Jack Red thoughts on Which Animes are Better than FLCL Part 2

Hi everyone this is Jack Red, I got a couple more animes that I think are better than the overrated six episode show. Now since some of these animes are really close to me I'm going out all for this one. I am glad that I can tell those who read this how much I love anime. I also love my soul mate Rebecca who means the world to me that I am going to marry some day.

The following animes are going to be really well design by me to show my passion for some of these shows...

1. Ergo Proxy
This is one of the best animes with Funimation's name on I ever seen. The story will take some time to learn with a twist at the end. I do like a couple of the characters though Ergo Proxy was my favorite. It has some of the best visuals with the overall look of the show being dark. I am a big fan of graphic violence since my child hood so that's one reason I enjoyed watching it. It truly deserves to be one of the company's finest out right now that will have a strong following.

2. Hamtaro
I will be honest I wasn't a big fan of this at first until I decided to watch an episode. It reminds me of Rugrats since the main characters often used their imaginations. It's about an hamster named Hamtaro with his friends. It has comedy style to get anyone's attention though it's aimed to an younger audience. They never release all the episodes in the United States for unknown reasons. I wish I could have some of the episodes to show my children one day.

3. One Piece
I don't get why some people prefer watching FLCL aka Fooly Cooly over this. I mean it has more than enough to be loved for years to come. It might be one of the longest animes I'm into it. I love a lot of the characters like Luffy, Sanji, Ace. Kaku and Zoro. The story will remind you of Dragon Ball since that was his biggest inspiration. It's one of the most well thought out stories I ever got into. I never seen such originality that this guy clearly went totally out of the box. I really love this show for numerous reasons that I am glad Funimation picked this up. Some of you already know 4kids originally had the dub but fucked it up really bad. Funimation you did an amazing job dubbing it the way it was suppose to be. They still making movies like most movies to their franchises not being canonical. Don't let the look of this fool you it's going to be one hell of an journey that you're welcome to join.

4. Cowboy Bebop
Who doesn't know the name Cowboy Bebop it's still one of the most famous animes ever. One website named it the greatest anime ever now you know I'm not fucking around. This has some of the best episodes I ever seen on any show for that matter. I like a lot of the characters like Jet, Edward, Vicious and Spike. Most animes are either loosely or directly based on the mangas yet this is one of the few that's totally original. Jazz songs from this show has been widely known for years. Usually most of them would use J Rock or J Pop songs. The director behind this master piece wanted to be as original as possible now that takes balls to do. It has some of the best action as well as comedy scenes still today in anime. There does exist an movie with this show that's also worth watching but a few animes. One quick interesting fact this came in second on Adult Swim's question what's better than FLCL wow.

5. Dragon Ball Z
Another personal favorite of mine that actually got me into anime today. Some would say the original is the best but most agree that they nailed it with this one. Yes they just remade it called Dragon Ball Z Kai though that fucking sucks. I already made it clear how much I hate Dragon Ball GT. Here's an interesting fact like Rurouni Kenshin they aired it on an channel where it didn't do good. Toonami pick up both shows where they got many fans loved them. This has some of the most awesome characters like Goku, Future Trunks and Cell. To be honest this was the first action anime I enjoy watching that I remember very well. Not too long ago I got an scroll of Goku in most of his forms hanging on my wall. They surprisingly made thirteen movies with two tv specials. Adult Swim put that anime question up with Dragon Ball Z being the third best anime better than FLCL. Like One Piece it's a long anime that has plenty moments to keep you watching it.

6. Death Note
Before I watched this Dragon Ball Z was my favorite anime now that's saying a lot. A lot of you guys knew I had to talk about Death Note it's so good. I love the direction of the story though I really don't like L's death. I like a lot of the characters such as Light, Ryuk, Mello and L. This was the single best anime to come from Viz Media that could rival some of the big names from Funimation. It reminds me of another anime from Viz Media Bleach since they both involved Shinigamis. It was really fun to watch Light going all out with the Death Notes. It has some well place humor with some really good intense moments that may surprise you. I do like they change the ending to one more fitting for the story since the original one was terrible. I'm also surprised that many girls including my girl friend dress up as some of the characters. Just in case you guys were wondering she likes dressing up as Mello.

Thank you for your time and I hope you enjoy what I had to say about all these shows.

Jack Red presents Thoughts on Which Animes are better than FLCL Part 1

Hi everyone I'm Jack Red, sorry I haven't been blogging for a while I got really addicted to Garry's Mod with a need to watch anime hardcore. I am an on and off Adult Swim viewer for many years now. They recently asked the viewers which animes do they think is better than FLCL. For those out there FLCL is short for Fooly Cooly that's becoming a well known anime. I decide to talk about some animes that they did show real quick Saturday night that's better than FLCL.

This following list doesn't show exactly where I would put them for best animes but they sure are better than FLCL so let's go...

1. Gurren Lagann
I'm currently getting to this series but I did check the forums to found out four users said this show. I got to say being new to this that I can see why it's so damn good. It has one of the best mech stories I ever heard in an long time. This will remind you of Neon Genesis Evangelion as well as the Gundam series. What makes this different is how it starts out pretty strong. It truly stands pretty well on it's own against those two big names.

2. Fullmetal Alchemist
This was the original anime that loosely based on the manga like Hellsing. It has a good story with some rememberable characters. It's rare for me to say this but I love all the opening themes. They did a great job not being familiar with the story to make the show good. This is one of the best fifty some episodes anime I got into in recent years. It sucks they never revealed what happened to Dante the real villain of the story.

3. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Funimation is remaking some of their classics with this being one of their best. It has a similar purpose like Hellsing to show the viewers what you were suppose to see. I am a bigger fan of this version since it's more what I wanted than the original. You get more characters such as Pride who reminds me of Alucard from Hellsing. Unlike Dragon Ball Z Kai it's longer than the original anime.

4. Bleach
Bleach is one of my favorite animes to date it reminds me of my child hood watching Dragon Ball Z. It has some of the awesome characters like Ichigo and Kenpachi. For the most part it's pretty good despite how bad season 4 was. The fighting is some of the best I seen in years. I love where the story is going though this can be confusing for a lot of people out there. It might be long but that doesn't mine you aren't going to enjoy it don't be a pussy.

5. Trigun
One of the absolute best animes in it's episode length truly deserves some respect. Vash does remind me of Kenshin from Rurouni Kenshin with an Magnum. It has some good character development especially for the brothers this story follows. It does the comedy better than Bleach in my opinion. Usually animes twenty some episodes have epic ending battles with no expection to this. I still remember that fight like no tomorrow holy shit Vash won at the last minute. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants a really good anime to watch.

6. Samurai Champloo
This reminds me of Cowboy Bebop for numerous similarities that some call this it's sequel. It has a good story with some rememberable characters. They did try making an manga series based on this but stopped. That also happened to Cowboy Bebop which got a couple more characters. It has some of the most entertaining sword fights you will ever see in anime. It sucks I didn't get to watch it on Adult Swim but that's okay. It's a good anime with one of the most original director of all time.

7. Yu Yu Hakusho
It was a good story despite how popular Dragon Ball was. I remember watching a lot of episodes on Toonami. Just a few months ago I finally finished watching the series on YouTube. I really like a lot of these characters like Yusuke, Kurama and Hiei. I like they have most of their fights easier to watch than Dragon Ball Z. The ending sure was a pretty happy one maybe the happiest ever.

Oh I got a long way to go in fact I just decided last minute to make this a series of it's own to show how big of an anime fan I am.
