Vision of Escaflowne the movie and the TV series have a very different tone, just to let you know. The movie is more serious and darker.

The ending is more "complete". But things get ugly, and it is still -very- open to interpretation. I wasn't very keen on it, but I suppose it is original.

At the moment I am catching Naruto weekly. Not much time for anything else.

There is one anime I really appreciate the art (perhaps more than the story) is Ayashi No Ceres. I find the drawing absolutely stunning (*both* the male and female characters).

I also recommend GTO as someone previously mentioned. Great comedy drama. The "Live Action" version is more heavy on drama which you may or may not prefer.

This is pretty well known, but Inuyasha also has a good balance of action, comedy and light romance.

Tis is just the thing I love in anime. It mixes different genres so well. Action, drama, adventure, romance and so on. I've never seen any tv-show which could do the same thing.

Berserk and FMA mixed different genres best (of what I've seen) and that's why they're one of my favourite anime series.

I would also greatly recommend Neon Genesis Evangelion. Incredible anime, watched the entire thing plus the ending movie in about 3 days (whereas with other animes I've watched I progress at glacial pace).

The series ending is incredibly bizarre and (IMHO) bad for various reasons such as the fact that it was done on a budget of 50 yen and as such 90% of it consists of either still shots or bad crayon or marker drawings. The movie ending is what the series ending was supposed to be and is, IMHO, suitable for the rest of NGE, even though it is even more bizarre than the series ending.

Right now, going to start on .hack // SIGN.

Hope it is nothing like the first one, that was one of worst anime related games including craptastic doujin games like fate/sword dance. Ayanami Ikusei Keikaku wasnt too bad, altho there was some inconsistency in the drawing style and the gameplay was quite tedious

Full Moon Wo Saga****e - A little cute at first, but i was hooked after a few episodes. The Music imo was what set the series apart and made it addicting to watch. The storyline is deep and your heart just goes out to Mitsuki. 52 episodes in all and totally worth it. 5 stars in my book, i even went out and got the soundtrack to it.

Bleach is amazing, and Naruto is pretty good too, but too much damn filler episodes at this point.
SPOILER ALERT: O yea, just for the fun of it, in Bleach, Aizen is a bad guy. But I guess whoever watches it already know.
