  1. Rurouni Kenshin - it's not really heavy on the romance, but there is a lot of great interaction between Kenshin Himura and Kamiya Kaoru; the show is 3 seasons long, and as the show develops there's more romance between Kaoru and Kenshin.  The actions scenes are great and the plot is quite deep.


  2. I love samurai x. One of the best animes in terms of action and fighting.

    More fighting less romance (in no order of preference)

    D Grayman

    Slayers (Slayers first, Slayers next, Slayers try, Slayers revolution)

    - less well known but an excellent series with original storyline starring Lina Inverse.

    Code Geass (Code Geass is an excellent series)

    It does have machines and battles but it is just background like what someone else had said before. Machines and stuff isn't that much.

    It is more of genius vs genius. That's where most people hang out these days judging from the neverending blogs and comments of this show. :P It is a series whereby u never know what will happen next. Its fun because no one really seems to be right in guessing what happens next. :P

    X/1999 - very violent series (more fighting, not much romance)

    More romance less fighting:

    Magic Knight Rayearth

    Cardcaptor Sakura

    Slayers Anime Series (Summary)

    "Everyone's favourite short-tempered sorceress and stone-headed swordsman are back, with more action, more comedy, more fireballs and more food! When she gets caught up in a dispute between Seyruun and the aggressive nation of Xoana, Lina Inverse and Gourry Gabriev meet up with a few old friends--namely young justice-worshipping princess Amelia and stone-skinned chimera Zelgadis. After "settling" the problem with Xoana, the foursome go off on another journey in search of the legendary Claire Bible, partly to help Zel regain his humanity, partly because Lina wants a gander at it! As they travel, spreading mayhem and destruction across the countryside, a third reason comes up--to find some protection from the Monsters whose schemes they find themselves caught up in. As soon as they are answered, new questions arise: Who is this mysterious roguish priest Xellos and what is he really after? Is there a safe place from the intrigues of the great Monster lords? Will this stupid Xoanan princess ever leave Lina in peace? Could Gourry really be that dense? What's for lunch? Things aren't going to work out peacefully so what can our heroes do? "Darkness beyond twilight, crimson beyond blood that flows..." RUN!"


  3. well if your looking for romance with some love then i would try...

    Ouran High school (not so much action though)

    sailor moon

    Lupin the 3rd (perverted romance)

    Code Geass (a lil romance)

    strawberry panic

    Code Lyoko (a shitload of romance)

    Princess Tutu (a lil girly)

    S.O.S brigade

    Higurashi no Naku Koro ni(a lil bloody)

  9. * Elfen Lied(mature show)- this is a really deep show that can make you cry. its very good. its about a girl who was born with a syndrome that gives her killer powers, and she escapes from a lab, killing all officers in her way. after being hit in the head she developed another personalty that has none of her memorys and she starts living in a strangers house(who she later became friends with). 13 ep action/alot of blood/nudity/some romance.

    *.Fushigi Yuugi- about a girl who gets traped in a book and falls in love with one of the characters. it is full of drama. the girl becomes the pristess of sazaku and she must find the 7 warriors of sazaku and summon sazaku to bring peace to the empire and go back home. action/romance/adventure/comedy..

    *.Sailor Moon-about a group of teen girls fighting for love and justice. very cute but is deep in drama(mostly in the later on eps.)200ep. action/romance/comedy the japanease verison is way better then dub.

    http://www.veoh.com/channels/Erementar-G...

    *Princess Tutu- this is a anime that is like an ballet. So there is a lot of dancing in it. It might seem really weird in the beginning but the story is really good. Its about a duck that can transform into a human girl. In order to transform she must accept the duty of being Princess Tutu. The duck has to find all the pieces of the prince’s heart to save him. This is a very cute anime. 26ep (the action is mostly dancing) give this anime a try.

    Dub(the other ep are to the right and in “videos by KissMeU…”

    http://www.veoh.com/videos/v7167304NcaDN...

    *Pretear- its about a hyper girl who’s father just remarried. She one day bumped into a guy who’s friends (leafa warriors)say that they need her to save to world from the princess of darkness, by letting the guys go inside her(hard to explain). As the leafa warriors train her to become a better pretear, she finds out all the secrets and important details the didnt to tell her. 13ep

    dub episodes are with the princess tutu videos. But episodes 11-13 are subbed. Just search them through veoh. You’ll find them.

    *Vampire Knight-this is a hard anime to summarize without giving away spoilers. All I can say is that its about vampires and humans going to the same school. This is one of the best animes I’ve seen. So far there is 13eps.

  10. Well you're in luck I'm an otaku.  Sadly I am more of an otaku when it comes to manga (I have read 130+ manga series but only seen 60 anime series).  I stopped watching anime a while ago... plus I don't really watch action animes (I'm more into magical girl/high school romance).

    I got to a point where I felt like I couldn't find anymore good animes so I started reading manga.

    Yu Yu Hakusho

    Zero no Tsukaima

    Well here is my list of ratings/animes. The ones with the most *'s are the best. I put them in order from the least amount of *’s to the most.

    ***Tokyo Mew Mew***

    This series is about a girl who has her DNA infused with a cat. This anime is about her love, her friends, and how she has to protect Earth.

    There are 52 episodes.

    ***Onegai Twins***

    This anime is about two girls and a guy. The two girls want to know who their parents are and the only clue they have is a picture of this house that the boy owns. This story is about the events they go through to find out who they are and how they fall in love.

    There are 12 episodes.

    ***La Corda D’oro***

    This anime is about a girl who gets a magic violin. There are about five guys who like her and the anime is all about her (and the guys) playing their instruments at this contest. I was a little disappointed because no one ever really confessed their love and nothing actually romantic happened (like kissing).

