This isn't the first time he has retired.

I just finished watching "Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko". I liked it. There were some really funny moments. Good story, interesting plot/concept, it was different and light hearted with humor.

I watched them both. I don't know what to say about "Shuffle", I liked it when I watched it. Cool magic, angels, demons, harem, interesting back stories and character development. Heavy on drama and romance. I thought for sure the guy was going to get stabbed. Speaking of which, have you seen "School Days"? "Kiss Sis is borderline porn. But I have to say I laughed while I watched it. And it is a lot better in my opinion, knowing that they are not blood related. "Ore no Imouto" was awesome up until the last two episodes (episode 14 and 15) of the second season, come on man that's your sister. Kuro Neko was the route I would have went. But Ayase would have been an interesting route too.

I stick to the classics.

Robotech
Akira


And Initial D, of course.

this. except for me it is Robotech, Macross, Initial D, Wangan Midnight, Bubblegum Crisis 2033, 2040 & Crash!, & Great Teacher Onizuka (obviously)...

Others I have enjoyed recently are Sento Yosei Yukikaze, Area 88, Rocket Girls, Moonlight Mile, Planetes, Last Exile, Infinite Stratos, Full Metal Panic, and Burn Up Scramble.
Have Cowboy Bebop sitting here, but have never really been able to get into it so far. :(

I've also been reading the mangas of Over Rev! And will probably start initial D soon.

I have seen most of your list. Your taste is very eclectic, but good. As for GTO, I have it all anime, manga(GTO manga, and GTO early years manga) and the new manga GTO 14 days in Shonan that just finished. Awesome story, Eichi Onizuka is a bad ass, the plot and scenario's are really interesting. Character are all original and interact great. It is absolutely hilarious, lots of laugh out loud moments. Great recommendation.

Finished watching "Kakumeiki Valvraver". I have mixed feelings about it. It is not bad but I can't say it was good either. Because as soon as the good part started, it ended. There is a second season that starts in October(next month). My opinion is wait until the second season is over before you watch it. Same creator as "Code Geass", there is a master strategist who is a bad ass, giant robots, cool level up moments. The main character is a wuss but he is getting better. People die, some you wouldn't expect so it has lots of potential. The second season could make it awesome. Now I get to play the waiting game.

Just watched some episodes of Avatar: Legen of Korra. It's actually pretty good.

Book 2 starts soon ;)

Age is just a state of mind. If you love anime, then who's to stop you from enjoying it? :)

You all aren't Anime fans until you watch multiple seasons of subbed Sailor Moon. :p

LOL. So I guess that makes me an Anime fan. In the 90's there wasn't much of selection you could get of anime series. Sailor Moon was one of the ones you could get.

I ordered anime through a mail order catalog and got my vhs in the mail with Japanese audio English subs. They were just tv recordings that someone added subtitles to. I used to have a lot of these. I only kept a few through out the years as everything swapped over to dvd to blueray. I have the last episodes of Dragonball GT.

When Dragonball Z was really popular over here I had already saw all of it and was telling my friends what would happen next. They were like "Goku is so cool and that Kaoken makes him bad ass". And then I would be like "wait until he turns Super Sayaijin".

I have been watching anime since I was 8. Earlier if you count Voltron and Speed racer.
