One of a kind, 1 part Ski bum + 1 part (Anime)Otaku, all kinds of crazy. I don't read manga, I use that time for skiing. Furthermore Manga ruins anime by giving you expectations that are rarely if ever met. And I watch anime, so there you have it. I mean, if I had a nickle for every time I heard "The manga was better" I'd be a rich man...
*My top 5 are tied for my all time favorite, all 5 are #1 In My Opinion*
-Black Lagoon
-TTGL
-Baccano
-Steins;Gate
-Usagi Drop
I watch most genres, but rarely if ever sports, no Yaoi/Shounen Ai, and no Hentai either.
So far as my ratings go I keep a relatively simple system. I only use round numbers, no decimals. 10 is 100% (A+), 9 is 90%(A), 8 is 80% (B), 7 is 70% (C+), 6 is 60% (C-), etc. So I would not recommend anything on my list below a 7. My 6's usually ended badly or I would have considered dropping it sooner. I try not to start anime I will likely drop, and have roughly a 4% drop ratio.
So I recommend the 10's, then the 9's, then the 8's. Start into my 7's when those are done. Avoid anything with a lower score than 7.
I generally HATE AMV's due to poor choice of track, and a lot of bad amateur ones around also help ruin them for me. That said I do like some, so I added 5 from my fav anime. I probably will add others as I see fit later :)

Sakamichi No Apollon Scence (Jazz Duo)
Sacred 7 "Troll OP" IMO is better than the Original. Enjoy :)
In fact base shounen is not exactly my thing . . . I'm sorry.
Check my favorites.
Do you want to add any useful info and critic about the show? or just that?
Have a nice day.
(did you really read my review ? or just the rating...)
YES. Haha, I avoid watching stuff while it's airing because I hate waiting on cliffhangers too. I also rushed straight into watching S2 and now I'm like "shit shit shit it's not done yet, but I can't stop"
I was about to rec Chihayafuru to you because of how fond you are of Apollon, but I checked for it on your list first and it looks like you loved it too :O
I'm only halfway through, but this show is pure magic. And yes, it reminds me a lot of Apollon, but the two are completely different. Apollon was the joy and frustration of the characters' romances and family ordeals growing up given shape with the jazz sessions they played.
Chihayafuru is more the spirit of competition, the true spirit of it, when one's enjoyment of the game and desire to win are equal. But they have a similar atmosphere to me, and the storytelling in both brings out so much feeling.
Despite the extremely stock shoujo manga love triangle of Osananajimi -> Tomboy -> Subject of Slightly More Aspiration Than Attraction, it's a really amazing story.
Ahhhh, you were the one that liked Azazel. I possibly recommend Cromartie even more in that case. I wouldn't say it's exactly the same style of gags, since I've honestly never seen ones on Cromartie's level.
But any rate, the episodes are half-length in it as well, and it's definitely worth giving it a try at least. ;D
Thank you for your comment, I really appreciate it. I do intend to do more reviews because I enjoy doing so, but I am a college student so I can't pump them out left and right like I wish I could. Means a lot when people tell me they like them though. :)

You watched a bit over 100 anime more than me but you only have about 1 day in watched time more than me. >_< Seems like I watched longer anime. *lol*

If that was you who said that, I highly, highly recommend Cromartie High School *v*
