  1. Most anime from this generation are pieces of crap. Naruto, Bleach, Haruhi, FMA, One Piece, just to name a few. There are some good anime from the 2000s but most of them suck. I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but Roots Search is better than most new anime coming out. That's right, I said it and i'm not taking it back.

  2. One of the only good live action adaptations of anime are the 2 Golgo 13 movies that came out in the 70s. There was Golgo 13 (1973) and Golgo 13: Kowloon Assignment (1976). Both of these films are extremely rare and I was actually able to get my hands on the Japanese DVDs. Now, I gave the both films to my friend who knows Japanese and has privately subtitled other films for me and my other friends. So after he subtitled both movies I watched them and surprisingly they were really solid movies. Now keep in mind these two movies came out before the 1983 animated film that most people know.

  3. Grave of the Fireflies. I dare you guys to watch this and not shed a tear. Just try it. I guarantee that you will be crying after watching it. If you don't cry, you have no heart. I was sobbing for more than 20 minutes after watching it for the first time. So what are you waiting for? Go watch it.

  4. When I first started renting anime on VHS I got the dubbed versions. But I found out that most of the VHSs that I rented had horrible dubbing, so after a watching a few tapes I decided to rent subtitled tapes from now on. So I prefer Japanese dialogue over English Dubs.

  5. Those are some I haven't heard of in ages! But here's my list:

    Ox Tales

    The Legend of the Four Kings

    The Heroic Legends of Arislan

    3x3 Eyes

    The Guyver (the original/OVA series)

    Fist of the North Star

    DevilMan

    Moldiver

    Tenchi Muyo

    Ninja Scroll

    Wicked City (this one almost got me in trouble with my parents!)

    Demon City Shinjuku

    Megazone 23

    Dominion Tank Police

    Patlabor

    Macross Plus

    Orguss 02

    AD Police

    Appleseed

    Akira

    Armitage III (though I didn't like it much...might rewatch it)

    Dangaioh

    Lupin III Movies

    Eagle Riders/G Force (it went by a few names...)

    Samurai Pizza Cats

    The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

    Saban's Adventures of Pinocchio (Mokku of the Oak Tree)

    Teknoman (Tekkaman Blade)

    I watched anything I could find on Sci-Fi; Fox Kids or Channel 4...though what do you mean by 'childhood'? I watched most of these (and probably a few more) when I was 8-15...man I watched a lot!

    I also watched some Western cartoons animated in Japan like The Real Ghostbusters; Thundercats; Moomins; Jayce and Wheeled Warriors; Ulysses 31; The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers etc. There's just so much...and listing them all makes me realise just how much cartoons I watched when I was younger and even now...

    It's good to finally see someone who has watched the same type of anime that I watched as a child. There's a ton more to list. Believe it or not, when I was in 5th grade I think, one of my friends had an uncut subtitled Critical Mass copy of Violence Jack: Evil Town. After school we watched it together and I never saw anything like it. I was almost traumatized by the end. Both of us swore to never watch it again until we were 18. I was never the same after it.
