I now that there are a lot people out there who are Anime addicts; thus, I ask, help me find good, free, online, english speeking Anime series. I've been searching for months and found loads of downlods, For Opening and Closing credits, scene snippets, and a bunch of reviews, NOT what I'm looking for. All I want is some free online anime that I can enjoy during school, while I'm supposed to be doing my work.

Please help me find good, free, downloadable, school approptate Anime. I'm looking for drawn or 3d.

By the way, Full Metal Alchamist, on Adult Swim (Cartoon Network) rules!!

For a start, no, cartoon network does not rule. What it does, i cannot say on a public forum. You americans may get cool stuff, but us brits get absolute s**t on Toonami, such as cut dragonball/z/gt, now i like uncut DBZ, but the other 2 suck. DB is watchable, but not when its cut.

And english anime sucks, i mean come on, what where 4kids thinking when they decided to make the guns fire water?, in one piece.

The only place to get anime is over crappy virus spreading programs like kazaa, and bit torrent, so i wouldnt bother, i would get them from DVD in japan.

Lastly, i dont quite think this has anything to do woth this site, but then, neither does the "what you want for christmas" thread

Both Naruto and Bleach are really good and safe anime, but I'm afraid they are only fansubbed, so you'll have to be reading to follow them. Well worth it though, they are two of the best anime series' I've ever come across. Oh and don't rely on their actual projects pages to have the latest episodes listed - they put them on the news page and forget to put them elsewhere it seems.

Diablobasher - this is the general banter forum, its for off topic s**t like this

I've found that in the last five years dubbing has been improved by leaps and bounds in general. American DVDs are fine to buy as well. They have both American and Japanese tracks with subtitles.

Diablobasher, Toonami sucks balls here as well. Adult Swim shows SOME good anime, such as Fullmetal Alchemist, which is a incredibly good show, the dubbing is good, but the voice actors are iffy.

But ... if you're talking about rips ...

edited: shouldnt really link to suprnova, Crono...

has an pretty comprehensive list of what is listed.

And http://62.212.84.26/browse.php?cat=ANIME which is easier to search for the series you're looking for. [addsig]

The voices for the English dubs of FMA suck so much. The japanese voices just seem to fit the characters more. And no, I'm not really that big of an anime nerd. I swear. [addsig]

Anime is animated (hence the name) and is a term generally applied to Japanese cartoons. The comic book form is known as Manga. I wouldn't say ctrlaltdel is either of those, but it is still damn funny

I've come to learn that only the ultimate nerds will say things like this to cover up their nerdeness.

I don't watch anime because I find it a lot to be dumb but there are several different ones I do enjoy. The way the japanese draw cartoons is different from the rest of use. I like animes because they really express a lot of beauty and creativity in the art department. I can't say much for some of their story lines though.

Yeah, ok. I think you learned your lesson wrong. Anyways, if you like anime for the art well then that's mind boggling, as it is all pretty much the same with very little variety. From the little contact I've had with them it always seemed like the stories were more creative and unique, and much more of a draw than the stupid artwork.

The art is much the same (still very nice if you ask me though), but the character and location designs seen in anime are normally far more varied and extraordinary than you would find in any other form of entertainment.

I dont know the site, but kaizoku fansubs do fansubbed One Piece, which is damn good.

Full metal alchemist is cool, but the american one sucks.

We dont have adultswin here

Yeah I wish we got AdultSwim too Most of the stuff on there is brilliant Especially like those random comedy ones like Space Ghost, Aqua Teen Hunger Force and SeaLab, they make me laugh so much So lazily animated and such stupid lines...

Anyone seen Akira? It's a fantastic movie, I suggest you watch it if you haven't Anime at it's finest.

I am an almost an ultra-nerd. The only thing holding me back is the fact that I don't play Chess, don't enjoy learning, do not read or play 'card battle games' and do all the other things that stereotypical nerds engage in.

I like being a nerd, and I embrace it. Long live the nerds *pushes up thick-black glasses*.

HAHA. I'm not big into Anime either. Anyway, Make sure you don't order USA DVD's if your gonna be watching them in Britain. DVD's are region coded so that anything in the US (code 1) will not work in western europe (code 2 i believe) there are international DVD players that read ALL codes but they're very expensive.

Check out Gordon Freeman in Southpark! http://crapbucket.brad.com/halfpark.jpg

Multi-regions aren't that expensive, last time I was they were being sold in Argos for 25 quid Maybe it's just a one-off thing though.

And long live nerds indeed!

Hey neural, ive seen AKIRA, ive got it on special edition DVD, it rocks.

Hey Vash, i dont wear glasses, but im more nerdy than you (is this a competition?)

Admitedly, i hate to learn, and chess bores me. But, i do play Card games, such as Legend of the five rings, Spycraft, and at a push magic. I even used to play yugioh (british champion )

I also engage in such activities as Dungeons & Dragons, more commonly reffered to by us nerds as D&D.

And to add to this list, i absolutly love anime, im such a big One Piece fan, i like a bit of cowboy bebop and Outlaw star too. Hikaru no Go i also very good, go is like chess, but more nerdy.

If you havent gathered by now I am a NERD

PS: Those sour little sweets called nerds, anyone remember them? They sucked.
