@OGS93
Yeah, the part with the bird was kind of confusing and all. So was the part set in ancient Japan. But overal the ending really build up towards something great in the end. With 2 very strong scenes near the end (You know, her death and Misuzu running into her mothers arms) =)
But aside from that Air really was good though.
I am really looking forward to watching Kanon soon-ish
Lol spoilers.

Good Choice! I recently finished up the Series..
And I have to say it was a Good Anime with Drama Twists
It made me Tear up a Bit; You won't be dissapointed!
Also, I watched the 4th Episode of Lucky Star last night & found a reference from "Kanon!" as well...

I'm expecting nothing less from Key!
I mean Air, Clannad and Angel Beats made me cry, so I am expecting Kanon to do the same to me XD
On another note, I'm nearing the end of Hidan no Aria, which I must say, I quite like.
It's pretty good, can recommend it if you are into action animes with mysterious-esque plot elements.

Yay, something I've watched before you did. :> (no idea why this is important to me) I can only recommend it, although I don't have a lot to compare it to.
Currently watching... nothing. Not sure what I'll be watching next (whatever it is, it'll be at a slow pace since I'm not that much of an otaku). Hidamari Sketch or Hanamaru Kindergarten, perhaps - something with little conflict, anyway.

Gosick was one of the best written animes I've ever watched.
That one was just like, oh my god.
It was just so good.
Did you enjoy it as much as I did? =D

I did enjoy it, probably as much as you
I was kinda confused at the beginning but I quickly grew to like it.
@WhiteYoshiEgg: Judging from the first episode, I can guess it's gonna be great. I'd compare it to Lucky Star, I guess.
Hanamaru was too cute, I'd probably start with that first.

Watchin Serial Experiments Lain right now. Three episodes in, it's pretty crazy stuff but I'm liking it. It's a bit on the pretentious side but nothing excessive, and it's usually genuinely intelligent rather than psuedophilosophical.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Activity, what?
I started to watch Eden of the East (Higashi no Eden) recently and it's o-k. My friends hyped it up a little too much, and it's not exactly bad (it's actually quite interesting and unique - I'm just a picky bastard).
And I also finished Onegai Teacher, and that was pretty average.
On the manga side, I've been reading... A lot. A lot more than I usually do, but I'm mainly going through all of Junji Ito's stuff first since I really enjoyed Gyo and Uzumaki. (also reading iris zero, medaka box, Gou-dere, To Love-Ru Darkness and acchi kocchi)
@Gosick conversation I missed: I dropped it while it was airing last year at around episode 14 or 15(?), is it worth picking back up? Did it get really good near the end?

Yes OGS, I recommend you to finish Gosick, the last couple episodes are heavy character development and the end gives you a real nice tearjerker.
Eden of the East is also pretty cool, nice concept and all even though very weird.
Anyway, started watching Another a few days ago, five episodes in and I'm loving it already. <3 Really well made stuff, sucks you right in from the beginning.

I just finished Another, it's an excellent horror/mystery anime with a great atmosphere and more then a touch of insanity, especially in the last two episodes. One of the things that I like so much about it is that it is a true mystery story; in the sense that the clues necessary to solve the mystery are given to the watcher slowly throughout the show, so it's possible for them to solve the mystery before the characters do. This isn't something that I've seen very much in anime, and I'm deeply impressed with it.
...But yeah, I'd definitely consider Another worth watching, just keep in mind that people die a lot in pretty bloody and brutal ways. I'd also recommend Mirai Nikki, I read the manga a while ago and loved it. I was very excited to hear that they were making an anime adaptation of it. Although I'm way behind in watching the anime, from what I've seen (about half the episodes), it is extremely faithful to the manga: to the point where a lot of the dialogue is the same, word for word. It's also got great animation and music, so yeah, that's another one that I strongly suggest.

I've finally been able to watch a little more anime... Rosario + Vampire this time!
And...holy shit, this anime. It's just brilliant. It's a perfect blend of romance, comedy, seriousness, and fanservice, and it just seems to pull it off so greatly, it's just completely amazing. (And Moka is just <3)
I'm currently only seven episodes in, but I already think it just might be my new most favorite anime. :3

I started watching Shin Chan a couple weeks back, and for some reason, I am HOOKED. It's so badly drawn and crudely hilarious, and yet...I cannot stop watching it. It's like South Park, Family Guy, The Simpsons and Robot Chicken all went to Japan, found a Japanese stripper that was also a stand up comedian following in the footsteps of Robin Williams, mated her in the roughest fashion and had a child cartoon with her, Shin Chan would be it. The superheroes are hilarious (Action Bastard voiced by Troy Baker, WOO!), the episodes containing normal events (or as normal as they can get) poke good fun at all the bad sides of every day life, Hiro--Shin's father--works a dead end silverware sales job and gets drunk every night, and Shin has Eric Cartman written all over him, but more...original. My end statement?
ASS DANCE, ASS DANCE, ASS DANCE!!!!
Seriously, though, check it out. You'll love the humor.
"Any scars, Lollipop?"
"Only emotional ones! ^^"

I just did something i do like twice a year; I watched an entire anime series.
This time around it was Angel Beats, my friend recommended it to me, as to which i normally ignore him because the stuff he tells me to watch is...let's say nfsw. I really liked this one though. I like the anime in which they aren't shoving women's breasts or asses into the shot every five seconds, and this was very cleaver.
Something that i seem to hate is how when a person has reached a point of reading/hearing/playing stories, everything becomes a bit predictable. So I enjoy something that is capable of misleading the viewer yet still make sense. I feel that this one was able to do that well.
well, i must hide away for six months then i'll come back and attempt to search for another series that's suitable.
(Previous shows: Eureka Seven, FLCL, Kekkaishi, The world god only knows)
