Lupin:
no, it's not the best.

at the time it aired, I think it's "different"

morrefule:
I'd have to agree.  It isn't the "Best" per say, but it is a good watch.  I wouldn't call it boring what so ever.  If you thinking it that way, you probably missed something along the way.

Personally it isn't one of my favorates, not even top 25 for me, but I think it is sorta like akira.  Everyone has to atleast watch it once to understand how anime changes over time.

Havoc10K:
it's not the best, but if you watched it and found it boring that means you simply didn't understand it at all or it didn't speak to you , l do hope you didn't watch english dubs did you ?

that title is considered mature content, this means you need some maturity to apreciate the work put into this show.

kurandoinu:
I wouldn't say it was the best... but I just find it one of those animes that I like the art style and the way I can find something new out each time. I think its more one of those you have to watch. I don't particularly like much Ghibli stuff, but its raved about by a lot of people. To each their own.

And I actually found the English dub to be okay. I watched it in English after I saw the Japanese just to compare. Asuka sounds like shes from Texas which is rather annoying however.

the trooper:
Well, is one of my favourites, but not the best.

I can try to explain why i think it's "so good":

- the psychological themes used are great (kinda disturbing for some people, but great).

- the religion references are vast and give the series a different "flavor".

- the action is short, but great.

Some people i know don't like it, not because it's "boring", but because is very complex, "weird" and hard to follow. They are right, but i think of that as a good thing, not bad.

I watched the series 4 times, when i was 9, 12, 18 and 21 years old. I only got the meaning of it ("my" meaning at least) the last time i saw it (maybe because it was the only time i didn't see it with portuguese dubs or subs ^_^).
