And then I gave him seven popular suggestions that have all had good reviews. Then again, I'm trying to actually give suggestions, not reject them. Anyways, I just finished watching one of the suggestions, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. I liked it a lot. Animation was good, the story was nice, and it was an overall entertaining movie. I always thought Time Travel was a really cool concept, so I really, really enjoyed it. Starts off pretty slow, though, but man does it get amazing. I'd probably recommend Spirited Away or Howl's Moving Castle over it, just because I think they're more accessible films. But as a film, I'd say it's worth watching, even by yourself. |

I just asked a few friends if they had any ideas. After they laughed at me, I explained your situation. They said The Girl Who Leapt Through Time was really good. They also said Marimite was a good show, but I've never heard of it before. Fruits Basket is another one they recommended, but that show's so cute that it gives me an ulcer. Mushishi is another really good one that came out in America. I'd say it's good even as a movie (and not 'good for an anime.") I didn't see all of it, but I saw a good chunk and I really liked it. 4th rated anime ever, 1st if you take out all of the violent/sexual stuff ranked above it. |

Grisly...Not to sound tacky but try taking her to a flea market. They usually have a lot of cute anime stuff and just watch how she reacts to different items. Then go back and get something that she liked. Not only will she like what you got her but she'll notice that you remembered something she liked. Usually works for me. P.S. If you feel weird buying something cute for your girlfriend just go buy a bow and arrow or something else manly too. |

Whatever. If you want an anime that safe, buy Sailor Moon, wrap it in bubble wrap, and be done with it. Finding a good anime without sexual undertones is like finding a good hooker without STDs. Christ. Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Howl's Moving Castle. I hear The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is good, too. There. Four good movies. Squeaky clean. |

Actually, Princess Mononoke would be a fantastic movie if Miyamoto directed it MAMA MIA! ASHITAKA, YOU GOTTA DA DEMON CURSE! |

| Emu | Anything by Miyamoto. They're all well-animated and girls love them. Princess Mononoke is the only one I really like personally though :< | |

| pac-man | Go take her to see Speed Racer. I also like BlackHexen's idea... the trip to Japan part, not the murder part. | |

| Phoenix Gamma | I dunno. Lupin's pretty funny for such an old cartoon. | |
| Jun 1st, 2008 04:50 AM | ||
| BlackHexen | Kill that slut. She is just stupid. Liking Japan only because there comes few good cartoon-series. She deserves death. In Japan people hates nerds more than in west. Work is way too important to them. I know! Buy to her a trip to the Japan. When she see how shitty country it is, she gets normal and itäs more funnier to you to be with her. | |

| Tadao | Don't get Lupin. That is a horrible suggestion. | |
| May 31st, 2008 10:51 PM | ||
| Mr.Hoopla | Lupin III is always good. Mix bugs bunny and james bond and voila'! you got Lupin. | |

| Grislygus | If I wanted "forbidden love", I'd have gone for the chubby, illiterate trailer trap who worked at the Burger King across from the college. | |
| May 29th, 2008 07:20 PM | ||
| Tadao | Is this forbidden love? Is it the best? | |
| May 29th, 2008 07:15 PM | ||
| Grislygus |
I hope not. Normally people who are that into Japanese culture annoy the hell out of me, but for some reason it's just adorable that she is. I feel like a patronizing piece of shit

| executioneer | gristlygus why are you after sheltered xtian anime fans, are you jon clement now | |

| Dr. Boogie | Meh, FLCL is too stylized and wacky for me. Plus, I didn't really think it was that funny. | |
| May 29th, 2008 04:39 PM | ||
| Fathom Zero | I assumed any Anime fan worth their salt would love FLCL. She's not really a fan if she's the sheltered Christian girl. She better be hot, Grisly, or she's not worth the pursuit. | |

| Dr. Boogie |
You could try showing her Yotsuba&. That one's funny, and I believe it's fairly safe. His & Her Circumstances is another good romantic comedy-type show that shouldn't really have anything that will upset your girlfriend's delicate sensibilities. And also, your summation of FLCL is correct. Don't bother with it. |
|
| May 29th, 2008 03:49 PM | ||
| Tadao | Yes FLCL is that bad. Stop defending it so hard and face it. It isn't for everyone. I love FLCL but the sexual tones are too much for Gus's hussy. | |
| May 29th, 2008 03:43 PM | ||
| Phoenix Gamma | Well fuck, FLCL isn't that bad, but if you need something that safe, then Howl's Movie Castle and Princess Mononoke are fine and critically acclaimed. | |
