Naruto and Kenshin are the only two I'd suggest currently.

Well, as series go, 'Bebop' is class. I'd also recommend 'One Piece', 'Those Who Hunt Elves', 'Record of Lodoss War', 'Excel Saga', and 'Street Fighter II V'.

As for movies, there's 'Akira', but everyone's seen that. 'Jin-Roh' is brilliant, 'Metropolis' and 'Spriggan' are dead good, and I can't recommend 'Wings of Honneamise' highly enough.

I'll make a recommendation no one else has yet.

Vision of Escaflowne.

Completely and utterly masterful. Fantasy and anime at its absolute finest.

It's basically about a girl pulled into another world populated by knights who pilot organic mech called guymelefs. It deals with the concepts of Luck and Fortune and Destiny, and does it pretty heavily, as is to be expected - the main character (Hitomi) is something of a fortune teller, and tells many fortunes as the series go on. It's a very itneresting concept I can't quite spell out but it's much more interesting in practice.

I forgot to say Noir. I have heard that some people don't like the whole femme fatale thing, I usually don't care for it much myself, but Noir is pretty good.
