Where's all the grown-up series?

Yeah Mushishi drives me inside out cuz it's so dumb (or the extreme opposite of dumb to be precise). It's like intellect devoid of entertainment. I only saw a few episodes though, and has been said about bartender, I tend to have that reaction to certain series' after only a few episodes.

The Black Jack series is about as intellectual as I get without much entertainment (and it's really VERY similar if not identical with only a tiny bit of sidetracking and suspension of belief). The Harlock series, or Casshern, is my threshold on philosophical side. It's not about intelligence, it's about being able to tolerate one without the other.

And as far as Bartender goes I finished it, and if I had only watched ONE more episode (ep 5, the Hemingway ep) I may have had a clearer opinion. But all in all I was pretty correct in my assumption :/.
