Soul Eater began as a very impressive and engaging anime that had a lot to offer. The pleasant mix of comedy, action and character development made it something easy to watch, as well as enjoyable. Sadly though, the experience pummels by the 25th (Estimated) episode.
The first half of Soul Eater is fun and enjoyable to watch. The characters are presented seriously as well as playfully. As the series moved on, the comedy lessened and the seriousness began. In the episodes later on as it got more serious, I lost interest. The story started to progressively get slower and slower (not DBZ slow, but slow). It
...
started as a great mythology, but then started to be a story that seemed to be a mix of being too slow or being too rushed.
It's been over a year since I watched a Soul Eater episode and I left off on episode 34 (I haven't updated my lists in awhile... AWHILE) and I remember not even caring what happens.
Overall experience of Soul Eater is a great one. I wouldn't highly recommend it, but it is definitely something anyone can enjoy. I was just bothered by the pace change in the later episodes, but I am sure that doesn't bother most. If you're looking for a 'FMA' type series where the comedy and action is well mixed, then start here. You'll get some of what you want.

Naruto, a lot of the new generations first favorite anime. It was not my first, I am with the last gen with Sailor Moon, DBZ and others. Naruto I started watching around... when it first came out. It was the first of it's kind, it lost spunk near the end, but it really kept you going for the first 135 episodes.
Story:
It was different then most animes, people don't admit it, but it was. It wasn't always about Naruto though, which sometimes made me wonder why Kishimoto called it Naruto. The story follows mainly Team 7 (Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura) and the journeys they have until
...
Sasuke starts to split, then it is about getting Sasuke back. The story is good, but reminds me of DBZ at times; too much talking, so the story takes a bit to be told. Despite that fact, the story still kept me interested until Sasuke finally left and then fillers. Those turned me off a bit, but I still finished it. (By the way, Shippuuden [Naruto part 2] is all about getting Sasuke back, if you didn't like that story, then don't bother watching Naruto Shippuuden)
Art:
A bit plan, but I liked how all the characters looked different. They all had different styles and designs to them. Rock Lee looked different from Orochimaru. Each character had distinct personalites to, but I'll get to that. The backgrounds were okay, but some looked great, like the Valley of The End where Naruto and Sasuke fought. I thought that was very interesting and symbolic.
Sound:
If you think of ninja music what do you think of? The music from Naruto. I think they really matched everything when it came to sound. The sound and music were the best bits from this show. Who ever this composer is, he made something out of himself because the show's music was much to its success as well as everything else.
Characters:
They are all different, I love that. Rock Lee has bushy eye brows, very positive and has simple eyes while Choji is huge, simple minded, and easily angered. Each character is different and that makes Naruto stand out to me. Some characters I didn't like, but every show has that. Naruto's character changes a lot and that bothered me through out this series, but overall, I still loved the characters.
Overall:
I loved this series, if you are going to watch it, watch until at least episode 135 and then, if you want, head to Shippuuden. I don't like Shippuuden very much, but if you gave Naruto all ten's, I highly recommend it.
8/10

I am shocked not to find this ranked in the top ten. I am really shocked. This beats Naruto, Death Note, Bleach, and many others above it.
Story
Simple and Juicy. Unlike animes like Naruto or bleach, nothing here is forced out. It has GREAT flow. I love how it flows. Not fast not slow and honestly, just start anywhere in the first ten episodes and you understand. The story is very touching and thoughtful. I really enjoyed the end, although i hated it had to end. The author really put her heart into this series. The anime is VERY different from the Manga, but she still
...
told the studio what to do and how to do it. She really pulled it off.
Art
The art is amazing. I really liked every design of every character and even the symbols and items have much thought. I really love the cities and the backgrounds too. FMA really has it's own world
Sound
Some of it I didn't like. The sounds of alchemy were ALWAYS the same and explosions were to. But I would have to say, the fun FXs like in the episodes where it was all fun, they were silly and fit the mood. I loved those =D
Characters
I love each and every one of them. The designs, personalities, and their clothing always suited them. Maes Hughes was one of my favorites, you rarely see characters like him. Roy was interesting and thought out. He had great alchemy and his personality really suited the way he was drawn. Edward really struck me as what he was, brave, thoughtful, smart and heroic. He is still one of my favorite characters in anime. Alphonse is great too. The armor outside makes you think, "O_O ROBOT!" but after you really see him and hear him speak, he is nice and thoughtful. All the characters were great and contributed in their own way.
Overall, definitely should e in the top ten. All the others are Hype. To me, this anime will never get old. It will be a classic forever and I have a feeling someday, 30 years from now, people will still be watching it. Like Scooby-Doo, only much better.

I know People are not going to like this, but I do not like this series and I cannot rank this in any top 100 animes.
Story
Confusing and unexciting. I have a rule when I watch new anime, Watch the first 5-10 episodes, then make judgment, I watched 43 and I could not stand the story. It seemed as if the author didn't put much thought until it became popular. It didn't have much of a flow to me neither. It seemed as if they forced out things, like Naruto does, only this seemed more forced. Like when Ichigo fought that thing that had the face
...
of his mother. It seemed very cliche.
Art
The animation is okay, but the characters, clothing and amongst other things doesn't strike me as anything original. Black robes, big boobs... The only thing I really liked was Chad and Rukia. The two appealing drawings in this anime.
Sound
Actually, the sound is good and the music is Appealing. The only thing I really liked from Bleach
Characters
Now some of the characters bother me. As I said, the only two original designs are Rukia and Chad. Both look great but the others are just... not too great. The characters in general, in terms of the series, are decent. I do like Ichigo, but he has moments when he seems very out of character. A lot of moments. It seems all the characters change a lot and little things like that strike me. x_x
Overall, Didn't like it, and never going to finish this. I wish it was a little more thought out. I can't stand it. It is like one piece, it seems it will never end. It will eventually, but it should soon.

Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away... I would say his best film or arguably one of the best animates Disney films.
Story
The story was a bit strange I must say. It was a little hard to get if you were the one half asleep watching this as I was, but the second time I watched this I felt like an idiot not getting it. The story really grabs you, but then again there are parts that make you go "hmmmm." It is astounding how a single man could come up with this! Magi really.
Art/Animation
You don't see anything like this anymore. The animation is interesting and breath-taking. The characters
...
are also VERY unique and drawn in a very unusual way. The way Miyazaki animates is interesting. He is a very realistic animator. Everything he animates is based off what someone would really do. Like the scene when Chihiro was putting her shoes on, she didn't just slip them on, she put them on as if she were a real person. That struck me once I saw it.
Sound
To be blunt, the music could have been much better, but it does not in anyway ruin this film.
Characters
As I already stated, they are all drawn in unusual ways, but they look amazing. My favorite would have to be the Stink Spirit. It was wildly drawn and it really looked like it stunk x_x
Overall, I loved it! and so did my 6 year old sister! We watched it a lot. It is truly a beautiful work of masterpiece. The art is amazing and it really what makes this movie a masterpiece. Go Miyazaki!

Akira is one of the greatest animes, and After watching it, I see why. It is much better then most anime today and you never see anime movies with beautiful animation like this anymore. The colors were great and so was everything else. Especially the music, it was very different and always suited the mood.
Although the story is a little confusing, it is still very enjoyable. The characters are outstanding and you an relate to them... other then the being taken and tested on part of it. Tetsuo is a great character and seriously misunderstood. His hair grows periodically through the movie, I think this
...
is where Toriyama got his ideas for DBZ.
Overall I loved it, I edit with it sometimes too, this two hour movie was DEFINITELY worth every second.
