I know that they are both slice of life but Haibane seems like it had more serious philosophical content and a melancholic atmosphere while Aria was just some cuddly dream world where everything was perfect and people were over-friendly. I might have gotten the wrong impression though as I didn't finish Aria... Oh I meant something different. I probably should have said instead: "if you don't like the pacing of Aria and you just plain didn't like Haibane Renmei, then don't watch Sora no Woto". I'd place Sora no Woto somewhere in between Haibane and Aria. The series definitely doesn't go in as depth as Haibane does in terms of character development, but it's not necessarily an Aria type anime either. I still think you can't talk about that anime without talking about the ending though... Oh, and new Kodome no Jikan anime announced. I'm going to go shoot myself now. | ||

I...I know I shouldn't like it, but I do. A lot. It's not even like it has a real story or character development, which is what i consider to be the most important part of anime  .Does anyone have any opinions on Kanon? I really liked Clannad and Air started out good, and then kinda fell apart. If not Kanon, are there any other Romance/Drama that are really worth watching? Oh, and is there a mecha anime that's worth watching either? I tried TTGL, hated it. Tried Code Geass, hated it. Tried Gundam 00, it was okay. The only three 'mecha' I kinda enjoyed were Last Exile, Macross Zero, and Eureka Seven. Hmm... if you don't like Code Geass or TTGL.. Try out Full Metal Panic. It's a bit "harder" (more realistic) than most mecha. I guess you can also try out Neon Genesis Evangelion (if you haven't already), but that's starting to edge out of mecha territory and you probably won't like it anyways.  | ||

Obvious romance choices in the seinen category are obviously ef a tale of memories Try dipping into shoujo if you are looking for a slightly different flavour of romance, or yuri aswell. Bokura ga ita, kimi ni todoke are both great romances Aoi hana Most of the best yuri is manga (girl friends!) and by the same sentiment a lot of the best romance too | ||

As someone who really hates Evangelion, I can say that it is one of the most overrated animes of all time, so I don't really think that people hate on it alot. | ||

Anybody following Rainbow? yea i seen the first few eps... its decent, one of the better shows this season, the stupidity of some of the characters really blows my mind, like how that guy escapes, runs to his sisters orphanage and starts yelling out and causing a hubbub, i mean come on, he coulda just quietly got her out and legged it... but no~~ Try out Full Metal Panic. It's a bit "harder" (more realistic) than most mecha. i personally hate mecha but FMP and gurren laggaan are awesome. | ||

Felt like i was going to hang myself any minute =\. Only staying with it because the reviews i read pretty much mentioned that the 3rd season is pretty sick and i wanna see what all the hype was about it. Ill tough it out i guess.. hopefully Honestly, if you didn't like the first season Aria probably just isn't for you. Finally get to start watching anime again now that finals are over :D | ||
