| For me personally it's TTGL. For the community.. I agree with most of the posts here. Anime like Death Note, and bleach will be there. Also to the people mentioning anime like NGE. NGE finished airing in 1996, I.E. almost 16 years ago today. The question the OP stated addressed which anime will not be forgotten (10 years time). Herp. Derp. |
| Well, NGE, Ghost in the Shell and Cowboy Bebop are already at that point of legend, and naturally they will continue to be remembered along with MSG and the other classics. But for the more recent shows, I'll put a bet on Death Note and maybe Full Metal Alchemist. Sure, Bleach and Naruto will be remembered to some extent, but the top spot in their genres is already occupied by Dragonball, and I really can't see these two ever usurping that throne. Their overall quality level would have to be seriously boosted for that, which seems rather hopeless at this point. Though I guess One Piece could be a contender. Others such as Clannad, Code Geass and Haruhi, I doubt will be remembered long, their overall impact is after all considerably less, so they will likely be forgotten as temporary fads. But I dunno, Haruhi might still have a chance if they make some more of it, otherwise the franchise seems to have run out of steam for the moment. |
| lol not Code Geass? That show has spawned 30 gazillion spinoffs and adaptations already. You need a tall glass of objectivity instead of haterade, Bro. |
 |
| anything Macross, anything Gundam, Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica, Ano Hana, Sister Princess (Many VN adaptations have references to the series but only the Japanese and others who have watched the series and at least 1. read the PS1 VNs or 2. Read the LN will get them). |

| Pokemon, Digimon, YuYuHakusho, Code Geass, Fate/zero, Darker than Black and maybe one more~ |
 |
| School Days, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Clannad, and many of the mainstreams. There are probably a lot more too XD. |

| Pokemon. Cuz I'm sure it'll still be around 10 years from now. |
petalshreds said: Still, I don't see any real impact with that. All the manga seem to be pretty obscure, third rate titles churned out to cash in on the success, and I can only really see one OVA in the DB here that seems to be anything other than cheap specials, summaries and similar bloatware. not only two. and there are ova's and everything. movie and two ova's coming soon, too. but code geass is still not as big as gundam series. there's live action announcement recently and code geass posters keep popping up every two months or so in japan anime magazines (forgot the names) At least compared to the more clear contenders like Haruhi, there's very little to go on in terms of pop culture relevancy *rant by 24601 goes here*. |
| Madoka is going the Eva route. Also, I expect K-On and Haruhi to survive. Not to mention the big ones,One Piece, Naruto, maybe not Bleach ;p, Toriko now. |
| My anime list |
mitamaking said: Madoka is going the Eva route. It's WAY too early to say something like this. In fact, it's been only a year and if it wasn't for the newly announced movies god knows how much attention the show would still get... The hype was HUGE when the show was airing, but I think it won't last that long. Of course I could be wrong. But I really don't see why Madoka would still be talked about in ten (or maybe even three) years. It really didn't do that much new stuff. |
| Let's see: Death note Haruhi K-On! (thanks to the moeblob crusade mainly) Cowboy Bebop Dragon Ball Pokemon Doraemon Crayon Shin-chan Most Ghiblies Neon Genesis Evangelion Clannad Berserk Bleach Naruto One piece School days (for the sake of polemics) Fullmetal alchemist Mahou shoujo Madoka magica (I know it's soon but this show really holds potential) And well, I would like to say Azumanga, but nobody mentioned it so far in the thread, that's a bad sign :(. |
| Dragon Ball Z and Pokemon. |
| <!--link--><a href="http://myanimelist.net/animelist/angelfire892&sclick=1"> Being sane is over rated :) |
| Pokemon will definitely survive with its popularity in video games part. Naruto, One Piece, and Bleach because of the amount of chapters. Dragon Ball because it is legend, it's just won't die. I doubt Gundam will be forgotten 10 years from now. Pretty sure they will continue with more series. |
| Escaflowne < - - held up for a decade already Neon Genesis Evangelion Miyazaki's masterpieces Pokemon, sadly Dragon Ball Z Gundam Wing Macross Cowboy Bebop Sailor Moon Cardcaptor Sakura Full Metal Alchemist Doraemon |

Beedlebud said: Pokemon. Cuz I'm sure it'll still be around 10 years from now. totally seconding this plus from same reason Gundam One Piece - well I don't know if creator will have new ideas for this Precure - at least in Japan AFAIK, it gives enough money to be hold alive well all those big series I think, either by becoming some kind of legend or still be running and from other series Sailor Moon - thanks to spawn of it's offsprings Azumanga Daioh - again it started some idea of series, so luckilly when all other will be seen someone will come back to classic (and that why series like Lucky Star may not be here as it's refferences may be less recognizable) Ah! My Goddess (?) - for another 10 years of romance that leads nowhere :D Aria (?) - it's example of specyfic genre so maybe this, well this I hope so PS. As it's off topic... but I wanted to ask it for some time already: 24601 is your nick by any chance conected with Jean Valjean :> off topic/off |
| Several mainstream Animes. Oh and Clannad. (+ After Story) |
 |
| I would probably say Aria if it wasn't for the fact that outside of the anime fan circles it is totally or almost totally unknown. And considering how much do the tastes and mainstream shows vary in these circles I doubt many people care for it in ten years. This is not a criticism of its quality, but it's just that, even if it is regarded as a classic, I don't see this franchise doing that well in the memories of the fans. Even now it has more of cult classic than of mass phenomenon. And yes, I forgot Sailor moon and Cardcaptor Sakura. |

