Adding probably two of my favorite shows evar:
Nadesico
Captain Tylor (thanks for the reminder Vlad)

[Vlad G Pohnert]

Funny thing about Captain Tyler is that I actually don't like silly comedies, but I sat through it and it ended up being quite awesome and brilliant

Corpsegoddess: your list brings back a lot of memories and some of those were my favorates

To Add to the List:

Dirty Pair

Back in the mid 90s, I got a copy of about 20 VHS tapes recorded with anime straight from TV in Japan complete with commercials (that were almost more entertaining then the shows!), there are still title on there I've not a clue what they are about..

Sadly, most of the titles listed here I saw in their RAW anime Forms before Subtitling began to surface, I not sure how many can say that

That's one of the reasons Nadesico is probably my favorite show ever. It's silly and is full of good jokes and references, but then there are serious moments wherer it ends up being just brilliant. Same for Tylor. I'm rewatching Nadesico right now after not having seen it in forever, so freaking epic. If only they had finished the other two movies...Prince of Darkness has a few good parts for any Ruri fan, but other than that it was meh D:

Because calling bebop or lain "older" is debatable.
