Must-watch animes.

After watching so many animes, I have seen MANY masterpieces. There are SO many GREAT animes out there that people haven't watched or think it's so over-rated and such. Sometimes, animes are just so amazing, I could literally just cry out.

I think people really should appreciate anime/manga more than they do now. To be honest, people just think anime is some cartoon that crazy asian fanatics and such watch/read. It's not just 'some cartoon'. Anime is ART. Anime is AMAZING.

Anime is a combination of Drawing, Designing, and Writing. Sometimes, some anime even have HISTORICAL connections which means, anime can also be education. Like how I learned about homunculus and the existence of alchemy through Fullmetal Alchmest. Plus, watching anime and reading manga will also help you learn the Japanese language.

Mangakas have to think up of the whole plot line for the manga/anime. They have to make up the characters, their pesonalites, their abilites (attack, powers, and such), and their costumes/outfits. They have to create the setting or research the setting and time period. They have to add twists and turns to make the plotline not cliche and they have to DRAW EVERYTHING out, every detail, basics, EVERYTHING!

Take Naruto for instance, the whole existence of Konoha, the Akatsuki, Naruto the character, the origins of the Naruto, this was all made up. It's amazing. Just the setting, Konoha village, is already drawn in detail, the mangaka also made up the many different villages and the conflict between them. The ranking of the ninjas and their jutsu, this all needs research and creativity. The names of the jutsu and each ninja's abilities. The different clans and what they're significant for. The crave of power from different people. The different antagonists (Akatsuki and Orochimaru) and just the idea of Sasuke going to Orochimaru's side and now with Tobi.

And also, the whole idea of Tobi's real idenity being the FIRST Uchiha. This is all so twistedly awesome, keeping us viewers interested. No one would ever suspect the stupid idiotic-looking Tobi who always annoy Deidara to be the FIRST Uchiha, rumored to have been dead. The whole Sharigan idea. How you must kill your own FRIEND to obtain the Mangekyou sharigan, how wicked. Danzou, being always bandaged, turns out to have been experimented on by Orochimaru and has his WHOLE ARM filled with SHARIGANS and his eye is a sharigan as well. He also has the blood of the FIRST HOKAGE!

I can go on and on, but just think about, it's AMAZING! The whole concept, the details, the effort mangakas put in. -sigh- It's unbelievable.

I can also go on and on about Code Geass and how GENIUS the whole idea was and how Lelouche is the smartest anime character EVERR!! I can also rant about how genius and the TOTAL COMPLETE idea of D. Gray-man is as well, etc etc.
