One quick question for you people, how many episodes does it take for you to find out if you like an anime? I know it differs from anime to anime but if you could give me a some sort of guess that would be just as helpful.

Like the title says I'm looking for some anime that's absolutely brilliant. By this I mean one with an amazingly enticing plot, excellent action, and great characters.

Please don't recommend anything with mechas, I don't particularly enjoy giant robot fights. That's kinda what stopped me from watching Code Geass. I've also chckd out Elfen Lied (didn't like it) and Gurren Lagann (sp) but those weren't to my liking.

Some of my favorite anime:

One Piece...

Sooo.. gotta start applying for college and stuff. Applications r ez for the most part but I was hoping some smarter ppl could tell me how the heck I get my school to send transcripts to the colleges I want to go to. Also gonna do some college visits soon, what sorta stuff should I look for @ campus aside from what type of people, size of campus, location of stuff, and class sizes.

Ok one more important thing, I've got an essay topic which tells me to write about the most personally...

Does anyone know what manga chapters of Ouran Host Club were not made into anime episodes, same question for Ranma 1/2?

Also, if you've seen both anime and think it's best to just start from the very beginning of the mangas plz say so. THANKS!

(this question was also asked on Y! Answers by me in case u find that question and tell me to wait for an answer)

Tomorrow I test to get one of the most important pieces of plastic, a driver's license. I'm unbelievably nervous and was wondering if anyone's got any tips on either calming down or just passing the test.

Thanks peeps.