    There are 26 episodes.

    ***Zero no Tsukaima***

    This anime is set in a world of magic.  Each magician calls a pet to themself.  These pets are called familiars.  Louise, the main girl, calls her pet and it turns out to be a human boy.  This anime is about their adventures trying to get him home and how they fall in love.  There are 3 seasons.

    There are 13 episodes.

    ***Ultra Maniac***

    This is about a girl who uses magic and her good friend. It is about the girl trying to win this competition to be the wife of this magic prince. The girl is really in love with this boy from her school. It is also about her best friend being in love with this other guy.

    There are 26 episodes.

    *** Crescent Love***

    This anime is about a princess from the moon going to Earth to help make peace.  The story revolves around her falling in love with a boy from Earth, and their struggle to make peace and be together.

    There are 12 episodes.

    *** Elemental Gelade***

    A boy who works on a flying ship meets a girl who can turn into a weapon.  They encounter many enemies who want to use her, and they fall in love.  They make new friends on their journey to a place called Edel Garden.

    There are 26 episodes.

    *** Romeo and Juliet***

    This anime of course is the story of Romeo and Juliet told a little differently.  Romeo’s father rules Neo Verona which is like a floating island in the sky.  Juliet was like a masked hero who stood up for the good, but she eventually had to give that up.  Juliet wears a wig to hide her long hair.  She has to pretend to be a boy because people would find out who she is if she didn’t.  Her parents were killed by Romeo’s deranged father.  There love is very sweet throughout the anime.  Sadly I have not seen the ending – I can’t wait.  It might be a sad one though….I hope not

    There are 24 episodes.

    ***Da Capo***

    This is about a girl who is adopted into this family and she is in love with her brother.

    There are 2 seasons with 26 episodes in each one.

    ***Kamisama Kazoku***

    This anime is about god’s son named Samatarou. There is a girl who is an angel that is always with him and she loves him but he likes a new popular girl at school. Samatarou’s mother is Venus and his sisters are both goddess candidates.

    There are 13 episodes.

    ***Kamikaze Kaito Jeanne***

    This one is about a high school girl who is a thief that steals art usually because it is made/possessed by a spirit of the devil aka demon. It is about how she meets another thief and falls in love with him.

    There are 44 episodes.

    ***DN Angel***

    This is about a boy who has a famous thief named Dark who is basically appart of him. Whenever the boy looks into a picture of a certain girl he transforms into Dark. Dark steals art work to seal away evil things inside it. This anime is also about the main boy being in love with this girl.

    There are 26 episodes.

    ***Nodame Cantabile***

    This story is about two college students who play the piano and live next door. It is very funny (especially the girl) and there is some romance (not much).

    There are 23 episodes.

    ***Gakuen Alice***

    This is an anime that is about a girl and her best friend at first. This girl named Mikan finds out her best friend is leaving school. Basically, Mikan follows her friend by going to her new school. This school takes in children with special abilities which they call Alices. Only children with Alices can attend, but the school allows Mikan to attend. This anime is about Mikan and her adventures once she enters the school. This anime reminded me a lot of Kodocha (kids who are in love). Nothing romantic actually happens (no kissing, but in the manga they do kiss). If you watch all this anime and you want to know more, I would recommend reading the manga (which is ongoing).

    There are 26 episodes.

    ****Peach Girl****

    This is a series I really liked. It is about a love triangle mainly between the main girl and two guys. The main girl named Momo has tan skin and bleached hair because she used to swim a lot. Since she has these features, people think she is promiscuous. One guy plays baseball and the Momo has liked him since junior high. The other guy was saved from drowning by Momo. Her best friend (not) named Sae is evil. Sae tries to mess up everything Momo has (especially her relationships).

    There are 25 episodes.

    ****Hana Yori Dango****

    The story revolves around Tsukushi Makino who is a poor girl going to a rich school because her parents want her to marry a rich boy. She wants time to fly by because everyone at the school is snobbish. She likes to stand up against people who do bad things, but she has stayed quiet most of the year. She encounters the F4, a group of rich boys who basically own the school. She stands up to them and they "declare war" on her by putting a red tag in her locker. She is in love with one of the boys in the F4. The leader of the F4 falls in love with her while she loves the other guy in the F4. The anime is about her struggles, relationships, and events that happened to the guys in the F4. Eventually she figures out her true feelings, even though it takes her a while. She changes two of the guys in the F4 into better people. I love this anime. It is a comedy, drama, romance, and slice of life.

    There are 51 episodes.

    *****Marmalade Boy*****

    This anime is about a boy and girl whose parents switch (her dad marries his mom while his mom marries her dad). All of them start living under the same roof. This anime is all about how the boy and girl fall in love (there are also many love triangles that try to separate them).

    There are 76 episodes.

    *****Kodocha*****(I like this one a lot but it is about two kids)

    This anime is about a energetic girl who is a famous child actress. It is about how she stands up to this boy in her class, helps him fix some issues he has, and how she falls in love with him. Her mother is very funny. This was one of the first anime I saw and it is one of my favorites.

    There are 102 episodes.

    *****Fushigi Yugi*****

    This anime is about a girl named Miaka who opens a book with her friend and they are teleported into the book. Miaka falls in love with a boy in the book and the story is all about her trying to summon Suzaku so she can make three wishes. To summon Suzaku she must find all seven celestial warriors. Her friend Yui eventually leaves then comes back to the world in the book and she develops a hatred for Miaka. This series is very romantic.

    There are 52 episodes.
