@Guild McCommunist :
You like movies, but not anime right ?
What in anime doesn't you like ? Is it because it's animated ?
If it's the fact it's animated, I understand your point of view.
Is there a compromise in that ? Like 3D CG (final fantasy spirit within, is a good compromise between realistic pictures and animated pictures)
or is it their story not suiting your taste ?
(sorry, there are a lot of questions
)
You said you don't like peoples with super power shooting energy out of their hands, but there are a lot more anime with normal people/country/story which are cool too.
In fact I do like them more than sci-fi, I like story where it's an every day story, being drama, comical, sports, historical, futuristic or even mixed genre (Hikaru no go).
I like Nodame Cantabile (even if it's based on comical situation), it's story about a japanese Orchestral conductor wishing to learn and practice in europe.
They even made it a real actor movie, because the story is real (they even engaged a real conductor).
It let discover of few real classical composer, and give the envy to listen to them.
The same for Nana (from Ai Yazawa), it's a manga, adapted in anime, adapted in movie. it's every day life story about a music group star becoming famous.
Or the many Ghibli story : Ocean waves, Mimi wo Sumaseba, Only yesterday
or again many Sports based anime : baseball, football, GRS, tennis, volleyball, etc
I really enjoy baseball based anime, like Touch (old), or Major (actually aired), where it's based on self development, combative spirit etc.
That's only examples from many existing realistic and cool people anime.

I enjoy good anime. A lot of it can be crappy or below quality.
Personally I enjoyed Ghost in the Shell and Ergo Proxy.

Don't watch much anime series anymore.
I used to, and probably still would, but it seems like Japan's made some shitty ones and realized that they sell, so they made more.
I still enjoy anime film, except of course for the ones based on shitty series.
Honestly, the youngest anime series I remember I enjoyed was probably Desert Punk.
I've found that anime exceeding usually 26 episodes tend to lack quality, and suffer from huge cliches.
Of course, there are some exceptions. There is nothing particularly brilliant about Code Geass, Death Note, or Elfen Lied. They were mediocre, at best.

I've been watching the commercially dubbed ones for a while. Dragonball Z and Sailor Moon were my first two I think, not that I got much out of them when I was young (I don't remember the age exactly, probably somewhere from four to six).
I just started watching subed animes. I downloaded the generic ones: Lucky Star, FLCL, and Rlfen Lied. I also have the unofficial Touhou anime and some Miyazaki films (if those count) that I've yet to watch.

i used to watch a lot of anime, last i updated my list it was hovering above 420 series. and that was awhile ago.
newer seasons are coming with crap so these days i find myself rewatching my favourites Aria, Mushishi, YKK e.t.c though every once in awhile i drop on a new series, i enjoyed eden of the east quite a bit.

Anime to me is overrated, however...there are other unique anime out there like Imikumi (I didn't spell it right) and a few others.
We should have 'What genre of anime do you like?'
