| Aeon Flux (U.S. TV) | | |
| Ah My Buddha (TV) | | Looks like good mindless ecchi fare for workouts/train rides. |
| Allison & Lillia (TV) | | This looks to be good. A Miyazaki-esque adventure story with nice art, appealing characters designs and lots of flying. |
| Aqua Age (TV) | | Another quiet, sweet girl-growing-up story |
| Aria - The Natural (TV) | | |
| Candy Boy (ONA) | | |
| (Le) Chevalier D'Eon (TV) | | This looks like a really cool story, but it's on the back burner for now. |
| Chiko, Heiress of the Phantom Thief (TV) | Excellent | This is a good series, and I'm not just saying that because Aya Hirano is in it. She does a good job, too--there are hints of Haruhi in her voice but it's much more low-key. Because of the voice, it's hard not to see bits of Haruhi's personality in Chiko--the bravery, intelligence and determination, without the brashness and egotism. :) |
| Cromartie High School (TV) | | So far it's completely stupid and absolutely hilarious. |
| Daphne in the Brilliant Blue (TV) | | Action and fanservice with a good leavening of humor. Looks like the story could develop in some interesting directions. |
| Destiny of the Shrine Maiden (TV) | | The first episode didn't grab me, but enough people seem to like it that I may give it another chance. |
| Ergo Proxy (TV) | | Dark and dystopian for sure. I like the character designs and animation and it'll be interesting to see where it goes. |
| Final Approach (TV) | | A short series of 15-minute episodes. Not the most original premise in the world, but it's done reasonably well so far and the animation is pretty good. |
| Girl's High (TV) | | It's all about the panties |
| Glass Maiden (TV) | | This is nothing super-special, but has held my interest so far. The animation is well-done and the jazzy soundtrack is quite pleasant. |
| Haruka Nogizaka's Secret (TV) | | |
| Hidamari Sketch × 365 (TV) | | |
| Human Crossing (TV) | | Very realistic, down-to-earth one-episode stories. Quite enjoyable and thought-provoking so far. |
| ItaKiss (TV) | | This seems derivative, but the manga it's based on is actually old, so it's not so derivative. :) |
| Lamune (TV) | | |
| Library War (TV) | | Kind of a weird premise, but looks pretty good. The main character is very spunky and fun. |
| Looking Up At The Half-Moon (TV) | | |
| Macross Frontier (TV) | | Kick-ass space battles, mechs, stunning animation and music, and the Macross universe. What's not to like? I'm watching the original series at the same time, so I'm starting to get a lot of the references to the old show. |
| Mushi-Shi (TV) | | Interesting, quiet, slow-paced |
| Nodame Cantabile (TV) | | This looks as if it'll be quite good. Has a Honey&Clover-ish feel (not surprisingly since it's the same studio). |
| Noein - to your other self (TV) | | This looks quite good so far. Neat SF/alternate universe premise. |
| Psychic Squad (TV) | | I checked this out because Aya Hirano is in it, but it's growing on me. You definitely don't want to take it too seriously... |
| S.A (TV) | | This isn't particularly original, but the chemistry between the main characters is very good, and I think it'll be an enjoyable show. |
| Shion no Oh (TV) | Very good | This would be even cooler if it were about Go. But that's been done. :) The setting and atmosphere are familiar if you've seen Hikaru no Go, but it's a very different type of story. Looks good so far. |
| Sola (TV) | | This looks interesting. Not quite sure what the story's going to be, but the animation and the acting are pretty good so far. |
| (The) Story of Saiunkoku (TV) | Excellent | This looks to be really really good--I love the characters and the plot has more twists than a strand of DNA. Pity Geneon went out of business and the rest of the series probably won't be released in the US. |
| (The) Telepathy Girl Ran (TV) | | Nice art, good voice actors, interesting premise, BAD writing. Worth watching so far just for the seiyuu. |
| To Love-Ru (TV) | | Looks like a cross between Girls Bravo and Urusei Yatsura. Remains to be seen whether it'll go anywhere original. The male lead isn't too annoying and the fanservice isn't bad. |
| Toka Gettan: The Moonlight Lady Returns (TV) | | Well animated, very confusing plot until you realize the gimmick. Probably will finish at some point. |
