I have nothing against animes like Naruto, Inu Yasha, Bleach, etc... But I do think that there are animes that are so much better, but sadly over-looked.
My favorite anime is Escaflowne, and it is a rather well-known anime in terms of the classics, but it doesn't have nearly the fandom of others playing on Cartoon Network currently.
I'm not at all saying that these animes don't all have their own special rabid fan bases, because they do... They simply aren't as popular as some others that, in my opinion, are no better. ^__^
What underappreciated anime do you like? What are your favorite characters from them? Chat about these animes here, post pics if you want, and feel free to debate. But no flaming! Everyone is entitled to their opinions, so be nice! XD

  The first anime I really love is Juuni Kokki (12 Kingdoms). It's a great anime, but not many people know about it! It makes me sad crying The second is Utawarerumono. I never hear people talking about this one and it's just as good, if not better, than some of the more popular animes out right now. It's a shame to see such wonderful anime go unnoticed. gonk

I liked the usual anime such as DBZ, Rurouni Kenshin, and Yu Yu Hakusho until this show. I saw Gatekeepers 21 on Tech TV's Anime Unleashed and was hooked. Probably the main reason I love anime so much now and try to branch out from the Cartoon Network stuff.  This led me too Buying the original Gatekeepers dvd as well as the manga. The original Gatekeepers I love very much and think it's very underappreciated.  It's a shame animes like Naruto, inuyasha, and bleach get all the attention when there are better stuff out there.

Hey! Bleach and those other anime are awesome! Anyways if you dont like them you might like Ouran High School Host Club. It has no fighting, but I think its funny and sweet:] My favorite character from the show is Hikaru.

I'm currently in love with Spiral and Furuba, but I'm not sure how unknown they are.
Pretty sure that Furuba isn't really that unknown though. ^^;

Man I can go on and on and on on this topic lol. there are tons of series that are just awesome that you never see on regular TV. Like Skryed, Orphen, Samuri Deeper Kyo, Nadesco, Read or Die, Excel Saga, Lain, and the list goes on and on.

Those other ones you said are good too ^_^ They need a lot more airtime, I have seen one or two of those on, but it was only once and they really need to air them more because they rock! Never saw Nadesco though...

Never saw Nadesco though... ...Yes! R.O.D. (and R.O.D. the TV) is definitely my favorite anime! Another series I actually really liked was Popotan! Other than the Caramell Dancin video using its characters I don't think its known that well...but I'm not really sure. Oh! Also Zombie-Loan!

Anyone here like Karin? (In this country it's called 'Chibi Vampire', I think... But Karin is better... XD ) That's one of my favorites.
Oh, oh, and I will give a whole plate of cookies to someone if they've seen the anime El Hazard! I've never, ever met anyone who even knew what it was, sadly.
