Mine has to be "Inu-yasha", "Narato" or "Bleach".

:evil: I can't decide which is better.

DragonBall is just everyone's all time favorite classic. It set the standard for all the other shows and a lot of people ripped of styles and ideas off of it. I'd have to say they're the pioneers of anime like how the beatles are with music. Another favorite of mine is YuYuHakusho of course, since it never went dull in the middle of the series with some kind of filler and HunterxHunter just because!

I guess My Favorite would be Pokemon. Still watch it to this day.

May other faves would be:

Rurouni Kenshin
Law of Ueki (Damn it Geneon WHY)
Super Gals
and gotta give credit to Sailor Moon (it's what got me into anime)

Yakitate Japan, becase a shounen anime about baking the ultimate bread is too bloody awesome.

Inuyasha is runner up because it had its high and lows (especially Naraku disappearing 230924830948304 times instead of being obliterated) but it kept strong, and since we're coming into the final chapters of the manga I can't wait to see the second half of the story animated :))

Bleach got weak after the Soul Society arc. It's basically Ichigo fights character x and y now.

Naruto got weak after Sasuke left and it went into filler arc, but the sequel Shippuden got Naruto back into its former glory and even exceeds it, the story in the manga currently kicks a lot of arse :D

Oh and DBZ had its moments but I grew out of it fast, though it entertained my childhood with the Android and Cell saga arcs, and of course the History of Trunks and Bardock movies were very good.

Rurouni Kenshin is definitely up there too but the third arc, after Kenshin fights the other Hiten Mitsuguri style master the story got shallow.

I finished Kenshin. The manga is way better.

Hm, I've seen quite a few long anime series (aka Continuous Series). Dragon Ball Z was the first anime that I ever watched to begin with. Along with Sailor Moon and Card Captor Sakura. And lets not forget Pokemon. The came Naruto and Bleach. Out of those, I'd say the three Dragon Ball series is win in my case.
