    Try G Gundam, Rurouni Kenshin, Samurai Champloo, GunGrave, Hajime no Ippo(boxing pretty good show i loved it), Claymore (doesn't really have a male main character, but fighting makes it worth it), Tenjou Tenge (fighting is bad ass). Try some of those and let me know how it goes.

    Well I was never a big Gundam fan, but when I saw G Gundam I freakin' lost it. That series is so rediculous it isn't even funny. lol

    Yozakura Quartet, (downloaded 1st episode, have not watched)

    ef_-_a_tale_of_melodies, (dl)

    Kurosh*tsuji,(dl, filter edited it out lolol)

    Vampire Knight Guilty(downloaded the 1st season but never watched it),

    KUROZUKA,(waiting for someone to sub it, but from the reviews it sounds like they made it not as dark as the manga so i doubt it will hold my interest)

    CHAOS;HEAD(looks dark, you have any info ran? ),

    Michiko to Hatchin, (maybe

    gundam 00 (seems really generic but i am going to watch it anyway because it is gundam :P),

    detroit metal city (i really like it, maybe it is because i am into music and it pokes fun at alot of stereotypes)

    Currently Watching

    Ghost Hunt (Stupid title but a decent series so far.)
    Shakugan no Shana (Still haven't finished it for some reason.)
    Burst Angel (Meh, it's okay.)
    Bamboo Blade (Kendo focused harem anime. Woot!)
    Elfen Lied (For about the 6th time.)
    Strike Witches (A new favorite series. Still waiting on Ep.12 though.)
    Kodomo no Jikan (Pedo humor, but pretty entertaining. Watching for the 2nd time)

    Not a lot on my plate right now for some reason.

    I have a question. What other series are well drawn like Gundam 00? I like series like Code Geass the best, I think. Some of the older series are just too sloppy. They also need to be interesting, of course.

    I like a variety of stories, but dislike the old 70s/80s cartoon look. They look almost out of focus.

    gantz(good art with a manga storyline that is still good), air gear(wacky shonen anime) , seirei no moribito ((very nice art, not bad story)ran, help me with the spelling lol)

    but the series i would really check out over all of those is Freedom it is a 7 episode ova with a great story and the character and mecha designer from akira and steamboy. It one of my favorite series. has anyone else seen it?

    in short, WATCH FREEDOM

    Toradora is really going to be a series worth keeping up with. Fans of Zero no Tsukaima and Shakugan no Shana will be quite pleased with it.

    Thanks for telling me about those two series, I looked them up and they look interesting. It will give me something to watch while I wait for the new episodes of Toradora.

    It's one of the ones that I've started following, but it isn't very interesting so far. Treid to watch EF, but first 5 mins were too boring.

    Following so far for this season:
    Toradora
    Ga-rei Zero
    Gundam 00
    Yozakura Quartet
    Vampire Knight Guilty
    Tales of the Abyss
    Earl and Fairy

    On another note, Death Note 2 - The Last Name (live-action) is playing tonight and tomorrow night at the theatre. I'm trying to go tonight to catch it.

    I started watching Claymore again over the weekend. Once you get past the weird artstyle it's actually pretty bad@ss.

    i hear you on that, the 1st time i watched it my jaw dropped multiple times when i thought the scope couldnt get much bigger lololol. but overall i thought it was something different that the story developed differently than most anime (SPOILER(sp? lol) below for anyone who has not watched it)






















    when they beat the king and took over the city normally that would be the end of an anime. (i also liked how gurren kept getting bigger lol, i found it more of a comedy than anything)

    Well, it is a comedy. Guren Laggan is basically a spoof on everything that is shonen anime. Big guns, giant robots, scantily clad busty girls, flower eyed lolis (literally), all thrown together for one giant failfest. The series is a joke unto itself and fans of series such as Excel Saga and FLCL will probably enjoy it. It was just a bit too idiotic for my tastes.

    but unlike most spoofs guren laggan went way over the top with the story imo.

    (raises had as resident gundam junkie)

    code gaess has been pretty popular and honestly was not bad.

    gundam 00 is the new gundam series but it seems sub-par thus far.

    a new macross just aired not to long ago.

    if you made it all the way through gundam wing, you might like gundam seed.
