| This summer was my anime debut and right off the bat i seen some great shows like FMA:B, Clannad, and the fate series. But now i can't seem too find an anime that isn't A: Ripoff B: Super cliche C: Good idea but crammed into 14 eps SO, please list anime that you guys consider to be unique works of art. Stuff that truly master their genres and will keep me on my anime binge. I'm not picky about the genre but I'd at least prefer some action and make sure you only recommend anime that you personally considered to be the best of the best. Mod Edit: Made title descriptive. |

| short ones generally aren't going to be as good as longer ones... but code geass, bakemonogatari, mononoke, aoi no bungaku, psychopass, durarara, one outs, arakawa under the bridge, claymore, darker than black, gantz, danshi koukousei no nichijou, hellsing ultimate (ova, 6 or 8 eps i think) gintama, monster are longer ones but they're good (if it's too long, you can always stop at ep 13/14 or w.e) you could also try studio ghibli movies.. |
| Cowboy Bebop Berserk Darker Than Black |
| Berserk - there's a reason why it's my favorite. It's a Master Piece. Shigurui - there are a lot of Samurai Anime out there, but this one just stands out. Baccano - Huge cast + the way the story is put together is perfect. A lot of things going on here and there but at the end of the day each of their paths intertwine and you will understand what happened that lead to such events. |
 |
| Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex While I don't consider the first season a masterpiece, the second I do. The first has a cliché core plot but diluted in an amazing mystery, while the second is perfect in everything. Both seasons have some awesome action towards the end, and some action in the side stories too. Shinsekai Yori There is action only in the first arc (episodes 5-7) and the last (episodes 18-25), but the plot is as original and amazing as possible. Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Iit breaks your condition about length, it has only 12 episodes, but all other conditions are satisfied. Texhnolyze A few action scenes here and there, but they're far from being the focus, although the final onslaught is pretty awesome. The plot is a true masterpiece, although it's slow and takes time to understand. |

| Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica Le Portrait de Petite Cossette Gankutsuou (if your eyes can handle the art style...) ... see my list for more. |

| Death billiards (this is very unique, it's a work of art in a different manner than visually. It is visually stimulating as well however. Very short, but good.) Ayakashi: Japanese Classic Horror Mononoke (this is the series not the movie) Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust (I've always thought that this anime was really unique) Sweat punch (this is a series of artistic shorts. I really enjoyed them) These are ones that I liked. They don't have too much action, but are still good. There are ones that are short, and still convey what they want. So, I would suggest you check some of these out.) |

If nothing is original he shouldn't be asking for anything original - he is. It's a stupid question and this thread is full of stupid answers. Why am I not recommending anything? You literally answered this yourself. |

There's series that people are going to feel are more original than others, some may take subtle hints from other anime, while other's are completely rip offs. |
