Anime/manga suggestions for a newbie?

[Dude]

Hiya,

I've just recently been getting into anime. I was wondering if you had any suggestions for me. I liked Death Note a lot, Fullmetal Alchemist and Paranoia Agent too, I'm currently almost done with Boogiepop Phantom which is also really good. I'm not too big on fantasy, and I like sci-fi but only when it's within reason. I really like mystery/psychological horror if you couldn't tell already lol.

I havent read any manga yet, I haven't really found any that looked interesting. (not that I've tried though) Could you have any suggestions there too?

Thanks

- Gundam Seed (Destiny)

Destiny comes after Gundam Seed and they're both in English. Which I take your probably are watching since your new but if not the site I put in the source should have both.

It's kind futuristic, it does have romance in it but not 'lovely - dovey ' type. Even though it does have some factor in the show. It's action and great!

- Code Geass

Great plot, interesting view on things, supernatural a bit and action.

Their is a second series to it as well.

I could probably recommend more anime but these are all I can think of based on what you like and also how they both are in English. You can always watch the original version with subs to if you want!

Two psychological thriller-type animes I really liked were Mirai Nikki and Steins;Gate. Just a note, it might take a few episodes for you to understand why Steins;Gate is a psychological thriller. Also, it's a romance comedy thing, but Bakuman's original manga was written and illustrated by the same people as Death Note.

Consider:
- Fate/Stay Night
- Neon Genesis Evangelion
- Chrono Crusade
- Serial Experiments Lain
- Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
- Elfen Lied
Note that these last two are quite graphic and only recommended for mature audiences. Also, I don't usually recommend SEL, but if you really like mindscrewy stuff I'll make an exception.
