exactly.  granted it doesn't help that for a very long time the only anime that made it to the Western world was shonen/mecha crap - which are genres - but it's goddamn 2010 and you can buy The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya in best buy.

i watched Howl's Moving Castle the other day and while i admit i was rather drunk i absolutely hated it.  well, "hated" is a strong word, but there's so much "oh look isn't this so weird and nonsensical" shit in it that had me wondering if i was supposed to be laughing at it or if it was supposed to be some kind of deeply symbolic anime equivalent of Finnegan's Wake.

jimbunny:
Sometimes it felt like, through the morass of incomprehensibility, there was magnificent truth shining just out of reach. I thought for a moment that I was in the grips of some cosmic joke, crafted - no, revealed - by an obscure master. As I lay in the darkness, illuminated by the pale, flickering light of the screen, reality seemed to me a thin thing.

pharmmajor:
Here are a few I'd recommend:

- Case Closed
- Pani Poni Dash
- Those who Hunt Elves
- Paranoia Agent
- Darker than Black
- Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (skip the "Endless Eight" arc, though)

Tom:
Look, instead of just listing names you could write/ctrl-V a blurb or half paragraph recommendation at least.

Tom:
Otherwise it's just a stupid post, it may seem like you're padding your post-count.
