You could also watch Monster.
Its kind of a psychological thriller and I particularly enjoyed it.

Futakoi Alternative is also a fun short series with plenty of drama.

i want to know why people compare azudaoih with luckystar? the humor in each is completely different. luckystar is more comparable to suzuharu in its humor, its more fanboy/fangirlish than azudaoih is.

also hayate no gotoku references a majority of the popular anime out there. not just TTGL.

and yes, //hack.sign was slow and in the end you find out it was just some otakus playing a MMORPG and passing out from it playing too long.

schooldays was loltastic, its like a huge fuckfest gone wrong.

Azumanga daioh and Lucky star are compared, since they're both comedy, and since they both have a bunch of girls talking about something. Not really that much, but at least Azumanga daioh was very entertaining to watch, and had quite a few funny moments.

Secondly, I already aware that HnG has huge referneces out there. I never said just TTGL..... The references I can name: Code geass, Moetan, conan, TTGL, Excel saga, and a lot more than this as well.

//hack.sign. was lol, since they're in a MMO where they're fighting around 10 seconds per 4 eps.

Schooldays ending wasn't too bad for me. I loled, and saw this coming awhile back.

QUOTE(anime_junkie @ Jun 15 2008, 03:34 AM) Let's see.... long list time. This is just off the top of my head, and I'm assuming you've seen a lot of the "standard stuff," so to speak, so... yeah. Highest recomended titles in Bold.

Anime
----------
G Gundam - BADASS MECH FIGHTS
Turn A Gundam - Another Gundam, but pretty much the best. Very unique and cool.
GaoGaiGar - GOLDION CRUSHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Aria - Slice of Life, very good.
Gunbuster - If you've never seen it, go watch it. NOW. Short, but sweet.
Kaiji (and Akagi) - Awesome as hell moments. A little slow, but so suspenseful it kills.
Black Lagoon - An action trip that really delivers. Good characters, animation, etc.
Sketchbook - Another slice of life. Slower than most, but really cute.
Legend of the Galactic Heroes - Anime at it's finest, right here.
Code Geass - Controversial, but I think it's quite good, aside from certain Sunrise moments.
Hidamari Sketch - Again, slice of life, but one of the funniest I've ever seen. Also, nutbladder.
Gankutsuou - A masterpiece. Absolutely thrilling.
Mushishi - See above.
Kino's Journey - See above.
5cm/s - Movie made me cry like a little girl. Very touching, and visually stunning.
Toshokan Senshou - Currently airing, and one of the only good shows this season. Fun times and action to be had.
Hokuto no Ken - YOU'RE ALREADY DEAD.
Goldenboy - Funny as hell, and one of the best dubs ever.
Shigofumi - Short one, but quite good.

Manga
----------
GTO - Funniest manga ever. Read it. Love it.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - Manliest journey ever. Absolutely AWESOME.
Vinland Saga - Vikings.
Violinist of Hameln - Old school and funny as hell.
Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou - Amazingly relaxing, and incredibly good.
Blame! - Crazy stuff. Very good.
20th Century Boys, Monster, Pluto - All by the same author, and all brilliant. Must reads.
Parasyte - Weird, but good. Great action scenes.
Planetes - Great manga with great characters. And space.

I second Kino (I have the whole boxset, along with the first 9 volumes of the light novel in Korean.)
5 Centemetre per second
Shigofumi
Code geass (Entertaining Plotholes)

Baccano is pretty interesting. Short but sweet. Not drama or anything, but focuses on action and its main plot.

Hmm, comedy anime with drama thats seinen does that exist?

An anime I found amusing was Sunabouzu AKA Desert Punk, word of warning though the humour is extremely crude so its not for everyone. And surprisingly despite being a relativity unknown series that came out of no where it is extremely well animated in my opinion.

Besides that I defiantly recommend:
Black Lagoon
Busou Renkin
Eureka Seven
Kiba
Mnemosyne (Not for the faint of heart but you wanted more mature anime)

Edit: Sorry forgot to mention, Moyashimon another good anime.

No, I want anime with a seinen demographic, not necessarily mature. Rozen Maiden is a seinen, thats a comedy and drama.
