Ah! My Goddess: The MovieVery goodMany characters in the movie not in the OVA.
Ai Yori Aoshi (TV)DecentBeginning and end episodes of the series VERY different from the rest. Much fanservice.
Akira (movie)GoodStandard fare for all!
Angelic Layer (TV)GoodGood series. Battles provide nice counterpoint to romance and other stuff.
Banner of the Stars (TV)MasterpieceFollows Crest of the Stars nicely. Excellent for grand drama.
Banner of the Stars II (TV)Very goodNot as good as Banner or Crest. Almost ignores Lafiel.
Banner of the Stars III (OAV)Excellent
Bastard!! (OAV)
Battle Angel (OAV)ExcellentStandard fare for all!
Blood: The Last Vampire (movie)ExcellentThis movie is definately a rush. It's a great supernatural horror flick, even if it does switch back and forth between English and Japanese.
Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040 (TV)Very goodGood series. Thought provoking, in some ways. The plot takes a few nice twists here and there.
Chobits (TV)Decent"Magical robot girlfriend" series. Better plot and art than most, though.
Cowboy Bebop (TV)ExcellentWhat can I say?
Cowboy Bebop: The MovieExcellentAgain, what is there to be said?
Crest of the Stars (TV)MasterpieceSpace opera. Grand drama. I'm hoplessly addicted.
DNA² (TV)DecentVery entertaining. Lots of fanservice, with an interesting plot.
DNA² (OAV)So-soNice, but mangles the plot of the series.
Dragon Half (OAV)Very goodClassic humor, but much of it makes little sense.
El-Hazard: The Magnificent World (OAV)Very goodClassical stuff. Well worth it for anybody.
Elf Princess Rane (OAV)GoodLike Dragon Half, but makes even less sense.
FLCL (OAV)Very goodFLCL. 'Nuff said.
Full Metal Panic! (TV)ExcellentSoooooooooo much fun. Between the mecha battles and the romantic hijinks, it fun for most of the family!
Ghost in the Shell (movie)MasterpieceThis is a classic for a reason. It really makes you think on what humanity is.
Golden Boy (OAV)Very ecchi at times, but all-around fun.
GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka (TV)Very goodVery amusing, to say the least. Overall plot is weak, but you stop caring very quickly.
.hack//SIGN (TV)GoodI lost track of the plot, but I suspect the series did too.
Hand Maid May (TV)So-so"Magical robot girlfriend" thing again. Average, with extra fanservice.
Happy Lesson (TV)DecentEntertaining, but not for everyone. Each episode deals with its own variety of contrived drama.
Happy Lesson (OAV)So-soIn some ways like a summary of the series.
Hellsing (TV)Very goodAlucard for all!
Interlude (OAV)
Iria - Zeiram the Animation (OAV)Very goodA bit of fanservice, but a solid OVA.
Kiddy Grade (TV)Very goodVery entertaining, but the plot later on becomes convoluted and confusing.
Kite (OAV)
Love Hina (TV)GoodClassic formula shounen. But then, Love Hina helped establish the formula.
Love Hina Again (OAV)WeakCould be a lot better. Seems like a cheap excuse to sell more stuff, but not all bad.
Love Hina Spring Special - I Wish Your DreamGoodSo-so. Could have been MUCH better.
Love Hina X'mas Special - Silent EveDecentWell executed holiday flavor here.
Lunar Legend Tsukihime (TV)Very goodThis... This is thing of beauty... Excuse me while I go cry in the corner...
Martian Successor Nadesico (TV)Very goodStandard fare. Plot gets convoluted.
Martian Successor Nadesico: The Motion Picture - Prince of DarknessDecentNot as good as the series.
Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok (TV)DecentThis show is very amusing at times, but at others they overdo the transformation bit. I mean, how many times can a 10 y/o girl become a 20-something lady and attempt to seduce the same guy? Not that that's the actual plot, just a running gag.
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (movie)Very goodVery nice eco-preservation story.
Neon Genesis Evangelion (TV)Very goodKnown to all.
Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death & Rebirth (movie)Good'Nuff said.
Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion (movie)Very goodDitto.
Ninja Scroll (movie)ExcellentExcellent movie. Lots of action, with a few rather moving bits.
Ocean Waves (movie)Very goodThis is a very good Ghibli movie. A romance of sorts, all set in a flashback.
Oh My Goddess! (OAV)MasterpieceClassic. Good anime for all!
Outlaw Star (TV)ExcellentSooo much fun..... But the plot is a little spotty.
Passage of the Stars - Birth (special)MasterpieceExcellent prequel to Crest of the Stars. Gives you a lot of insight into Lafiel.
Pilot Candidate (TV)ExcellentGreat series, mix of action, romance (little hidden), and drama.
Pilot Candidate (OAV)ExcellentNice OVA. Provides background on a guy who dies in the series.
Please Teacher! (TV)Very goodFun little series. Fanservice heavy, but there IS a plot.
Please Teacher! (OAV)Very goodPart of it is one step away from hentai. But fun, reagrdless.
Please Twins! (TV)So-soThis series is lacking any number of things, but the genuine emotions temper the contrived plot, and the fanservice and humor help make it tolerable.
RahXephon (TV)MasterpieceSo... very.... addictive.....
Read or Die (OAV)ExcellentAbout a kickass absentminded book addicted lady with power over paper.
Record of Lodoss War (OAV)ExcellentFantasy epic with a love story embedded within.
Record of Lodoss War: Chronicles of the Heroic Knight (TV)DecentSequel to the OVA, but nowhere near as good.
S-CRY-ed (TV)MasterpieceLike CB, only darker with better plot.
Scrapped Princess (TV)ExcellentThis series, IMHO, is destined to become a classic. Really.
Shadow Skill (TV)
Stellvia (TV)GoodInteresting series. Shojo in space that works.
Tenchi Forever!: The MovieDecentVery different from the other Tenchi stuff. Not as good.
Tenchi Muyo! (OAV 1/1992)ExcellentExcellent.
Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki (OAV 2/1994)ExcellentTenchi OVA. 'Nuff said.
Tenchi the Movie - Tenchi Muyo in LoveGoodIt could be better, but it's the best Tenchi movie.
Tenchi The Movie 2 - The Daughter of DarknessGoodSeems a little contrived at times, but solid, mostly.
This Ugly Yet Beautiful World (TV)
Vampire Hunter D (OAV)MasterpieceClassic.
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (movie)MasterpieceExcellent sequel to a classic.
Vandread (TV)Very goodVERY fun series. Heavy on the fanservice, but the plot and the mecha keep things interesting.
Vandread: The Second Stage (TV)Very goodContinues from first series. Just as good.
Video Girl Ai (OAV)GoodAnime for the masses. Classic romance story.
(The) Vision of Escaflowne (TV)DecentCould be better. Battle scenes are nice, but plot could be a LOT better.
Witch Hunter Robin (TV)ExcellentExcellent. Must see.
