My picks for the best Mangas and Animes

   Konichiwa! Chi Chi-chan here! These are all the wonderful animes and mangas that I think deserve to be read. I read a lot of mangas and watch TONS of anime so this site will change pretty often. And please be respectful for the animes and mangas i have seen (some of them are ones I watched a while ago and they are a bit odd so PLEASE, PLEASE respectful. Ariigato). Note: I have put these in the order of the time I read them, not on rating or anything other. But there is ratings so check them out!
 
Mangas
 
Bow Wow Wata      Rate: 3 Stars
My Comment: A cute manga about man and his best friend. Art is a little "begginer-ish" but story line is funny. Wish they had more than two books.
 
Mink                      Rate: 4 stars
My Comment: I loved this manga! Lots of secret magical girl things. Very interesting graphics and LOVE, LOVE, LOOOOVE the characters. The mystery gets better and better, and the romance is so good it practicaly kills.
 
Pita Ten                 Rate: 5 BIG, FAT, Stars
My Comment: Highly addicting and great story line. I'm a big fan of Koge Donbo and I am still in love with all the great work she did. Even though it is EXTREMELY sad, this manga will brighten up everyone's day (except if it's the last book). The characters, story line, and art is the best of Koge's. I highly recommend this to anyone (-su!)!!!!
 
Tokyo Mew Mew     Rate: 4 Stars
Mia Ikumi did a wonderful job on this romantic, magical girl manga. It makes you just want to really be in the shoes of Ichigo (because she is so dang lucky she gets to be a kitty cat! [plus Masaya is soo hot]) I recommend this and I also like the "A La Mode" volumes as well. The art is a little sloppy in the first few books, but the characters rock and so does the storyline.
 
Di Gi Charat           Rate: 3 Stars
My Comment: Another manga of Koge Donbo's. I must say that this book wasn't as good as Pita Ten. It might have been the first book she ever wrote (i think), but the character personality were a bit sloppy and confusing, and the storyline lacked a bit of interest. Great art, though. (luv the uniforms Koge!)
 
Yotsuba&! (Also known as Yotsubato!)           Rate: 3 Stars
My Comment: This manga had funny stories and a WICKED AWESOME (sugoi! sugoi!) toddler, but the art was simple. It had not a lot of detail when it came to the character and the manga-ka focused more on the background. Otherwise, it is a great manga.
 
Full Moon           Rate: 2 Stars
My Comment: I only read the first book and I found a bit lacking. There was good characters that were funny, but the storyline... I didn't understand at all. The art was intricate, but a little to detailed because it started to look sloppy.
 
Mirumo (French Version)           Rate: 5 BIG, SUPER FAT Stars
My Comment: I picked this up while on a visit in France and I fell inlove. I couldn't get my head out of it and I am still demanding the rest of the series from my family there. The story is hilarious and easy to follow. The art is fanominal (did I spell that right?) and the characters are very well put. Kaede is my role model (except for the nt being to smart part :D) and I wish I could meet her in real life. I am sorry for the people who desperatly need to read this manga because it has not been released in English, yet. But for people who are able to read it, pick it up at your local book store because it is HIGHLY SUGGESTED (I ties with Pita Ten)! I LUV YOU KOICHI SUMITA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Detective Conan (French Version)           Rate: 2 Stars
I haven't read much of this yet since I just received it. The storyline is interesting, but a bit complicated and it isn't really my taste (My cousin reads it and he sent it to me). It is a little creepy, too.
 
Fruits Basket           Rate: 4.5 Stars
My Comment: I adore this manga! No wonder it has been favored all over the world. The storyline is great and I am inlove with the characters (especially Yuki Sohma). I just have one thing to say: "IBI-CHAN!!!! YUKI-KUN IS CUTER THEN KYO-KUN!!!!" Hee hee.
 
Kitchen Princess           Rate: 5 BIG, SUPER FAT Stars
Mycomment: This manga was perfect with someone of my taste (hee hee). This manga is all about the wonders of the culinary world where a young girl is trying to find her "Flan Prince". I especially adored this cause of my passion of cooking and also reflects the evilness us girls can get to. Plus not to mention the KAWAII and hot boys. Will she ever find her "Flan Prince"?
 
 
Animes
 
Pokemon           Rate: 2 Stars
My Comment: This was my first anime I EVER SAW!!! Can you believe it. Lots of people are like, you never saw anything better? Anyway, I was really little when I first saw this and it was the first and second season that I watched until I stopped watching it. So far I have seen ALL of the movies, too. I think the first season is better then all the others.
 
Sailor Moon           Rate: 4 Stars
My Comment: Sailor Moon is the best thing that came to this planet since laptop computers! This was a great anime and I was an addict. It majorly sucks that they never aired it again after 2001. I miss it.
 
Cardcaptor Sakura           Rate: 4 Stars
My Comment: This is a great anime with lots of suspense, drama, and magical girl POWER!!!!! Sakura is my super cool hero! OH YEAH! I recommend you look for episodes of this.
 
Kiki's Delivery Service           Rate: 5 BIG, SUPER FAT STARS
My Comment: My first Myazaki movie. For two years I actually thought I was Kiki! It just swept me off my feet and took me away. I'll always love this. Myazaki has grown up with me as have I with him and his films. I highly recommend this movie!
 
