I'm looking for an anime with the following;
It has to have a great story, like REALLY good.
The animation must be acceptable.
I prefer something darker.
It has to have a mature story.
Try and keep the length under 100 episodes.
Little to no ecchi.
I've already seen;
Fullmetal Alchemist, FMAB, Darker Than Black, Death Note, and Baccano!.
Anything like thoses would be cool. I've only been watching anime for a year now, so I really haven't seen many anime. Thanks in advance!
Oh, It MUST have a good dub and great music.
Answer
If you liked Baccano, try:
Durarara! - Mikado Ryūgamine, a young boy who longs for the exciting life of the big city, moves to Ikebukuro at the invitation of his childhood friend Masaomi Kida, whom he has not seen since he was young, to attend Raira Academy with him. After meeting Masaomi at the train station, they both set out at night to the streets of Ikebukuro. Masaomi warns him about people he doesn't want to cross in the city: like a violent and superhumanly strong man, Shizuo Heiwajima, an information broker, Izaya Orihara, and a mysterious gang known as "The Dollars." After running into some of the side characters, Mikado witnesses a local legend called the "Black Rider", who rides around Ikebukuro on a black bike that occasionally brays like a horse and also rumored to have no head under its helmet. The "Black Rider" is Celty Sturluson, an Irish dullahan who is in Ikebukuro looking for her stolen head. The narrative follows all of the characters equally, showing how their lives intersect, creating a greater plotline from what each character knows about a common incident.
Zetsuen no Tempest - The story revolves around Mahiro Fuwa, a teenager whose family was mysteriously murdered one year before and his friend Yoshino Takigawa. Mahiro is contacted by Hakase Kusaribe, the leader of the Kusaribe clan who was left stranded on an unknown desert island by her followers, and agrees to help Hakase in exchange of her help to find out the culprit for the death of his family. Upon learning of his friend's intentions, Yoshino joins him on his quest to stand against the Kusaribe clan who intends to awake the "Tree of Zetsuen" whose power can bring ruin to the entire world.
K Project - Set in a world where history has taken a slightly different course from the one we're familiar with, K follows the story of a young boy whose life is caught in a psychic war between seven kings.
Ashinaka High School is known for its unique setting: the entire campus is built on an island. Yashiro Isana, aka Shiro, is having lunch with a cat on one of the school rooftops. After his lunch break, Shiro goes on an errand for his classmate Kukuri to prepare for their upcoming school festival, only to be chased by some intimidating-looking men.
If you liked Darker Than Black:
Try the other seasons and the movie
OR
Phantom~The Requiem for the Phantom-Mafia is rife in America where assassinations are a regular occurrence on the streets. Inferno, a mysterious company, is behind most of these dealings through the use of their near-invincible human weapon, "Phantom."
One day, a Japanese tourist accidentally witnesses Phantomâs latest murder. Desperate to escape, the tourist hides in a secluded building. However, Phantom, revealed to be a young woman named Ein, and the leader of Inferno âScythe Masterâ captures the tourist and brainwashes him.
Given the name âZweiâ, this once peaceful tourist is now a puppet of Inferno with no memories. Drawn into a world of lies, deceit, and violence, Zwei must fight to survive, hopefully to one day regain his memories and escape from this world where he is constantly on the brink of death.
Other than that, try:
Wolf's Rain - According to an old legend, when the end of the world comes, Paradise will appear; however, only wolves will know how to find it. Although wolves are believed to have been hunted to extinction nearly two hundred years ago, they still exist, surviving by taking human form. Freeze City is a northern human city in a world where the majority of people live in poverty and hardship.
The story is centered around Kiba, a wolf who tries to find the Paradise.
UN-GO - Based on the works of Ango Sakaguchi, the story follows ShinjūrŠYūki, a detective who solves mysteries with his strange partner, Inga. It is set in a futuristic Japan that has been affected by a major war and numerous terrorist attacks, after JSDF forces were deployed as peacekeepers abroad. It is centered on Shinjuurou Yuuki, a detective, often nicknamed 'The Defeated Detective', who has keen insight on mysteries. He was saved from death by Inga prior to the start of the series. He made a deal with Inga before the series started, in exchange for Inga not killing anymore people, Shinjuurou will be asked the question, what his soul really says, but this opportunity was used up when he was under the influence of Bettenou and had to use it to get out of the illusion. At the end of the prequel movie, he is given a new persona by Kaishou Rinroku. It is unknown what his name was prior to the story.

Seniors, did you ever own a motorcycle?
S
The allstate ad made me think of this. The good weather is upon us now and many are out now. We already have had a couple of fatalities. I am not sure if our law makers changed the helmet ruling. People say the helmets are hot, get in the way and such, but I feel that some lives may be saved if they wore them. Head injuries are nothing great to live with.
BQ...Do you think helmets should be mandatory?
If you ride please be safe.
Patti, I am glad you are o.k. except for the bone spurs
Answer
I have had 9 motorcycles...on my 9th...since I started riding in Japan in 1971. I'm now 65. Rode today to the Navy air station a few miles away for a hair cut and took the 'long way' home.
I ride almost daily (unless there's bad weather...I used to ride in all types of weather, but getting old and spoiled).
I also ride with a group (see the links below). The Patriot Guard Riders have been in existence since late 2005. A group of nut cases go around demonstrating at military funerals....THANK GOD FOR DEAD SOLDIERS, GOT HATES FÃGS, WE NEED MORE DEAD SOLDIERS, WE NEED MORE IEDS, YOUR SON SUFFERED, YOUR SON IS IN HELL....and other such cräp signs. A group of American Legion men formed a line between the mourners and the demonstrators...and the Patriot Guard was born. I've been a member for a little over 6 years. My 2 first missions really drove me to be deeply involved. The first was a POW/Bataan death march survivor...fell of the roof of his house and was killed. The second was Master Diver, Master Chief Carl Brashear, USN retired (subject of MEN OF HONOR, the black diver who lost his leg). He lived here in Virginia Beach. We've had 13 US Navy SEAL funerals in the past few years. I've been to 11. I was looking at a Navy publication a few months ago and recognized 2 local SEALS. Even my 15 year old daughter is a member. If I can't make a mission (at least down here in s.e. Virginia on the south side) I feel bad.
Helmets mandatory? Depends on how you fell about your brains spilling all over the road WHEN (not IF) you go down. I go for YES. In July it will be legal for 2 bikes to ride side by side in the same lane. Legal or not, the folks I ride with say they won't do it. The only thing good about the law is that bikers can't get a ticket for reckless driving when stopped side by side at a light. Yes that has happened.
One of the GIRLS (now 15, and I've known her since she was 9 years old) from church rides with me from time to time with the PGR. My wife doesn't like going on funeral escorts, but my young friend enjoys riding ANYTIME. I've mounted up and ridden to her house, rang the bell and when she came to the door, I'd hand her a helmet and say, "Ya wanna go mount up?" And we'd take off.
You don't quit riding because you get old, you get old because you quit riding.
