Top 20 List

[Elleon]

Post Your Top 20 List of Anime Series


Friendly Guidelines:

Post anime series only. No movies, manga, or request! Another thread can be made for them later.

Provide a Streaming Link so that others have an opportunity to watch the series and check it out quickly. Avoid Megavideo and clients similar to them since these require subscription plans and limit the amount of content you can view, and no one wants to waste their time with that.

Include a 2 sentence description/review if you want. Please keep it minimal though, mainly due to space. The posts are large enough by themselves without having full blown essays being written for each title.

Let's keep this thread clutter free so we don't have to scroll through 20 pages of crap in order to compare lists.

Thank you

************

If you couldn't tell from simply looking at my list below, each series posted has a completely different Streaming Site linked to it. This was done mainly for shits and giggles and for those who want to have a backup here and there, or decide they want to switch up locations. It is quite possible to find more than one series in a single link.

You do not have to do this, but please use the links to avoid Megavideo and "Premium" account sites.

I'll edit this with my list after, but shouldn't we include a short (1-2 line) description here, so the people don't have to click each link to find out what the series is about? Just a bunch of lists doesn't help very much in finding out what you want to watch.

I only put each series' main (what I though its main) categories were, Shounen pretty much means adventure/getting stronger/comedy/fantasy (though thats not its technical meaning) and they also tend to be 50+ episodes in length. Dark just means the over theme of the anime seems to be grim. The other types you should already know of.

I also won't be posting a link to watch each show....just type "watch [name of show] online" into google and you'll be fine.



Bullet Wound's Top 20 List

1) One Piece
Type: Shounen
Information: http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=69

5) Shiki
Type: Horror/Mystery/Violence
