I have completed both Shana and Ergo Proxy....

Shana is a GREAT series and I cant wait for the next season. The only thing I do wish is that the love interest had developed a bit more (crazy coming from me aint it!) However other than that I found it great. Good storyline, artwork, and development.

Definetly worth watching.

As for Ergo Proxy............................................. .................. I wasnt impressed. It does get signifigantly better towards the end of the series, but you have to get past the other 15-20eps of garbage to get there. I personally find the series too random, think the artwork sucks, and it didint keep me interested. It took me about a month to finish as I had to FORCE myself to watch it. (one of my things, once I start an anime I HAVE to finish, no matter what). As mentioned above tho, the series does get better towards the end.

btw, if you like Shana, also check out Zero no Tsukaima. Its a very similar series type and a GREAT series. The new season is supposed to come out July 14th and I cant wait.
