The Number One Series in both Japanese and English ?

Only one comes to mind and it is still playing right now; Dextors Lab.

My guess, Princess Mononoke (in Japan). ET was to america, like Princess Mononoke was to Japan.

Actually, Spirited Away has the all-time highest Japanese box office gross, just ahead of Titanic, IIRC.

And it's obvoiusly Doraemon

I think that Neon Genesis, Love Hina, and prolly Hellsing would be in the top 15. Im not sure about the last two but definetly Neon Genesis is somewhere up there.

Definitely Neon Genesis Evangelion. It can't be beat. I also like Inuyasha.
