| Air (TV) | Good |
| Previously on my Top 10. Removed due to it's nature being unable to further compete with later replacements. Nonetheless, I love this series because of it's transitions, it's journey, it's ending, and the overall exp. Few series choose to do this, and such an impactful ending still has stayed with me, and doubtless ever will. | |
| Air (movie) | Decent |
| I love this movie more because it offers a pleasant "what if?" story than anything else. On it's own, and I haven't seen the TV series beforehand, this probably wouldn't be so high ranked. | |
| Aura Battler Dunbine (TV) | Good |
| While I haven't seen Ideon yet, I love this more than 1st Gundam. It's plot is more unpredictable, it's characters; more spacious with personality, and it's ending; more powerful. I call it one of Tomino's best. | |
| Azumanga Daioh (TV) | Excellent |
| Besides it being one of the easiest animes to rewatch and enjoy just as much as the first time around, it's mood and characters are such a joy to see again! It might be purer than most of it's kind, but in this case, it's vital. | |
| Berserk (TV 1997) | Masterpiece |
| I couldn't see the beauty of this show at first. It wasn't until it's 2nd half that I could see it's raw philosophical side, watch one of the best rising actions in anime, and see probably the most horrifying and disturbing endings I've ever seen. The very fact that I don't hate it because of that, only further convinces me of it's timelessness. | |
| (The) Big O (TV) | Very good |
| Just a very fun show with a not too often used plot theme added. It's mecha fights are some of the best I've seen, and the soundtrack; epic. To see a more thorough ending is a dream within dream, but it's always nice to see R. Dorothy every now and then. | |
| Blue Gender (TV) | Very good |
| The first mecha I watched AND finished. The slow, savory, moody style it uses to illustrate it's horrors is still something that shines within me. It's plot turned out to be a little underexposed, and turned the show into having a bit of a pacifistic message when it didn't really fit. Despite that, it still had plenty of resolving aspects, and one of it's core plots was handled nicely. I may give this series much more credit than it should now that I've seen more diverse titles, but it still holds the same amount of respect as when I watched it. | |
