*le derp jumps into the topic, making a huge edit*

Hello, I'm kinda new to anime, I only watched about 100 of them, and well almost all of them are pretty popular, so I kind of had a hard time finding new good ones, then I found out about MAL community, and I joined few days ago, I got tons of animes on PTW from my last post and of others topics aswell of "Top Animes: Most Popular" thingy, but I'm still looking for more. I hope I gonna get good amount of animes to watch and enjoy them, have a lovely day and thanks for all the replies :)

1. First of all, I'm looking for your opinion of YOUR top 5 animes, please try to give me ones I didn't watch and someone didn't recommend already.

2. I'm looking for anime like Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Code Geass, Tokyo Ghoul and epic animes as such, but with romance. but I'm still looking for ones like them without aswell [Ik Code Geass had romance, but he didn't even pick a girl, and it's really low IMO]

3. [NOT YAOI] Looking for animes with Bromance [Two dudes being together all the time, best friends and possibly if it can be action, they fight together], basically something like Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Al and Ed are together all the time (I know they are brothers, it doesn't matter are they brothers or friends to me, just so they go and do crap together)

4. Looking for Supernatural/Fantasy/Demonic/Knights/Swordfighting/Magic/Ghosts type of animes, can be With and Without romance, but I prefer them with romance, and Main Character doesn't have to be OP, just so it doesn't have abnormally,stupid,weak,phatetic one it's fine.

Notes:
- Art / Graphics mustn't be bad / old ones.
- Try not to recommend same anime as someone else, I'll check every one of them, +1 won't do me any help nor will it make any difference for me.

Thanks for the future replies :) I really do appreciate them.

Steins;Gate, definitely. Why is it good? Despite its slightly slow start, it has loads of mystery, plot twists, comedy, sci-fi, emotion and a romance sub-plot. If you like those, you'll love Steins;Gate.

I highly reccomend Kill La Kill from your list. Evangelion is good if you are in the mood for something more thought provoking.

Some of my favorite anime aren't on your list

Off your PTW in order of preference:
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood(top 3 anime ever IMO, 10/10)
Steins;Gate(Top 5 anime ever IMO, 10/10)
Samurai Champloo(Top 10, 10/10)
Psycho Pass(9/10)
Baccano!(8/10)

Not on your list in order of preference:
Trigun(top 5, 10/10)
Cowboy Bebop(top 10, 10/10)
Bakemonogatari(9/10)
Death Parade(9/10)

FMAB isn't bromance I guess because the two MCs are brothers so I guess that doesn't count but they're extremely close. Bromance later on in Trigun

Your PTW:

Steins;Gate -- Rather boring until episode 5. Ep. 6 boring again. Anime only really begins ep. 7, really.
Shakugan no Shana II -- 'Cause you did 1st season. Some stretches with little action as they tend to work on the character relations a bit. Still some good battles.

Bromancy with action:

Peace Maker --Getting older, a bit goofy (but has a few serious bits). Runt of a mc kind of annoying but offset by the other characters.

Some new stuff for you that I really liked:

+1 Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu (LotGH) -- Also bromancy in a military way.
Space battleship Yamato 2199 -- Somewhat bromancy with 2 mc's.
Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen (Samurai X: Trust & Betrayal) -- A masterpiece 'nuff said.[/url]
Nodame Cantabile -- Geez the music. Also funny with romance.
Maria-sama ga Miteru -- Best shoujo-ai yet yuri is mostly absent. More about deep friendships.
Girls und Panzer -- Best cute girls doing stuff anime and even has some tank action.

Bakemonogatari: witty dialog, stylish art, fan service.

Ergo Proxy: psychological sci-fi that's not afraid of taking creative risks.

Kill la Kill: over-the-top fun.

I hope this will help you out, somehow ^^

My numer one favorite Anime of all time is Kuroshitsuji, also known as Black Butler. Seriously, I love everything about this Anime! If the animation feels too old, try only watching book of circus, it does a good job introducing newbies to the series ^^

If you like Anime with a kinda mysterious atmosphere to them, K also known as K-Project might be an Anime for you. It happens to be my second favorite ;) I watched it in one day //^.^

Dance in the Vampire Bund may also fit your descriptions.

And I highly recommend Gosick! This one may have the most romance of those that I wrote down up to now ;)

You might also enjoy Trinity Blood.Even though I am not too sure if there is any romance there.

I do not tend to watch Anime with a lot of romance, sorry >.<
I hope, I have been of some help nevertheless (:

I second everything positive said about Cowboy Bebop. It has camaraderie amongst the crew, plenty of action, great visuals and excellent music. Although it doesn't have a romance story of significant emphasis, it does have traces of unrequited love and past love.

As far as a possible mecha (that has romance), I might try Gundam 00 or Gundam Seed. Both are pretty good. Seed has more romance, but is also much longer. Both, however, have plenty of action and the animation is good for both.

I would also highly recommend Ghost in the Shell: SAC. It may not be the best rec based on your stipulations, but I think it fits in nicely with your top anime.

Hey, Fostah. It seems you haven't seen any of my top 5 anime!

Steins;Gate
Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day
Bakemonogatari (pretty much the Monogatari series in general)
Nagi no Asukara
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann

You posted earlier that you wanted a good mecha anime, so Gurren Lagann will hopefully satisfy you there. You also said you wanted supernatural romance anime, right? Well, then I would recommend: Anohana, Nagi no Asukara, Clannad, and Clannad: After Story. They all lean more towards supernatural drama, but romance is still very present.

I saw that you dropped Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, and Fairy Tail, so I really don't think you'll like D.Gray-man very much. It looks like long running battle shounen series just isn't your thing, but D.Gray-man is great, in my opinion. It has a slow start, but it gets better as it goes on.

Appears most people are recommending relatively newer stuff. So Ill recommend some of my older favorites. Also FMA Brotherhood like everyone else echoed is a fantastic series. Most of my favorite shows came out in the mid-2000s so Ill recommend five of my favorites.

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (2006) - Slice of life sci-fi with comedy and some romance elements
Full Metal Panic! and its Sequel (2002; 2005) - Military drama, comedy, romance, school
Black Lagoon (2006) - Action primarily, but also some philosophical/psychological moments
Neon Genesis Evangelion (original series 1995) and the movie reboots - Mecha psychological, with some romance
And Ill throw Gundam Seed in there (2002) - Mecha, military, sci-fi with some romance elements. This was a bit different than the other gundams, but I thought the characters were pretty well-done - animation is not that good though as a headsup.

Thanks for the suggestions, I really do appreciate them. I'll probably drop D Gray Man aswell, I'm just not into these long running shows, The longest anime I watched is FMA:B[64 episodes], not counting the animes I watched long time ago /Yugioh,Pokemon,Naruto/ when I didn't even know for these other animes lel.

I'm getting into Steins:Gate after I finish FMA:B, only 20 more episodes, most of the people say it's amazing and other half says it's boring as hell first 10 episodes and gets really good then, but will give it a try, even doe I'm a fan of a more fast-paced animes.
