| Ah! My Goddess (TV) | Good | |
| Ah! My Goddess: The Movie | Good | |
| Antique Bakery (TV) | Excellent | Really well done and sticks pretty closely to the manga story. Some people were bothered by the CG animation backgrounds, but I didn't mind, especially since the manga-ka does very limited background art. I love Ono; he's so cute! |
| Aquarian Age - Sign for Evolution (TV) | Decent | Eh. The band's music was TERRIBLE. Action scenes were fun though. And the soundtrack (minus band songs) is pretty awesome. |
| Azumanga Daioh (TV) | Masterpiece | One of my favorite series of all time. Great school comedy with hilariously memorable characters. |
| Baccano! (TV) | Excellent | Unique setting in 1930s America and great animation. Bloody violent. Literally. |
| Basilisk (TV) | Very good | Completely predictable R&J type anime. But ninja magic powers are fun. |
| Batman: Gotham Knight (movie) | Good | Mix of good and simply all right. I do appreciate them keeping the original B:TAS VA for Bruce. |
| Black Lagoon (TV) | Very good | Very good action anime with modern day pirates. |
| Black Lagoon: The Second Barrage (TV) | Excellent | An even better second season with creepy "vampire" twincest and simply kickass gun-toting nuns. Also a trip for Rock back home to Japan that doesn't really go all that well. |
| Cardcaptor Sakura (TV) | Very good | Drags a little long in some places with filler, but a really adorable children's anime without being over the top cutesy. |
| Cardcaptor Sakura Movie 2: The Sealed Card | Good | |
| Cardcaptor Sakura: The Movie | Good | |
| Ceres, Celestial Legend (TV) | Decent | Bloody violent anime, especially shocking after watching not nearly as violent Fushigi Yuugi. Also creepy incest. Yech. |
| Chocolate Underground (ONA) | Decent | |
| Cowboy Bebop (TV) | Excellent | A classic, must-see anime. |
| Cowboy Bebop: The Movie | Very good | |
| D.N.Angel (TV) | Good | Bishie eye candy that I almost dropped in the middle due to episodic plots, but am glad I stuck it out through because the friendship developments that come later on are really well done. |
| Densha Otoko (live-action movie) | Good | |
| Descendants of Darkness (TV) | Decent | Ehhhhhhhh... shounen-ai, of sorts... but it didn't really keep me interested. However, watching the dub provided no end of hilarity with the terrible voice acting and actor choice. |
| Detective Loki (TV) | Very good | Pretty good magical boy anime. And I like the incorporation of Norse mythology. |
| Detroit Metal City (OAV) | Excellent | Fabulously crude and hilarious. Totally ruined my vocabulary for the time being with all the cussing. Marathoned this and laughed all night. Don't be eating during any "Demon Jewel" scenes, btw. |
| Emma: A Victorian Romance (TV) | Masterpiece | Absolutely beautiful story of an upstairs/downstairs relationship in Victorian England, of all places. Stunning detail. A lot of love went into this anime. |
| Fake (OAV) | Good | This needs to be expanded into a real series. It would be SO much better. One of my favorite manga, and they took the least interesting, most blah storyline out of it. |
| Fighting Spirit (TV) | Masterpiece | A shocker. I really thought I would hate it, and it currently ranks number one on my anime. Ippo is amazing. Fighting music is awesome. Sat on the edge of my seat during some fights. Some people may get turned off by the animation style, but it really does suit the boxing gym characters. |
| Fruits Basket (TV) | Excellent | Another classic, must-see. Pretty boys, great story, cute animals, good humor, and just a very touching anime. |
| Fullmetal Alchemist (TV) | Masterpiece | |
| Fullmetal Alchemist: The Movie - Conqueror of Shamballa | Very good | |
| Fushigi Yûgi - The Mysterious Play (TV) | Very good | |
| Fushigi Yugi Eikoden (OAV) | Decent | |
| Fushigi Yuugi (OAV) | Decent | |
| Fushigi Yuugi (OAV 2) | Decent | |
| Genshiken (TV) | Good | |
| Getbackers (TV) | Good | |
| Gravitation: Lyrics of Love (OAV) | So-so | |
| Haibane Renmei (TV) | Excellent | |
| Hatsukoi Limited (TV) | Excellent | A surprisingly fun ecchi high school romance. Normally avoid ecchi like the plague, but the situations were so funny and felt mostly real, and the characters interesting, that the fanservice was only a minor annoyance. A very pretty anime, too, with a soft palette, and the characters are very distinctive looking. |
| Hellsing (TV) | Good | |
