After mentioning some of the animes that I thought were pretty good on a thread that I just visited, I thought I would indulge in some other animes that I think are pretty top notch.

Case Closed is a pretty good one. I don't think it really caught on like it could have. Due probably to it's somewhat childish first appearance. Luckily enough for those of us that stuck around and watched it, we found out that it was actually rather mature, considering that almost every episode involves a murder of some sort. So yeah, Whenever I play Pheonix Wright I can't help but think of this show. Everything seems so similar. Anyway, Jimmy Kuno gets dosed with a shrinking pill by some mysterious men in trenchcoats on the first episode, This makes him appear much younger in appearance to the point of looking like an eight year old. Of course, he retains all of his abilities, (Did I mention he is an ace detective?) and when he winds up staying at his Psuedo Girlfriend's house (Who's father is also a detective, Albeit a somewhat washed up one) while he try's to find a cure from his friend who is a Professor, Jimmy Kuno, creates the alias of Conan Edigawa. Conan always winds up tagging along on Richard's cases, with the help of the Professor's inventions he normally winds up solving them, Although Richard takes all the credit! It's a pretty long running series, I've heard that it goes into 500 hundred plus episodes, much like Dragon Ball Z. It's worth a watch if you've continued reading this far!

Next is Eueaka Seven. This one was pretty good too. It only took just a couple of episodes for me to get the jidst of what was going on. Renton Thurston gets taken aboard the Gekko. A ship comandeered by the Gekko State, a team of "Mercenaries". Actually, I'm not quite sure, I've seen quite the number of episodes, but the beginning ones have still eluded me. Anyway, the story was definitely good for what I've seen. I intend on purchasing some DVDs of this so that I can indulge in it some more. It's been off the air on Adult Swim for a few months now.

Lastly, Shin Chan is pretty interesting to say the least. Most every episode involves some sort of Crude Humor. This is enabled by Shin's love of his own Ass and his inability to show any remorse for busting it out at the most in-oportune times! Otherwise, the show takes many stabs at american pop culture, Showing the fact that the episodes have only been recently brought here. How else would they make references to Snakes on a Plane or What-Not? If you can handle some reletively low brow, but often well-written comedy, This one is definitely worth a look.

I've been watching a higher number of new animes recently too, (Red Garden, Guyver, Kyo Kara Moah) and more that I've yet to watch. (Melody of Oblivion, Ikki Tousen, Texhonolyze) so yeah. I might have some more things to say soon. But I just wanted to ramble a little more about this without taking up space on the forum. If you've been reading this, Thank you, and have a good night!
