| Astro Boy (TV 1/1963) |
Very good |
Innovative and historically important and surprisingly entertaining, even by modern standards. |

Sci fi epic that transcends most of the schlock released during that time period. |

Good |
I've only seen one episode, but it looks promising. |
| Cardcaptor Sakura (TV) |
Good |
I'm a big CLAMP fan, but somehow I never quite figured out why this was so exceptionally popular. |

Very good |

It runs a little long and eventually becomes stale, but its a classic. |

Masterpiece |
A series that is so outstanding that an explanation would only detract from its perfection. |
| Gad Guard (TV) |
Very good |
This is undoubtedly the best neo-retro giant robot show that I've seen ever since Giant Robo started the movement in 1992. Excellence oozes from the screen. |
| Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo (TV) |
Masterpiece |
Revolutionary animation style that exceeded my greatest expectations and the magnificent plot of The Count of Monte Cristo to tie it together. Not to mention Gonzo's signature genius. |

Good |
Surprisingly good considering the exceedingly cliched plot. |

More character-driven than .hack//SIGN and focuses less on the action and fantasy of The World, but it's simply too short. |

From what I've seen, this show has stunning visuals accompanied by a cliche story. |

Very good |
Has anyone not seen this series? |

Very good |
I've only seen one episode, but it was immensely entertaining. |

Despite some exceedingly cliche elements, the animation is superb, the story and characters are fun, and the references and inside jokes are in and of themselves worth at least one viewing. |

Uniquely quirky and charming, this is innocence at its very best. |

The obligatory harem show, it is frivolous and ridiculous; but entertaining nonetheless. |

Good |
Not a great anime in and of itself, but its nice to see where it all started. |

I've only seen the first episode, and it sucked; but I'm going to finish it nonetheless simply because Kuroda Yousuke wrote it. |

Outstanding spoof of the giant robot genre, I can't wait to see more. |

This is the most popular anime in Japan for a reason. It's great in every imaginable way a shonen series can be. |

Very good |
A classic show that raised the bar for both giant robot shows and anime as a whole. |

Excellent |
Classic for a reason; perfect blend of romance, action, and comedy. |
| S-CRY-ed (TV) |

If you took everything that has ever made X-Men popular, boiled it down into its purest form, and set it in post-apocalyptic Japan you would have s-CRY-ed. |

Decent |
An interesting and action-packed take on the Journey to the West legend. I could do without the bishonen. |
| Samurai 7 (TV) |
Excellent |
A-W-E-S-O-M-E. Awesome! Watch the original movie. Then watch the series. Rinse and repeat. |
