I'm in the mood for anime but I have no idea what to watch. Any recommendations for a new anime fan? Preferably something with action.
Hmm... I will try to recommend series that you have probably not seen on TV.
Action AnimeFairy Tail - Pretty much One Piece, but with Wizards instead of Pirates.
Busou Renkin - Pretty much Bleach, but with different weapons.
Toriko - If One Piece and Dragon Ball Z had a baby, and that baby grew up to be a foodie.
Bakkano - Gangsters and/or Immortals fighting in the 20s.
Blood+ - Girl with sword fights monsters. She has special blood that can kill them.
Queen's Blade - The series that made Action + Ecchi a mainstream genre combination.
Kinda Action AnimeSlayers - A classic. A sorcerer and a swordsman have wacky adventures while saving the world. My first Anime, so I may be biased.
Record of Lodoss War - A classic. Based off of a DnD session that the creator played, I think.
Shadow Star Narutaru - Kind of like a modern day, less family friendly version of Pokémon. Pretty psychological.
Bokurano - Giant robots and depressing situations.
.hack - MMORPG the anime. The classic "anime set in a video game" series.
Log Horizon - Similar concept as Sword Art Online and .hack. People suddenly live in a video game.
Not really Action Anime, but still very goodDennou Coil - Google Glasses the anime, from before Google Glasses was a thing.
Higurashi no Naka Koro Ni - Friends act cute, have fun. One friend goes crazy and kills everyone. Repeat.
Kino's Journey - Kino journeys from land to land, observing cultures. Classy and philosophical.
Monster - Doctor saves a serial killer's life. Regrets it.
