What have you rated 10/10?

[fabio de lunatico]

I think I love the quieter Ghibli films because I'm so cynical and jaded. Roger Ebert, talking about Totoro, put it best:

"Here is a children's film made for the world we should live in, rather than the one we occupy."

But that's not to say that I enjoy "feel-good" anime in general. Last year I watched Kamichu, a show often described as Ghibli-esque, and often it came across as mawkishly sentimental - something that I don't get from Ghibli's film at all. Perhaps the characterization isn't as good, or maybe it's the distinct, unmistakable whiff of pandering to a male audience.

Subjectively, I'd give anything in my top 10 a 10/10, however it would be harder to say objectively as there is rarely anything trully 'perfect'. It would probably go to something like Monster or the first Ghost in the Shell film.

I think that had I watched Millennium Actress in Japanese, I would have given it a 9. The dub was okay, but I often feel that a lacklustre dub can take from a movie or a series. So I reckon I'll have to re-watch it soon :]

from the top of my head I can only think of the twelve kingdoms.

-Digimon X-Evolution.
-Naruto: Dai Katsugeki!! Yuki Hime Shinobu Houjou Dattebayo! Special: Konoha Annual Sports Festival.

Your joking. Please. Your joking... Right??

To be honest, I did this list mid-08, so I couldn't really remember much of X-Evolution except that it was Digimon, and it had sweet CG, so it got 10, until further notice, lol. As for the Naruto Special, that is just plain hilarious.

Man. No Digimon should ever get 10/10 :lol:

Ah well

Digimon FTW *glare*. At least it's not very generic

I tried to watch it dubbed in order to see more the visuals. However, I quickly switched to Japanese after about 15-20 minutes because of the dub, and the lead voice actress in particular, not being very good. I didn't regret it - it was a much more enjoyable film to watch with the usual standard of excellent Japanese voice acting.

After a quick look at MAL i thought i hadn't ever rated an anime with a 10...then i came across Trigun which i gave a 10. In hindsight, maybe a 9 would of been better, since the ending isn't quite up to scratch (+1 for not changing his morals and how he operated, -10 for not killing someone who isn't likely to ever change). So far i've not rated any Manga a 10

Full Metal Panic! - FMP has pretty much everything I love. Great comedy, good "fleshed out" characters, awesome action, cool mecha, lovely romance, a well thought out story.

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu - Funniest anime ever.

Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid - The same as the first season but half the episodes and 10 times the awesomeness.

Chobits - The greatest social commentary on Japanese ideas of sexuality combined with the cutest anime girl ever (Chii) and the best male protaginist ever (Hideki) makes for an awesome series.

Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex 1st GIG - The greatest dialogue, clever plot twists and philosophies, the best dub ever and stunning animation.

Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG - Same as before.

Perfect Blue - Confusing as hell for a while, but a very twisted and sobering look at the Japanese idol industry.

I thought the Hunter x Hunter anime supplemented everything that the manga lacked. Everything--for me, at least--culminated in one of the most adeptly executed adaptations of a shonen manga I've seen.

The music; the so-called "filler" in canon episodes--a lot of which artistically improved the show exponentially, and which few other series have been able to pull off so well; the direction of the episodes--each of these factors made Hunter x Hunter brilliant. Though, in fairness, it took a while to take off.

But, when it did...

 

[awadama]

I refuse to give anything a 10, ever. So I gave 9s to...

Anime
One Piece: Episode of Alabaster (...eh?)
Paprika (...eh?!

Manga
Black Cat
Fairy Tail
One Piece

...I do pay more attention to my manga list.

Death Note
Very gripping also one of the very few which is good as a manga and anime

Code Geass (manga)
I didn't like the manga but the anime's amazing!!

Kuroshitsuji (anime)
First watched it on Sunday and I found it ever so addicting (even though I don't like subs ever so much!!)

Full Metal Alchemist (manga)
Maybe I like it more then the anime because it has some other characters?
who knows...

 

[fabio de lunatico]

I refuse to give anything a 10, ever.

Why is that? I'm going to pre-empt your response and say that when I score something 10, it doesn't mean that it's "perfect".

 

[hopeful_monster]

from the top of my head I can only think of the twelve kingdoms.

If they ever finish it maybe.
Rahxpehon- Big Suprise
Cowboy Bebop - Knockin' on Heaven's Door- Slick, action packed, and everything good about the series in 1hr54min
Legend of the Galactic Heroes 110 episodes long and felt too short. Detailed, but straight forward enough not to get confusing, well defined characters and not afraid to kill ANYONE.

It would for me!

Code Geass (manga)
I didn't like the manga but the anime's amazing!!

So you gave the manga a 10, even though you dont like it?



Anyway;

Code Geass Season 1 - 10/10

Totally loved it.

Going with anime only for now...

Gankutsuou: It was shaping up to be stylish but merely "good" at first. Then as things got rolling it sucked me in so deep I couldn't stop watching. I wouldn't do anything differently if I got to change anything (except possibly make the opening song less boring but it does fit...), so it's a 10.

Utena: I loved every second of every episode (and movie) of this entire series.

Slayers (ignoring TRY): Does exactly what it set out to do without flaking out. I didn't like the third season much at all so with that included it would not be a 10. The rest however makes the grade, even if it's not very sensible.

Now and Then Here and There: Seemed boring until the end of the first episode and then after that sneaky way of luring people in it pulled no punches for the rest of the series. It was a very significant series for me.

Millennium Actress: This should have been boring, but it ended up being my favourite Kon movie. Lovely music and visuals accompanying a suitably weird, surreal storyline. High marks to all the other Kon works too but I'd better not spam up my list.

Giant Robo: Another that they couldn't really have done any better. It nails the concept utterly and is great fun to watch.

FLCL: I can watch this again and again without being any less entertained.

5 Centimeters Per Second is the one thing that stands out to me as perfect. Art, story and music were all top notch.

Giant Robo: Another that they couldn't really have done any better. It nails the concept utterly and is great fun to watch.

Whoa, I never knew you were a Giant Robo fan. That must make, what, a dozen of us worldwide? The kids don't know what they're missing.

I was one of the whole two people who voted for Alberto in the 2008 character battles ;D

Best impulse VHS purchase I ever made.

It's insane that most people still won't give it a try with such a cheap R1 set out there.
