> [@olivesmarch4th](#): > > Netflix has a great anime selection, if you’re into it. > > _Fullmetal Alchemist_ and _Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood_ are both available. I haven’t watched Brotherhood yet, but the original series is one of the most interesting things I’ve seen on television. Can you, or anyone else, recommend more stuff like this? I have always been interested in watching more anime but never really know where to start. I have watched a handful of the more famous movies and Cowboy Bebop and Trigun, but nothing else. I am told the tv series are where it’s at, but like I said I don’t really know where to start. ---

Have you seen Avatar: Last Airbender? It is American, but looks like anime and is great(not the movie, obviously). For anime, I also liked Paranoia Agent, but it does not stream. ---

I haven’t seen Avatar. I thought about looking it up when the movie came out but never got around to it. I didnt know it was streaming, I’ll check it out, thanks. We just stopped our disc subscription or I would look at Paranoia Agent too. ---

ADVENTURES of POWER!!! But only if you’re a serious Rush fan, AND you thought Napoleon Dynamite was a good bit of fun. It was actually pretty awful, and yet I loved it. ---
