    Almost


    Didn't it feel satisfying to know that you reached the end though?

    It was a task of monumental proportions, more mental than anything, but It's a keeper.

    LoL...is it a masochistic thing like me; even though it's so bad you just can't help re-watching an odd episode or two every now and then?

    Here's some other stuff I never finished watching (you can tell me :
    - Gankutsuou - stylistic animation, but mostly annoying, I couldn't physically bear an episode.
    - Cowboy Bebop - yes, seriously . . . no real reason, I'll get up to episode 1x and just fall behind...then try again....and again....and again....it's like reading 1984, I've read the first few chapters several times, and thoroughly enjoyed it....
    - Angelic Layer - in hindsight, I'd have rather completed this than Chobits.
    - Metal Armor Dragonar - carbon copy of Gundam plotlines roundabout the same time (it's good, but if you've seen the earlier Gundams, pretty generic)
    - .hack//Sign - it started off well....but the lead was too lame...as were every other character
    - Casshern - dull. as.
    - Excel Saga - wtf to the power of wtf....too much for me!
    - Macross 7 - the follow up to SDF Macross was always going to be a tall order, it was obvious from the first episode this was going to suck!

    There's plenty more, those are just what stick in my head...

    Re: The Anime Thread :)

    Gankutsuou - I think I watched ep 1 of this, thought "nice visuals but it's doing my eyes in" and never bothered. lol.
    Cowboy Bebop - Only watched "Knocking on Heaven's Door" (movie). Was enough for me.
    Angelic Layer - OO..I liked that series, very easy and light to watch.
    Metal Armor Dragonar - Seen a few eps, worth a pop in my eyes. There is also Heavy Metal L Gaim (or something to that effect) that's a cheesey 80s big robot show.
    .hack//Sign - All the .hack stuff I avoid like the plague. It'll either blow me away or be shockingly bad (probably the latter).
    Casshern - Not seen this nor Casshern Sins
    Excel Saga - Heard of it, same as .hack, I avoid as I know it'll be good or very bad in my eyes (most likely the latter)
    Macross 7 - Was it a follow up though? I always thought it was about a band travelling the stars singing, just another take on the macross universe without the funky changing valkyrie fighters/action. Just singing, romance and drama.

    White Album
    I always thought this could be the serious drama version of Skip Beat! about the trials and tribulations of becoming an idol but it is JUST a harem anime with an idol theme.

    Kurokami
    What's gone on now? Where are the brilliant fight scenes from episode 1? Where is the "shock" value?

    White Album
    As the story progresses I can empathise less and less with the two main protagonists; Yuki and Touya.
    Why does Yuki torture herself and Touya by distancing herself from the one she loves??! Makes no freaking sense whatsoever. Touya; I do not understand how he can love and hold in the highest regard his "everyday", Yuki, yet STILL do the dirty with Misaki, Yayoi and even entertaining Rina and Haruka. I just do not understand how Touya keeps going back to Yayoi even though he knows full well why she is doing the dirty with him.

    Cool

    It was a toss-up between that & re-watching my SPAWN collection, but i'm staying with the Anime. I'll leave Todd McFarlane's opus for another day.

    I never really got into Spawn...I should give it a shot than just watch the occasional show that happens to appear here or there.

    I might dig up something relatively from the past and watch that...new stuff seems poor at the moment or it's so run of the mill.

    I been told Vampire Hunter D isn't that good, Ninja Scrolls quite run of the mill and Akira for me is iconic for bringing me into another realm of anime.
