Goddamnit Clones.

Well that was quick.
Anyway Earthbound, yeah, this thread has good taste overall.
I saw your list, you have some good to okay ones already done.
But oh my god do you have an abundance of AMAZING anime to watch.
PMMM is pretty much on your 'best ever' list so you have that one down.
But sh*t.
Dude.
If you stick around you'll get some of the best stuff you'll ever see.
Here's a random outta da blue recommendation that you can't go wrong with.
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.
I think you're bound to like/love it regardless of your preferences and one of the greats.
And here's a warning.
Never go near the One Piece anime. If you're going to tackle the awesome beast that is One Piece (which is very very good btw.)
Go for the manga.
Noted! I've been wanting to buff up the size of that list, and if the quality goes up with it... even better.
So when is anybody going to pick up 20th Century Boys with its Vagabond reference?

Yes.

Oh that list is a veritable hydra.
Once you've watched one another three pop up.

FMAB is amazing so it's absolutely a show I would strongly recommend to watch sooner rather than later to see just what anime can offer. It got so many things!
Spoiler
Cute.......

I will say that my manga game is a bit off though. I think I've only ever read two series, Monster Musume, which was at Grav's behest, and a work in progress, Franken Fran. I can't for the life of me remember how I got introduced to that one, but its one messed up series. And I love it.

Oh Franken Fran is just amaaaaaaaaaaaazing. Geth introduced it to me last summer or so I believe.

That's three recommendations for that one now. So somewhere near the top for it too.

Liked for both of those manga! Question though, how are you on the anime?
F*ck it, here's some of the best stuff you can watch.
List these things, Earthbound.
Serious/Shounen/Seinen
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (you watch this dubbed)
Black Lagoon + Roberta's Blood Trial (this one too)
Shin Sekai Yori
Legend of the Galactic Heroes (a war drama heavy on politics, this one's my favourite.)
Monster (Silence of the Lambs meets anime basically. Again, an amazing dub.)
Cowboy Bebop (basically stuff you watch dubbed... again.)
Samurai Champloo (again... dubbed.)
Welcome to the NHK (dub's amazing here.)
Fate/Zero + Fate/Stay Night UBW 2014 (they work better if you watch it in that order.)
HunterxHunter 2011 (one of the best shounen out there.)
Psycho Pass
Musishi + its sequels.
Comedy/Shounen/Romance
Jojo's Bizzare Adventure 2012 to 2014 (you WON'T regret this.)
Ouran Highschool Hostclub (light hearted romance and harem done right. Again the dub is great.)
Gintama
Spice and Wolf (another amazing dub. Despite it looking like Otaku fetish trash it's the complete opposite.)
Chuu2 and its Season 2
Tiger and Bunny
Kaiba
Movies
Anything by Studio Ghibli
Jin Roh (a pretty dark and serious one.)
I'm not that fond of movies so that's all I know aside from the obvious Rebellion.
I put so much focus on 'good dubs' because of how hard they are to find.
Now if you're interested in comics (manga) now do I have a list for you xD

FMAB is amazing so it's absolutely a show I would strongly recommend to watch sooner rather than later to see just what anime can offer. It got so many things!
This this and more of this.
Oh Franken Fran is just amaaaaaaaaaaaazing. Geth introduced it to me last summer or so I believe.
Franken Fran is that awesome mixture of bizzare and unsettling.
That's three recommendations for that one now. So somewhere near the top for it too.
I'd say put FMAB as soon as possible to your list.
It's a must watch for any anime dude.
Just drowning Earthbound in recommendations XD Going to scare him off.
FMA:B is a good one because it can be enjoyed and appreciated even by people who don't typically watch anime
@Sim
I could be wrong but I'm not convinced Berserk is his thing as amazing as it is.
Haha I'm just impressing him with the art.
But okay, if it's not his thing then that's cool.
Got a ton of manga under my belt.
Not on Geth's level.
But not even the comic book guy in the Simpsons is at Geth's level.
Oh Franken Fran is just amaaaaaaaaaaaazing. Geth introduced it to me last summer or so I believe.
They had me sold at that freakin' second issue... So damn weird! But so good!
Liked for both of those manga! Question though, how are you on the anime?
Not at all actually. I'm back at home right now with abysmal internet, and the original plan was to save my streaming till I get back to uni in September. But all these recommendations are going to have to move things forward a bit, methinks. So I have that to get around to also.
That said if Berserk ain't your thing maybe LOTGH won't?
Ugh.
I'm bad at judging people's tastes.

To the list it goes! I didn't mention movies in my original list actually... I've seen all the Ghiblis bar their last two, I think... and the girl who leapt through time also. Enjoyed that one.

@Sim
I could be wrong but I'm not convinced Berserk is his thing as amazing as it is.
10,000 leagues under the sea would be more like it...
My non-anime flatmate's gonna kill me come September.
And heh, even I'm not entirely sure what stuff I'm after, so I'll willingly give most stuff a go.
I think Sim's infamous for his LotGH and Berserk endorsements even out of the anime thread. With enthusiasm like that, its hard not to be convinced.
Who knows? Maybe I'll give it a go... just as soon as I'm out of crush depth from the recommendations I've got.
That said if Berserk ain't your thing maybe LOTGH won't?
Ugh.
I'm bad at judging people's tastes.
Its all right. I'm bad at judging my own.
Cute.......
Yes it is.
@Earthbound
The main reason I wonder about Berserk for you is it deals with a lot of dark themes. You got tons of murder, rape, death and destruction, eldrich horrors, psychological horrors and so on and so forth. If you're ok with that stuff then it's a great story. But if you get easily squeemish on disturbing media it's best to avoid Berserk because it has some seriously effed up moments.
Still, amazing series. One of my favorites for sure.

Hmmm. Franken Fran has most of those things, though perhaps not to the same extent... It couldn't hurt to give it a look at least, somewhere down the line.

From what I've seen Franken Fran does have a lot of that similar kind of messed up. Though Berserk does tend to take it a bit more seriously I think. There's a fair bit of rape in it which is probably the worst of it imo.
Again, it does have an amazing story though if you do get into it. Based fantasy series IMO.
