GreenCine's Anime Guide has a quick general overview on the first page then gives an overview of sub-genres and people on the next 3. At the bottom of that last page is a list of their recommendations for an intro to the field:
Angel's Egg
Blood: the Last Vampire
Boogiepop Phantom
The Castle of Cagliostro
Cowboy Bebop
FLCL
Great Teacher Onizuka (GTO)
His and Her Circumstances
Key the Metal Idol
Martian Successor Nadesico
Perfect Blue
Read or Die
Voices of a Distant Star
Witch Hunter Robin
The only one on the list that I've seen is Key the Metal Idol. I haven't even heard of most of the others. I'll have to watch for them.
Cowboy Bebop is definitely worth watching.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching for it but only see the movie, never the series. I guess I could order it....
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recommendation. :)
