Jean and I watched the first two episodes of an Anime called No. 6~ ♥ Here's a synopsis:

"Sion is a bright teenager living a comfortable and promising life inside No. 6, one of this six remaining city-states created by The Babylon Treaty after the last great war devastated the world. On the rainy evening of his twelfth birthday, he meets a savvy adolescent who calls himself "Nezumi" (Rat) and is desperately trying to run away from the authorities. For helping a fugitive of the state, Sion is stripped of all his privileges. Four years later, they meet once again. For better or for worse, Sion is about to unravel the secrets guarded deep inside No. 6."

It's also the gayest, cutest thing ever. And there's a canon kiss in one of the original novels. :3 I hope they don't skimp this out for the Anime. Sion and Nezumi are so sweet together. ;; HAND-HOLDING. HAND-HOLDING EVERYWHERE. They even have a waltz! :3 Dystopia and adorable BL ftw.

Scary bees though. Ack. D: NOT THE BEES!!!

I downloaded all 12 episodes of Puella Magi Madoka Magica! I'M CATCHING UP WITH ANIME I WANT TO WATCH, WHOO. This show promises me a deconstruction of the Magical Girl along with lots of Nightmare Fuel and funky Yume Nikki-esque imagery. So far, it's delivering~ ♥

I also wanna download Princess Tutu and Toward the Terra. I heard good things about Tiger & Bunny and Simoun from a friend, and I wanna watch Utena so bad. ;; /Yes, being behind on practically everything that could possibly interest me in Anime is probably why I've been so depressed, ha.

My birthday's in 12 days. I'm so utterly shy when it comes to asking for gifts though. I don't want to seem too pushy or ask for too many expensive things. It makes me feel selfish, even if it's for birthday or Christmas. ^^;;; I'm asking for ponies from my IRL friends so my Fluttershy won't be lonely. Puri would love fanart for her birthday (Andy & Marius, waaaah), but since I haven't posted a whole lot of novel stuff on my journal or shown what a lot of my characters look like really (let alone Marius), I'm fine with just pictures of Raggedy Ann & Andy to keep nearby while I write. I'd be interested in how the artists on my flist interpret them. :o

Grimsley/Marshal, fic or art, would be nice too. If all else fails, anything involving my favorite Pokemon like Shaymin, Togekiss, or my Gen V favorites like Sigilyph, Lilligant, Bisharp, and Scraggy & Scrafty~ ♥

Ohgod, you've got Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Prepare to BAWL LIKE A LITTLE GIRL. I won't say much, because it's something that really needs to be experienced first, but holy crap, that anime will tear your heart out and stomp on it repeatedly. ;_;

Also, seconding the Tutu and Utena. They are both amazing and should be seen.

Aw man, I am SO not with the program on anime lately. XD; For me it's been cartoons and Pokemon, lol. My taste in anime these days is so retro, like Gatchaman.

Tiger and Bunny sounds interesting, though.
