A pointless list.

In an exercise of complete pointlessness, until my next Halko update..I am compiling a list of anime I have seen and need to see in the future. This list does not include movies.

I don't know why I made this. Nobody should really care about what I have watched, but I'm bored at work so here goes...

Badly Need to Watch:
1. Full Moon wo Sagashite
2. Fruits Basket
3. Mai HiME
4. Rozen Maiden
5. Cowboy Bebop (DOES THIS SURPRISE YOU THAT I HAVEN'T SEEN IT? BUT I KNOW SPIKE DIES!)
6. Last Exile
7. Hajime no Ippo


Kind of want to watch but not really willing to waste the time:
1. To Heart
2. Da Capo
3. Scrapped Princess
4. R.O.D. TV
5. Kokoro Library

Currently Watching:
1. Sousei no Aquarion (Not that great: feels way too much like an Eva knockoff. The robots and fights are cool as hell though.)
2. Gokujou Seitokai (I am laughing.)
3. Honey and Clover (So far so good.)
4. He is My Master (I enjoy torturing myself, so this will be my instrument of torture for this season.)
5. Kamichu! (Interesting.)
6. Ichigo Mashimaro (ADTRW is a bad influence. I should not be watching this.)
7. Yakitate! Japan (Absolutely hilarious. Still funny even though I already read the manga)
8. Damekko Doubutsu (I enjoy weird/cute shows, and this is weird AND cute.)
9. Galaxy Angel (Multiple seasons. Ongoing)
10. Gundam SEED (I just started.)
11. Kingyou Chuuihou (The episodes are coming out slowly , but I will definitely finish this.)

In Limbo:
1. Tsukuyomi (Stuck on episode 8 from Sugar-Cube. Oh god is it so hard to sub this? Somebody please finishs subbing so I can get on with it. Don't make me jump ship to mahou.)
2. Sensei no Ojikan (See above. Both groups stopped subbing, what the hell?)
3. Slam Dunk(Watched 8 episodes. I am still trying to get the rest of it.)
4. Akahori Gedou Hour Love-Game (Watched one episode for Momoi. I probably would watch more if I could find episodes.)
5. Ichigeki Sacchu! Hoihoi-san (Does anybody know what happened to this?)
6. Onegai My Melody No idea what happeend to this either.

Aborted:
1. Pretty Cure (Aborted on episode 3. This show sucks.)
2. Bobobo Bobobobo (Aborted on episode 4. They are trying waayyy too hard to be ZANY and WACKY. LOL!!1!1)
3. Kiddy Grade (Episode 2.)
4. Tenchi Muyo (Episode 4. I tried to like this. I really did.)
5. Marimite (Episode 3. Too boring.)
6. Di Gi Charat Nyo (Episode 1. Let's not tarnish the awesome memory of the original Di Gi Charat ok? Also, I don't like Piyoko.)
7. Tekkaman (Tried a few episodes. No major flaws, but it's nothing special and I just don't have the willpower to watch a long show like this unless I see a point to it.)

