So, basically, I am watching all the good and elite anime first. You could call me elitist, I just think I am going for the cake first.

So, I think I have already watched all the elite anime. I mean, are there any other famous, mainstream anime that I haven't watched yet? I am trying Accel World but it isn't doing a good job at entertaining me.

Uhh, I'll also lay a request here.

If possible, a fast-paced anime that is about puzzles and mind-blowing stuff? (Like Death Note, Spiral, and so on)

Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

people have said this for years, decades even

things dont get worse, we simply judge the present more, its easier to look back on older shows and find the gems because the bad ones are normally forgotten or lost, if you look at 70's anime your going to see stuff like rose of versailles and gunam and a bunch of classics, you wont be seeing the bad shit unless you purposely look for it, and if you were around durig that time your more inclined to remember things you enjoy than things you didnt

Now cut to now, you have to sit around waiting 3 months for most new shows to start and have to be reminded of things you dislike constantly since they are still relevant.
You are another genius that wrote a wall of text but no suggestion? :(

....wow.
Much sorry if I don't like anime that is about "I bet my robot can defeat your robot!" "Oh maybe it can but I have a secret move I will use in the battle to plot twist the shit!" "Oh but I have allies hidden over there and they will save me at the last second!" "Oh but I have the emergency escape thing so I will be alive!"

I'll admit that the first movie might not be all that great for everybody, but it gets better (the fifth movie even has an 8.75 on MAL!), but, hey, suit yourself.

How about The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya? Great series. Very popular, as well.

Well, if the person is watching the fifth movie of the damn series, that people obviously likes the series and thus will rate it good.

Will try Suzumiya Haruhi, seems interesting

An elitist wouldn't like code:geass. It's not that good. The geass power is just too convinient and it gets a little bit of haremish. Elitists tend to call it LOGH for children.
Nor would they give a 10 to one piece... or give FMA: Brotherhood the same rating as blue exorcist for that matter.. I could kept commenting on that elitist thing the whole night but let me be useful and give you some good shows to watch

You can call them elitist or not but these shows are the best of the best for a reason.. Most of them I've watched, some of them I haven't but I trust them all to be of great value:
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Legend of the galactic heroes
Gurren Lagann
Time of Eve
Ghost in the Shell
Kara no Kyoukai
Ergo Proxy
Welcome to the NHK
The Tatami Galaxy
Mawaru penguindrum
Serial Experiments Lain
Eureka Seven
Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt
Mushishi
I hate the word “fate.” Birth, encounters, partings, success and failures, fortune and misfortunes in life. If our lives are already set in stone by fate, then why are we even born? There are those born to wealthy families, those born to beautiful mothers, and those born into the middle of war or poverty. If that’s all caused by fate, then God is incredibly unfair and cruel. Because, ever since that day, none of us had a future and the only certain thing was that we wouldn’t amount to anything. - Takakura Shouma

Dude you have hardly watched anything!

How can you call yourself an elitist and you have not seen Neon Genesis Evangelion (let alone the End of Evangelion movies or the rebuild movies)? Forget the fact that it's mecha. I don't really like mecha either but the series is great for its physiological factor.

Also you should watch:

-Toradora (greatest rom/com ever made)
-The Haruhi Suzumiya series just so you can watch the ending movie. The greatest thing I've seen.
-Mahou Shojo Madoka Magica
-Spice and Wolf
-Nana
-Welcome to the NHK
-The Monogatari series (starts when Bakemonogatari)
-Natsume Yuujinchou series


Only the best of the best that I have seen so far....
"Relying on someone, helping each other out, and supporting each other. Most would say that's the right thing to do. However, that's just idealistic. In reality, someone always gets the short end of the stick"

Nothing here surprises me anymore.

Alrighty, Lupe, if you look at the shared anime between me and you, you'll find a comprehensive list of everything you need to see under "Unique to Negative-Travis".
For god's sake, you haven't even seen Nadesico.

Haven't even watched Shinsekai Yori and you think anime life is over...

Stop having an ego and "competitiveness" about watching anime. It's not going to help you find the stories you aren't looking for. (Okay, maybe "ego" is the wrong word, because I can talk crap about popular anime I don't jive with... LOL)

What do you not have that I would consider "must watch"..?:

Berserk

Dennou Coil *probably not for you*
Detroit Metal City
Haibane Renmei
Ima, Soko ni Iru Boku

Shinsekai Yori

Mecha is shit
So not only do you generalize a ENTIRE GENRE of something and take a shit on it. You also shit on the people nice enough to recommend you something. Just get out of the forums if you're just going to be an asshole and unappreciative.

Also you are possibly the biggest hypocrite I've ever come across. EVER.

You've seen 45 series and you say you're an elitist? What the fuck is this shit. You need to seriously work on your attitude or at least work on how you voice your opinion.
