What anime should I watch?

Title says it all.

[Poll #1121964]

Oh, and I tried watching the kdrama Lovers In Paris today, but the heroine's "my stupidity and irresponsibility make me cute and charming and it wrong of my boss to fire me for always being late and breaking things" personality completely alienated me and I have learned that if a modern kdrama alieantes me at the start, I should run because it'll only get worse for me.

The thing with Slayers is that Zel and Gourry are really the parts that keep you deeply interested. Lina and Amelia are very obnoxious without the boys there to soften their shrill edges. Plenty of people still hate Amelia (I don't and like her and Zel together). The boys are what make Slayers for me though.

Yes, Alex is the dark haired captain with the horribly tragic backstory, horribly tragic middle story and horribly tragic ending. He's got so much angst I'm not sure it can be contained in one character.

For the record, Ray and Van from Gun x Sword also have angst, only it's ANGRY angst (especially Ray). I do want Ray's babies though.

like Darcia...or Kougaiji...or Hakkai...or any Saiyuki character...or Yukimura...

You say angry angst and wanting to have his babies like those are bad things...

If it sells you on him, Ray goes nutty over the death of his woman (Van does too, just not AS nutty), much like Darcia. Ray also has a gun built into his sword to cover all bases and kinks.

Can you tell I've metaed on Ray?

Going nutty over the death(or kidnapping/severe injury of) of your woman is very popular in Japan.

I think I read your Ray post.
