Yep, that was pointed at you Havoc.
Seriously though, I reckon once you get past the amount of Mecha in this, you will enjoy it quite a bit.
'Ron' is a laugh and Youko is pretty cute for a girl with a very big gun!
Meandola:
As a matter of fact, I finished rewatching TTGL yesterday, and it still is one of my all time favourites, I don't like or dislike mecha, but really the mecha complemented the show ''in over the top'' ness, from Kamina's speeches (''Don't believe in yourself, believe in me who believes in you!'' Makes me smile every time they say that) to mecha comining into mecha combining into mecha to throw galaxies at each other.
All in all an amazing experience (watch doesn't cut it, the show sucks you in)
Micharus:
MM! is a pretty funny anime, but at the same time it has both it's sweet moments and slightly dark times as well, although it never gets so bad as to be depressing.
As far as girls go, I think MM! pretty much covers everything.
This anime revolves around a high school club and the people who become members of it.
The main characters are;
Sado Tarou, a guy who became a masochist because of an incident involving being hit by....
Yuuno Arashiko. She also has a problem that......
Isurugi Mio, the president of the club, is helping her with.
Hayama Tatsukichi, Tarou's best friend. He also has a problem that Tarou doesn't know about.
Onigawara Michiru, the school Nurse is keeping an eye on everyone.
The above characters are the ones that appear in every episode, right from the start.
There are other characters that show up during the anime and join the main group.
There are a lot of references to a few anime in this anime.
Mio looks a lot like 'Taiga' from 'Toradora', but at the same time has a similar personality to Haruhi from 'TMoHS', at least that's what I think.
It makes for a very interesting character.
There is also a nod to 'Dragon Ball Z' and 'Sailor Moon'. "Tuxedo Mask" anyone? (yes, I had to look up Tuxedo Mask to get it right. AniDB ftw!)
There is 'boing' but very little pantsu, and that only happens right at the end of the last episode.
The anime starts off something like this;
Tarou has a problem. Ever since an incident with a girl who hit him, he has been a masochist. He enjoys the pain he feels when a GIRL hits him.
Tarou's best friend, Hayama Tatsukichi, knows this and tells him to go to the 'Second Voluntary Club', a club that supposedly fulfils the wishes of students.
When he arrives, he meets not only Mio, but Yuuno, the girl who caused his masochism in the first place.
This is how it all starts, with Mio believing she can 'cure' Tarou of his masochism. How does Mio plan on doing that?
By inflicting large amounts of pain on him of course, and we all know where that is going to end up.
As the anime progresses, we discover that pretty much everyone involved with the club has some sort of 'problem'.
We find out that Yuuno suffers from 'androphobia' (fear of men) and this is the reason why Yuuno hit Tarou and accidentally caused his masochism.
It's probably the darkest the anime ever gets, but in the end, justice is served.
We also discover that Tatsukichi cross dresses and then his problem gets REALLY interesting.
We find that the school Nurse is into taking photo's of girls..... only girls, preferably in some sort of cosplay.
We also meet a girl genius, Hiiragi Noa, who talks in third person all of the time.
There are many many shenanigans along the route to 'curing' Tarou's 'hella masochism', as well as some treatment for the other members of the club, but they focus mostly on trying to help Tarou and Yuuno, which makes for some interesting situations.
Eventually, we end up with the dreaded 'love triangle' situation.
This anime is a good watch, it's pretty good for a laugh too, even if there aren't any real LOL situations.
The ladies are all cute, with the Nurse being 'Tsun' but no 'dere' most the time.
I should mention that Tarou has another problem, but this one is at home. His older, college age sister, Shizuka, and his mother, both love him a lot. Perhaps more than they really should. :o
The last episode is nice, with Mio getting a well deserved reward for her hard work.
There are one or two unresolved issues that weren't solved, so there is plenty of room for another season and I, for one, would really like it to happen. Bring on MM!!
Next up I will watch 'Witchblade'. It's an older anime, but it looks like it will be interesting.

I've only just gotten into anime compared to some people on this board and there are a heck of a lot of anime out there to watch.
My 'to get' list is darn near as big as the complete list on the OP of this thread and you have just added a few more to it, subject to me checking them out.
As for NHK.... who knows what rating I'm going to give an anime on the day I finish it.
That MAL list gets updated almost as soon as I finish watching an anime, so it's pretty current with what I have watched so far.
You should also note that a lot of the anime on my MAL don't even have a rating at all, it's something that I've only started to do relatively recently.