Spirited Away           Rate: 5 BIG, SUPER FAT STARS
My Comment: What else can I say than.... THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE!!!!!! Myazaki is an expert and I am devoted and amjorly addicted to his work. Spirited Away inspired me and it is so breathtaking. The graphics and ways he pulled you into the new world of Myazaki. Great Work!
 
Castle in the Sky        Rate: 4.5 Stars
My Comment: This movie is so spellbinding! It will seriously take your breath away like *snap* that! The storyline is magical and suspenseful and you never know what will happen next. Myazaki you worked hard on this movie and you deserve an applause. *Large crowd applauses*. I recommend this movie to anyone who is up for a breathtaking 2 hours.
 
Pita Ten           Rate: 5 BIG, SUPER, DUPER FAT STARS
My Comment: This is just as good as the manga I have to say! This anime is funny, romantic, suspenseful, sad, and just dang great! This wins my pic for best anime but the last two episodes will break your heart (and fix it). GO AND WATCH IT RIGHT NOW!!!! YOU JUST HAVE!!!! HAVE TO!!!!!!! :D!
WARNING: LAST 2 EPISODES MAY CAUSE DEPRESSION AND "DOWN"-ESS AND WILL GIVE THE URGE TO BREAK DOWN AND CRY WHEN THE SONG "ALL THE THINGS SHE SAID" BE T.A.T.U. IS HEARD.
 
Pichi Pichi Pitch Mermaid Melody           Rate:  5 BIG, SUPER FAT STARS!
My Comment: This is not your typical "Magical Girl singing anime on a surfboard" (ahahahahaaa!!! *snif* I crack myself up), this is full on sweeeet! The characters are cute and pretty and have the greatest personalities and flare (not to mention some of them are soooo hot!). Hanon may go out of control for Tarou-chan, but otherwise romance is always in the air. The songs are great and I now have them on my iPod. I HIGHLY recommend this. WARNING: Please stay caution when Caren sings! It's terrible!
 
Mahou Sensei Negima           Rate: 5 Stars!
My Comment: This anime is hilarious!!!! The first time I saw it at my local Anime Mania Club (Konichiwa daremo!!) in English and adored it. It's probably one of the most hilarious anime I've ever seen (plus Negii is cute). This fantasy is filled with romance, action, comedy, more action, and lots of action-ey magic!
 
Selfish Fairy Mirumo de Pon            Rate: 5 BIG FAT STARS!
My Comment: Yes! First the manga and now the anime! Yippee!!!! I adore this anime so much because of how much it relates to the book. The characters are too cute (especially Murumo) and I like the funny adventures. All though I have both good and bad news. Good news: If you can't read the manga because you only can read English you can watch the anime with English subs. Bad news: No one has ever been able to upload past the 8th episode (doing!). It sucks, I know! Anyway if you get a chance watch this anime! You'll love it!!!!!
 
Fruits Basket           Rate: 5 BIG FAT STARS
My Comment: I adore this anime! Ariigato gozimas-su Ibi-chan for telling me to watch it! This is my current anime I'm watching and I adore everything about it! It's just like the book! The storyline is the best of any and the characters are someone you can always relate to... well.... kinda.... No wonder it has one the hearts of everyone all over the Earth. Plus the opening and ending songs are great to help you fall asleep! *grins*
 
Moon Phase           Rate: 4.5 Stars
My Comment: This cute but deadly anime is hilarious in practicly every seen. The hilarious Hazaki and the "spiriturally retarted"(LOL!!!!!!) Kohai battle it out till the end like siblings. But gusting fun. Can't wait till Ibi-chan gets the next DVD. IBI-CHAN HURRY UP!!!!!!!!
 
Ouran High School Host Club          Rate: 5 BIG, SUPER FAT STARS!
My Comment: Now this anime was truly something different. I never thought I'd ever seeanything like really. It has different turns and twists at every corner and the characters are so helpless you can't help but laugh. Who will Haruhi choose? You gotta find out by watching. Honey-sempai (upper classmen) YOU ARE SOOOO KAWAII!!!!!
 
Tsubasa Chronicle           Rate: 5 BIG, SUPER FAT STARS!
My Comment: One of the saddest but best animes ever, Tsubasa was recommended by no one else than my Anime Club and I completly recommend this. It's a complete off set of Card Captor Sakura where Sakura looses her memory and Saoyron (I always spell that wrong), along with some new characters (KUROGANE IS NOT HOT!!!!!!!!!!), must recover all her memories in different worlds. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone, but be warned, there is some emotional parts.
 
Kirarin Revolution          Rate: 5 BIG, FAT (glutenous) STARS!
My Comment: Even though this anime is hard to find and because it's new, Kirarin may one anime to wait on. Only available with subs for the first 3 episodes on Crunchyroll only this anime is hard to get. But it's worth it. This idol, comedy anime is all about Kirari, a glutenous girl who becomes a pop idol to get close the one she loves. The boys are H-O-T and Naa-san is soooo KAWAII!! Watch the first episodes on Crunchyroll, and the rest if you're willing to listen to babbling Japanese.
