Do you really? I mean I would have recommended more mecha stuff, but I saw you gave GGG a 5, and GGGF a 6...

Well ok, I'll give it a shot.

First up is Scryed. It isn't really a mecha show, more like a super-power show. + Show Spoiler + Its like if GGG or TTGL would be if there wasn't mechs. Its really good, I enjoyed it alot. Tons of hot-blooded action and all that good stuff.

Hey guys, I realize this is likely frowned upon, but here goes anyways:

I have a week long break here between classes and work, and was wondering if anyone could recommend me a good anime? My personal favourites are Clannad/AS, Kanon, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Code Geass. I have also watched and enjoy InuYasha, Elfen Lied, Air, SailorMoon (go go nostalgia), Angel Beats!, and Kenshin. I tend to like shows that are touching. I also like shows that are smart and keep you guessing like Code Geass. I usually stray away from shows like Naruto and Bleach that are too on-going because I find the plot and the characters gets old after the initial arc.

I was thinking of watching Higurashi, but it hasn't really gripped me in the first few episodes just yet...

5cm/s
Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai (AnoHana)
True Tears
Toradora

The ones up there are ones I think that would qualify as touching. Toradora is one of my personal favourites in terms of like slice-of-life/drama/romance. The characters are just awesome and cute. Higurashi is okay at first, but I felt the ending went a little weird.

edit: ef- tale of memories is really good too.

I don't know if these have been mentioned, but I feel that these are also "touching"
The Girl Who Leapt Through Time
Tsukimi no Ie
Usagi Drop

"Keep you Guessing"
Death Note
Eden of the East (hit or miss)
Durarara (hit or miss)
The recently finished Mawaru Penguindrum
Steins;Gate

If you are looking to expand your horizons, here are my personal recommendations
Cross Game (look past the episode count, it really is a gem-- baseball slice of life)
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (a definite for anime fans, fantastic series)
Lovely Complex/ Kaichou wa Maid Sama (both are nice romantic comedies, take your pick, or both!)
Spice and Wolf (words, words, words. Somehow it works.)
Tiger and Bunny (many people are repelled at first glance. Don't be.)
Hourou Musuko/ Aoi Hana/ Koi Kaze (deals with gender identity/lesbianism/incest in that order)

Using economy to solve problems not having Horo bailing him out of shit everytime

btw I really like this manga, Maou-sama is so moe. Hero isn't useless either. Every character have their own role, and overall none of the main characters seem useless or just plain suck.
