...Kodomo no Omocha. (Or "Kodocha") Admittedly, 
when I was told it was about a bunch of 11 year 
olds and their pre-teen angst, I was a bit 
skeptical. It's insane, it's fast, it's difficult 
to categorize, and it's an instant hook. Even my 
very non-anime roommate went bezerk over it and 
ended up watching all my fansubs (37 eps) in ONE 
sitting. 

And to keep it somewhat relevant in here: *Is 
still searching for that great shot of Hayama* 
Dang, cels of that boy are elusive!

And oh yeah, last I heard the entire series is 
now out on DVD...rock on. :)
