Ok so I started a "Is Trigun the Best Anime of All-Time" thread a long time ago. You and a couple others made it a pretty good discussion.

I have now watched Trigun and Samurai Champloo. LOVED both of them. Tried to watch FLCL because it was highly recommended by the guy that referee the other two to me. I literally wanted to kill myself during the first episode. It physically hurt me to watch an episode. All that being said, what do y'all think I should watch next? Also, let me say that I'm not in to spiritism and demonistic stuff. I read about Death Note and it sounded tight but I just cant do that stuff it's just not my thing. Ok so now what should I watch next? Let me say this too, I'm pretty much only going to be able to watch it if it's on Netflix. Unless I borrow a DVD from somebody that has it. That being said, what should I watch next? I'm not a big anime guy or adult cartoon guy in general so it needs to be good or I'm just going to be mad at you for recommending it to me. Now, what do y'all think I should watch next? I don't have all that much free time even though I'm on break so I don't dig stuff that is over maybe three season, that's just too much of an investment you know? What are y'all thinking in regards to what I should watch next? Just you know, recccommending something, I'm pretty easy to work with.

Berserk, Hellsing, Wolf's Rain(if you're feeling emo), Cowboy Bebop is easy to pick up and put down.

I posted the link to Berserk on youtube above.

If you like Trigun, I'd recommend you watch Great Teacher Onizuka. It's a little long (43 episodes), but it's the funniest media I've ever had the pleasure of watching. It's a good enough show that I've shown to friend who don't really like anime at all and they've all come away laughing and enjoying it. LINK

Onizuka is easily one of the coolest characters of all time. Lots of personality similarities with him and Vash.

FLCL is one of a kind. I like it, but I definitely know it isn't for everyone.

As for recommendations, I'd recommend Cowboy Bebop if you liked Trigun and Samurai Champloo. It's not on Netflix though.

As for Netflix only, try these:

Darker than Black (1st season only)
Canaan
Noir
Soul Eater

If you like zombies, there is Highschool of the Dead. Be prepared for real heavy fan service though. Some people can't get passed that. I found it hilarious. It's also only 12 episodes so you can get through it quick.

Try those and then let me know. There are a bunch of really good ones not on Netflix. If you see something on Netflix you think you might be interested in, let me know and I'll tell you what I thought.
