| (The) Big O (TV) | Good | I can see why it's been compared to the Batman Animated Series. The style and soundtrack are very similar. But I like the traditional anime styles better and also I'm not a big fan of giant mecha/robot anime (although there are exceptions). Still, it's not bad. |
| Bleach (TV) | Masterpiece | Wow this series brings back that feeling of awe I had when I was a child watching Saint Seiya. The character designs are excellent as well. |
| Cardcaptor Sakura (TV) | Very good | Lighthearted fluff, but very good fluff :) |
| Cowboy Bebop (TV) | Masterpiece | Very detailed rich world. Can't help but get immersed in it. |
| D.N.Angel (TV) | Good | A bit childish but still a joy to watch. |
| Death Note (TV) | Masterpiece | Top notch story, can't wait to see more! |
| Eureka Seven (TV) | ||
| Fullmetal Alchemist (TV) | Very good | A good package, but there's just something missing that I can't put my finger on. |
| Gunslinger Girl (TV) | Good | Watched a few episodes, nothing too exciting yet. Not bad either. |
| Hunter X Hunter (TV 1999) | Excellent | I really enjoyed watching this. I sat through 20 or so episodes of it on one weekend and it was a pure joy. (I watched a Chinese fansub of this). Good story and of course I have a soft spot for characters fighting through stages (i.e. Saint Seiya; Bleach; Fate/Stay Night). |
| Ikkyū-san (TV 1975) | ||
| Love Hina (TV) | Weak | I don't know why I watched this or why it's got such high praises. I really struggled through it. There's barely a plot, I don't find it funny or amusing. The English dub was horrible. etc. etc. |
| Saint Seiya (TV) | Very good | I enjoyed watching this immensely when I was a kid. Good times. However the old series doesn't quite hold up to the test of time. But some of the newer stuff is not bad. (Note: This fits in my own category of "action anime where the hero(s) must fight through one stage after another") |
| Spiral (TV) | Very good | Animation quality is so-so. But I like the story development so far. |
