Help with anime

[Necrorave]

I am what you call a "Converted" person.  I used to hate anime because of the stereotypes.  Although, I have given some a chance and thoroughly enjoyed them.  The only problem is, now what?

So far I have watched:

Samurai Champloo
Naruto (Ugh)
Death Note
Soul Eater
Spirited Away
Some other movies I will not try to remember.

Currently watching:

Black Butler (Not racist)
Ghost in the Shell
Cowboy Bebopzoopdoopaloop

---------------------------------------------------------------

The ones in bold I liked ALOT.  I was wondering if any of you fellow nerds know any anime that would be similar or I would enjoy based on my bold ones. 

I know it is not a large list, but a vagina in my life inspired me to give anime a shot and now I am interested in watching more.

If you are going to suggest anything, please try to avoid "Stereotypical" anime.  Although, if you know a good one that has the Stereotypes in them then just explain why I should watch it.

Thanks

EDIT: I would also like to avoid "Mech Suit" Animes if I can.  Unless they are really worth watching through the Cheesiness.

Btw "Spirited Away" is an absolute masterpiece. I still watch whole thing over and over again occasionally.

Hmm, seems interesting.  Will look into it.  Thank you.

By the way, Spirited Away was the very first thing of Anime I watched (Excluding pokemon or YuGiOh)
Great introduction to anime if you ask me.

True. Anything by Miyazaki will be a good warmup. Talking about Miyazaki, also go for:

Howl's Moving Castle
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0347149/

For some epically gothic stuff, also try:

Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust

When it comes to series, there is of course:

One Piece (this one is directly the ultimate source for the series)

I'll try to keep you up to date with anything else I might remember.

I've watched Neon Genesis Evangelion, which was OK. I get the impression theres loads of trashy Anime so I haven't really watched much else except for Akira the movie and Ghost in the Shell.

Help with cancer?? Go to doctor

I am afraid to go.  It might turn into one of those hentai's with that nurse that wants to "Examine" you further.

Ruroini Kenshin!

[Vibe]

Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) - you will not regret it
Trigun
From the new world
One Piece (long running series)

Full Metal Alchemist was pretty cool IMO.

Loads more that I could recommend, but they're ones I haven't seen in a while, and my memory is a little blurry...

You are missing out.  A great little series.  All of the characters are amazing in it.

It has a "Hip hop" thing going on which can be awkward at times, but you get used to it and see that it fits well later on.

All around great anime.

Kinda picky when it comes to anime, love my older anime for one, and I love pretty much anything with gore and demons...

How are you watching your anime anyway? In English, or Japanese? Japanese with English subtitles is your best bet, I'm sure most anime fans would agree with me...

[Shemaforash]

Don't watch dubbed, that's all I ask for

Mushishi, NHK Ni Youkoso and Fullmetal Alchemist:Brotherhood are my sort of my favorite favorites, should have a look at them.

In all honesty, you are going to hate me.  I watch the dubbed versions.  I just find them easier to relate to the characters.  I know dubs usually are not done well or have awkward moments, but without the English language I don't relate very well to the characters.

I'd also like to mention that Samurai Champloo is fairly old.  (For me; Like 2005ish)
