Default What other Anime would appeal to me?

I loved Samurai Champloo, Kaiji and The Boondocks (not really an anime) But I absolutley hated Death Note, and from watching the first 10 min of Full Metal Alchemist it looks like a bit of a kids show. (What I meas is kids for main characters, which I find slightly unappealing.)

So it seems I am attracted to the more "unconventional" anime. Any other suggestions?

FMA turns out grossly dark around episode 8 if you can last that long. Really twisted, actually.

You'll love Afro Samurai. Definitely give that a go.

The robot pisses me off. I'm up to episode 15 and I don't think I really get it.

I'll try Afro Samurai

Anyone else got any suggestions?

I watched the first episodes of cowboy bebop and code geass. Both better then full metal alchemist, I did like Code Geass the best out of these 3 but none are as good as Samurai Champloo. More suggestions please I'll dl the 2 the poster above me suggested aswell. Anyone who recommends an anime better then Samurai Champloo gets an e cookie. But I'd say Ultimate Surviver Kaiji is still my favorite aside from Boondocks. If anyone can top those ill give you an e bj.

Tri gun and outlaw star if you like bebop
and ruroni kenshin if you like samurais just watch the ovas if you like gore and slayers if you like a good laugh.

Straight gore is rather boring, afro samurai lacked depth and the premise of the story really didn't make sense. Don't pass your assumptions on me you ignorant prick

it's not that samurai x is all gore, it's just that it is more gore. don't make assumptions on anime's you haven't seen.

Alright here is the sickest list of badass anime you will ever see. your welcome. I highly recomend that these shows be watched in japanese with subs cause otherwise they are gay.
i have included links to where you can watch these shows streaming.

FIGHTING:

Baki The Grappler: Lots of violence and hella sick fighting. http://www.otakucenter.com/baki-grappler-f258.html

Fist of the North Star: The Movie: Post WWIII hella gory fighting, but dam cool.
http://www.otakucenter.com/fist-north-star-original-t15474.html

Get Backers: 2 guys are retreival agent that get back things that were stolen or lost. one guy has electric powers and the other one is really strong. both really good at fighting.
http://www.otakucenter.com/getbackers-f115.html

Hajime no ippo: Boxing anime. sounds like it would be kinda gay but its really good.
http://www.otakucenter.com/hajime-no-ippo-f377.html

History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi: Weak kid gets trained by a bunch of masters. Long story short he turns into a badass. Good fighting and its pretty funny too.
http://www.otakucenter.com/historys-strongest-disciple-kenichi-f147.html

Ikkitousen(all 3 seasons): High school fighting anime. Hella echi with lots of panty shots and awsome fighting.
http://www.otakucenter.com/ikki-tousen-series-f492.html

One Piece: At first i thought this show looked gay cause i saw it once on cartoon network. Then i realized if i watch it in japanese with subs then it is WAY better. The english version takes out all the fighting and blood making it gay. after watching it in japanese it became pretty much my favorite show.
http://www.otakucenter.com/one-piece-f49.html

Tenjho Tenge: High School fighting anime. lots of sweet fighting and pretty echi too.
http://www.otakucenter.com/tenjho-tenge-f76.html

Yu Yu Hakusho: Streetfighter becomes the spirit detective of earth and kicks demon asses. kinda old but still awsome.
http://www.otakucenter.com/yu-yu-hakusho-series-f501.html

SWORDS N STUFF:

Bleach: One of my Favorite shows. High school guy with big sword killing demons and being badass
http://www.otakucenter.com/bleach-series-f212.html

Berserk: Kinda middle ages sword fighting with demons and stuff. pretty gory and awsome.
http://www.otakucenter.com/berserk-f85.html

Claymore: Also kinda middle ages with demons and gore but with a chick.
http://www.otakucenter.com/claymore-f106.html

Ninja Scroll(The movie not the series, the series sucked.):Ninja and samurai. pretty gory and a considerable amount of nudity. Overall it was awsome.

GUNS N STUFF:

Black Lagoon: Badass mercenary show. Hot chick with 2 guns, a dirty mouth, and some hella short cutoffs. One of my favorite shows.

Devil May Cry: You should know the game. they made a really cool anime of it.
