I'm kinda new, so I don't know if it's been asked before and anyway if it is, your taste can change :D

You can list more than 5 (but please, not more than 10), and basically this is also to know what are your fave series, because it's obvious that if you recommend something it means you really like it :right:

Here's the top 5 I'd recommend to others (and these are also my fave series at the moment):
Inu Yasha
Card Captor Sakura
Slayers
Vision of Escaflowne
Fruits Basket

Now it's your turn!

Ok, you said no more than 10...

One Piece
Trigun
Cowboy Bebop
Serial Experiments Lain
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Boogiepop Phantom
Hellsing
Gensomaden Saiyuki
Fushigi no Umi no Nadia
Kare Kano ( this is to add some variety, because the list, apart from One Piece, is more on the "gloomy" or "tragic" side o_O; )

Of course I like Fruits Basket! Who doesn't? XD
That series is just to cute! And it's not the typical shojo as well, which adds a certain touch to it!

Tell me about it! I don't know how anyone can hate Fruits Basket (unless you're not into shoujo for the slightest bit), but it's one of the best series I've ever seen. Such a shame it's only 26 episodes though. :(

I must see this Fruits Basket someday... I've heard it's nice, but I don't know if it's my genre :P

Ah Fortune, this is one of the best shoujos I have seen. Like Eternal Life said, it's not your typical shoujo because there's not any of those "mushy mushy" scenes. It's a basically an sad and yet cheerful comedy anime and it....oh, it's too good to put in words. You have to at least give it a try. :)

I've heard it's not a typical shoujo series, but maybe I still have to see the "typical" shoujo series, so I don't care about it being typical or not. The thing that leaves me some doubts is the style of the series. I've only looked at some images and it reminded me of a sort of mix between Clamp and Sailor Moon style (the style of the anime).

That's true, but the style of the drawings, though it may look Sailormoon-ish and CLAMP-ish, fits perfectly with the story. Ah, well, it's your decision if you want to watch it or not, I'm just saying it's really good despite the style. :)

Tenchi Muyo (Origional OVA.. ..and "Universe" TV series to a lesser extent.. avoid tenchi in tokyo like the plauge it is)

Neon Genesis Evangelion (I've never gotten the pronounciation for that right.. is it evanJelion, or evanGelion?? >_<!)

Cowboy Beebop (But of course)

Akira

Princess Mononoke

Record of Lodoss War (I've liked it.. figure others might like it.. *shrugs*)

Slayers (NOT the dub.. Get subbed, trust me..)

Sorcerer Hunters (..For some reason never "popular" perse'.. but I think it's a good anime.)

Great choices! I like Sorcerer Hunters too, but it's not one of my favorites. :) Evangelion....if you want to pronounce it the way the Japanese do, then it's EvanGelion. If you want to pronounce it the way Americans do, then it's EvanJelion. I prefer the Japanese way...just sounds cooler. :heh:

*nods* I prefer EvanGelion, too.. *needs to break himself of the habit of saying evanJelion, though*

Thanks for the info, Meryl. :D

I think names should always be pronounced like in the original version. If they're translated, well, you have to change the pronounciation, but if they're not translated, the original usually sounds better...
And the "Evangelion" part of the title has not been changed (as it happened for the "Shin Seiki" part replaced by "Neon Genesis").
Boring way to say that I think it must be pronounced as meryl said :right:
