alright as the title suggest this a list of animes to watch befor you die i got the idea while watching tv i was watching 101 movies to watch before you die something like that and then i thought no one has done this with anime shows then i got to thinking about doing something like that however i was unsure but then people asked me for animes to check out and that that kinda persuaded me to make a anime list.....

if their animes that i havent included say it and tell me why they should be included to the list...and ill add them to the list......

Epic animes you missed

Honey and Clover - a must-watch for sure... Best slice_of_life/romance! Ever.
Nana - also a definate must-watch. Music, love and tragedy. Very nice indeed!
Spice and Wolf - can't believe you're missing that... A very calm anime. Funny and cute Horo and wise Laurence... Or was it the other way around? =\
Neon Gennesis Evangellion + OVA(The end of) - dude, this ABSOLUTELY HAS to be on this list. If you hadn't watched it... You missed a lot =\ And the OVA!!!!!! MUST MUST MUST WATCH!!! EPIC ENDING DRIVES YOU INSANE!!! Yeah, like me.
Kara no Kyoukai - Jeez, it's the best f_cking thing ever... No... It is The best f_cking thing ever. Yes, like this. Very stylish and stunning...
5 cm per second - Absolutely the BEST and saddest romance you'll see. Actually, all the Makoto Sinkai's works are must-watch'es
Clannad (both seasons) - Rally funny at first and then... you burst into tears and cry your heart out... A must-watch!
Baccano - just for the soundtrack and the two main characters :D Very entertaining!!! Takes place in America, too, which makes it a change of the atmosphere from all the other animes.
Nodame Cantabile - classic music and romance... A dish best served with wine, cheese and ham and other french dishes. Very funny and calming.
BECK - Rock bands are easy? Hell no! Romance, drama and rock music here. Best served with chips and beer! (hey, that's a poem!)
ToraDora - One of the best romance/comedy animes out there. Epic experience.
GTO (Great Teacher Onizuka) - a classic. A must-watch. Definatly something everyone should take a look at (at least). PURE EPIC! There is nothing like it out there.
Welcome to the N.H.K. - A very nice anime about a hikkimori and his life. And how a person can be saved from that state. A comedy, too :amused
Higashi no Eden - A very strange anime I'd say, it's like about a japaneese James Bond... But with a twist. Definatly something to peek at!
xxxHolic despite it's name has nothing to do with sex. A very spiritual (literary) anime, definatly worth examining!

That's all for now... I'm too bored of writing all this.
a very good example of how you should do it thank you very much for the contribution Dtim
how ever if your not good at describing or explaining you could do this

Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood.
The remake of the first series which follows the manga, note, it is not a sequel

Soul Eater, Hilarious with alot of action too, Would only recommend the subbed as they did a bad job with the voices in dubbed.

Sorry, Scanned the list but must've missed it.

Love Hina and Azumanga Daioh, add them, they're awesome.

I edited the list, getting rid of the unnessascery trash. Either because it's not good enough, either because it's mainstream crap or just because it's unfinished, or the manga is better. Or, in case I hadn't heard of it or watched it at all. Sometimes a legend is obvious, like Akira, which I still hadn't seen. But I still heard a lot about it. Anyways...

Naruto, One Peace and Bleach and others like them not included SINCE NOT FINISHED OMFG - go to hell you fans.

3.Akira – a classic. Must-watch. (Can't get myself to watch it, I guess I'll do it after posting this)
8. Hellsing Ultimate OVA - F_ck the TV version, we want the OVAs
9. Death note - a chess game with people's lives on the stake. A classic I guess.
14. Code Geass - BOTH SEASONS - A very nice plot, great character developement, epic ending. A must-watch
15. Gurren Lagann - same thing as above. A very nice univerce, epic characters... Very entertaining and inspiring. Good music too.
22. soul eater - a very smooth animation. Manga is better for the plot though. Epic fail in the ending
23. Elfen Lied - a very sad story. Loved it. Although the ending is open and manga gives the full story, it's a must-watch.
25.full metal alchemist, Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood - well... The story of the Elric brothers is a very nice one. Watch it =)
26.full metal panic + Fumoffu - a very nice story indeed. Fumoffu is a kickass comedy too, a definate must-watch!
27. Cowboy bebop ,cowboy bebop movie - the blues, man... The music here is amazing. The story is epic. A MUST_WATCH_B4_U_DIE
35.Lucky Star - this one's is an otaku favourite :blink Konata is epic! If I were an anime character, I'd be her!!! =))
56.Fooly Cooly AKA Furi Kuri AKA FLCL - The craziest anime ever. Also, all the music in it is composed by "The Pillows" which gives a very stylish topping. Watched it over like 3 times last week!
57, Sunabouzu - One story where the protoganist is an ass. And stays so untill the very end and even after. A must-watch!!!
64.Higurashi no naku koro ni /+Rei /+Kai - best horror anime. Kawaii+Massacre! What could be better?!
65.Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei - A very good comedy... play. I can't describe it... Zetsubou da!!!

Epic animes you missed

Honey and Clover - a must-watch for sure... Best slice_of_life/romance! Ever.
Nana - also a definate must-watch. Music, love and tragedy. Very nice indeed!
Spice and Wolf - can't believe you're missing that... A very calm anime. Funny and cute Horo and wise Laurence... Or was it the other way around? =\
Neon Gennesis Evangellion + OVA(The end of) - dude, this ABSOLUTELY HAS to be on this list. If you hadn't watched it... You missed a lot =\ And the OVA!!!!!! MUST MUST MUST WATCH!!! EPIC ENDING DRIVES YOU INSANE!!! Yeah, like me.

5 cm per second - Absolutely the BEST and saddest romance you'll see. Actually, all the Makoto Sinkai's works are must-watch'es
Clannad (both seasons) - Rally funny at first and then... you burst into tears and cry your heart out... A must-watch!
Baccano - just for the soundtrack and the two main characters :D Very entertaining!!! Takes place in America, too, which makes it a change of the atmosphere from all the other animes.
Nodame Cantabile - classic music and romance... A dish best served with wine, cheese and ham and other french dishes. Very funny and calming.
BECK - Rock bands are easy? Hell no! Romance, drama and rock music here. Best served with chips and beer! (hey, that's a poem!)
ToraDora - One of the best romance/comedy animes out there. Epic experience.
GTO (Great Teacher Onizuka) - a classic. A must-watch. Definatly something everyone should take a look at (at least). PURE EPIC! There is nothing like it out there.
Welcome to the N.H.K. - A very nice anime about a hikkimori and his life. And how a person can be saved from that state. A comedy, too :amused
Higashi no Eden - A very strange anime I'd say, it's like about a japaneese James Bond... But with a twist. Definatly something to peek at!
xxxHolic despite it's name has nothing to do with sex. A very spiritual (literary) anime, definatly worth examining!

That's all for now... I'm too bored of writing all this.

These poem names are so original...

I value your opinion and all (heck, I even agree with virtually everything in that post) but Fist of the North Star ain't trash (you didn't state it specifically, but you removed it) It just has to be seen as 'comedic violence' to enjoy it (I remember one scene in the animated movie, where Kenshiro was lying down on a table. He got off the table, and walked away. The table exploded/disintegrated into nothingness a few seconds later)
Sure, it might be a bit of an accuired (sp?) taste, but so is Lucky Star and Zetsubou Sensei, imho. FotNS is also what most modern shounen are based on (before anyone says DBZ, this was before DBZ mofos)

@boba_fett_bounty: oh, okay. Dokuro-Chan should be there because it has killer lolis. Also, scenes like this.

Yeah, I edited my post after you read it (you were in the thread already). I also removed the things I haven't heard of or watched em.

DBZ... It's not something you should watch before you die, but you should at least have heard about it and what the stuff is :amused

And about Dokura-chan... Yeah, it's funny, but there are numerous things like it around :confused

ah, okay.
And, while my anime isn't exactly my forte (I'm more into manga) I thought Dokuro-Chan was somewhat unique. Yeah, there are killer lolis in anime, but not like Dokuro-Chan =/
