Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.
I love the characters with the exception of 1. The story is amazing. The fights are awesome, and the villains are great.

who is that one character?

Yoki. Hate that bastard.

I kind of hated and liked him at the same time, but I can still see how anyone would hate him :)

Sora No Woto

I find that all the characters are interesting in the reason of why they are in the fort. Even if they are far the frontline you can easily see the effect of the war. Its the interesting constrast of the innocence of the girls and the war going in the background that made me love the anime. At the end of the serie the arc is, in a way, terrifiying since they are going the war and that is the last thing i wanted to see.

Noel FTW

Also the OST is beautiful.

For me, my favorite anime series has to be a tie between Darker Than Black and Evangelion. Darker Than Black is the more recent anime that I am simply enamored in because of the cool characters, awesome power system (Contractor Powers/Obseiance), and a great soundtrack. Plus my waifu Yin.

That said, NG: Evangelion, was the first anime I actually "watched" that wasn't airing on TV. When I was young I loved the series, because of the awesome mecha fights, and comedic relief parts in between the cool fights. When I went though it again about 10 years later, I loved it again for the awesome Mech VS Monster fights, but also for the psychological elements, the amazing characters, and plot. (Plus the fanservice) If it weren't for what felt like in my opinion lulls in the storyline as a result of the school life shit, and the ending which still leaves me very confused and a little Buttfrustrated, NG: Evangelion would be my favorite anime hands down.

Welcome to the NHK. Relatable, deep look into life, amazing OST, all that.

Mine's a tie between Fullmetal alchemist: brotherhood and tengen toppa gurren lagann.
Why because: amazing plot, very likeable characters, and cool abilities.
