Also: WHats a good comedy anime to start ?

already seen chobits, aumanga daioh, and a good portion of harihi susmiya- so I may want to hold off on that one, cause I have seen most of it..

I was thinking about Ranma 1/2... any suggestions?

I second Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and Excel Saga, and 2 thumbs down for Pani Poni Dash

Also, I recommend School Rumble and Minami-ke, and possibly Gintama.

As for Ranma 1/2, that's what got me into Manga and Anime, and it is absolutely very good. I hope you consider reading the Manga also, because that is just as good, but even more story.

Only problem, 7 seasons may seem daunting, but it's enjoyable all the time.

It really all depends on what type of humor you're looking for. For random humor, you should go for excel saga and maybe love Hina. If you want lot's of parodies and japanese culture humor, go for Lucky Star or something along those lines.

If we're thinking of the same clip, then it was School Rumble. Also I recommend Lucky Star, Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, and ??h....already been mentioned.

The one I'm thinking of was students fighting, with guns. The clip used sounds taken from CSS.

From what I thhink when you say school rumble is the wierd clip when the students are playing that Samuri horseback game.

AZUMANGA IS THE BEST OF ALL
i got the entire manga collection and read it in a day... had to keep from crying at the end though... thinking that there would be no more... but it was easily the funniest thing i have ever read. but ive only seen 8 episodes of the anime, im about to continue, if i can find them in japanese (have i yet expressed my hatred of the adv dub?)

if you want Azumanga subbed, then use a Veoh client.

Its (most of the time) awesome at pinpointing what you want to find. I got every single episode of Azumanga Daioh subbed except 1.

Yep, that's school rumble, gun fight is like the 2nd episode of the 2nd season.

And yeah, either veoh or guba or stage6 usually have the whole Azumanga daioh anime online.

ZOMG AZUMANGA FTW!

Sadly, he mentioned already seeing it.

I think a user on Google going by LeKordes or something has all but 23 and 24 up. Or try Stage6.

Air Gear can be pretty funny, but maybe a little too serious.

Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, I just watched the fourth episode, and I like the series alot so far, nothing to make me laugh uproariously, but still damn good. I really liked episode 4:

"Look into my eyes and see what I'm feelng"

*KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILLY*

*T-This person is DANGEROUS!*

*grabs hand and glares*

"Come, everyone show what your feeling!!"

My god that was great!

I forgot to mention Dokuro-chan, Dai Mahou Touge and Seto no Hanayome. Seto no Hanayome may be the funniest anime I've seen ^^

Can you people not read? He said he's seen AzuDai.

Anyway, my recommendations are also Excel Saga, Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan, and Please Teacher (though that one turns from romantic comedy to just romantic by the end of it).

From what I thhink when you say school rumble is the wierd clip when the students are playing that Samuri horseback game.

Both clips are from School Rumble. However, the clip of the horseback game set to Duel of the Fates is from season one, whereas the CSS clip is from season two.

I see... part of me REALLY wants to know the transition from harmless, traditional Japanese game, to lethal gunfight slaughterfest inside of a school... and the other part says: Don't let them tell you! Find out for your goddamn self!

It's far from a slaughterfest. If you watch the CSS clip, you'll notice that the girl who gets shot in the head is hit with a plastic bullet.

Probably been said by now, but Excel Saga. Great Teacher Onizuka is also pretty funny, at least the episodes I've seen.

Hmm, alright, I must not have paid enough attention, all I saw was something fly into bits as it hit her in the heat... was too busy laughing, cool though.
