those are ones that are english dubbed and you can actually catch them on adult swim from time to time.

Samurai champloo
Claymore

yea seems like most of them are high pitched lol

Gundam wing/seed/seed destiny/00
tenchi muyo/universe
bleach

There are some dubs that don't suck. First FMA the main voice actors doesn't suck, but story line makes no sense. The 2nd FMA has a good story line but the dub is terrible.

I just prefer it being in Japanese considering they don't talk robotic even if they're all high pitched screaming.

Cowboy Bebop watch that first

Eh, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Gintama, or Gungrave

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
however a warning ahead. after watching this one pretty much everything else seems more disappointing =/.

I suggest you start with something light like:
Naruto/Bleach/One Piece

then you can try stuff like: Full Metal Alchemist, Code Geass or Gurren Lagann .

I highly recommend Hajime no ippo,
Sumarai Champloo,
Hellsing,
Beck,
Basilisk,
Darker than black,
Initial D,
Cowboy Bepop.

Naruto, One Piece, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Ghost in the Shell, Gundam Wing/Seed, Cowboy Bebop, Death Note, Dragon Ball/DBZ/DB Evolution, and I hear Bleach is pretty good too. My faves are defs One Piece, Naruto, Death Note, and Neon Genesis. Neon Genesis is pretty funny, like the guy feels up all the chicks lmao.

Hajime no ippo plus the movies and the following season hajime no ippo new challenger
Kenichi
Bleach
Naruto

pretty much all the anime's i've watched in japanese

Oh and Rurouni Kenshin

all worth it

1. Full Metal Panic
2. Claymore
3. Ghost In the shell
4. Death Note
5. Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood
/Watch theese first/

From experience id suggest watching Naruto first (dont watch the fillers), it seems to be an easy one to start off with.

Naruto
One piece
FMA
Death note
Hellsing
Darker than Black
D Gray man
Soul Eater
Code Geass
Black Blood Brothers
Hakuouki
Hunter X Hunter

Samurai Champloo and Death Note would be a good start.

I guess you could watch them in English (Which I would prefer) but the Japanese versions are a lot more violent, and they swear, so meh. They should come with subs right ?

Kaze no Stigma
Code Geass
Avatar The Last Airbender
Bleach
Kekkaishi
Kenichi


I know I have more all times favorites but can't remember now.

Azumanga Daioh
for the lulz
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
for the wtf

This sentence does not make sense.

You suggest "short" series so you suggest two series with over 50 episodes. May as well suggest DBZ or Naruto.

OT:
Watch smaller animes, and try different genres of anime in order to find what it is you enjoy.
Try out:
Excel Saga (cuz this shit is basically every anime genre in a 26 [I think 27 with the unaired episode?] series.
Fate Stay Night
Toaru Majutsu no Index
Death Note
Samurai Champloo
Hellsing
Full Metal Panic

Series:
Death Note
Samurai Champloo
Mushi-shi
Cowboy Bebop
Code Geass
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Gurren Lagann
Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
FLCL

Movies:
Samurai X: Trust & Betrayal
Ghost in the Shell
Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence
Spirited Away
Princess Mononoke
Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone
Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance
Grave of the Fireflies
5 Centimeters per Second
Akira

If you like it cute and short:
Onegai Teacher
Onegai Twins
Fruits Basket
Love Hina

^They're so much fun

And for others: I'd suggest Shaman King, Card Captor Sakura, Digimon Season 1+2 and Bakugan, for the hell of it.

So much funnn~

Though, I prefer korean dramas over anime.
The Woman That Still Wants To Marry (woman of 34 is a news reporter and still unmarried, falls in love with a 24 year old. Her ex boyfriend(34) falls in love with the mother of her new boyfriend(44). He tries to seduce her, she pushes him away, and it's the same witht he ex and the mom)
Style (poor girl gets slaved as an assistant at a fashion magazine, works her ass off and gets the chance to become an editor right before the magazine is practically farked and falls in love with the new head editor, some chef from New York)
Coffee Prince (poor girl looks like a boy and gets hired in a men only employing coffee cafe, falls in love with the arrogant and rich owner and his cousin falls in love with her too)
Boys Over Flowers (poor girl lands into the richest school in Korea and turns the biggest ass in School into her boyfriend)

Death Note is all I've seen >.>
Everything else is like 502389720935702935 episodes long

Lol there is a lot of good short anime. You just need to look harder.

Gundam 00.

The only animes I've watched all the episodes of was the first FMA and Samurai Champloo. Watched Bleach until the Bount filler and got bored, watched some Naturo aswell.

I guess this Summer Vacation I'll get into another anime or maybe Bleach again.
