It's quite simple, lvuer. I (claim) to like all these titles on equal terms. Not that I think they're equal in terms of plot, animation, music etc. but I just like them all equally.

Also, I can have a lot of so-called "favorites" because these represent only a small fraction of the shows I've actually watched, or so I claim :evil:

I thought this much should be obvious?

Besides, the original post stated no limits. It said what ARE your current favorite anime/manga series. Not to state just a set number of titles from your favorites. I hope I've made myself clear, but if not, I'd be willing to explain further much as it might derail the thread completely (which I don't really care about)

If we're talking "current" then I was quite happy with Maria+Holic (just concluded), Clannad After Story (just concluded) and so far have been quite taken with K-On (just broadcast Ep 02).

* Rurouni Kenshin
* Serial Experiments Lain
* Trigun

* Midori no Hibi
* .hack//WHATEVER

And Ghibli's (remembering of crying like a baby while whatching Hotaru no Haka)

Currently reading (in order of squealing intensity):

- Bakuman
- Saint Seiya - The Lost Canvas

- Kannagi (I read it because of the drawings xD;)

And a handful of guilty-pleasure-that-are-not-really-memorable random shoujo series I read just for the "awwww <3", "squeeee!" and doki-doki XP

Yup. The full name is Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE. I have no idea why CLAMP felt it necessary to capitalize random letters, but apparently it matters to them.

Because lately the panels seem too empty, the chapters seem to end without much happening and the pacing is awfully slow when you read one chapter per week Dx;
That is frustrating for me.

It seems japanese peoples like to capitalize random letters and use strange symbols in foreing names. At least, most of japanese bands I know use things like this (DI3SIRAE, xTriPx, NoGoD, GPKism, and so on).

Macross Frontier. Just...Macross Frontier. (Not least because its best character probably has the biggest breasts you'll ever see in a non-hentai anime...) The number of times they pull off awesome fakeouts and explosive "what the hell?"s doesn't hurt.

Sailor Moon, despite being -generally- mediocre, also gets an honorable mention for the number of little things they really do right. (Kunzite, start to finish, makes an awesome villain...and of course, probably the best-written relationship of any mix of genders in anime, Haruka and Michiru.)

Yes, Sailormoon. I shame myself for not remembering it. Without Sailormoon animation, there won't be my current drawing style (heck, perhaps right now I won't be drawing at all)
