I want to look into Elfen Lied later but only if it's got an actual story/interesting characters. I don't mind gore, but I'm not a fan of free gore for no reason. It's kinda creepy for someone to watch that imo.

I really liked Higurashi. A lot.
I personally think Elfin Lied was one of the worst anime I've seen in a while. Pointless gore. a character that can't seem to die and is invincible (thus a boring character for me. i wish she'd just die). A stupid main character that makes stupid decisions. (won't spoil it for anyone what those decisions are). and pointless nudity. I don't mind gore. I watched Texhnolyze. that has plenty of blood and gore but it isn't pointless.

Elfin Lied was short. I was glad. I watched it all because it was short. like Fooly Cooly (except that show was awesome).

an anime I've been wanting to watch is some ghost anime that's a comedy as well. I forgot the name of it but it had the word "Ghost" in it. there was also a chick that was a hardcore Christian too but the stuff she would say would be random and therefore funny.

I've also wanted to see the live action Boogiepop Phantom movie as well as the live action Tomie movie. I read the Tomie manga and was fascinated with the entire book. i didn't want it to end. I don't know if there's a anime of it or not though.
 
My favorite mangas are pretty hyperviolent (Blame, Berserk) and right now I'm reading Knights of Cydonia which is a pretty standard giant-robo-in-space-fights-disgusting-and-horrific-monsters romp, but I love it!

Don't forget to add Future Diary to your itinerary. The main character does some stupid things but even he can't spoil the proceedings, the show is good in spite of him.

I really liked the GiTS movie but haven't really gotten into the show. What could you tell me to get me to watch it? Which is the first season and what's the timeline like in relation to the film?
 
Funny of all the animes I have watched, the only anime that seems atleast from memory legit best story....is Monster.

So as much as I like a good amount of what I have seen, admittedly it's mediocre at best.

Can't wait for Koreans to start making anime. They know how to write.
 
I'm not interested in Korean things, their culture and social habits are different from Japan's.
And it's Japanese culture I'm interested in. Well, unless it's this :
