I had enough, I would've bought Last Exile and Serial Experiments Lain Abe Collection for ~$60. Instead, I bought Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust Collector's Edition and Blood: The Last Vampire for $18.
