The fanservice isn't what's it's all about. I focused on the fighting and it's actually quite good. You should have given Kenichi a chance. The fanservice isn’t what’s it’s all about.

Just skip the original and move on to Fumoffu. I can't even begin to describe how good Fumoffu is as a comedy show. Plus you don't need any prior knowledge from FMP to watch Fumoffu. It's more like a spin-off than actual story. Seriously, don’t get discouraged by the original FMP. Just skip the original and move on to Fumoffu.

I never managed to continue with the original Full Metal Panic. I think I saw about four or five episodes before I gave up. I'm in the same boat with you on the original. But I do highly recommend Fumoffu. They take out the heavy seriousness of the story and let the humor fly throughout the whole thing, from my recollection. >> … I never managed to continue with the original Full Metal Panic.

The story has already proved to be succesful, so they know they're investing their time in something worthwile. I agree with you on the fact that cutting these parts out of the manga is a bad thing to do. I can imagine that this would ruin the original style of the manga. idril: I've already told you. Tokyo Toshokan. Search for Jang Geum's dream. Be glad that you're the first one doing this, or I would've eaten you alive. ^_^ ryuuu: that’s indeed why a lot of anime are based on manga.

I liked the manga, but I think the anime isn't going to be any good. The manga version of Negima is awesome. It's unfortunate that the 1st season of the anime version sucks so much that I can't even finish watching it. Hopefully this 2nd season is beter than the 1st season. The manga is done by Ken Akamatsu, who also did Love Hina. Warning: his manga generally has lots of fanservice (nekkid girls, clothes torn apart, etc) Anime based on manga from your list(that I know of/I've read them) : kenichi, negima, kekkaishi, busou renkin, tokyo tribe, d gray man, death note, wallflower, black lagoon. To me is seems that the reason these manga were chosen to be made into anime is because they're already fairly popular. My impression on this kind of anime is not so good. My experience (tenjou tenge, air gear, negima) shows that the manga often has materials that is "not quite safe" to be shown on TV but is also one of the reason behind the manga's popularity. Often that "not quite safe" material will be cut out from the anime. It seems silly to me that the anime producer hoped that the popularity would spill over to the anime, if the material that makes the manga successfull won't even be in the anime. Just my opinion. I'm sorry for my ranting. Great list by the way. Now I need to make plan on which anime to watch. Kenichi is based on a shonen manga.

You mentioned that you "haven't seen any great work from Kyoto Animations". Did you watch the Full Metal Panic series, especially Fumoffu and Second Raid? I thought those two were among their best work. Just my opinion though. Wow, that must be a lot of work, such a detailed long list.

I'm not really sure if the sub was parody, intentionally or unintentionally bad, but considering the content it fitted perfectly. Yeah, Your-Mom isn’t that good.

I'd like to stay as far away from Your-Mom's releases as possible. They're about the only fansub group I hate. And about Kujibiki Unbalance, I think the creators are only trying to milk the concept some more, as it seems to have a huge fanbase... I’ve yet to see Utawarerumono 22.

So bad that it's not possible to watch it with serious face. For me Binbou Shimai has been quite opposite. I liked first episodes, but one by one it's just more dull. Now I barely watch the whole show anymore. Kanon remake is interesting one. It really depends where the focus is, harem or emo drama. KyoAni did Air very well so I hope same happens here. I don't think Kujibiki Unbalance stay interesting 12 episodes, 3 previous OVA were good, but only because they didn't do full series. Hataraki Man could be good, depends really how fanservice-ish it's. You mean Gonzo is going to do an anime without a girl with big boobs? That's not possible. I'm looking forward to see Ghost Hunt, drama shoujo is always good thing. The latest episode of Utawarerumono was rather funny, it was actually first one where I really laughed.
