Hulu's got all the "Death Note" episodes as well; the show's in their free viewing section.

It's a pretty cool one, but I could not relate to the Main Character...especially near the end.

Check out Code Geass, I think you will love it.

but then some episodes didn't record for some reason, so I stopped watching it. It was fun.

One of my favorite anime series is Gantz. It was only two seasons, but it is really fun. My wife loves it too.

Amongst the Anime I've watched, Code Geass ranks first, by a large margin.

It's a complex story that spans two seasons of 25 episodes each. At the end, one comes away with the satisfied feeling of having witnessed one of the most epic anime of all time

Needless to say, its ranked as one of the top 5(or top 10) Animes of all time by most Anime ranking sites, and the Main Character is ranked as one of the top five Anime Characters of all time...The extent he will go to make the world a safe place for his disabled sister to live is truly breathtaking. The philosophical dilemmas faced by the characters throughout the anime really make this one stand out from the rest of the pack.

Here is the trailer



A fan made AMV(check from the 20 second mark)

&t=20s

The Entire series is available for view on YouTube, courtesy of Bandai Entertainment. however I would suggest the 720p or 1080p HD versions for a much more vivid viewing experience. sadly the HD version is not available on you tube.

some of the cool quotes from the series

~"Does strength represent justice if powerlessness is a crime!?"


~"If you could change the world, would you be a God? or a Demon?"


~"Nunnally's smile...Do you know what it means?
Nunnally cannot accomplish anything by herself...she has to depend on others for everything.
So her smile...her smile is the only way she can thank others for helping....
She was the one who taught me, that there r things in life u can't accomplish by yourself."
