Fanbase (or growing) = Lucky Star ppl seem to be changing their a-m-v.org avatars to this lately coz Konota is awesome XD
Personal Favourite this season = Claymore (think female protagonist version of Berserk, the action scenes are =O)
Close runner up for favourite this season and getting quite popular = Romeo x Juliet (awesome awesome animation and has fangirls squeeing for Romeo, Juliet is more of a tomboy in this one so im guessing not as many people connect =\)
Not well known but I like it = Serei no Moribito one of those feudal china/japan type animes, but once again brilliant animation
Hayate The Combat Butler is quite whacky, maybe too whacky for you... it's really one of the most random animes I have ever seen but it's quite fun err ask Kitsuner for more info on this hahaha =P

Further back, a good drama = Kanon 2007
And if you're into CLAMP character designs and mecha with lots of juicy plot twists and currently has a huge fanbase in Japan = Code Geass

I just watched Manabi Straight...cliche, but in a weird kinda new way?
Hayate no Gotokou is fun.
Lucky Star is fun, but not to be taken seriously. (also has a bunch of references to other shows/games/stuff, that's about half the humor) and yeah, Konata is my new heroine.
Also watching Gurren Lagann...completely retarded and over the top, but awesome. Did I mention awesome?

Konota is a representation of most of us it's almost scary!

I understand Kung Fu Jimmy Chow is all the rage right now among young hip and happening Japanimation enthusiasts.

If Wiki is telling the truth, I'm pratically a mix between Konota and Haruhi both of which are voiced by Aya.

Any anime with Aya Hirano's voice is worth a looksie:

Death Note: Misa
Haruhi: erm, Haruhi?

Lucky Star: Konata

Claymore is good
History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi has some of the hottest martial Arts boobies since the likes of Tenjou Tenge and Ikki Tousen.
Seto no Hanayome - Mermaid Yakuza, BEAT THAT FOR ORIGINALITY BITCHES!

I need to get to Gurren and Romeo & Juliet asap
