For Gundam, you're much better off watching First Gundam all the way to SEED, skip Destiny, and watch 00. Seriously I've found 00 worlds better than SEED and SEED Destiny, and while some scenes are indeed shamelessly ripped off from previous series, those series are not SEED.
(And Hallelujah's back, bitches.)

the guardians thing was ikkitousen great guardians, not koihime lol, but both are 3 kingdoms. ikkitousen = BOOBIES
uhh haruhi isn't a classic, it was good but not THAT good death note mango sucks after L dies end of eva is always good yeah but prepare for major mindfuck (also lilith in rei form behind beheaded wasnt something i needed to see at 3am in the dark) kannagi is good la, the karaoke ep was epic win srsly. and it's quite unique in its storytelling actually
re: ef art, it's standard SHAFT visuals. see: hidamari sketch (awesome show) and zetsubou sensei (also awesome)

Haruhi is THAT good. It's somewhat a pioneering anime that gets others to pick up on its stereotypes. Also, original plotlines that work well are THAT good.
And yes, if death note had a mango it would suck anyway. After L diededed.
End of eva was great; rebuild's greater.
Kannagi OP for the win. Kannagi up to episode 9 for the win. Kannagi making me wince at yaoi fangirl stereotypes isn't very win. Nor muscular guy thinking too much of BDSM and having an imagination going even further.
Hidamari sketch is pwnage. Zetsubou sensei too. Wonder why it was only 10th place last year =_=".

Death Note does have a manga, and it does fail after L's death. End of Eva made no sense and had Shinji cumming on Asuka's boobs. Rebuild is flippin' awesome though.
Kannagi, like so many anime nowadays, was made to cater to the otaku crowd, or at least, those that are familiar with Japanese pop culture and can appreciate the kind of jokes made at the expense of otaku, hence the focus on magical girls and stuff.
Haruhi is... Meh, I don't really feel like writing essays on where it succeeds and fails.

Haruhi is only epic is some ways i agree. It is really not epic in others (wow useful statement...)
Shinji fapping to Asuka was totally not the thing to look out for in End of Eva.
And Ikkitousen is just the name of the characters. And the ecchi.

Shinji fapping off to Asuka's COMATOSE, naked body was pretty much borderline necrophilia and set the mood for the rest of the movie (it's going to be creepy, inane, and make no sense, with plenty of nakedness thrown in for good measure). There were awesome bits, like Unit 02 vs Units 5-through-13, but I have seen literally HUNDREDS of better super robot fights, so forget that.

End of eva held many metaphors of death and impulses which i don't want to elaborate on.
And that was on purpose. MANGO. =_=".
Also, Haruhi's epic enough to be THAT good, though season two may meet more people's expectations.

what, gaogaigar? HIKARI NI NAREEEEE GaoGaiGar is fuckwinpwn. Best Super Robot series ever, no question about it. Of course, that's only if you include GaoGaiGar FINAL, since it more than makes up for GaoGaiGar's slow start. Not the only Super Robot series I've watched and loved though. Oh, and everyone should watch Gunbuster. Now. Don't even argue. Watch it now. If you've already watched it, watch it again, or I'll mass ban everyone. MWAHAHAHAHA! It's Genki Girl + God - Chronology that makes sense. Disappearance will have to run on something else though, not that it won't be awesome. People will be disappointed if they expect more of the same though. Rebuild had glowing Eva units. Going berserk. That alone makes it awesome. And forget your Revoltech MP Eva. I have a Revoltech Shin Getter Robo and a Revoltech Gurren Lagann.

Ramiel upgraded was bloody cool.
Kimochi warui got mistranslated.
Read the Haruhi Light Novels (though the first 6 eps actually follow it quite faithfully)

You do realise what exactly Asuka means by kimochi warui is debatable right?
And go watch Gunbuster.

there are 9001 interpretations of what she meant with that kimochi warui, maybe they just said hell we'll give it literal translation
genki girl wasn't pioneered by haruhi la, like ranma female is more genki than her plz. the only thing they did was the chronology thing (which was good i admit)
my sis bought the entire set of light novels, but its in fan ti so i lazy read.
screw your shin getter and GL, i have REVOLTECH YOTSUBA.

Humm.. As long as the anime doesn't have that many explicit love triangles, I'll watch it. Love triangles make me mad. I wouldn't mind it so much if the object of their affections weren't stereotypically oblivious also.
And thus, my favorites series either don't have those triangles, or don't have romance at all. Yey.
