Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood
I believe its 52 or 53 (I'm probably wrong, I watched the whole show in 2 days on netflix a year ago) 30 minute episodes. This. Although I would watch Full Metal Alchemist first. Try Deadman Wonderland, Hellsing, Hellsing Ultimate OVA, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, (Try giving Darker Than Black a shot again, it really is excellent) and there is a new anime coming out 2013 that looks incredible called Attack On Titan. Edit: Oh yeah, Claymore is good. Why would you ever recommend anyone to watch the horrible mess that ís the deadman wonderland anime? It's a horrible adaption of already only decent to mediocre source material. Might as well recommend him boku no pico while you're at it. Because I found it highly enjoyable to watch? All subjective.
You have all right in the world to enjoy it and like it, but that doesn't change what a mess it is and recommending it doesn't really make any sense. Especially seeing how little sense the anime itself made due to leaving out so many important things such as characters that are crucial to character development. The anime makes a lot things happen just because without reason.
It's the same with SAO, shitty adaption of already mediocre source material.
Subjectivity most definitely means that you and others can enjoy them and think they're amazing, but objectively they story-wise both make a lot of mistakes and some things happen just because with no reasoning behind it and thus turns into asspulls.

I'm with you. Tried to watch both of them but I just couldn't be bothered anymore after 5 or so episodes.

I'm not saying it's amazing, but I enjoyed it and I'm generally not the biggest fan of short animes, personally my favourites are Naruto and Fairy Tail. So I was just recommending most the short animes that I found to be nice to watch in the hope he may enjoy some of them!
I agree objectively that flaws are present, but it doesn't wreck what is otherwise an enjoyable anime for me.

Well, that explains a lot.
@OP it might not suit you but you could give Spice & Wolf a try.
Or if you want something that is 2deep4u you can watch Aku no Hana when it comes out in not too long.
And some people will argue you should watch Neon Genesis Evangelion to form your own opinion on it.

Hey. If you read, that specific bit was only about long animes, which out of all of them I prefer Naruto and Fairy Tail, I watch Bleach but find the plot to be quite literally "Fight, lose, grow stronger, win, next fight...".

Watch Gundam Unicorn if you like Gundam.

Thanks all, I downloaded a few ep 1(s) from my friend and ended up settling on Fate/Zero as the series that caught my fancy after 1 ep. Reminds me a bit of X or FUshoogii Yuugii. I'm pretty sure I spelled that right.
Ive have watched Neon Genesis back in the day (hence the 2004+) and thought it was alright at the time, a bit too japanese/eden/lifestream/gaia/reincarnation mumbo for me personally, but worth watching.
I guess I should say I AM a fan of Naruto and Bleach, but only reading the weekly manga updates. The movies are ok, but I guess once I like a fictional universe enough, only the manga will suffice. But I think Inuyasha ruined long series for me. I couldn't stand filler episodes and/or half wasted episodes following some characters I didn't care about, which made me prefer short series, or ones with finite seasons with definable arcs/storylines.

Welcome to every battle shounen ever.

What compelling writing, turned the bad guy good with the power of friendship, i wonder how we'll handle the next enemy? bullshit asspull power out of nowhere or another friendship speech? Follow us after 2 seasons of nonsensical fillers and find out!
