Some licensed stuff: Niea 7 (long out of print I think, Pioneer released it in '04) King of Bandits Jing TV + OVA AD Police (sorta prequel to BG Crisis 2040) AD Police Files (based on original BG Crisis/Crash) Parasite Dolls (spinoff of ADP) Animation Runner Kuru/romi I + II(spelling is weird in anime databases, but it's a funny look at actually making anime) Arjuna (Sort of an ecologically minded sci-fi tale) Le Portrait de Petite Cossette (sort of a dark drama/fantasy, and is also long out of print too) Possibly unlicensed: Rozen Maiden series (two TV seasons + OVA) (Weird little fantasy set in the modern day about a bunch of goth-loli dolls who come to life. Artsy to the extreme, I guess) Unlicensed: Shinigami no Ballad (OVA series about a female shinigami named Momo) Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora (TV series about an ill high school boy who meets and falls in love with a terminally ill girl) Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight! (Sort of a slice o life comedy/drama about a very strange student council president and her underlings) That's all I can think off the top of my head. A lot of the licensed things may be hard to find legally, as they may be out of print or had low print runs to begin with. Hope that helps.

Finding good unlicensed action shows and horror/mystery/experimental stuff to balance things out is not trivial. So if you watch anything fun that fits that sort of dark or artsy mood, I'd be happy to read your thoughts. For starters I'm thinking I might try Persona ~trinity soul~...

I've been watching anime for about six years now, so I can recommend stuff from most of the genres that should be entertaining at the very least, if not high art. As for the header text, yeah I need to fix it, but I don't have the time to go digging into the header template to change the color coding for the text.

These kinds of summaries make my life super easy. I have a single formatting comment -- your blog looks very nice, and the logo fits the theme -- but the blue title text and off-green byline simply don't jump out from the logo enough to be easily readable on my monitor. I'm not sure what the best way would be to fix this but it kinda drives me nuts. Yay for helping me select shows for my anime club. These kinds of summaries make my life super easy.
