Regardless of what you're interested in, I'm just going to start rattling off anime I enjoyed. Your appreciation for Eureka Seven, one of my favorite anime, gets you my time here.

Psycho Pass (season one is way better than season two, but season two is still okay)
Baka & Test (I just found this funny as all hell)
Nanatsu no Taizai (my favorite action anime from last season)
Absolute Duo (another good anime from last season)
World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman (see above)
Yona of the Dawn (last season was just a good one for anime)
Yu Yu Hakusho (an older anime series, but great action with a good story, though the last arc is a bit lacking)
Claymore (women with swords and monsters)
High School DxD (funny, surprisingly decent action, and tits everywhere)

That's everything off the top of my head that I can think of, though I've seen so, so much more than that. I need to start keeping a list.

Harems are never decent. They get even worse when there's ecchi. Don't recommend DxD.

lol I had a lot of fun with DxD. It isn't brilliant by any means, but I really didn't find it difficult to watch. Generally if I can get through an anime without abandoning it halfway through or taking an extended break from it, I find it worth recommending to some degree. I mean, if harem anime isn't your thing, okay, but that doesn't mean I won't recommend one so that somebody else can discover if it really works for them or not.

To love-ru in general. :)


No. To Love Ru is shit.

To quote myself from two years ago:

It sounds like the whole battle anime malarky just isn't your thing and you prefer the more 'thoughtful' anime

If you liked Clanned than I recommend watching Angel Beats, Air and Kanon which are in the same mold. They're from the same studio if I remember correctly. So you'll have your heartstrings played with.

Chobits is another romance anime which is good. It was the first anime I watched that wasn't Pokemon or Digimon and it found to be really enjoyable. REC and Kids on the Slope are other ones which I thought were really good.

To more 'serious' stuff, Cowboy Bebop is a must watch. Genuinely excellent viewing. Great Teacher Onizuka was absolutely fantastic. A delinquent turned good becomes a teacher to a troubled class. It is over dramatic at times but hilarious and at times quite moving. The two Full Metal Panic main series were good though borderline batshit. It is a mecha anime but I enjoyed it and I usually don't like Mecha anime. Persona 4 the anime was a good adaptation of the game with a good blend of the main story and comedy.

There's couple of mystery shows I suggest as well. Hyouka is a recent one which is a mix between mystery and slice of life and I thought was really really good. It was a strong anime. Heaven's Memo Pad was one I enjoyed a lot. Spiral is another I really enjoyed for the most part. It wasn't perfect but it was a perfect remedy to the generic stuff. The story and premise was good for the most part.


For comedy, I whole-heartily suggest Full Metal Panic Fumoffu which is absolutely hilarious, its a spin off of misadventures from the main FMP series and it is a joy to watch. The Irresponsible Captain is sci fi comedy and was absolutely hilarious, I was really surprised how good it was. School Rumble and Working were also pretty good.

Watch Monster and Baccano!. Wash your hands of anime afterwards because it's downhill from there.

I love both Monster and Baccano!, but even if they are quite different, if I was pushed to choose one I would say Monster is quite the superior product.
I didn't mention Monster because it doesn't seem to match the OPs taste (based on his list) and he was kind of negative towards Baccano! before.

Thinking again about it, perhaps I misjudged his tastes, and only because Monster is just a fucking piece of art I will attach the VIZ promo video:

Pretend Bleach ends after season 2 and it's a good anime.

I don't know why, for some reason I decided to waste my time with that PoS when I was younger.
I watched 20 episodes, and then just started to read the manga, then it all become so generic shounen PoS (a la DBZ) after their journey to (I don't even remember shit) land of death and back after which everybody and their dog were Shinigamis and had gigantic blades.... Felt like a typical DBZ next boss is OP, generic power up formula, and I am too old for that shit.
And... Well... Actually I think I have mostly blocked Bleach, and even if I remember traces here and there the only thing that stands clear in my memory is that it was BS.
(Same applies to that Naruto PoS, from which I don't know why the hell I read around 27 volumes when 27 volumes was all that was published and I hated it while I read it... WHY WAS I SUCH A MASOCHIST?)

Well if you dont like Shōnen you dont like it theres nothing i can do about that.
Calling them pos is undeserved though, no one is forcing you to watch it and both had great first arcs.

I consider FMA: Brotherhood the summit of Shounen, and the way a good shounen should be.
I don't say I hate shounen, I just hate cheap shounen.

EDIT: I should be honest and accept that it is also a matter of me going out of the target demographics, as there is also shounen series that I enjoyed when I was younger and I couldn't stand today at all (Saint Seiya, Dragon Ball, Ranma, 3x3 Eyes... etc), I would say that I can't enjoy dumb/kiddish shounen anymore (but things as e.g. Future Boy Conan and to some degree Slayers I still can enjoy... for whatever reason).