Finished (in reverse chronological order):
1. Mahoraba Heartful Days (This is so fucking good. Watch this, please.)
2. Ah! My Goddess TV (I enjoyed it. Not for everyone. Mostly watched this for Ikue Ohtani.)
2. Victorian Romance Emma (Not bad. Eleanor got shafted though so I feel bad.)
3. Haibane Renmei (Oh, Reki.)
4. Tsukihime (Oh, Arcueid.)
5. Genshiken (with Kujibiki Unbalance) (This is a very interesting series about otaku life. Also, based on the 3 OVAs..I wish Kujian was real.)
6. 2x2=Shinobuden (Kind of funny but ultimately a waste of time.)
7. DearS (Watched for Love Slave and melon bread. Ren is kind of cute but the slave complex is too creepy.)
8. Ragnarok Online (Watched for Maya)
9. Samurai Seven (It definitly doesn't do justice to the film, but hey it's watchable.)
10. Gokusen (I like this. Very amusing.)
11. Yumeria (My tradition of watching shows based on bishi-games must be upheld. Thankfully, this one was not so bad)
12. Hand Maid May (Cute.)
13. Stellva of the Universe (Space-age Harry Potter. It's actually a lot of fun, and introduced me to Angela)
14. Aishiteruze Baby (One of my favorites. Yuzuyu is cute.)
15. Dogtato (Awesome. It's ALL about Croconion.)
16. Kono Minikuku Mo Utsukushii Sekai (I came in expecting this to be Mahoromatic 3, but I ended up with 'suck' instead.)
17. Dokkoider (One of my favorites. Very interesting premise.)
18. Nurse Witch Komugi-chan Magikarte (Great parody. Also: Momoi, Momoi, Momoi.)
19. Bottle Fairy (This is the cutest show that has ever existed in the history of cute things. I have had several cute-induced heartattacks while watching this.)
20. Di Gi Charat
21. Onegai Twins (OMG THEY MIGHT BE RELATED, BUT THEY MIGHT NOT BE! If it weren't for the OP/ED this series would have no redeeming qualities whatsoever.)
22. Sister Princess (Sucks. Also, Horie Yui's character is really really creepy so even she couldn't save this series.)
23. Ikkitousen (Why on earth did I think watching this was a good idea?)
24. Kare Kano (I remember I did not like this while I was watching it..but somehow I seem to have good memories about it.)
25. Mahoromatic 1 & 2 (An overall great show that was ruined by the horrible GAINAXTM ending.
26. Onegai Teacher (A nice feel-good show. Plus I discovered KOTOKO through this..)
27. Azumanga Daioh (Kagura fanboy for life. Osaka is okay too, but nothing can compete with swimsuit tan.)
28. Excel Saga (I did not find this funny. I may have been too much of an anime newbie back then to get it..but I have no intention of trying again.)
29. Popotan (Hey the actress for Mii sounds pretty cute. I also like the OP song. I wonder who she is?)
30. Chobits (I must be the one guy in the entire world who doesn't hate Chobits)
31. Love Hina (Irritating. Also, if you want to watch a story about lots of girls living with a guy in a communal house that doesn't suck, Mahoraba is the way to go.)
32. Gundam Wing (I hated this show. Being my first series, it turned me off from Gundam for years and years.)
33. Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket (Made me realize Gundam might not be such a shitty series after all.)
34. Evangelion (Attractive character designs. Terrible story. The end made no sense whatsoever and Shinji is a whiny faggot.)
35. Dragon Ball Z & GT (Contrary to public opinion, I LIKE the speed 4-frame fight animations and constant disappearing/reappearing tricks. Although they may have been methods to save on animation and due to budget constraints, I think they accidentally pioneered a new field in "crazy god fighting styles." Let's not get into story. If you watch DBZ for story you are an idiot.)
36. Sailor Moon (Saw this when I was a wee boy, and when you're little..this is a great show. I also thought Tuxedo Mask was cool back then. Actually I probably still think this on the subconscious level [not gay].)

Famous series that I will probably never watch:
1. Inuyasha (I have no idea what this show is about or if it's good, but I hold a grudge against the insane "in your face" fans so I refuse to watch this out of spite.)
2. Rurouni Kenshin (I have no desire to start even though I know I should see this. But I can't force myself through this "just for the heck of it"...since it's way too long.)
3. Escaflowne (No desire to watch.)
4. Full Metal Alchemist (Too long..too huge to download..too many volumes to buy..and I don't have Cartoon Network)
5. Naruto (I am already reading the manga because catching up to the show would take FOREVER if I started now)
6. Hikaru no Go (Series was too long so I read manga instead.)
7. Ranma 1/2 (Too long. Also, Rumiko Takahashi has enough money there is no need for me to give her any more.)
8. GTO (Too long. Read manga instead.)
9. Trigun
10. Hellsing

It's already kind of lame that I am compiling a list of cartoons. Do I really want to make it even more pathetic by publishing a list of cartoon porn? I'll pass on that opportunity :P
