Hetalia Axis Powers by Hidekazu Himaruya actually started as a Japanese webcomic and later turned into a manga then an anime. I can't express how happy I am that it did become an anime because I love to watch it so much! It is too funny! I really prefer the anime over manga, more so with English subs. This show has found a place in my heart from episode one and many of the lines has become an inside joke for me and my sister. If you have yet to watch/ read this please do so now, you're missing out!
A movie was released also tittled: Hetalia Paint it, White!
Genre: Comedy, Historical
Rated TV-MA (for unknown reasons...) but if you have an account with youtube and are 18 years or older you can watch it here I watch it on the Funimation channel myself and am getting the box set soon~
Okay, I had to search this up myself - What does Hetalia mean?
Hetalia is a portmanteau combining hetare (Japanese for "gutless" or "pathetic") and Italia. This is to make light of Italy's domination by neighboring states since the Italian War of 1521–1526. Also, each character is playing a country and the time period is World War II. )
I apologize for the lack of a summary but I couldn't find one TT~TT

Trigun
Trigun written and drawn by Yasuhiro Nightow is one of my favorite classics. If you haven't at least seen one episode from the anime or read one chapter from the manga then you must be leaving under a rock. Seriously. It first came out in 1996 and finished in 2008. A movie just came out as well in 2010, titled - Trigun: Badlands Rumble.
Genre: Adventure, Action, Comedy, Fantasy, Romance (slight), Sci-Fi
Summary:
Known for its Space Western theme, Trigun is about a man named "Vash the Stampede" and the two Bernardelli Insurance Society employees who follow him around in order to minimize the damages inevitably caused by his appearance. Most of the damage attributed to Vash is actually caused by bounty hunters in pursuit of the "60,000,000,000$$" (sixty billion "double dollars") bounty on Vash's head for the destruction of the city of July. However, he cannot remember the incident clearly due to his amnesia. Throughout his travels, Vash tries to save lives using non-lethal force. He is occasionally joined by a priest, Nicholas D. Wolfwood, who, like Vash, is a superb gunfighter with a mysterious past.
As the series progresses, we learn more about Vash's mysterious history and the history of human civilization on the planet Gunsmoke. The series often employs comic relief and is mostly light-hearted although its tone shifts toward darker and more dramatic situations as the series draws to a conclusion. The story line also involves moral conflict pertaining to the morality of killing other living things.
You can watch the entire anime on youtube Here or read the manga on one of the websites I have listed on the side. Although I would buy it ^--^
