Appleseed (movie) Awful Really really incomprehensible, and the English dub had subpar voices and acting. Not recommended at all, at least in English.
Appleseed: Ex Machina (movie) Awful See Appleseed.
Black Butler (TV) Excellent Not for everyone, but the dark atmosphere it creates while still managing to inject humour is fantastic. The music is impressive (ending 2 especially), the visuals are very pretty, and the story does follow a clear path to its end. Stands alone as a modern triumph. Don't miss it.
Black Butler II (TV) Excellent Takes a couple episodes to pick up, but when it does, it's just as good as the first, with what may potentially be a tighter story. Certain characters grew on me due to plot twists, and at the end I found myself rooting for someone I'd barely cared for up to that point. Marvelous.
Black Rock Shooter (OAV) Excellent I can't give this one a perfect score as it didn't grab me from the start and takes two watchings to fully understand, but god DAMN is this a good OAV. Definitely one for anyone to watch.
Colorful (TV) Good A fun if pervy romp. Great to watch with friends.
(The) Girl Who Leapt Through Time (movie) Masterpiece Incredible. A masterpiece of modern anime. Everyone needs to see it at least once.
INTERSTELLA 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem (movie) Excellent Uses the music to great effect, and the animation is lovely if a little dated. Great for Daft Punk fans, anime fans, and pretty much anyone else.
Pokémon: The Rise of Darkrai (movie 10) Good Enjoyable Pokemon fare--predictable, but not bad because of it.
Puella Magi Madoka Magica (TV) Masterpiece Absolutely incredible. The first anime that's made me cry. Deserves the hype, and more. I would hesitate to call it a deconstruction, however--but it is an incredible magical girl anime nonetheless.
Rozen Maiden (TV) Excellent Really, REALLY good, though does not stand on its own and needs Traumend to really understand more of the plot. Some plotholes prevent it from being perfect.
Rozen Maiden: Ouvertüre (special) Masterpiece Stands alone and tells its story exquisitely. Sympathy for the devil and all...
Spirited Away (movie) Masterpiece Deserves all the hype it gets.
