Uh I watched Elfen Lied a while back and found it pretty bad tbh, the character just seemed like a mewtwo/xmen knockoff coupled with the boring plot and making it interesting via gorn with heads asploding.
Haven't watched Fate Stay Night but heard it was originally a Visual Novel, can't really comment on it though.
Tbh I detest Bleach, I even have a post summarizing my thoughts on it, quoted from the Ask dead prez thread, loll.
I don't like it because it has piss poor art, no coherent story, hell the filler is better than the manga, and is filled to the brim with bishies.
It was decent up until and during the Soul Society arc, after than it spiraled down in quality and is never shoveling itself from all the shit and piss that it flooded itself with.
95 percent of the chapters are comprised of dull bullshit that people only tune into for the action sequence (which are horribly drawn btw), it's a giant mass of gray, and rarely does it ever surprise us in quality.
It's filled with stale plot arcs that have been largely smothered by horrible new ones characterized by godawful characters
Not to mention Aizen is the most bland character in existance and the hugest faggot ever. I despite that cunt.
Though if it makes you feel any better, I believe the avatar I had about aday or two back with the orange haired girl and gaping eyeballs was a distorted fan drawing of Orihime, *shrugs*.
If you want some recommandations on similar anime or manga read Vagabond for a samurai manga to replace Bleach, or Berserk (again). They're about characters with swords that like hack to shit up but have an actual story.
But if you insist on anime you can watch Monster/Death Note (after the time skip it kinda sucks though) for psychological thrillers.
At X I haven't been as up to date with Hip Hop as I should be recently, but I'll definitely check it out. And I hope you meant you'll read the Berserk Manga, cause the anime version of it is kinda shitty. That and I'm pretty sure SC's manga version is finished.
