Koihime Musou.
Just by looking at it and hearing the premise (anime based on eroge where the warriors in Romance of the Three Kingdoms are represented by moe animu girls, except the anime has even less plot) should tip me off that this anime is horrible, but has anyone seen it, and if so, has anyone liked it?

Being a dad to a young teen daughter I enjoyed "Whisper Of The Heart".
I liked Princess Monocle(sp?)/ Castle In The Sky/ the Cat Returns and Spirited Away.
I'd like to find stuff that is less about spirits or alternative religion. I want to watch a nice film withoutfeeling I'm being preached at.
I'm wanting to become an animator eventually so I purchase films to study their techniques, even if I don't care for the story. I love Miyazaki's work. I want to work backgrounds/cityscapes.
What do you recommend?
I like your avatar Magnafanatic and wonder what character she is/ what films?
I am VERY NEW to this genre and so I apologize I don't even know how to frame my questions!

Maokun: Ninjas or Pirates? (Vikings are not a valid answer, sorry)
EricTheFred: Vikings are always a valid answer.

Howl's moving castle, Porco Rosso, Girl who leapt through time, Castle in the sky, Spirited away, most Miyazaki movies. Though I wish they would release Tales from Earthsea in the USA and Ponyo comes out soon so I may see it when it comes out. Well, I hope that helps. I prefer more modern movies that is those that were made recently not 1990's or younger unless it's really good. It's just the styling that I don't like that's all. Hope that helps. Those aren't all the ones I own just a few. By the way, don't mention the Naruto movies, I saw the first one and I liked it so I'm sure the others will be good too(regardless of what others say I like the series).

i really liked Tsubasa RESERVoire CHRoNiCle...
here's the catch: no nudity, no sexual situations, no launguage more extream than somebody calling someone else a jerk. period. i'd prefer to avoid most romace too...
i don't mind vilolence and a reasonable amount of blood is ok...
does the series i'm looking for even exist?

Thanks!

I'm an absolute greenhorn concerning anime and don't know much about diverse series. Could anybody give me just 1 or 2 sentences about air and school rumble? Is there some "bad religion" in them? I didn't find the reviews about them here at caa. It would assist me greatly.

"The Girl Who Leapt Through Time"
A very fun and surprisingly moving tale of a girl who literally leaps through time. If I had a teen daughter I'd totally watch this one with her, actually I plan on showing to my little sis.
Wow! Thanks for the quick answer! I think, I will try school rumble out. Hmmm....ok, and do you have perhaps some tips for me concerning what anime I should have a look at?

EricTheFred (post: 1309419) wrote:"Slice-of-life" is a writer's term. It means anything that is driven by day-to-day life rather than a plot goal. In adventure, romance, mystery, etc. there's a goal and the story is about reaching it. In "slice-of-life" there's no goal beyond the normal life-goals of the characters. Generally you only use the term as a genre if no other genre really applies (i.e., if it isn't science fiction, fantasy, historic drama, comedy, etc.) but you can still use it to describe the nature of the story, which is what Mao-kun was doing (Hanbane Renmei is fantasy, but it's a fair description of the story. Most fantasies are quest-driven.)
Many American TV dramas fall into this category.

Thanks a bazillion!
