[I.R Joey]

It's been a while since we've done a thread like this, and you know with the new board I thought we might want to again.

In my opinion:

Best Series: Escaflowne

Worst Series: Tenchi "anything"
Worst Movie: Fist of the North Star

[DarthNuriko]

Best Series: Yu-gi-oh!! (It's my current favorite. I just love it.)
Best Movie: Jin-roh (Haven't seen Metropolis or the Escaflowne movie yet...)

Worst Series: I haven't seen anything THAT revolting yet. ^__^;;
Worst Movie: Spriggan. x__X

[Sandoz]

Best Series: Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Best Movie: TIE between End of Evangelion and Adolescance of Utena.

Worst Series: Dragon Ball Z (its an insult to the medium)
Worst Movie: Darkside Blues. (I actually my felt brain cells dying watching this one)

[EinBebop]

Best Series: Cowboy Bebop (currently Yu Yu Hakusho)
Best Movie: Patlabor 1

For some reason I have yet to see an anime movie that thrilled me...

Worst series: Gasaraki ... barely made it through the first episode; didn't bother with any others
Worst Movie: Princess Mononoke

[Behonkiss]

Best show and movie: I've barely seen any anime outside of CN, so I won't attempt this.

Worst show: Pilot Candidate
Worst movie: DBZ: Lord Slug, and the 1st Pokémon movie.

[Mackenzie Rainelle]

Best Series: Slayers (It's a great watch and it practically started the entire sword and sorcery genre in anime)
Best Movie: Metropolis

Worst Series: Pokemon
Worst Movie: X1999 (As much as I love Rintaro and the artwork, the plot sucked and the ending was unintentionally funny)

Best Dub: Cowboy Bebop
Worst Dub: Lost Universe

Best Manga to Anime Adaption: Inuyasha
Worst Manga to Anime Adaption: Yu-Gi-Oh!

Best Artwork: Petshop of Horrors
Worst Artwork: Hamtaro

Most Disturbing: Ai no Kusabi

Strangest: Furi Kuri

Most Boring Plot: Slam Dunk

Most Interesting Characters: Schwartz (Weiss Kreuz)
Least Interesting Characters: Most of the cast of Zoids Zero

[Sheamon]

Best? Dunno about that. I can tell you my favorites.

Favorite Series: Escaflowne
Favorite Movie: Galaxy Express 999

Least Favorite Series: Pilot Candidate
Least Favorite Movie: Take your pick of the DBZ ones.

[Watagashi]

Best Series: Martian Successor Nadesico (action, suspence, comedy, WHOOSH! :D)
Best Movie: .... I don't know :p

Worst Series: Hamtaro (It's so evil... :eek: )
Worst Movie: Patlabor 2 (All they did was talk the whole time; we didn't even bother watching the ending it was so boring :rolleyes: )

[Ravenger]

Well I'll put in my two cents...

Best Anime: Ranma 1/2(Believe me out of what little I have seen this was close)
Worst Anime: Pilot Candidate(At least Pokemon and Hamtaro have a semblence of a plot behind them)

[Melon109]

Best Series: Cowboy BeBop
Worst Series: Pokemon

Best Movie: Princess Mononoke
Worst Movie: Patlabor 2

[Gyro]

Best Series: Cowboy Bebop
Worst Series: Pokemon

Best Movie: I haven't seen many, but I'd say the YuYu Hakusho movie. I'm taking an educated guess and saying I will like Cowboy Bebop: Knocking on Heaven's door the best when it comes out. :D
Worst Movie: That Sailor Moon movie.

[Ikwig]

Of what I've seen:

Best series: tie between Cowboy Bebop and Ranma 1/2 (for completely different reasons; against each other the two aren't even comparable!)

Worst series: Hamtaro (for reasons which I won't try to analyze, it makes me think of the Teletubbies everytime I see it.)

I haven't seen any movies yet, so no opinions from me.

[Nickdisk]

Best Anime - Cardcaptors
Worst Anime(s) - Yu-Gi-oh & Pokemon

[Leaping Larry Jojo]

WORST MOVIE?

I personally thought Patlabor 2 was a brilliant "what if?" political thriller by Oshii. Yeah, it's talky, like all Mamoru Oshii films are...but also strangely spooky, especially if you consider the events of September 11th. I watched this film a few weeks after the event...and it's amazing how well it predicted what the reactions of the media, military and citizens would be after a "terrorist" attack. A lot of people thought Patlabor 2 was far-fetched before 09/11...but it turns out it nailed much of the political atmosphere that would be associated with such an event. Much more thought-provoking and intelligent than The Siege.

And if you think Pokemon's the worst series ever...you guys haven't REALLY seen anime. :p

For the record, I think Yu-Gi-Oh is the single worst piece of anime tripe on TV. At least Pokemon tries to work an adventure around each episode.

[metaphysician]

Best Series: Evangelion, of course
Best Movie: Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust

Worst Series: insufficient experience
Worst Movie: ditto

[Seafaring]

Best series: Tenchi Muyo(OAV)
Best Movie: Princess Mononoke, Tenchi Muyo: In love

Worst series: Zoids and Pilot Candidate
Worst Movie: 3rd tenchi movie
