Maybe it's elitist of me, but I tend to shy away from hugely popular animes.
My favourite anime to date has to be Mononoke, gorgeous art and some of the most disconcerting stories I've ever seen.
Good manga include:
Monster: Brain surgeon goes vigilante after saving a sociopath. Communism, arsony, crossdressing. JOHAAANNNNN.
Tomie: The girl never dies. Disgusting, horrific. Misogynistic kind of. So awful it's good.

Kekkaishi is a really great anime to watch. I've been able to watch official dvds for it and it pales in comparison to the online fansubbing community. So if you're going to look into it, look for the online fansubbing video's, the quality of the video and subbing is fantastic!

actually, there's one that i forgot to mention. its an anime movie. but it is my all time fav movie. of any kind.
GRAVE OF THE FIREFLIES. its about WWII and how a brother and a sister tried to survive after the atomic bombs. DEFINITELY a tear-jerker. i cry everytime i watch it....pretty educational too.

I like that our anime club is also just a social group also, and anyone can join and be our friends!  our anime club is looked down upon by most of the school, they don't announce meetings on anouncements cuz people make fun of it and during the meetings they yell stuff as they pass by.

Although, I do admit that some anime fans can get pretty crazy...i mean, if they decide to cosplay or something on a normal school day then yeah i can see why ppl make fun of them? haha the ppl in ur anime club must truly be erm, individuals, to not care and join regardless.

Man, I remember that movie. I hit emotional climax pretty early though-- when Setsuko begins crying because they sold their mother's kimono, I cried and couldn't stop. Everything afterward left me feeling...not sad exactly, but indignant. If it weren't for the brother's pride, they wouldn't have moved out of the aunt's house, and Setsuko wouldn't have died. Everything was so pointless, really. That's the saddest part. I remember Miyazaki saying he was surprised that people sympathized with the boy, too. Baw.

I love Fruits Basket but what about Hana Yori Dango? I love the live action series, Domyoji is perfectly psychotic.

I really like gundam seed. Kinda like a soap opera but amazingly addictive! Full metal alchemist is also fairly good. Also enjoy:
Death Note
Full Metal Panic
DN angel
Personally, I read more manga than I watch anime. My favorites include:
Hana Kimi
Girl Got Game
Friuts Basket
Cresent Moon
Dragon Voice
Skip Beat
There are tons of others too, but I would recommend any of the above to those interested in reading manga.

If you enjoy animes that make you think there's one called "Laine", very confusing, but I'm addicted to it. The art's unique and the storyline is very complex, I'm actually probably going to end up dressing up as Laine for Anime North.
Favorite Anime:
Laine and the original Japanese Sailor Moon (The dub murdered it. They messed up)
Favorite Mangas: Vampire Night, Tsubasa, and After School Nightmare

It's Serial Experiments Lain btw. Unless Laine is a totally different anime. o_O Woo. Fave ones right now are pretty much the big ones that keep going on: Naruto, Bleach, D.Gray-Man Oh and Clannad is pretty good too... I love most animes released by Kyoto Animation... beautiful art and glorious plot all together.

Just a few months ago I watched the whole first season over again. Brought back so many memories Then I saw the first 2 episodes of season2 and realized why I stopped watching. I had some awesome Digimon cards. ohhh man. digimon and pokemon. goooood times...xD actually, for our "retro-month" in feb. we showed only the old classics to the club, we even sang the "poke-rap" together!!! Ofcourse, this is after watching some SAILOR MOON! *all girls school = no guys in the club* Pokemon still counts! Digimon -just the first season was good. Anyways, my favorite manga/anime series are -Gundam Seed -Death Note -.Hack -Witchhunter Robin -FMA -Samurai 7 -Final Destiny -Naruto -Bleach Movies: -Metropolis

For the crazy Animes go to Evangelion or Rahxephon, they're pretty out there.
