Hi guys.

I'm looking for some good action animes, preferably with superpowers and no mecha.

I really don't know what to look at anymore that's good, here's a list of what I already know.
I haven't watched all, I'll add which ones I haven't watched and hope that you guys tell me if its worth watching.
It's quite a long list.....

*= Watched.
**= Haven't watched and don't know if it's worth it.
***= Not sure if it's even an action anime and don't know if I should watch it.
Nothing = I'm watching it eventually.
Big 3*
HxH
Magi
Fairy Tail
AOT*
SAO*
Fate/Zero*
Darker Than Black*
Mirai Nikki*
K project*
Hamatora*
Blue Exorcist*
Zettai Karen Children*
Noragami*
The Legend of Legendary Heroes*
Chrome Shelled Regios*
Kaze No Stigma**
Date A Live*
Code Geass
Deadman Wonderland*
Monster
Berserk
D. Gray-Man
FMA
Cowboy Bebop**
Samurai Champloo**
Infinite Stratos***
Soul Eater**
Hellsing***
Black Lagoon**
Yu Yu Hakusho***
Inu Yasha
Black Bullet
History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi***
Ginatama
Rurouni Kenshin
Psycho-Pass***
Guilty Crown
Phantom: Requiem for the phantom**
Steins;Gate*** (Heard it's amazing though)
Claymore***

I'll appreciate it if any of you actually read that list.

I prefer animes that have less than 50 episodes, I'll get to the longer series after I'm done with the smaller ones.
I'm also big on romance so if it's in the anime that's a huge plus for me.
Good artwork is also necessary, I'm okay with old artwork as long as it's better than the Great Teacher Onizuka artwork.



Now, I want to know.
Which ones would you suggest for me to watch first and which ones are not even worth watching?

I don't even enjoy big 3 that much, most of the time there is 1 attack, then the fighters hold a conversation for 3 minutes before they attack again.

Okay, well I don't have any other things to recommend, other than the Akame ga Kiru anime coming out at July 6.

Yeah I'm psyched for Akame Ga Kill coming out, I hope that the anime doesn't censor too much.
you should watch shaman king
Shaman King? lel that's a funny name.
Ummmmmm Super powers ?

Code Breaker .
Why thank you.

Date a live II, mangaka san to assistant san, hataraku maou sama.
Well, Mangaka san and Hataraku aren't action but they seem to be fun, and they both involve romance so that's definitely going to be added to my list.
Already watched Date A Live 2 ;)

I see four on there that are definitely worth it.

- Cowboy Bebop (great gun and hand-to-hand fights, arguably the greatest anime of all time with the coolest lead character ever;))
- Samurai Champloo (best swordfights I've ever seen in anime)
- Black Lagoon (great gunplay and a dub second only to Bebop)
- Hellsing (watch the OVA Ultimate, not the anime)
