| Yes, it impressed me when I was a child tho xD. These days I can't laugh about it anymore or take it seriously. But that doesn't mean I think they are bad or good either. I'm a bit neutral on this topic. |
| Cardcaptor Sakura is basically one of my favourite anime ever. Also certain seasons of Precure (Which may or may not be known as 'the lost episodes of Glitter Force' in a few years time). |

| Nintama Rantarou is easily one of my all-time favorites. |
| I've heard that Digimon Tamers is great. |

2weeaboo4u said: As for Dennou Coil, what was its timeslot? NHK-E aired Coil twice. Both runs were carried on Saturday evenings around 6:30 pm. The site mahou.org was a great resource that reported the time slots for every anime over quite a number of years. Unfortunately it's no longer available. There is also an archive of ratings data at http://www.geocities.jp/animesityouritu/. Push the pages through Google Translate. Sadly these data are also not maintained, but they are still available. |

| Digimon Adventure. I watched it just few years ago. The last episode almost put me to tears. Pokemon Latios and Latias movie. Will rewatch to refresh my memory. I last watched it very long time ago but I was impressed back then. |
galimx said: What, that's called a kid's show? Who retartd came to this conclusionIe Naki Ko. A "children" show or so they say. But when you watch it, it slowly tears your heart apart. Its very sad and depressing. Dunno how could a kid watch this. |
2weeaboo4u said: That's really useful. I've been looking for some historical information on timeslots because they say a lot about who a show was meant for. Too bad that site doesn't go back further than 2000. It also doesn't include shows that aired on pay-TV satellite channels because ratings data aren't published for them. For instance, I don't think shows carried exclusively on AT-X appear in those reports. None of the major databases at MAL, ANN, or AniDB have timeslot information either. |

| I've tried watching kids anime. It's bad. It's just not interesting. I only enjoy the most refined anime, such as Highschool DxD, Maken-ki, and KissxSis. |
IntroverTurtle said: Kruszer said: Did you use MAL to check for the age ratings? Because those are decided by MAL 's mods and is not an actual representation of whether they are considered a children's anime in Japan. Even the American releases's rating wouldn't be good enough.True, I forgot to check the ratings for all the Ghibli stuff (That and Nausicaa are PG-13). Fixed. Yeah I ordered my list by Age-rating and picked the highest rated "G" titles. Too much of a pain in the ass to get any more specific than that. Plus my list isn't full of that many titles that are "appropriate" for kids (even less that I liked) so they were pretty easy to pick out. I don't have any kids and I don't generally enjoy children's works so I don't usually watch them. |

| Does the Ghost Stories dub count? lol |
| I recently finished Little Battlers Experience and it had some of the most well written villains I have seen in a long time. Thoroughly enjoyable even though it was trying to sell me toys. |

| I watched 3 episodes of Dennou Coil and it looks great. How can a G-rated anime have so much imagination and sense of wonder? You'd think that without age restriction, we will have more creativity. |

What does that say about openness to creativity in the anime industry? |

I don't like being a broken record about this, but you have completed twelve shows. You are in no position to be making this comparison. Why do you keep making statements about things you're completely unqualified to talk about? Can't your superior mind imagine he hasn't updated all the shows he has seen?? |

| Kiki's Delivery Service and Spirited Away really impressed me. Loved everything about them. |

Why do you keep making statements about things you're completely unqualified to talk about? I know I'm ignorant. Even if I'll watch 100 shows I'll remain ignorant. That's why I'm putting my opinions here, so people will challenge them. You provide no argument to make me reconsider my opinion. You just told me not to be too sure of myself, which I know. 15poundfish said: TheBrainintheJar said: It is because most of the people that worked on the shows are veterans in the industry that have worked on some of the best anime to come out in twenty years. The lead writer of Tamers also did Serial Experiments Lain, Texhnolyze, Ghost Hound, etc. A lot of his Sci-fi/cyberpunk shows like tamers has a lot of world building behind its concepts. The original creator of Dennou coil worked on Evangelion, FLCL, Ghost in the Shell, etc. If you are looking for the best anime in general it probably was done by big time veterans of the industry although it doesn't mean everything they make is going to be gold. It is hard to believe but the person responsible for creating Legend of Galactic Heroes also got the horrible adaptation that is Arslan Senki.I'm asking how can for-adults have so much less creativity than kids' show, like this one and Tamers. I noticed that. It's interesting when makers of mature-and-deep stuff like Texhnolyze/NGE make a kids anime. They're forced to take these ideas and make them understandable to kids. If you also add the feat of not dumbing down the material, then it's a huge challenge. We are at our most creative when we're challenged, though. |

Modest_Kuudere said: Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water I noticed that this was the top pick in ANN's list of shows that take place on the ocean that came out today, and apparently Anno was involved. Sounds like it's worth a watch. Thanks for the suggestion. |
| Hotaru no Haka is supposed to be for kids (I think). It left a profound impact on me. |
  |
| Yes, it's called Idaten Jump and for a kid's anime, it's well written. It is also more mature than some shounen manga adaptations, like Suzuka which is melodramatic and cheesy as hell. Most cartoons/animation were made for younger audiences, anyway. Btw, Cardcaptor Sakura is aimed at teenage girls and not something that a pre-schooler or a third grader would normally watch. |

Benienma said: Of course there's been some amazing kids anime out there!I've seen a few different Anime series aimed for children, and some have managed to remain very enjoyable despite containing simple or less mature subject matter. I'm curious if anyone has ever been impressed by a children's anime to the same level and with similar feelings as anime focused for older audiences. I genuinely think a couple of the Pokémon movies are really good and Ojamajo Doremi totally deserves more love. |
 |
| cardcaptor sakura for sure. a mix of magic and real world topics with great character development really pulled it together. it's also amazing that it managed to have canon gay characters in it without any stereotyping. |
| OMG, YES! I was impressed as a kid, and I'm still impressed now by some of the stories those kids anime offered. Romeo no Aoi Sora for example is one that I cannot forget. It really does "power of friendship" better than most shounen. I loved the takeaway of the anime and how easily attached you get to the characters. The Secret Garden is another one that makes me more impressed the more I think about the different aspects of the story. Really some of these shows convey the most meaningful messages ever, and they can be very sad, but they manage to still put a smile on your face. |
