Yeah, I was hooked after watching the first 3 OVA’s. Alucard was one badass protagonist.
As for Ghost in the Shell, I have the whole series but only watched like first 3 episodes. One with the tank is the last one I think. I’ve yet to get into it but it is awesome. Gotta watch movies too after.
Interesting take on GitS, that way you´ll watch it in the right timeline (GitS:SAC plays before the first movie from 1995)
The series has it flaws, but I enjoyed it all along
For horror-themed anime, I would recommend “Blood: The Last Vampire”. Some other good anime include “Kite” (a school girl assassin), “Serial Experiments Lain” and probably one of the best Anime series ever “Cowboy Bebop”.
Serial Experiments Lain is one messed up series. First 2 episodes really messed with my head.
P.S.: I need to figure out how to reply without them being seen as separate posts, but ones that stay hidden. Well they do, but they also appear as separate for some reason. Is this normal lol?
Haven’t watched GitS yet, but I did watch Blood: the Last Vampire, Kite and Jin Roh. Good stuff. Should I watch GitS movie first or the series?
Also Elfen Lied looks interesting. I will definitely check it out as well. Any other dark and twisted anime to look out for? What about the one where a fat ■■■■■■■■ giant is stampeding through old town streets and is about to squash the towns people, possibly getting it’s ass kicked by some flying person? I know one forumer here made a funny gif out of that giant. Probably Ice Car.
