I've been watching anime for over 25 years, and among these, here are the ones I have still not yet seen:

Patlabor, Space Runaway Ideon, Gunbuster (though that's coming up shortly!), Aim For The Ace!, Ashita no Joe, Revolutionary Girl Utena, Rose of Versailles, Gaogaigar, Getter Robo (though I'm interested and will likely see it soon), Mazinger Z, Devilman (any version), Cutey Honey (he misspelled it!), Astro Boy (I think he was going for The Mighty Atom?), Princess Tutu, Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water (he spelled it with a J...), Fruits Basket, Maison Ikkoku, Aria, Clannad, Legend of the Galactic Heroes

Of the shows listed, what I HAVE seen so far:

Cardcaptor Sakura, Baccano!, Big O, Code Geass

Not everyone has time for absolutely everything.

I can geek out for hours about how much I loved Heavy Object, though. Should have been a far, FAR bigger success than it was. At one point it actually tackles the military-industrial complex!

Stop right now, call in sick, whatever it takes, and go binge watch Legends of the Galactic Heroes. The old version.

We used to have it on disc, but before I could watch it, I had to sell it due to a financial crunch. That thing cost six hundred dollars!

But yes, noted.

My gut instinct says to hate piracy on principle. I always try to support the official release--you should see my collection.

However, I hate to say this, but I've already paid for this once...maybe you're right.

Devilman is way overrated anyway.

I spend way too much time watching Anime and have seen none of those.

Pick up Baccano. It's the best fragmented storytelling I've ever encountered and the characters are fun. Good music too. Besides, how many stories do you really encounter that are set in the 1930s?

I’ll have to put that on my list to check out. There are so many anime to watch that even when I retire I don’t think I’ll be able to watch them all.

Astro Boy was the English Language name for Tetsuwan Atom. I grew up with the 1980s (color) remake of the original 1963 version.

It is very much for children, and it was my introduction to Japanese Animation, and it was wonderful.

You are probably a bit old for it, but you really did miss out.

I can recommend Patlabor. It is an interesting character study which is full of human motivations and politics pretending to be a giant robot show.

The robots are cool, that just isn't the focus of the show.

I took an educated guess. I knew Tetsuwan Atom was the Japanese name, but since the guy searched for "atom," I couldn't think of what else it could be.

Him searching for "atom" also makes me think he's one of those idiots who still says "Shingeki no Kyojin" instead of Attack On Titan, or "Boku no Hero Academia" instead of My Hero Academia, when the English titles are RIGHT FUCKING THERE.

It drives me bananas. So many sites have the title in Japanese without translation. I get that they want to be specific, but I don't speak Japanese.

I can't remember a title I have to learn phonetically.

"Is it Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon" is memorable. "Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka" is not.
