Speaking of ghosts...
Has anyone seen the series called Ghost Hound? I was watching subbed versions off of Youtube, but the entire show wasn't up yet.

that would be "akira" then. great manga (jap. comic) and probably the best anime (film)

had a little more time lately
Elfen Lied: 2/5 totally horrible characters being absolutely two-dimensional with no progress at all (which is so damn important in anime). it seems like the only thing they are able to do is to say "sorry" and "i love you". the plot isn't the most artistic either but the fact that we discover past-connections between the characters build up a little tension. the graphics aren't really that bad either but they are rather mediocre. in my opinion one of the most overrated animes ever, probably due to the violence and body-dismembering + naked tits.
Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan: 4/5 personally one of my all time favs right now. i mean come on, how can't you love an anime where the plot is about angels from the future trying to stop a boy who will discover his pedophile feelings and creates a virus which doesn't allow girls to get older than a certain (low) age. genious. the graphics good, action all the time, a lot of graphical violence and loli. and the creators didn't even make the mistake of making it longer so the ideas don't burn out that fast. so we have a compact 4 ova series. in fact i think i'll watch it again tonight.
Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya 5/5 when i watched the first episode i thought of it being a boring "slice-of-life-high-school-shojo-fag-anime" like dozens. couldn't understand the huge popularity either. but after a few episodes i changed my mind. the story is just awesome as is the storytelling by itself. the creators make you watch it in manner which creates a mixed timeline which adds more drama and lets the thing really get tense. there is a wiki site where everything about it is explained. the characters are greatly designed too with maybe the tsundere getting weak a bit fast (i lately discovered that you can rate an anime by the time the tsundere needs to "crack up"). the graphics are pure awesome, the music is fine and everything. definately a series that everybody should watch.

Lucky Star: 4/5 that was a difficult one. a lot of people consider this series ver y boring and uninteresting. the problem is that you should consider watching this series after you have a bit of experience with anime in itself, you know the culture and most importantly - have watched a lot of anime before. the series constantly mocks other animes and japanese movies, so only when you have seen them you'll understand the jokes. quite an ambitious series - i personally love it.
Sky Girls: 3/5 this mark is probably the highest this series has ever gained in a review and i can quite understand it but still i kinda like that series and am also a bit sad about it. when you watch the ova (which was intented to be the only output of sky girls) you think - god this is great. you have 16 year old girls in suits that cover the body less than an average handkerchief and mechas. come on - loli and mecha - total win factor. but the problem is that this is win for a 30 minutes ova, not a whole series. the creators due to several requests (come on it's LOLI AND MECHA) made a series consisting of 26 episodes of it. the problem is that they just but the ova into little pieces and stretched it over 26 episodes not really adding anything new. so we get a bit of character development which is fine but it happens in a lot of "filler episodes" where nothing really happens. so we got the obligatory "hit spring" episode which is fine but the first enemy appears in like the 5th or later episode. the thing is that the creators thought they could attach you to the screen by giving you the occasional teen ass, some fight here, some drama there but not having a single trump card up their sleeve. the worst thing is that nothing really lacks in this series and it had a lot of potential. the graphics are awesome with just a few cgi's, the music is great. the ending of the series speeds up a little but there it's already too late. i really like this series and hate the fact that they fucked it.

also there is a dvd special to sky girls where you have 9 episodes of 10 minutes of the girls fishing in their slutty suits. fishing. like fishing fish. no monsters. fish.
Dead Leaves: 6/5 watched due recommendation by some xltronician (cygnus) this movie is absolutely awesome. the graphical style is causing you epilepsy when you watch it too often, the speed and action of it is just impossible to keep up. i don't want to talk about it too much really it's just a must see.

i would really want to recommend something in the anime department but i completely switched to watching only mediocre stuff. if the words "loli, ecchi, pantsu" appear in the description i just can't say no.
although i had some free time between looking at colourful pantsu on kiddie asses:
darker than black - technically maybe not the best looking anime but a great story
bakemonogatari - this years popularity-hit in japan. but it earns it.

the girl who leapt through time - 8/10 very awesome graphics. bit of a tearjerker - something you might show your gf and still enjoy yourself with the time-leaping-mindfuckery.

I love the manga but have yet to see the anime. The author commited suicide after only 1 or two books. I think her husband kept the series going.

Everyone should see KAIBA, by Masaaki Yuasa (himself director of Mind Game and Kemonozume, as well as involved with Cat Soup).
Kaiba (infact everything by this man) is the anime for anime viewers who's gotten bored with anime clichés. yes.
