Prior to purchasing any of these 'must have' anime boxsets, you may wish to preview some of the series. This way, it'll save you a bit of money as its always a disappointment to purchase something which you may be hyped to get but then find out its not your cup of tea.
This is not to say that any of the suggestions which have been made are not good. Its the opposite actually. These series are good (in my mind) however, everyone's taste in anime is different.
In any event and whatever you choose to do, enjoy.
Tis a Point!
everyones taste is different!

This has been my motto for watching anime (especially HK's)... sometimes you have to let go of dwelling over quality and just enjoy what your watching

Just like Ikkitousen (my review is over in the latest reviews bar on the side). The quality isn't great, but I enjoyed it fully.

I've seen X-tv and hellsing from your list and they are both very good with beatiful animation. GTO I've heard many good things about so that's a good buy. Gundam wing I saw bits from on tv and it didn't impress me alot. It seemed a very serious show. I think there are better mecha shows out there.
The dubbing of FotNS will probably never get finished. They dubbed the first 36 or 28 eps. I believe but manga (the publisher, not the HK brand) decided they wouldn't do the rest or they didn't have the license for it or something.
Crap, I wanted them to finish the dubbing of FOTNS!!! :mad: :eek: :o :confused: Anyways, does anyone know why they don't have a English dub for Shadow Skill out on HK??? I've seen it around on the Action Channel before though. :confused: :eek:
because Shadow Skill is bloody aweful and the dub is twice as bad. (I've seen a strange England based English dub BAh made me want to kill myself)
How is the Fist of the North star series compared to the movie? I only ever saw a few episodes of it and didn't think much of it compared to the movie. Though I could be wrong since they were on late and I wasn't paying much attention
I know that Dragonball is not very liked in the anime scene, but I think the first series (not Z and not GT), is defenetly worth having it.
Some more to recommned:
-Hunter x Hunter (not very famous, but damn good when u r over the first 3 episodes or somethin like that)
- NOIR (26 Episodes Perfect Collection set with Eng Dub)
-Gantz (26 Episodes Perfect Collection set with Eng Dub)
-Inuyasha might as well be worth it, but with 167 episodes, quite expensive
