Best Animes of the 2000s
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, often referred to as simply Code Geass, is a Japanese anime series created by Sunrise, directed by Gorō Taniguchi, and written by Ichirō Ōkouchi, with original character designs by manga authors Clamp. I love a good anti-hero, even being a mass murderer with a body-count that has got to be in the 100,000's, everything Lelouch does is for his little sister. Which is completely adorable, watching him coordinate war strategies is enough to keep me entertained. The character's and great along with the action, great series, although I did enjoy R2 a little more than the first season.
After the first few episodes of this anime you really get into there series and its hard to stop watching. I went through about 6 episodes in one day one time. The plot is great and it ALWAYS keeps you wanting more. I was so sad that it ended.
The ending of this anime of godly. I didn't think it was possible to create an ending so good that it makes you want there to be no sequels, just to preserve the ending
Easily one of the best anime ever.

Some amazing episodes, a lot of filler, one of my favorite character's of all time.
The most 2000s anime I've seen. Kinda reminds me of Danny Phantom and Fairly Odd parents
InuYasha is a manga franchise created by Rumiko Takahashi. It was adapted into two anime television series produced by Sunrise.

I just finished watching all 193 episodes again and it was such an emotional rollercoaster ride. It was also the first anime I ever watched and the first moment I ever saw Inuyasha on TV was unforgettable. And the emotions after so many years that can still hold when I rewatched it in 2020 are proof that Inuyasha is an anime that transcends time. A love story that forever remains a gem in our hearts, that follows us for the rest of our lives. Reading so many comments of people also growing up with Inuyasha is incredibly heartwarming and it makes me love the anime more than ever.
Inuyasha, another great series by Rumiko. A show with more of a dark tone than her previous series of Ranma, Maison Ikkoku, Lum. Rin-ne, her latest installment, is a real fun show.
Death Note is a Japanese television drama anime series based on the manga series of the same name by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata.
The show is centered around Light Yagami - a promising highschooler and aspiring detective with a strong sense of "justice". I know it is in just about everyone's top ten, but I can't think of mine without it. A battle of wits between two geniuses? Add in a question of morality and you've got me winner. Light's scheming and L's sheer awesomeness keeps the watcher riveted and thoroughly enthralled. Like I said it does raise a question, what would I do if the death had fallen into my hands?
Naruto is an anime and manga franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto. The manga was later adapted into a television anime, which was produced by Studio Pierrot and Aniplex.

It is the anime that started to watch even more anime! But I am really behind on it. I tagged along with the series really late. I am only on season three of Naruto Shippuden. Sorry if I spelt it wrong, hopefully I didn't trigger anyone. At first Naruto was pretty boring, because it had to explain some many things. But if you think about, it is a really good thing. It might be annoying at times. But when you get to season three or four it stops explaining things, and becomes more fast pace. But it still sometimes will explain things. But Naruto will still be my favorite anime.
Yay! I just love this anime, and all the characters! GREAT plot, and awesome art work! Also, the story really shows how the characters grow, and change' just like real people!
