Death Note reigns over all!
I got the Vol. 1 dub yesterday and it's pretty cool. They seriously need to tell us when they are releasing the new Eva movies.

Gantz was great in my opinion. It's not everyones cup of tea, however.

Last series I watched was 2 weeks ago. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.. I actually liked it minus the way it ended on a huge WTF cliffhanger. Was glad to hear a 2nd season is coming.

That looks like a good one. The animation looks nice.

Gankutsuou (The Count of Monte Cristo) is amazing. My favorite anime right now. It's a tad expensive though.
Super GALS season 1 is hilarious girly fluff, and season 2 is out now as well.
Twelve Kingdoms is very epic, though it tragically cuts off before all the loose ends are tied up.
Saiyuki is always fun and there are like, 4 seasons out.
Other then that, give me some genres and I can suggest things closer to your interests! ^_^

How about some fantasy and shounen-ai/yaoi suggestions. I already have Twelve Kingdoms and a few other fantasy series,but don't have any shounen-ai or yaoi anime at the moment. Any recommendations in those genres would be swell. |

Gravitation is probably the most famous shounen-ai one.
Loveless is fantastic, but it involves a 12 year old and a 20-some year old (they don't do more then kiss).
Sensitive Pornograph is the most graphic yaoi I've seen. Delicious. ^_^ It's short though, clocking in at only 30 minutes.
Kyo Kara Maoh kind of fits both fantasy and shounen-ai bills. It's hilarious at times and very serious at others. There isn't much "action" (winkwinknudgenudge), but it's got 5-6 main male characters and men marrying men in the fantasy world is pretty normal.
Revolutionary Girl Utena has a bit of everything in it, relationship-wise (het, yuri, yaoi, incest). And it's a crazy ride.
Hope that helps!

Ditto here. I just hope Bandai Visual doesn't get its filthy mitts on the license, though... |

I highly doubt Bandai Namco could lay their hands on the new Eva. Most likely ADV will do it again.

Lately I've been watching a lot of strange anime.
Romeo X Juliet
Goshuushosama Ninomiya-kun
Kasimashi: Girl Meets Girl
Le Portrait de Petit Cosette
Les Miserables - Shojo Cosette
There's so much. Not a fan of yaoi, however. I really liked Kasimashi: Girl Meets Girl which is obviously shoujo-ai. ^.^;

Yeah, it does...! In manga form, though. For some reason the anime just isn't as cool to me. I don't know why. And, agreed on the Eva movies. |

There's no such thing as good yaoi. There just... isn't. :U Other than Loveless, I guess, but the ending to it kinda made it less awesome. D: KKM isn't particularly shounen-ai, but they do make a few cracks with that as the subject, haha.
There's Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito if you like/don't mind yuri. Original character design was done by Carnelian, so A++ lol
The only things I've been watching recently are CLANNAD and Saiunkoku Monogatari. A little while before that was Code Geass, though. Love that stuff.
If you're really intent on getting some shounen ai, why don't you check out aarinfantasy? They fansub a lot of that sort of stuff.

Because in the anime, the drawing style is changed. They did the exact same thing with BLEACH and I hate them for doing that. And on the subject of yaoi, isn't Gravitation a pretty popular one?

Gravitation is popular. I actually read it myself. Regardless, I still am not a fan of yaoi. |

I have seen it. It start out pretty good and the design and animation is top notch.
Unfortunately Ergo Proxy degenerates into complete nonsense by the end of the show. But I guess that is the norm for anime that attempts to be philosophical/ deep.

Well I went to a con there past few days and made out with some killer spoils. A Pen-Pen plushie, a cell of Chun-Lee's face (She's looking up at something) from Street Fighter, some inking pens, manga submission paper, and autographs! Got some sigs from the guys that do Master Shake and Frylock from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, I got the girl that did Asuka's voice (she lurvs Hello Kitty), and I met Brittney Karbowski WHO IS THE BEST VOICE ACTRESS EVAR.
