I'm just about to start the first episode of Baccano! since ANN isn't working so I can't watch Eureka Seven right now.

I finally actually got through the whole episode for Ergo Proxy 3 earlier too! It took me about five tries, but I did it!

Finished School Rumble. Loved it, but I demand closuuuuuuuuuuuure!!! I really like how despite being a crazy comedy filled with exaggeratedly caricaturised characters, it included one of the most well rounded and realistic characters I've seen in anime (Eri-chan.)

Tried to get myself started on the Gundam thing by means of the famous SEED, but it seems that it's really not my thing. It didn't help that it has the same character designer of S-CRY-ed which looks kind of cool on stills but awful on animation.

Trigun episodes 12-14. Started the more serious half of the story, though I'd forgotten just how silly it still is XD

I'm currently watching Kimi ni todoke, it's very nice compared to the other series I've watched. It's really beautiful and heartwarming.

Still working on Gankutsuou and Soul Eater, but I also watched Heat Guy J this week. And I loved it! I'd heard it described as "Cowboy Bebop meets Miami Vice" with character designs ala Escaflowne, which intrigued me, and also found out that just about every one of my favorite seiyuu were in it - so far the only exceptions that have come to mind are Miyano Mamoru and Romi Park - and just had to give it a look. Very glad I did, I thorougly enjoyed it. :thumb:

I'm in the middle of Darker than Black: Ryusei no Gemini episode 7.

I'm starting to see a Suoh and July pairing more now, and I can kind of figure out why he's joined with them.

I know, awesome right? It was a good ending for the series. :)

Just finished watching Aria. I want to cry, because this beautiful series is over. :sniffle:

Just started Gungrave (all I can say is: wow :wow!:)

Still weekly watching Bleach, Inuyasha, and Naruto.
Also watching Cardcaptor Sakura, Hunter x Hunter OVAs, Noodle Fighter Miki, and Slayers (original).

And I'm going to buy the Death Note DVDs this week! Woot! :dizzy:

I just finished episode 3 of Baccano!. This show is pretty epic, Isaac and Miria are hilarious, and Firo is all kinds of cool. Plus he has Jason Liebriect(sp?), so he is made of win for being Hei AND Hikaru.

Watched the first episode of Grappler Baki and after a lost battle between laughter and convulsing revolt at its horrible, horrible animation, character design and grasp of anatomy (not to mention cliche plot and trite characters), I decided never ever watch another episode.

Picked up Eden of the East again! I have a horrible habit of putting series I really love on hold for way too long because I don't want them to end, but this has the problem of me not remembering what happened.....

Haha, it's happened to me several times.

Anyway, watched a couple episodes of Maburaho! (found it bland and cliché so I'm letting it go) and the latest episode of Naruto Shippuuden (Now with 400% more flashbacks!)

Started Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann today; watched the first two episodes. Well, uh, so far, there's giant robots. And fanservice; [s]perhaps a bit[/s] way too much of that. Either way, I'm liking the style: not taking itself too seriously, looking cool while doing awesome things, the visual look and feel of the series, etc. I've heard it gets better, too. Oh, and Kamina's a nut, but he's a awesome nut.

The fanservice gets toned down in once you get past episode 6. In the beach episode, Yoko actually has less-revealing clothing than she normally wears. If you can, watch the televised version of episode 6 though. It's a wonderful series though, my personal favorite.

I'm working more on Baccano!, now I'm on episode 8. This show is all sorts of awesome, and since the next episode is focused on Isaac and Miria, I can't wait!

Finally got around to finishing Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. I think by the end of the third season and a few OVAs, it's pretty clear that it's more of the same. Ultimately, it's entertaining, but little has changed from before. Welp, time to go wait for another batch of OVAs from this series before being surprised by a fourth season or whatever.

Watched Hellsing Ultimate OVA 1 as vaccine against the sparkle. I am going to see New Moon this weekend, against my better judgement.

I swallowed the whole of Gurren Laggan in 2 days flat. I have an odd desire to wear over-the-top orange visors while screaming at slacking students, "Hey, hey hey! Who the the heck do you think I AM!" Alternatively I've been considering declaring "When they talk about NAU's insane physics instructor, THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT ME! - Pascal of Butsurigaku no Daigakuinsei!"...

...

But then the staring would ensue and the men in white coats would take me away and feed me to the anti-spirals.

In other news, I just realized that I forgot to tear off all the tags from my pants before wearing them around the entire city yesterday... thus I have been an excellent advertisement for IZOD by wearing their logo on my rump. O_O. Doshite...
