I'd also like to see some reviews for older shows, but I agree with other people that I'd really prefer them to be for shows that it's still possible to watch legally.
With that said, a few of my suggestions for things that are still easy to find: Basilisk Birdy the Mighty Haibane Renmei Last Exile Moribito And a bit harder to find: Berserk Blood+ Scrapped Princess |

It's not the Death Note movie, it's the new live action drama adaptation that Crunchyroll started streaming yesterday! I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the review up (although I haven't seen the ep yet).
FLAG is a great hidden treasure that almost nobody has seen. Not sure about its availability, though. Hmm...maybe there can be a vote about classic series based on poster's suggestions and critic interest? |

Yeah, that would be the only way for me to watch Paranoia Agent if I have interest on it, but I don't think that they are encouraging piracy, not even tacitly. They are just doing reviews of something that may be new for some fans of anime, like me! And I'm really looking forward to those reviews. I'm glad that the shows I'll watch are going to be reviewed, and as someone said before me, it's a shame that Shimoneta didn't make the cut because it would've been fun to read its reviews or the comments it would create. A question: is Nagato Yuki-chan get its two final reviews as well? |

Out of curiosity: Is it possible to see the actual percentage results for this poll? I would enjoy being able to see which shows were voted the most and least just to gauge popularity.

I'd like to second Gankutsuou for the classic reviews!
Also, I'm curious what was the bottom of the list, vote-wise, haha. |

Hmm, well keeping suggestions to shows that are 26 eps or less so that your reviewers aren't spending a year or more on a series, I'd be interested in reading weeklies on:
Noir Baccano Haibane Renmei Crest of the Stars Welcome to the NHK Serial Experiments Lain I think any of those shows would give a reviewer plenty to talk about. |

For now, this exercise is being limited to '90s and fresher series. And you'd be surprised how many people around ANN have seen Princess Tutu. |

My figurative hat goes off to the reviewers who do this and have their other jobs. I don't know how they find the time to balance it.

Man, it's been a whiiile since I've seen Paranoia Agent, but I think my memory for it's still pretty good--which is saying something, since I last saw it in middle school. I'm not sure what all this hullabaloo about "encouraging piracy" is about though. A cursory glance through ebay shows a lot of region free versions popping up, both dubbed and subbed, for around $20.
Really looking forward to Nick's reviews!  I find his reviews to be very insightful, and it'll be fun seeing what he makes of that roller coaster of a series. 
EDIT: While I'd also love to see Monster, we did get Theron's "arc" reviews a few years ago, so I dunno if that's a viable candidate. :/ |

I would love to see a episodic review of Natsume Yuujinchou. I don't really know if it's considerd classic but I like to think so. Though it's over 50 episodes if you would review all seasons.

Paul somehow got all of the fun shows! Here's to hoping they can all bring us smiles every week.

Region free/region 0 anime DVDs are almost universally pirated/bootlegged. If I remember correctly, the only company to put out officially-licensed region free (non-hentai) English-dubbed anime DVDs in any significant quantity was Central Park Media. Take a look at the discs. If the series is dubbed into English and is playable on your Region 1 player, there should be FOUR discs, and "Geneon" should be printed on EACH disc. |

Thanks for the info re Death Note. First I heard of it. Still not sure why it's being reviewed among the anime though. But I guess if people are interested, that's what matters.

They did an ANNcast on Haibane not to long ago, so maybe not that one? The other three I left on seem like strong ideas, and maybe I'd even watch Noir along with them since I've never seen it. Crest of the Stars was something I was thinking of earlier, it's a good Sunrise title, a sci-fi that's about as close as you get to Legend of the Galactic Heroes (even though it focuses on a ridiculously small part of one conflict and not a larger overview), and it's probably been about as forgotten as Betterman or Infinite Ryvius by now compared to the likes of Outlaw Star, Escaflowne, or Bebop. I would think that also doing Onii-sama e... would be a strong choice since it's brand new (to the US) and it's a strong Dezaki title full of yuri melodrama.
It is Takahashi's second best mecha series. It's short and to the point and it's definitely different in terms of production. And since no one's ever gonna review VOTOMS; Blue Gender and Gasaraki would never make it; and Layzner, Galient, Dougram, and Mellowlink aren't available, it's probably the best pick outside of doing something not in his typical wheelhouse, like the Phoenix TV series. |
