New anime ????????!
Question: This time i want to know if you people can reccomend me any "smart" anime. Something like Death note, Hikaru no Go, Hajime no ippo where alot of thinking is involved. Anime where the main character needs to think to overcome his opponent or logically examine why something is happening etc.
If not, reccomend me anime about music. Anyone else notice that its the anime with the most unusual genres that turn out to be the best? Full moon wo sagashite (about singing) is amazing. Yakitake Japan (about cooking) is amazing. Hajime no ippo (about boxing) is amazing. Hikaru no go (about a board game) is amazing. Prince of Tennis (about tennis) is also quite good.
So reccomend anime that you liked that have a strange, unique, unusual genre...

<> Slam Dunk::: 101 episodes <>
This is the fantastically popular sports anime that single-handedly restarted the genre! It follows tensai basketman Sakuragi Hanamichi as he takes up basketball to impress a cute girl, and never walks free again. He may not be as good as he thinks he is, but he might just be good enough to help Shohoku to the national level… but then again, the competition has talent of their own, and an equal need to win. Don’t expect Sakuragi, or indeed Shohoku, to win them all.
<> Whistle!::: 39 episodes <>
A good smart anime would be "Monster". It's my absolute favorite.
A VERY good music anime would be "La Corda d'Oro".
Gakuen Alice
Rurouni Kenshin

Princess Tu Tu --about ballet
Ghost in the Shell films and series both are erudite and intellectually stimulating , Serial Experiments Lain has an eerie atmosphere to it , and Magnetic Rose with music by Yoko Kanno (one of three anime shorts in Memories ) is sublime .