| Here is Greenwood (OAV) | Very good | |
| Honey and Clover (live-action movie) | Decent | |
| Jin-Roh - The Wolf Brigade (movie) | So-so | |
| Kaleido Star (TV) | Excellent | |
| Kino's Journey (TV) | Very good | |
| Kirepapa (OAV) | Good | |
| Last Exile (TV) | Masterpiece | |
| Library War (TV) | Excellent | |
| Lovely Complex (TV) | Very good | |
| Magic User's Club (TV) | Good | |
| Magic User's Club (OAV) | Very good | |
| Midori Days (TV) | Very good | |
| Mirage of Blaze (TV) | Decent | |
| Mirage of Blaze: Rebels of the River Edge (OAV) | Decent | |
| Mononoke (TV) | Masterpiece | The Medicine Seller returns from Bakeneko/Ayakashi: Samurai Horror Tales in five more short arcs with more exquisitely lovely paper art. |
| Mushi-Shi (TV) | Excellent | |
| My Neighbor Totoro (movie) | Very good | |
| My-HiME (TV) | Excellent | |
| Ninja Scroll (movie) | So-so | |
| Noir (TV) | Good | |
| Oh My Goddess! (OAV) | Good | |
| Ouran High School Host Club (TV) | Masterpiece | Satirizes the bishie/reverse harem anime splendidly. I loved Haruhi, the anti-stereotypical female lead amidst a sea of beautiful, silly men. |
| Outlaw Star (TV) | Very good | |
| Paprika (movie) | Very good | |
| Paradise Kiss (TV) | Very good | |
| Paranoia Agent (TV) | Very good | |
| Ping Pong (live-action movie) | Excellent | |
| Pretear (TV) | So-so | |
| Princess Mononoke (movie) | Excellent | |
| Princess Nine (TV) | Excellent | |
| Princess Tutu (TV) | Masterpiece | |
| R.O.D -The TV- | Very good | |
| RahXephon (TV) | Masterpiece | Complex, beautiful, and above all, a love story. I normally find mecha very uninteresting, but RahXephon managed to snag a top 5 spot of my all time favorites. Episode 19 will rip you apart. |
| Ramen Fighter Miki (TV) | Good | |
| Ranma ½ OAV | Good | |
| Ranma ½: Big Trouble in Nekonron, China (movie) | Good | |
| Ranma ½: Nihao My Concubine (movie) | Good | |
| Rayearth (OAV) | Not really good | |
| Read or Die (OAV) | Excellent | It's ME. With magic paper powers. I can't help but love this anime. |
| Samurai Champloo (TV) | Masterpiece | |
| Samurai X: Trust & Betrayal (OAV) | Masterpiece | |
| Scrapped Princess (TV) | Very good | |
| Sensitive Pornograph (OAV) | Not really good | |
| Serial Experiments Lain (TV) | Very good | |
| Shonen Onmyouji (TV) | Very good | So glad they decided to finish releasing this in the US. IIRC, this was marketed as shounen-ai-ish, but it really isn't. It's a story about friendship, even if the anime is full of bishounen spirit guardians. I really enjoyed this anime. |
| Sorcerer Hunters (TV) | So-so | |
| Spirited Away (movie) | Excellent | |
| Super GALS (TV) | Very good | |
| Tales of Agriculture (TV) | Very good | |
| Tokyo Babylon (OAV) | Not really good | |
| Tokyo Babylon 2 (OAV) | Not really good | |
| Tokyo Godfathers (movie) | Very good | |
| Toradora! (TV) | Masterpiece | Possibly the best romantic comedy anime ever made. Unpredictable, amazingly real, complex characters, non-stereotypical behavior and story. I probably cried as much as I laughed. |
| Transformers (U.S. TV) | Very good | |
| Transformers: The Movie (U.S.) | Good | |
| Trigun (TV) | Very good | |
| Trinity Blood (TV) | Good | |
| (The) Twelve Kingdoms (TV) | Excellent | |
| Witch Hunter Robin (TV) | Good | |
| X (movie) | Decent | |
| X (TV) | Very good | |
| Yakitate!! Japan (TV) | Excellent | |
| Will not finish | Rating | Comment |
| Bleach (TV) | Very good | Was extremely good all the way through the Soul Society Arc, and then the filler killed it. Even when they returned to canon episodes, they kept interspersing filler until I got fed up and quit. Plus the animation quality dropped so much, it completely irritated me and made watching it a chore, not a pleasure. I'll just stick with the manga. |
| D4 Princess (TV) | Bad | Saw part of this in an anime club, and it was just stupid to even bother finishing. |
| Excel Saga (TV) | Not really good | Too weird. |
| Futari wa Pretty Cure (TV) | Weak | Too cutesy girly. |
| Gilgamesh (TV) | So-so | This actually didn't look so bad, but then I lost interest in the story somewhere, and there's too much more interesting anime out there for me to bother. |
| Gravitation (TV) | Not really good | The blond guy is a cold bitch, and the pink guy's a big baby. Boring as hell. |
| GUNxSWORD (TV) | | First episode did not grab me. Van looks like a plain ripoff of Spike Spiegel, which didn't help. Did not like character designs, except for Van's. Bored. |
