Well, it seems that foreboding has fallen over the calm world that I call home. ZS forums and I are now best buds. (I think that zombies have less cred than nukes as a doomsday, but slightly more than aliens...)

Kaleido Star, Wolf's Rain, Crest/Banner (I & II) of the Stars, Last Exile, Rozen Maiden, Bleach (except for the Bounto arc), Azumanga Daioh, and Cardcaptor Sakura all rank very highly...

Are you a Korean? Your list is very similar with famous anime list between South Korean teenagers.

I really like anime, but since I never had decent internet speed, I can't get anything to watch, There's the occasional anime on TV here though.
But lucky me, I found a local anime shop. I haven't bought anything there yet, but I sure will very soon.

ugh the bounto arc was horrific. I like the current one though.

I meddle in anime a little, but I'm not a serious watcher. What I do is, whenever I find a new anime, I find a group that has subbed it, and just torrent all the episodes and watch them at my leisure. Much better than TV I've done that for wolf's rain, rurouni kenshin, bleach, eureka seven, and probably a few others.

It's just a medium of delivery. There's no particular draw to it. People generally just like the stories and characters.

It's not for everybody. You may or may not like audiobooks or concrete poetry or black and white movies, just as you may or may not like anime.

Edit: PS: I really like that quote in your sig! The glass is 2x as large as it needs to be

Nope, I'm not! Any correlation between my list and popular anime in Korea is pure happenstance

I'm curious now though. What other titles are currently popular where you live? There may be more that I haven't seen yet that I'd like

Ick! DVDs are cheap now. rightstuf.com is running a sale right now where 10 Geneon DVDs are $50 and 25 are $100. Gungrave and R.O.D. the TV are sure bets. It feels really nice to be able to watch it from DVD on a larger screen and support the studios...

So, I suppose you are not American. Because when I first saw thread about amine which American likes. I felt that most of them likes something kill or something die, than East Asian people.

I think the list of popular anime in Korea, is similar with list of Japanese anime magazine. Find the list! One of my best anime what you not seen yet, is Kamichu!. And I also recommend xxxHolic
