DBZ, Ranma, Transformers, Gundam, Naruto, Bleach, Evangelion.....
Anime series that, more or less, stood the test of time. Big hits on from the Land of the Rising Sun.
Yes, we've seen many more anime titles reach beyond Japan, but not too many people know of these other....interesting titles that IMO have made their respective marks in this form of animation.

Who, or what, are YOUR "Anime Legends"?
Why make this list, you ask?
To bring great classics into the spotlight, and to introduce other anime greats to a larger audience without sacrificing its content (thank you 4Kids! :meekins: ).
Feel free to compliment the dubs, too!
Vocally and story-wise, they're not ALL bad (except the 4Kids' version of One Piece....they're line-up blows. NONE of 'em fit their characters!).

A personal favorite of mine is Revolutionary Girl Utena and Noir.

BoBoBo-Bo Bo-BoBo. That show was awesome. Unfortunately, it got cancelled after 76 episodes and they had to put in a last-minute and unexpected ending. At least they managed to make it funny. If you need a sample, here's what I thought was a good episode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1x2Uipwa4Hk Heh, the video game spoofs in the third part of that episode were brilliant.

I'd pick Bleach & Detective Conan, but I also like Death note and Shaman King

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Akira yet. That's probably one of the most important titles that ousted Anime out of the obscure area and put it into American pop culture.

So, I guess as opposed to an opening, since it has none, I'll just post one of the most memorable scenes:

I choose not to post my big list of evil, as it will take too much time. Instead, the opening sequences of my favorite anime (cancelled, completed, and ongoing):

One Piece Openings 1-6: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcpQMgNXfJ0

.hack//SIGN Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43O7Dyd3QtU

.hack//Legend of the Twilight Bracelet Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKIM4AeU3ik

.hack//Roots Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdOnvz5UMSo

I do admit, though, that Haseo is a tad Sasuke-ish, which doesn't help the fact that he is voiced with the same voice as the Naruto character.

Bleach Openings 1-4 (it says all, but there's at least one omitted): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9j3Nbp5ZsZs

Rurouni kenshin 1st Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLJf_pnQl68

Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tsr35T-O47g

Konjiki no Gash Bell (Zatch Bell in US) Opening 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aMy1lJs ... re=related


heheh... I guess that IS a big list of evil... Anyway, that's just anime I've seen and liked. There's plenty more manga I've read and liked...

(Naruto and Death Note aren't on the list because my EMO-dar points to them like a spear. Yugioh and Yugioh GX aren't on the list because 4Kids ruined them for me. One Piece was saved just in time.)

Baki I'm surprised someone besides me knows of Sakigake and Jungle King! People think I'm crazy when I talk about those. Anyways, I have to say Slam Dunk! It brought basketball to Japan (well made it popular at least).
