Re: Whats your favourite Anime?

Last Exile pushed all my buttons with its premise alone. Of the handful animes that I watched, I love it the most. I liked the first Fullmetal Alchemist as well, but Brotherhood's pacing felt more like an "in previous episodes" retelling (which it was) than an actual story, to the point wh...
