Am I the only one here not into anime? :[ It was cool until everything started to seem unoriginal, boring and predictable. I'm more into original art styles. Well if it counts for anything, I sort of track Hoshi no Kaabii. That's about as close as it gets. >____> Kirby is too darn cute for his own good.

I should put in an update here. I've finished Aa! Megami-sama and Arjuna.
Aa! Megami-sama, aka Ah/Oh My Goddess! turned out surprisingly fun. I was expecting a lot of stupid fanservice and comedy, but the fanservice is hardly there, and the comedy wasn't all that bad. It's certainly not perfect (Belldandy is a little too domestic and naïve), but a whole lot better than I expected.
The second season is just as good as the first. Urd and Skuld get more character development and become more likeable, Belldandy and Keiichi stay the same. The romance doesn't progress at all, but the comedy/story is still fun to watch. There's a bit more fanservice, but still not as bad as I'd feared originally. Overall, this is a series I can recommend to anyone.
Arjuna wasn't so great. The animation is quite good, but the story gets mired in lots of exposition, and rather preachy exposition at that. I'm not averse to environmental messages in anime, but this one takes it to an extreme, and mixes in some controversial other things as well. Pity, because some aspects of the story were decent. Yoko Kanno's music is nice as well, but as usual the quality varies.
Someone should've told me Macross Frontier hadn't finished airing yet before I started it. Two more weeks to go. I've watched most of the rest of the Macross franchise now, so I'll post an overview when I'm done.
I just started two anime that have been on my to-watch list for a long time, Utawarerumono and Iria - Zeiram. I-Z looks like it'll be short but fun. Utawarerumono might be a bit shounen for my taste.
