New Anime Help
I was a big fan of Naruto, And Bleach and was looking for another long-running anime similar to these two with a good english dub.
I'm still planning on trying Code Geass again, and Psycho-pass, and Tokyo Ghoul if/when they come out with an english dub (log horizon too)
But because i want a long anime, for when im done the short ones, i was looking into these three in particular:
So tell me which of these 3 you reccommend the most please
-gintama
-hunter x hunter
-claymore
Also, i've checked some stuff out regarding one piece, and i just really don't like the art style or the voice actors..
also if you have any other recommendations that are similar to bleach and naruto, please reccommend them to me.
EDIT: please order them from 1-3 which i should watch first. thank you!

Guess I should've stated that I've already seen sao and aot already.
Sword Art Online
[quote=djmaxaaron]The only anime that has a somewhat decent english dub would be full metal alchemist. Usually english dubs are poorly voiced and make the overall story go down a level or two so I don't know, you'd miss a lot of the emotion and meaning behind the words since it's supposed to be in japanese.[/quote]
I find that Baccano had a VERY good english voice cast. You could tell that every VA took their roles seriously and did the best with what they had. It helps a lot that the story takes place mainly in the 1930s in Chicago and New York and many of the VAs that play local characters use accents and terminology from those times. And those who have foreign accents use them convincingly for the most part as well. Most of them also just have interesting things to say. Honestly, I prefer sub, but that is one series I insist on dub for.
@Seraphicate: Yeah I know why some of the dub people say the dub is better, but personally I cared more about the effect his voice left on me, as opposed to the plausibility of Lelouch having that voice if that makes any sense.
[quote=zpattack12]Code Geass in English dub is weird tbh I mean, I prefer subs, but I'm not gonna freak out over dubs, but really, Lelouch's voice is a lot better in sub imo. But a lot of people like his dub voice since it matches him as a high school boy better, and the jap voice doesn't really sound like that. His Japanese voice is instead like, super hammy, and really deep, and it adds a really nice effect to his character.
Now ontopic.... I never watched those hehe.[/quote]
I thought the dub for Code Geass was better; Lelouch doesn't sound like an old man in the dub.
Claymore - 1
Gintama - 2
Hunter x Hunter - 3
That's my personal rank on the three you've given us, hunter X hunter is 3 because I didn't like it and had to drop it

isn't claymore 2 cour?
The only good long-running anime I can think of is Slayers... but I still recommend the sub version. The voice actors from that anime are legendary. The lead character's VA also sings all the intros.
the moment u said long running besides Naruto and Bleach i would av suggested One piece but for now go with HxH/Gintama
@Wordolio : Also Doubrbt you'd want to watch gintama in english dub.
Since Alot.. lemme stress that again. [b]ALOT[/b] of the jokes/ comedy side are puns/ pulls of Japanese Culture.
[quote=MybulIets]Not sure about a gintama english dub, but
Gintama - [b]1[/b].
hunter x hunter - 2.
Claymore - 3.
but this coming form a guy who has only seen Gintama 3 times, and none of the other two. So don't be heavily persuaded by me lol.[/quote]
Dannng, you're right. There's no dub.
Not sure about a gintama english dub, but
Gintama - [b]1[/b].
hunter x hunter - 2.
Claymore - 3.
