Edit -- One more episode till I finish True Tears. After watching it again, I come to a conclusion that this is by far the best anime series that can literally pin-point realism for anime character eyes. Each scene was handled carefully, even the clothing parts and animation ... tho' I know some other anime would surpass True Tears in animation. But the point of the matter is the pupils in the eyes, the drawing, colors, reflection and careful measurements for each character.

*adds to list of stuff to watch*

Went back to D.C. Second Season on episode 6 ... god, I hated what happened to Juu'inchi. Nemu just pisses me off so much in the 2nd season (for the first 12 episodes or so). I don't find her attractive neither.

ROD TV 1-4 so far, Witch Hunter Robin 1-2, Gungrave 1. I just got back into rewatching these. I have Outlaw Star Remastered, but so far I have only seen the first 2 episodes. Since the first time I saw it was on Toonami, and heavily censored, it has been a treat to watch it and I will continue with it as I have it all.

I've been re-watching selected episodes of Koihime Musou and Hyakko, because both series are awesome.
When I'm bored I watch eps 6 and 23 of Lucky Star.
Then sometimes I'll have a bit of Horo goodness with Spice and Wolf ep 6 and the DVD ep.
Hmm... Strike Witches is always good for a laugh. I haven't finished that series yet because I'm waiting on StrikeS' DVD rips, but I could re-watch the Sanya/Eila ep all day.
Oh yeah, Baccano is great for re-watching, I find something new every time I watch an ep. I would turn gay for Firo, and then go straight for Ennis or Chane... :P

I've been watching some good retro anime lately, Mobile Suit Gundam and Alps no Shojo Heidi with Spanish audio, I've never been able to find the series with original Japanese audio and English or Spanish subs.

Ahh, it's been a long time since I've seen Ninja Scroll! Maybe I'll give that another go.

Hmmz I just remembered EVA... anyone rewatched that lately? The only time I've watched EVA was when I was mentally unstable and watching it marathon style made me all the more unstable >.< I'm almost afraid to rewatch that thing...

Finished the first Gundam series little over a month ago and I am slowly going over Zeta as well at the moment...
I also saw 12 Kingdoms and Mushishi again quite recently but I dont think they are old enough to be truly considered retro. ^^

So, how is the Mushishi anime? I've only read the manga.

I really enjoyed the anime. Ended up buying both the anime box set and all the mangas. I still need to read through the manga though but I've been avoiding it because my Japanese is only half-ass.

Good to know, I'll check it out. I've been keeping up with the manga as the volumes are released. Thanks.

Only went up to episode 4 for Mushishi. =[ I lost interest because 1 ... it was still airring! Haha, around that time is when I stopped watching non-completed anime. I do have the full series tho', I plan to watch it whenever I feel like watching it. Probably around July or August.

Been watching some City Hunter lately, as I've been in an 80's anime spin. I also re-watched Bubblegum Crisis, Gall Force and Outlaw Star.  ;D Now I'm thinking of trying Ranma 1/2.  8)

I've had an itching to rewatch Samurai Champloo again. I find myself specifically playing the song that plays during the final credits whenever I can.

I also enjoy using a random number generator and watching that episode of Lucky Star, it never really fails to land on an good episode!

Not a re-watch, but I'm finally watching the last Godmars season after going on hiatus from the show over the last year or so.

...so far the 1st season is still the best one, but the 3rd is at least an improvement on the 2nd.
