    Recently I have been looking for some new shows to watch and I have found a few that I'm not sure about, so I thought you guys could help me out.

    Are any of these shows, in your opinion, a MUST see (or atleast up there with the great ones) and why? Or, should I avoid one?

    Outlaw Star
    Monster
    .Hack//SIGN
    Hunter x Hunter

    I realize Hunter x Hunter and Monster are very popular but with my limited space I am wondering if I "have to" download them.

    Thanks in advance,
    xDM

    Haven't seen the first three... so I can only highly recommend HxH It's a great series and slightly atypical to most shounen types. The main character can display some idiocy but has never turned stupid in a fight (*cough*naruto*cough). Battle tactics there are usually pretty well thought out.

    I've been wanting to see Outlaw Star for a while now though. Tried to download the series once but turned out there was no subs to it. So I haven't bothered to try too hard looking for it again =P So if you ever get your hands on it, lemme know how it is

    Gankutsuou. This is the BEST anime I have ever seen.

    Planetes and Infinite Ryvius are two other very good ones. These three series have the most realistic characters in any anime I've seen.

    DM all of those are very good but Monster is a must see, it is easily one of the best animes ever. Yes, I know very big words but trust me you won't be sorry and it is well worth the HD space.

    In accordance with what Bud said, HxH is a series comparable to Naruto, and thus you could call it a must download. Monster is a must if you like totally realistic murder / psycho (not Hollywood style) mysteries. Outlaw Star is a very good example of a rugged space flight scifi series that's quite similar to Firefly. In my opinion it was a very good series, and well worth downloading, although I don't know if it's a must.

    .Hack//SIGN is a bloody boring anime, but I guess it has its supporters. But most likely if you are so bored that you download .Hack//SIGN, you will be even more bored after watching it. Well, to be honest I haven't watched but 4 or 5 episodes from the beginning, before I got fed up with the odd characters and their odder behaviors. Every single one of them behave as if they were happily stoned, and thus any action is such a bother to initiate... Maybe I will finish it some day. Who knows.

    i recommend that like myself you just give up anime and focus all your time on manga

    But HxH is good

    Thanks a lot guys, I'll be sure to download HxH and Monster (even though I don't know if I'm into the whole murder thing). I'll consider Outlaw Star and probably won't download .Hack//Sign unless someone tells me otherwise.

    .Hack//Sign is not too bad, but the pacing is slow...like SLOW. If you can download all the eps and watch them in one sitting, then you mite enjoy it. Otherwise you'll probably get bored. But it does have awesome music, so you should definately get the soundtrack.
