Yin-Yang
In case you didn't know, volume 4 comes out tomorrow.
Yes, I'm pretty well aware of this. Negima! Vol.6 (DVD) also comes out tomorrow.

This is the stuff from Japan that I'm watching right now. And they're all awesome!
Onegai My Melody
Yes, I'm not kidding. I went into the thing expecting some little childrens' Hello Kitty spinoff that I'd watch once. But instead, OMM is an anime so twisted at times that Naota from FLCL would pull them aside and tell them to get a grip (and I don't say that lightly). Let's put it this way. In the first episode, the girl's violin tries to EAT her! And I believe that they accidentally destroy the world in another episode. Even stranger yet, this anime's really fun to watch.
Otogi Jushi Akazukin
I don't know what it is, but there's something about bizarro Disney worlds that's just appealing. Seeing Cinderella as the main enemy is just so new and refreshing for some reason.
Boukenger
Live action, but it's Japanese-made. You'll know this one as Power Rangers: Operation Overdrive. But this is the strangest Sentai I've ever seen. There's still five of them, with a sixth one getting added later. But come on! The robot uses a pickaxe and shovel as its main weapons! That's one of the most original thing's I've seen Sentai do in recent years! I won't say much about the villains, since they'll probably be changed in the US version, but if you get a chance see the Japanese version. Not as much CG in this one either (thankfully), and it's used well where it is.
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon
Live action Sailor Moon! Nonbelievers, beware. Watch one episode of this and you'll be hooked. Though the show looks cheesy on the outside, the plot's probably one of the best I've come across in awhile. Even if you've seen the Anime, it keeps you guessing. And yes, it's quite different from the Anime. Oh yeah, did I mention they did a live performance too? (really good music, and it gets really funny when Jadeite, Nephrite and Kunzite get in on the action) Now I gotta go. Beryl's flirting with the four knights again.
Madan Senki Ryukendo
This is another Sentai-like show from Japan, but with a bit of a more serious edge to it. Also, they've done away with giant robots in this, which is actually a good thing here since they get a new attack in practically every episode. Some of the attacks will make your jaw drop.
Red Garden
Very confusing show, I don't know if there's even a good guy and bad guy anymore. I wish we could see more the girl's kicking butt action instead of them crying, angsting, and talking about the same old thing. But, the idea is very original.
Gantz did a better job with it from what I saw of both series... Ironically, Gonzo animated that as well.
I dropped Red Garden at about episode nine. The fact that the animators at Gonzo believed all Americans to either be blondes or have dyed their hair purple or white was bugging me, not to mention the inclusion of random singing bits in the already lackluster story.

Boukenger was eh for me.
The only great thing was El' Rockin' Guitar Blue and the henshin scenes where they slide phones on metal and **** like a Teck-Deck.
Oh, and Black's teeth were hilarious.
Makes the English teeth look awesome.
One Piece:
Teh lawal humour, but at the moment I am at episode 237 and it is a bit of a sad part. Hopefully it is going to be a happy ending for this part of the story =(
I really like this anime, especially Tony Tony Chopper, a Reindeer with a Blue nose He is just so funny when he gets complements. xD
Bleach
My favourite anime and currently I am at episode 113. I still have to watch to epi's but I don't like waiting for one epi every week, so I'll just watch One Piece and wait for Bleach to have several episodes again so I can watch them in a row.
My favourite character is KON (King of Newyork, lol ). He is the most funny ehh.. thing! =x that is in Bleach.
Naruto
And I mean the new season. Though I did not watch them yet, with the same reason I am not watching Bleach now, I think this will be fun to watch just like the origional (non filler) Naruto episodes. =)
Shouen Trinity...
Original.
Nothing more original than Bleach.
Except Yu Yu Hakusho.
I mean, Yusuke owned Ichigo as the trouble young teen who has to kill demons when something weird happens out of nowhere.
Yusuke didn't have a big sword.
But Kuwabara's was good enough to make Ichigo cry.
And really, at least Kuwabara worked for his sword.
Kuwabara magically got his sword after stealing a guy's wood.
