    My lil sis has been watching One Piece but I just can't get into it either - to each his own I guess. And yeah, I do kinda wanna see Kurosawa's stuff too but might have to do that later on...heh, reminds me of how my mom and I used to watch The Magnificent Seven...still dunno why they took that show off the air, I thought it was good. Now I know where it came from tho.

    You might like GetBackers, esp if you liked s-Cry-ed, though I haven't seen it all so I can't vouch for it completely. Might as well throw in Inuyasha for fun. Neither is as extravagent as some of these other suggestions, but popularity is often a good sign. If you can stand the girls My Hime is good , and definately Ghost in the Shell

    As to One Piece, whatever they did to it for the dub I can't imagine how this show is so popular with so many in subbed form, how much could they change a good show and make it as look as bad as the One Piece dub looks and still have something to show? The dub tends to hold my interest when I see it, but it also sucks and makes me wish anything else I'd willingly watch were on.

    Well in defence of one piece I'll name a few of the changes done for the dub. Please note the dub is a horrible piece of garbage that is beyond redemption while post Buggy the Dub is a very good series.

    1:First ALL of the voices are just plain terrible in the dub to the1 point of wanting to rip your ears off.
    2:Changing the Marines guns to super soakers and popguns and calling them the Navy.
    3: Renaming Zoro to Zolo and Luffy D Monkey to Loofy D Monkey.
    4: Changing sanji's cigarette into a lollypop and Smoker having his cigars removed entirely while they leave the smoke and nake him Chaser.
    5: removing all of the blood and destroying basically every fight scene as a result.

    The series is definatly odd but its about as much a kids show as Hunter X Hunter and despite how they look in general they are very adult.

    If you watch Getbackers abort viewing at 26 while the show is still good and do not finish it.

    Also try out Fate/Stay Night you would almost definatly enjoy it and its still running.
