i'm somewhat interested in the anime mad stuff but i cannot decide what to start watching. If an anime like the one i'm about to describe exists please tell me what it's called and where i can purchase the entire series on dvd.

-extremly well drawn
-non robotic, i've always hated that kinda crap the giant mechs and things are really -blam!-
-cool characters, the kind you can buy a wall scroll of and proudly display it in your room
-preferrably something with swords and awesome ninja moves of the coolest calibur
-something serious (no retarded comic relief) and with a good plot, but if it doesn't have a good plot it can make up for that in awesome ninja moves.
-blood but not so gorey that it's hilarious (the kill bill sequences)
-hot female characters (optional)

ya that about covers it. my expierience with anime is really limited so please don't be afraid to suggest even the most mainstream animes.

Revolutionary Girl Utena has some pretty cool sword sequences, and is VERY well drawn. Check out the movie. It's a little hard to understand though, a couple times watching it you'll get it though.

Hmm, no robots, not much comic releif, and cool ninjas. Watch the Samurai X movies. Those have beautiful animation, virtually no comedy, no technology, and some extremely awesome fighting (no ninjas, but samurais are the next best thing.) And if a wallscroll of Kenshin looking serious isn't cool, i don't know what is. (Samurai X also has a lot of blood in it too.)

Samurai X rules. It seems to be what you want.

I reccomend Princess Mononoke on dvd. It takes place during the time of gods and demons(whenever the hell that was). The gods are manifested as giant beast, Like huge ass boars and wolfs. The animation is excellent and has a great story. I love it how he decapitated that samarui with an arrow. SWEET!! Good amount of blood, plenty of crazy stuff all over, Not any technology cept guns, wich were old fashiond black powder flint locks. Great movie one of my favorates. The movie Akira is also quite good, But got technology in it, like crazy ass motorcycles and other crap (no gundams), but is still quite good. Idk if you wanted to get dvds, but those are some great ones.

Uh, Ghost In the Shell Stand Alone Complex pretty much has everything you asked for... The movie is good too but I think it's a bit overrated. Unless you have access to fansubs, though, you're going to have to wait until later in the year to get the SAC DVDs.

FLCL is awesome, but it has robots and this guy asked for anime without robots and stuff. Though this thread seems to have turned into a "Post Your Favorite Anime" thread.
