Thought I should add a reference to help me rate anime.
10 - Incredible. Fly through episodes, wanting to watch the next straight away. Felt a lot of emotion when watching, good ending. I will know when I give a 10.
9 - Same as above except has some glaring flaws that I can't ignore. Still enjoyed it immensely, but something obvious could've been changed about. Simple slice of life/comedy will usually be capped here, because lack of epic emotional moments. May have been masterpiece material the whole way but the ending wasn't satisfying. Shows with shit/lazy animation will also be capped here.
8 - Very good, enjoyed it, may have been addictive but actually technically poor, not enough character development. Might have been average in everything except one aspect where I liked alot. May have been brilliant until something happened in the plot that totally turned me off, maybe something so bad that I had to drop it.
7 - Good, but lazy animation. Studio didn't put much effort in, but something about it kept me watching. Or okay animation but lacking in depth. Something about it was enough to keep me watching to the end, or maybe I dropped it because of limited time.
1-6 - Dropped, probably didn't bother rating. Fundamental concepts I don't agree with, totally bad animation, no hook.

The promo art looked nice, though I haven't seen any of the actual animation. Thanks for reminding me.
I don't know what you'd be into actually, but maybe one of the ones I'm planning to watch you'd be interested in? I dunno.
I'm going to watch Hourou Musuko, which looks really nice and is from Noitamina. (Kuragehime is from it) They haven't had a bad series and they are more original than other channels.
I remember the manga being really depressing but I love its watercolor style so I'll be watching.
The other one is Level E, which looks weird and wacky but I've another show based on a series by the same mangaka (Hunter x Hunter) so I'm checking it out. An alien prince named Baka who's a huge asshole, heh.
Also maybe Beezlebub, delinquent raising a future demon king, hahaha. But shonen these days annoy me more than entertain, so...I don't know.
No! No way I didn't mean that at all! But you still are quite different from the people I hang out with, that's the truth...>.<
Well Vino just saw Chane and he proposes to her, lol. It's totally Baccano-like and I love it, but well sudden is sudden. Not saying that it wasn't cute, not saying that at all, I loved the wedding dress and Vino asking Rachel for advice and everything. It only means I just found the other couples cuter. ^^;;
Mmmm I can tell from all the stuff you've said about yourself, and what you said about the people around you, where you go, etc. your thought patterns are quite different from me and the people who I usually talk to.
Vino and Chane are my least favorite out of the 3 though...but it's pretty obvious from your personality why you like that one the most.
Hating on Ennis? Grrr. GRRRR.
I loved Jacuzzi too. 12 years old? That's quite harsh. I thought it was so awesome he shot all those mafia members while crying at the same time lol. Hilarious and awesome. Also really sweet for him to get an tattoo so Nice won't feel bad after her accident.
But I think their ships? planes? whatever they were called again, are probably one of the most elegant designs for mecha, both in looks and their attacks.
Oh, if you put it that way, yea I see what you mean. I absolutely hate having to see the two love birds go through all the embarrassing and stupid things of love, blushes and the like you mentioned. "Does he like me?" -sigh-
I liked Baccano's romances for that reason. Firo and Ennis, Vino and Chane, Jacuzzi and Nice, none of them go through 10-steps of blushing but we can see they like each other and they all end up together. : P
I've watched a shoujo-ai show called Simoun though, which had a really great story and was quite sad.
LOL, just wait till you get to a certain episode...
Wait wut? Haruhi? Ehhhhh???
Well I was going to watch Toradora and Tatami Galaxy anyway, so I'll see about those two.
Hmm I see. Well for me, not all anime get amazing budget and especially a few years ago, anime just didn't look as good as it does now. Like Aria...T_T. The manga's art is sooooo gorgeous and the anime doesn't compare in that aspect.
Also, I can read much faster than I can watch. The same material will take 25 min. as an episode, but only like 10 minutes as manga.
Oh yea. I adore Dennou Coil's romance. *_* Mmm....sorry I can't think of anything right now. I would like more of such romance too.
Using FMA Brother as an example, its fandom is full of the one of the worst fangirls ever. But FMA: B is something I like, so I don't let it bother me. But yaoi is different. It's something I'm indifferent about, so I can be easily swayed to disliking it.
As a note though, it's mostly yaoi for non-yaoi things I hate. If the characters are actually gay in the actual story, I don't really care.
You're anti manga? lol I actually read a bit of it, but the scans were pretty low quality so I stopped. Don't worry, I'll read GTO or watch it sooner or later.
Yea, Dennou Coil is a family friendly series but it's more Ghibli than pokemon. Plus, I don't feel right showing this to a little kid. There a couple parts that's creepy as hell.
It's alright. I'm used to late replies. All the other people I talk to are really slow or we stopped talking all together.
