Your favourite is ghost in the shell yet you don't give it a 10? Do you give anything a 10?

Attack on Titan is really good imo, was one of the first anime I saw. As for Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, I haven't actually seen it yet, always been wanting to but never had the time.

If you haven't... You really have to watch it...

Once you start you will never want to hit the pause button, that's for sure ;

get ready 64ep x 24 min each you will need quite a lot of time...

Yeah, I've seen the first 2 episodes, just haven't really had time to watch more. 64 eps isn't too much, Hunter x Hunter was 148, which if you haven't seen I would recommended highly, it's actually amazing.

The trailers of Hunter x Hunter online don't look very promising...

But we know that a bad trailer doesn't always mean a bad movie, sometimes trailers suck ;&

is't the point of a trailer to show the movie (Tv series, whatever..) in a good light?....

The thing is, the trailers don't fully show what the anime is capable of. At first, hunter x hunter looks like a typical shonen and kinda looks really childish. And I'll agree, with the first couple of episodes it will seem like that. But when you actually get to the story, it just blows you away. The arcs flow very smoothly and are very directly linked, and tbf in one or two of the arcs you actually doubt if it's a shonen as it actually can have a dark side as well. I normally rate anime on enjoyment levels, but most people I've seen drop the anime usually after the first two episodes. After the first two episodes it gets down to the main storyline and keeps you hooked. I'd say give the first 3 eps a try and if it intrigues you then carry on and I guarantee you will not regret it.

For Elfen lied I really liked the way they combined all this blood, violence and hatred with the pure idea of a friendship or even love... the ending left me a little frustrated

Wolf's rain looks good for now, I think the story will be sad.

my next one will be Hunter x Hunter and then Code Geass... let's not go ahead of my self though...
I am on 4ep of Wolf's Rain ;^ )

Nah you're right. Anything new has been pretty shitty these days with some exceptions. A lot of tropes are overused now its really sad (Exceptions would be like My next life as a villainess that show was funny asf)

My favorite show is Hunter X Hunter!
