MY ANIME (part one)

                              He is torn down to shreds it is impossible to win, he breathes hard, stands to guard his friends who are depending on him, fire raging from within "never give up on your dreams or your friends" he says rages on in battle. this can easily be translated to a scene in an anime.  this may sound cinematic the perseverance of the characters of the anime. Anime is often a misunderstood genre, it is sometimes referred to as "the cartoon with weird eyes" or even worse the "the really dirty Japanese cartoons" ( which is actually only a genre in anime). so, to clear some of the misconception here is my list of favorite anime regardless of the sub-genre! Bankai !!!!!!!
 ( in no particular order)

FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST:

   All your actions have consequences in your life and the lessons learned without pain never stay with us. These are the central ideals imbued in the anime. The Elric brother have alchemy in their blood (alchemy is an art of  transformation of elements) "Equivalent exchange" was the concept revered in alchemy i.e, to make something one sacrifice something of equal value. So, to bring back their dead mother the brothers go to extend of performing forbidden alchemy. In the process, Al the younger loses himself ; Ed the elder Elric loses an arm and a leg in bringing him back and sealing his body in an armor. Ed goes on to become the youngest state alchemist and the adventures of the Elric brothers stretch across the series. t talks about the philosopher's stone which has the power to defy the basic law of equivalent exchange in alchemy. The anime consists of questioning of beliefs and answers quite a lot. the series introduces us to unforgettable characters like Colonel Mustang and the embodiment of the sins. it has all the elements of chaos and humor, definitely can be called as an must for the anime freaks(otakus).
