Sounds like another one of your "I don't know what this is, nor do I want
to find out, and I will spout whatever prejudiced nonsense comes to mind
every time the subject comes up, just as a matter of principle."

If you want to see it that way, you're entitled to your opinion. I
actually meant it more as a "from what I've seen, this probably wouldn't
interest me".
While we're on the subject, I also don't know what constitutes "garage
music", but I'm not going to rush out and find out.

Bebop, other than the ending, and the whole, man, these people are
morons, and nothing ever really changes for them, theme, running through
it, isn't too bad. Akira, I found real odd. Princess Mononoke was a bit
better, but I prefer series myself.
Better bet might be something like Ghost in the Shell.

Akira was good I thought, although the first version I ever saw (on VHS) was so
badly translated that I really had no chance of deconvolving the plot. I thought
Princess Mononoke was excellent, but then most of Miyazaki's work is excellent.
I have a soft spot for Nausicaa myself.

This. I just finished watching Stand Alone Complex, and I think it's one of the
best tv series of any genre/medium I've ever seen.
Also, I'd advise against Neon Genesis Evangelion as an introduction to anime ;-)
I am now trying to decide on what series to watch next...

Does stuff like Speed Racer count as anime?

New one, or older one? But, yeah. The older one is in the same art style
as the recent Anime showing on adult swim, on the cartoon network -
Cashern Sins.
A lot of the newer US stuff, including the newest teen Iron Man, I think
would qualify, since its in the same artistic style, more or less. Most
of the older US work isn't, because they seemed to try damn hard to make
all the characters look even more crap than the really, really, old
Anime did. lol

Every now and then, I do find something actually worth watching:

Or something utterly disturbing:

I guess it isn't just Japan. o_O

I meant the original. I wasn't trying to be picky. I was just wondering i
f
that counts as "anime" to most anime fans, or whether there really needed
to
be tentacles involved or something. :-)
