Yes, all the works of Makoto Shinkai are interesting I think (She and her cat, Voices of a distant star, Place promised in our early days).

5cm/s made me cry, but that's not out of the ordinary. As for the protag, it's not Eva or a harem anime, nor is it a super robot anime. It's wistful and nostalgic (or something along those lines).

When the girl ran across the train track waving goodbye for no reason at all, to which the scene ended, I closed the window impatiently thinking it was your typical bullshit anime where the whole plot revolves around a useless feeble minded protagonist.

Well, it's not everyone's cup of tea, but its worth watching for sure. It is only 1 hour of your life. The soppy sounding woman at the beginning is not the protagonist, if that helps - The guy is the main character. She disappears after a while.

Plus, it has exact subs and easily to follow dialog, so it is good for studying even if you are not that enthralled with the story.

Supernatural: The Animation is set to release in a couple of months in Japan.

I can't think of anything else that hasn't already been mentioned.

So I was gonna suggest Black Lagoon until I saw that te OP already mentioned it (yes I read through the posts like a good little forum member. Do I get a cookie now?? jk)

Anyway.... After reading the rest of the posts all I can say is daaaammm I got a lot of watching to do.

Now I do feel like a n00b...

I definietly second higurashi no naku koro ni, both seasons. The third one is a crap, and adds nothing to the original storyline. Highschool of the dead is a piece of ****. It has some good music but that's it. It's only about big tits and blood.....
Evangelion is worth a shot in my opinion, and Mnemosyne was not mentioned in the previous threads, but is also good.

If you liked Higurashi no naku koro ni, there's also Higurashi no naku koro ni kai, which really clears everything up. Umineko no naku koro ni wasn't as good, but if you're hooked on the series it's kind of interesting.

Baccano! is quite adult and a little bit crazy, but the plot unfolds in a cool way.

House of Five Leaves would be boring for teens, and is quite slow moving but probably worth a watch. It has an unusual visual style.

Hakuouki is an awesome samurai anime, quite subtle and adult, with a cool mix of history and folklore. The ending is not what I wanted, but still a nice series.

Hakouki is good, I'm watching the second season already. I always like samurai animes and things like that
