And it probably helps if you like lolis.

Hmm...I don't know if I got as far as ep.7, but it definitely starts off as a rather predictable and formulaic fight-of-the-week show.

Hey, I liked the Conan movie.
I wasn't around for Trigun or Outlaw Star because I was eating dinner, but they are in my top 5 anime series/OVAs.
I would like to see more Angelic Layer.
Keaton seemed pretty good.
Abenobashi wasn't as good as I remembered it and Excel Saga was better than I remembered it, but Abenobashi still beats Excel.
Still like Haruhi, indifferent to Haibane, and find Banner boring

Angelic Layer does get better, not more boring. However, it also gets more ear-splitting as they replaced the lead's voice halfway through with an even higher-pitched one.
