This weekend so far
Tokyo Godfathers
http://www.animeondvd.com/reviews2/disc_reviews/28...
I enjoyed it very much. It follows 3 strangely different homeless people in tokyo as they find an abandoned baby. There were laugh out loud moments, mostly from "uncle bag" a homless crossdressing homosexual. And there were also obligatory touching moments.
Memories

This is Akira creator Katsuhiro Otomo's work. There are 3 separate episodes each standing along.
The first episode "Magnetic Rose" was probably my favorite. It rings true to 1980's sci-fi space anime.
The Triplets of Belleville
http://www.sonyclassics.com/triplets/#
ok... what.. the ... hell.. was... this? It was fun to watch. There is hardly any dialog at all. The plot doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Here let me explain: Grandma buys pudgy grandson a dog, he's bored with dog, buys him a tricycle, she then trains him vigourously to compete in the tour de france. Then during the race he's kidnapped by the french mafia. The mafia uses him in a betting ring to see who can peddle the furthest while looking at a projector. Oh and then there are these old triplets, that do 1920's style dancing and jigs who help the grandma get her son back... yeah...

It's pretty goofy and very light. Lots of gender roll and highschool romance jokes.
Who can't like a show that's theme song has a hook "kiss kiss fall in love!"

Working my way through Tenchi Universe Finally. Being a huge fan of the OVA, I'm glad to finally be watching it. Good stuff.
I hate the character Mihoshi with a passion though. I wish I could mute all scenes with her.

I've just begun watching the uncut version of Card Captor Sakura.
Generally, weekly grade-school Mahou Shoujo doesn't interest me much. However, I bought the full set through right stuf for ungodly cheap, so I'm giving it a chance.
A bit fluffy so far.
On the completely other end of the spectrum I've also begun watching Devil Lady
More on that one later...

What makes it uncut? IS THERE LOLI!?

Hah, no Loli. Just implied. Sicko
What makes it uncut is it's not the butchered US version.
Uncut just means it's exactly how it was when it was released in Japan.

Finished this over the last week. I was let down by the ending. I didn't particularly like "Freaky Blue Eyes" either.. God her character creeped me out.

As usual. The original Japanese opening song is better. As is the japanese title.
I've only ever watched this show in its original form. Fudge the edited toonami version.

She's a grown woman, she just happens to like this particular nickelodeon show. It's from the creator of the comic Johnny the Homocidal Maniac. It's very surprising this show was made for nickelodeon.
