There will also be a Calcifer (Howl's Moving Castle) and Batou (Ghost in the Shell) and, straying from anime, probably a Nymeria.

    there's nothing wrong with that, as long as it's related to said discussion or doesn't derail the thread too much with a long and unrelated discussion

    i can't really be of any help though, since i didn't see those animes (yet)^^

    For Nausicaa? Hmm I'd go with an Eagle. That is what I was going to name mine before I went for the theme of British warships =P
    Eagle is the animal I immediately associated with Nausicaa when I first saw her.
    If not that, then a fox? For the fox squirrel ;]
    Yes I know Renagade is spelt wrong, I have use this name since I was about 5 and stuck with it ^_^

    Ghost in the Shell is well worth a watch, the series more than the movie (in my opinion).

    I watched the first 4 episodes of kanon 2006 and i have to say it is the most random anime i've ever seen. I'm going to finish it but i hope these is going to make sense at the end.

    it's not random at all. it's normal for animes of this sort to have a few introduction episodes. all the very different and strange characters are introduced and the first steps of their stories are explained, leaving both the viewer and the leading character in a "what is this all going to be about?!" state.
    Kanon also has a typical pattern of a) showing small parts of the actual background story (Yuichi's lost memories) without explaining them at first, b) constantly switching between touching and funny scenes/episodes and c) a few story parts that aren't going to be fully explained in detail, because they are meant as philosophical hints and thoughts.

    don't expect most of the animes i've listed to be as simple and one-dimensional as animes like Naruto, Bleach, Dragonball or Kidou Senshi Gundam in terms of story(-telling), humor and character design.

    Kanon, and most of the animes i've liked, are intended for a mature audience for a reason.

    UPDATE I: added Lucky Star, School Days, Stranger -Mukou Hadan- and a new category (movies) and moved Gekijouban Clannad there (with it's own description).

    looks interesting, although it's apparently not as good as many fans of Clannad and the like expected.

    Everything cant be the standard of Clannad, Kanon and the like, but this got some hillarious scenes and tons of oddballs, mix in some tragedy and drama and you got Angel Beats

    Tbh i was sceptic when i saw the trailer at first but it turned out to be worth while.

    Just finished watching: Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~ http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/ency...e.php?id=10541 <- Clicky Link for more info about the anime

    I thought it was really good it had me hooked from the moment it started, and i really wished it would last longer, the characters the story are all solid as hell.

    IkkiTousen - Battle Vixens
    IkkiTousen - Dragon Destiny
    IkkiTousen - Great Guardians
    IkkiTousen - Xtreme Xecutor
    Queen's Blade Season 1 and 2

    This might sound strange but im really tired of animes that have any form of "monsters" in it they get repeative and extremly boring, im more into Thrillers, psychological, Drama settings, that and Ecchi and fanservice harrharr ;P
