One of the first ones I saw was Golgo 13, if I'm honest I couldn't stand it and it actaully put me off anime for some years to come. It was one scene involving some form of sexual violence that I remember particularly disturbing me, although I can't really remember as I've pretty much blanked it out of my head now. So yeah overreated and stopped watching anime for some time.
I was expecting an anime style black James Bond, and at the time I had yet to watch much darker anime or even many 18 films, so I had the wrong expectations in a way, though it was kinda like a black James bond.

Still it is an iconic film ,R.I.P Osamu Dezaki

It was when Cowboy Bebop was being shown on CNX for the first time. I was reluctant to give anime another try at first because at the time I had spent the last couple years completely away from any anime, none of my friends were into it either and I had half convinced myself that anime was really just rubbish.
But thankfully the title of Cowboy Bebop was just too much for me to resist so I gave it a try. Straight away Bebop reignited my love for good anime like never before.

I did lose my faith in anime once more some years later, I can't even really recall why now, I think I just went through a period of watcing really bad shows so decided to stop again. Champloo was one of the key shows that got me back into it again.


@Jaymii, Illmeastro: Actually certain quantum physics therories suggest that your perception of things really does create the world around you. So basically it is true, you just gotta believe!
 
to be honest il watch any anime once and if i like it il watch it again and again and again over time of course and if its a anime that good but saddening or has tragedy or a love triangle, il won't watch it again but it depends on the anime

Nope what you see is true, wether you belive it or not.
If what you think should happen differs from what you see what you are thinking is wrong. End of story.
That's the basis of scientific method.
This is why experiments that give unexpected results are the important ones.

The only things regarded as true are proved by Proof by contradiction or by being an axiom. Such as the near legandaryhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principia_Mathematica#Quotations

Blast it, that's the second time Golgo's been mentioned in this thread while I wasn't here.

I remember seeing the first Golgo film on the sci-fi channel fairly early on as well. I hated it the first time through (I know the scene you're referring to and yeah, it's pretty nasty), but the look of the film really stuck with me. Going back to it now, I still think it's often a very bleak and unpleasant film to watch, but there's a lot of interesting visual techniques going on and Dezaki does a remarkable job with the action scenes too.
 
@Reaper: lol @ assuming that current human understanding has advanced to the stage where you can be so sure about anything.
 
Which is as much as you or I posibly can.
I only think I know what I think

You can be unsure about everything, but you can rule out all the stuff that is plain wrong. That's how physics as a science works.

You believe in anything supernatural, out of curiosity?

supernatural things dont exist. i mean if supernatural things did exist there would be people practicing magic like harry potter angels and demons would be walking around, well saying the politicians are demons lol.
to tell you the truth if theres a god then why doesn't he show him self instead of having others telling other about him - answer religions man made to gather the masses to get people to think that there ideas are good.

Not particularly, used to as a kid.
Now I just see things like ghosts as a romantic notion.

If these things are real they clearly don't effect us to much, no point being worried abut them.
 
come on I mean current model alows for stuff to just spontaneously happen anyway, nothing needs to be there to cause most of it (none of those are negative entropy processes).

Now a fallen tree spontaneously uprighting itself would need external action.

I'm sorry to say this dude, but I clearly didn't ask you.

Thanks for the response, Reaper. I'm similar. It's not logical to me.
