You have to be joking. I am very open minded when it comes to anime, but I am sorry I have to draw the line in ballet magical girl fighting anime. And I recommend for anyone who hasn't watched it yet to see Azumanga DaiohAnd as a recommendation to Zaku, did you ever watch Haruhi? Its just starting to be mainstream, but its pretty good. So is Ichigo Mashimaro, but its overwhelmingly cute, which shouldn't be a problem because you're showing us a magical girl ballet fighting anime.

I know I thought it looked retarded as hell when I first saw it. Then I was payed to download it for two of my friends. And I started to watch it. It's surprisingly deep and good.

Hahaha, You were paid to download it. Very nice. So I'll compromise and say if I was paid to download it, I'd watch it.

Hey 10 bucks a DVD is a good price for me. 5 DVD's per person. I made a nice profit off of Christen and Kim.

Anything I would recommend is probably on Adult Swim, since that is my main source of anime. There was one anime I watched On Demand, it was Jing the Theif King or something like that. It was funny, but I only say like two or three episodes. Another good anime is Desert Punk, which I also saw On Demand.
Anyway, here is a list of anime shows I have seen on Adult Swim and enjoyed. If you see one you don't recognize, I suggest you look into it:
Blue Gender Cowboy Bebop Samurai Champloo Big O Trinity Blood Bleach

I keep hearing about/seeing the two, so I'm just gonna ask the question now to get it out of my mind.
What's better, Cowboy Bebop, or Samurai Champloo? I'll start watching one of them on Adult Swim or Youtube if I get the chance.

They're both made by the same guys, and Mugen's English dub is actually Spike's voice. They're both awesome, but Samurai Champloo is kinda on the random side. Not like random gags, but like random plotlines. I mean, the main characters play baseball in one episode.

So what're they both about?

Samurai Champloo is basically about 2 badasses who hate each other because they're so evenly matched in swordfighting that they can't kill each other, so they're frustrated with each other. They travel around with a girl named Fuu because she won a bet that forced them to help her look for "The sunflower samurai". I haven't actually finished it because I saw so many scattered episodes that I dont know where exactly I left off, but I think the sunflower samurai is her father or something, it doesn't matter, its just got lots of sword fights, and thats what everyone cares about.
Cowboy bebob is about awesome shit in space that you have to watch right now. RIGHT NOW!!!

Nice way to put it Nam...
Cowboy Bebop is about bounty hunters, Spike and Jet. They gain more crew members in their escapades through space. Some episodes are funny, some are dramatic. The movie is fucking awesome.

Ok, Gen. So which one do YOU think is better?

Both are excellent animes. There is no way to say which is better per se, except if you are inclined to samurai-based animes or science fiction-based animes.
However, they are not my favorite animes, so I can't give a real opinion. I enjoy them, but they are not on the "must watch even if they are old episodes" list of animes I enjoy.
