Lain is ing weird.
Personally, my main domain of anime is mecha, and more specifically, Gundam. I got into anime with the original Mobile Suit Gundam (aka 0079), and I've seen every series (read as: Everything but the CE timeline). Zeta Gundam is my favorite, easily, closely followed by Gundam X, as it's the series I took my username from (Shagia Frost, pilot of the NRX-0013-CB Gundam Virsago Cheat Break.) Yeah...I know some of the mechs by their serial numbers. I'm a mecha-phile.
I'm an adult swim junkie so I've seen a little bit of the anime they play on TV. That Ghost in the S strikes me as a crossover between Law and Order and 24. Special crime fighting unit with lots of cool weapons, but they do solve cases and what not. That's what I'd liken it to. I think the main character woman and Jack Bauer would make a good couple if she wasn't a drawing.
They had some samurai show on last year that was pretty neat looking but I forgot what it's called.
Bleach, Outlaw Star, Tokko
My daughter is heavily into it.
She draws, so the art caught her first. She goes in and out of different series, more books than TV/movies.
I have to watch some of them for content, but I'm okay with most of them.
Her teacher last year was really cool about it. She considered it reading so the kids could count them on their reading lists.
One movie.
Wicked City
WARNING!! Very strong sexual content. One might even say hentai.
Mind you, I was about 15 or 16 years old and under heavy hallucinogenic drugs when I watched this. But I still liked it.

That's cool. My parents are ok with it, in that they don't stop me watching it. I don't draw (couldn't to save my life), but I can write...which probably explains why I prefer story and character development over how pretty something looks (Unless it's a mech. THEN, looks matter.)
Samurai Champloo is the anime I think you are talking about it's a good one made by the same people that made Cowboy Bebop Steve Blum the guy who does es voice in the English dubbed version also does the voice for Mugen one of the main characters of Samurai Champloo
He was also the voice of Char Aznable in the Mobile Suit Gundam compilation movies....and the seiyuu (voice actor) for Jet in the dub was in the Xenosaga games....can't remember his character's name, though.
Speed Racer rules.
My old roommate used to be really into this stuff and sometimes I'd get stoned and watch it with him. Is this one you mentioned the one where the humans fight the forest animals? If so, I thought that one was pretty cool. This same guy was always watching one called Escaflowne (sp?). I remember the name because the theme song had it in it.
I've also seen this, good indeed.
ninja scroll>>>your life
I started watching some of the Gundam stuff. I really liked it.
you should check out steamboy, metropolis, ghost in the s 1 and 2, and howl's moving castle. all of those are really good, as are vampire hunter D and ninja scroll. the rest i'm not so big on.
Tell me about it man the dude is the IT guy for animes he has close to 300 voiceovers for anime/videogames/cartoons he did the voice of Wolverine in the 2 X-men legends games and he will continue the Wolverine voice with the new animated series "Wolverine and the X-men"
Eureka 7, Paranoia Agent, and Full Metal Alchemist
Howls Moving Castle is amazing.
Metropolis is a buetiful movie but a bit sad
Neon Genesis Evangelion is strange but great
Fist of The North Star is uber violent and a classic
Both Vampire Hunter D,s are the , the second is gorgeous
Appleseed looks great, story is ok
Grave of The Fireflies is one of the single best movies period that I have ever seen, and it is probably the best made anime I have ever seen
Gantz, and sing are both great series as well ( sing is one of the best)
Cant remember anymore right now, but also Tetsuo the Ironman and Oldboy are really amazing Asian films that arent anime if you get a chance to check em out
Manny, watch Dragonball Z, doesn't matter if you like it or not, just sit through and watch all 291 Episodes. ACTION PACKED just can't describe it.
I would guess it would depend on if he wanted to watch kiddie anime or more adult themed, Z was ok when I was younger, but it is def kiddie anime

Yeah the English version is toned down for kids, but the raw Jap version has violence, lanugage, nudity, blood, gore.
