-Sayonara Solitia (Chrno Crusade)Chrno Crusade was one of the first animes I actually tried to watch as it came out on digisubs, and thusly holds a special place in my heart. Sadly, the show (in true GONZO fashion) fell flat on it's face towards the end, ruining the story and it's excellent premise and fun characters. Luckily, something that wasn't spoiled by the lame ending was the shows ending theme. Sad, emotional j-pop tune that just fits well with the show.
-Butter-Fly (Digimon)I fully admit that Digimon is a totally stupid, bullshit kids cartoon. And yet, in the same way as many other shows that aren't good at all, I like it. Probably stems from growing up on the super huge wave of Pokemon-like shows. Hell, I even watched half of the show IN JAPANESE just because. I dunno. The opening is legit though. It always totally confused me why they skipped out on using this OP in the English version of the show and went for the bullshit song they ended up with.
-The World Without Logos (Hellsing)Yeah, you could basically copy-paste the story from Chrno Crusade, and it'd work here. Awesome show right at the beginning, then suddenly not so much. Luckily, I've discovered the manga recently, and it's totally worth checking out. A bit pricey (13 dollars), but that's Dark Horse for you. Anyway, I have a playlist on my iPod by the name of "If I Was A Chain-Smoking Gunslinger/Judo Expert/Robot Pilot And Had Many Opportunities To Walk In Slow Motion, This Would Be My Soundtrack". That about sums this song up.
-Bara wa Utsukushiku Chiru (Rose of Versailles)This show actually isn't a bad show. By all acounts, it's totally great. Dezaki and Sugino worked on the show. It's old school shojo. The art style and historical fiction concept are both awesome. It was a huge influence on one of my favorite animes of all time, Shojo Kakumei Utena. Unfortunately, my torrent program screwed up the 10 GB+ download after days of excitedly waiting to finally watch the show. This was lame.
