Shinji in Spanish is kind of funny.

Anyways, I've been watching Inu-Yasha and Bleach on Adult Swim. Pretty uninspired stuff so far, IMO.

FLCL has never come on where I live. Eureka 7 was meh, and I've never seen Outlaw Star.

Finished Zeta Gundam, now I'm trying to decide whether to rewatch Lain, Boogiepop Phantom, Haibane Renmei, or get something new (maybe Last Exile, Wolf's Rain, or Paranoia Agent). I'm open to suggestions. :)

Last Exile is a well-crafted show, with some truely impressive CGI battles, and characters you could care about.

I don't think it is the best, but it's pretty well done.

Wha-WHAT? Eureka 7 is pretty good actually. Just skip everything that doesn't have Holland or Dominic and Anemone in it.

Jimbo, I have a feeling that you would totally dig this show.

Higurashi (which so far is chock full of horror and bad ends)
Gurren-Lagann

I started watching Lucky Star, but it was boring.

Thanks guys, I think I'll get Paranoia Agent next. I might just get all 3 at the same time...

I'm currently finishing Diebuster. (Which I like more than Gunbuster thus far. I have mixed feelings about GB, but that's something for a different thread)

Gankutsuou (Despite my original hesitations about it, I'm rather enjoying this series and like many of the differences from the original. However, the book is still better and the intro makes me want to stab my ears when I hear it)

Though I like what I have seen, I have been unable to finish Trigun and Lain. Hopefully I'll be able to finish them soon.

Haha, wrong series. Last I knew, Diebuster wasn't based off a book. No, there I'm talking about Gankutsuou. I should add an extra line between the two to make it clearer.
Oh, I'm also watching Noir, though I`ve only seen the first episode so I can't say if I like it or not yet. The music is good, but I was expecting that.

Updating on http://evageeks.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=80598#80598

Having watched all the NaruTaru anime (I shan't say "finished" because it covers half the manga and then stops dead mid-flow), I've added Gankutsuou to my active list as well. And Gunslinger Girl to the in-tray.

Also Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai, of course.

I got halfway through the first Higurashi but stopped, for whatever reason. Like, last year. Does it get any better?
He was warrior and mystic, ogre and saint, the fox and the innocent, chivalrous, ruthless, less than a god, more than a man. There is no measuring Muad'Dib's motives by ordinary standards. In the moment of his triumph, he saw the death prepared for him, yet he accepted the treachery. Can you say he did this out of a sense of justice? Whose justice, then? Remember, we speak now of the Muad'Dib who ordered battle drums made from his enemies' skins, the Muad'Dib who denied the conventions of his ducal past with a wave of the hand, saying merely: "I am the Kwisatz Haderach. That is reason enough."

The second half includes much more torture along with the bloody violence.