Even now it has more of cult classic than of mass phenomenon. I partially agree about taste shifting but Aria is not so typical slice of life, I think. For me it's already has specyfic type of people watching it and there is some chance that people searching for slow paced scenery porn filled show may go for it. Like there are not so many of those even now. But that is what I hope for :) Also I would go for CLAMP shows as whole - they are visually distinctive, give birth to flame wars plus they are still making new ones. And it works in a way - you watched one, there is quite a chance to go see others. |

If you asked people to name a song from the late 1990s then probably the most commonly named song would be Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On, despite the fact that Candle in the Wind (1997) sold more than twice as much. Being the single biggest selling single since charts began, Candle in the Wind is hardly forgotten, but it's not anywhere near as well known or remembered as other songs which, by comparison, had vastly lower sales. Popularity at the time doesn't necessarily lead to its notoriety lasting a long time. This is true in any form of entertainment - music, art, literature, and probably anime too. You may not know King Lear from Henry V they considered classics none the less. Not all of the following anime have mass appeal but have already stood the test of time and likely will likely continue to do so. Uchuu Senkan Yamato - 1974 Mirai Shounen Conan - 1978 Mobile Suit Gundam - 1979 Rose of Versailles - 1979 Hadashi no Gen - 1983 Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind - 1984 The Wings of Honneamise - 1987 Grave of the Fireflies - 1988 Legend of the Galactic Heroes - 1988 Top wo Nerae! - 1988 Macross - 1989 Irresponsible Captain Tylor - 1993 Ghost in the Shell - 1995 Neon Genesis Evangelion - 1995 Fushigi Yuugi - 1995 Rurouni Kenshin - 1996 Escaflowne - 1996 Berserk - 1997 Perfect Blue - 1997 Cowboy Bebop - 1998 Great Teacher Onizuka - 1999 Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen - 1999 Will these make the 10+ year mark? Fullmetal Alchemist - 2002 RahXephon - 2002 Haibane Renmei - 2002 Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - 2003 Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World - 2003 Monster - 2004 Blood+ - 2005 Eureka Seven - 2005 Black Lagoon - 2006 Death Note - 2006 Casshern Sins - 2008 Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - 2009 Rainbow: Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin - 2010 Other current titles with "classic" potential?

just it will never be gundam I never said it would. Things I also never said Code Geass would be are LoGH, Ashito no Joe, Lupin, My Little Pony, Arthur, Doug, or Burt Lancaster. |

Yeah that's what I was referring to basically. Hardcore Anime fans would generally know what Animes like Clannad etc. are but overall, in my opinion, I wouldn't consider it "mainstream" compared to Animes like Pokemon, Dragonball Z, Yu-Gi-Oh, Naruto, Bleach, One Piece etc. |

Believe me, most people solely class the big three as mainstream, grouping the rest of the mainstream series in a different category simply to justify their 'mainstream sucks' opinion. I'm not talking about the whole etymology of the concept, but how narrowly people tend to look at it.. And by pointlessly, I mean by posting a completely irrelevant off-topic post to correct a single guy's shallow logic. That single post then leading towards a massive debate on a thread that it has nothing to do with it.. Your average MAL argument. Lastly, define 'classic'. Series don't have to be 'classic' to be considered mainstream.. |
The Internet is a very bad place, you should never go there. |
| Too many to list in mainstream, cult, and moe, and of course it will differ between Eastern and Western sensibilities. I'm just gonna laugh at the people saying things like Eva or Bebop. Those have been around for 15-20 years already. They've already stood the test of time on one hemisphere or the other. |

So far I am aware of 4 spinoff manga, 2 OVAs, a movie, a play, and a musical all planned because of Code Geass. If Sunrise keeps putting out CG products then CG won't be easily forgotten. Stop changing the subject. The question is, Will CG be remembered in 10 years time? The spinoffs and crap keeps it from being forgotten and it already is closing in on the 10 year mark while current productions are still ongoing. Just take those manga for example, I'll bet my kidney very few people have heard about them outside some of the more fervent fans, and from what I'm seeing they don't exactly leave much impact in their own right either. If we are not talking about fans then who the hell are we talking about? It's the fervent fans that kept NGE's hype high all these years prior to the reboot movies sparking a new interest in the series from anime fans that don't like old graphics. It's funny that you weren't even aware of them before my post but now are so well informed that you know how much impact these series have or will have in the future. I bet you make a killing at the horse races. Just take Votoms, there's loads of spinoffs of it, but it's still not a very well known series. Now Geass has an edge there by being pretty mainstream, but so long as it's spinoffs don't reach a similar renown, they won't amount to much. The topic is talking about being remembed for 10 years, not 30. |
|
| Even though It's only been a year since it was released, I say Madoka is one of those anime that has a chance that it will be remembered in 10 years time. |
| It's One Piece, Naruto or Bleach for sure. |
