I gots anime coming! Just got an email from Amazon saying their stuff from their Anime Sale is on its way!
First: The complete box set of Paniponi Dash!
This one ranks right up there with Bo Bo-Bo-Bo Bo Bo-Bo in sheer volume of silly WTFness. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, but it's funny as hell. I can only watch a few episodes before I start getting headaches from laughing so much. :)
Secondly:
complete box set of Ergo Proxy:
WTFness in a serious, meta sort of way, and still not entirely sure what it's about, but we rented this via Netflix and I LOVE it. Also? Episodes named after Douglas Coupland novels. And also? BEST. THEME SONG. EVER. (And also also? Brilliant move using Radiohead's "Paranoid Android" as the closing theme. ;) )
And third:
Tokyo Godfathers...another brilliant work by Satoshi Kon. Now if I can just get around to finding a cheap copy of the Paranoia Agent series, I think we'll have most everything of his available in the US...
YAY for anime! :D
