So i've been awake for quite some time now because i decided to watch anime on Netflix that i had started at one point but never finished for whatever reason.

In Order:

Baccano! episodes 14-16, pretty much the 3 ovas. I don't know why it took so long for me to see these, especially since i LOVE the show. These were great. I mean i laughed a lot, some awkwardly profound quotes in there, for anime at least, grim little moments of closure and just fun times all over. Even in a short time span and in lighter times the characters are just too cool to watch.
And the whole Carol thing at the end was a nice touch.

Black Butler 7-24 + the ova. Ya this felt like a million years, but i've heard a lot about the show and how good it was so i decided now is the time to watch it. It was OK. It was fairly boring for a monster of the week style show which is never good, it took 20 episodes for any real explanation on the other servants of the main character and i figured out exactly what the finale would be really early on which sucked.... The action in it was only ok at best and, unless it happens in season 2 which im unsure as to how that exists, i really don't like the "mystery" behind Sebastion's real form. It was more annoying than mysterious. And "I'm one HELL of a butler." got annoying REAL fast, like faster than Believe It! fast.
However i like their attempt to make the entire dub sound like their actual accents, even if some just hurt my ears. It was pretty to look at overall and i do like how dark it was, such as it's willingness to kill characters. The first time i laughed however was when , threw me for a loop lol. Wish we got to see boobs though, would've been funny to see a bishounen anime with female only nudity. Anyway it wasn't bad.

Dance in the Vampire Bund episodes 5-12. I stopped the show when it was licensed at 2, watched 2 more over the whole censorship debacle and the stopped again when they announced it would indeed be uncensored.
THIS SHOW WAS AWESOME, i totally forgot how much i liked it and how much i remembered from the first 4 episodes because of that. It was kind of slow to begin with but i really liked it when it picked up. SHAFT is of course amazing, the action was cool, the characters and show itself of course was dark and cool. A lot of tits and blood and i liked that as well, gruesome situations at times.
I wish there was more of it, i mean they left it open to continue but which sorta ruins any surprise murder or what not..... At first i though "Noooooooo don't go the Blood + twin route" and than it ended and i was like......... "Nooooooo gimme more".

FMP Fumoffu. Ya that's right 10 years ago, that's how far back i went. I own this show and i remembered i never finished the final disc..... It's been SO LONG that i just said i'll rewatch all of it and holy crap i forgot how amazing FMP Fumoffu was. Hell how great FMP is in general. This was one of the earlier series that i just looked at and went "Damn this show looks good" and the show itself was great as well. KyoAni did it so that only makes sense but cmon.
But Episode 2 part 2 is still one of the funnier 13 minute segments i've seen from anything ever lol, i love it and im not sure why. The entire thing was hilarious and the final episodes i never watched were good too, especially the last one. I also forgot i loved the theme songs for the show, is it me or does KyoAni have to have great music for their shows? Whether they're OP/ED or just in show songs, all their shows has one awesome or beautiful song.
I still need to see Second Raid but it's not on Netflix...... and im poor. AND i see there's nothing again after that so i REALLY want a good ending otherwise im gonna cry.... i LOVE FMP

And im still up.... thinking of going onto something else......

Rosario + Vampire 2, Regios, Shikabane Hime, Sacred Blacksmith, xxxHolic, Birdy the Mighty season 2, Phantom, Hetalia, Hero Tales, Sousei no Aquarion, Xam'd, Casshern Sins and Sengoku Basara are all shows that fall in the started but never finished list.....

Thinking of going with Rosario, Shikabane or xxxHolic to continue with the theme i obviously had going of dark/monster shows before Fumoffu.
 
So I just watched Okami-san and her seven companions. I can't be sure if it was created for young men or for teenage girls. I'm not sure who the intended audience was exactly but the possibility exists that I may have just devoured the Japanese equivalent of Archie's digest. That said, I enjoyed it thoroughly. Should I feel bad about that? Maybe. But I'm still gonna recommend it to you.
Aw, man, this was screening at Anime Boston this weekend and I was planning to see it...but I skipped it for lunch instead. :(
 
Anyone started watching Accel World?