| Happy Lesson (TV) | Bad | Hate harem anime. |
| Inuyasha (TV) | So-so | Too effing long to get involved in. The world looks kinda cool, but as soon as I saw that necklace shatter into five billion pieces I gave up. |
| Itazura na Kiss (TV) | So-so | The main guy is such an arrogant prick, I can't tolerate the main girl being all love-love about him. She's a spineless airhead. Apparently he does get better later on, but I don't even want to bother with this. |
| Kasimasi - Girl Meets Girl (OAV) | So-so | I don't think yuri is my thing. Concept was too weird, with the aliens and such. |
| Kimagure Orange Road (TV) | Not really good | Didn't look interesting, and the animation style is too dated for my tastes. I can make exceptions, like for Here is Greenwood, but the storyline just didn't hook me. |
| Knight Hunters (TV) | Awful | Bishies and my favorite VA couldn't even overcome the crappy animation and completely terrible storyline. |
| Kokoro Library (TV) | Awful | Too girly and the sisters are weird. |
| Level C (OAV) | Weak | Yech. Too porny. And the guys weren't even good looking. |
| Loveless (TV) | Not really good | I hate loli/shouta anime. |
| Macross Frontier (TV) | So-so | Potentially a really really good looking series, until all the flagrant fanservice with Sheryl drove me away. Really a bummer, because aside from the annoying fanservice, the anime looked quite interesting. |
| Magikano (TV) | | Pathetic fanservice harem anime. Not even funny. |
| My Sexual Harassment (OAV) | Bad | WAY WAY past my comfort zone! |
| Naruto (TV) | Very good | Like Bleach, Naruto was a lot of fun, up until the final battle between Naruto and Sasuke. Then like 100 eps of crappy filler followed. When Shippuuden finally started up, they dragged out the episodes SO much, and dropped the art quality correspondingly (except for Sakura's big fight; that was pretty cool), I gave up in frustration. I mean, really, how long were Kakashi and Naruto in that stupid tree canyon? |
| Naruto Shippūden (TV) | Good | See Naruto. |
| Night Head Genesis (TV) | So-so | Younger brother was too whiny, and animation wasn't all that. Got terrible reviews from people who did see it, so I didn't bother. |
| Otaku no Video (OAV) | Not really good | ... not my thing, I guess. |
| Pokémon (TV) | | Too old for Pokemon, although I wouldn't mind giving it a chance, subbed. |
| Project A-Ko (movie) | So-so | Too many boobs. |
| Ranma ½ (TV) | Very good | I really liked this at first (it was the first anime I saw and recognized as anime), but when I found out it went for over a hundred episodes, I stopped. Especially since it doesn't really progress anywhere. Ranma and Akane never get together, and she never figures out Ryoga is P-chan. What's the point? |
| Rurouni Kenshin (TV) | Excellent | All the canon episodes were excellent, especially the entire Kyoto Arc. Everyone I know has said the third season is a complete waste of time and total filler, so I just ended while it was good, and bought all the manga instead. I rated this an Excellent for the canon episodes, although it really should be a Masterpiece, if it wasn't for all the filler. |
| Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs (TV) | Decent | Too silly to ever watch seriously, but I gave it a decent for nostalgia. I saw this when I was pretty young, and this is probably the first anime I ever saw, without knowing what anime was. I thought it was super cool. I recently saw a clip on youtube, and laughed my self silly. |
| Saiyuki (TV) | Not really good | Crappy animation lost my interest. |
| Saki (TV) | | The mahjong parts were great. The unnecessary over the top fanservice was not. Ruined a potentially interesting anime. |
| Sakura Diaries (OAV) | Bad | Watched part of this on a whim, but it's too sexual. |
| Strawberry Eggs (TV) | Weak | Too much fanservice. |
| Sugar: A Little Snow Fairy (TV) | So-so | Too cutesy and kiddish. |
| Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE (TV) | Decent | Like the Inuyasha necklace, I threw up my hands when the feathers exploded. Very pretty to watch, but too bothersome to follow. |
| Vampire Knight (TV) | So-so | A very pretty anime, full of bishies, but the angst and emoness drove me crazy. |
| Welcome to the NHK (TV) | So-so | Too much innuendo. |
| XXXHOLiC (TV) | Good | Extremely beautiful to watch, but with no story arc, it didn't hold my interest. |
