Gregory's Top Ten

I has been hinted at that I should post a list of my top ten favorite shows. I tend to have a hard time doing them because I'm watching new things all the time and the list feels like it is changing constantly. So this is my current top ten list.
10. Ai Yori Aoshi - A show which just finished up within the last month. I think overall it was one of the better shows of the last year.
9. Hikaru no Go - I never would have thought I'd find a show about a board game interesting at all. But it is. I find myself waiting impatiently for each episode to come out.
8. Alien 9 - A show that starts off seeming like a cute little show and just ends up getting kind of weird and disturbing. I loved it though. I kind of wish they'd do some more episodes so I could figure out what exactly was happening.
7. FLCL - Gainax at some of its WEIRDEST.
6. Azumanga Daioh - Based on a four panel comic strip, this show is great. It's one of the funnest things I've watched in a while. I want a stuffed version of the cat that goes CHOMP on Sakaki's hand.
5. Cowboy Bebop - It's a classic. One of the first shows I ever bought on DVD.
4. Escaflowne - Another classic, I was collecting this and Bebop at the same time. I credit them with getting me hooked on anime.
3. Saishu Heiki Kanojo (aka Saikano) - Beautifully animated, very good writing, depressing as all hell.
2. Cardcaptor Sakura - I just love this show so much. It's fun, cute, silly at times. And it's CLAMP. What more could one ask for?

and at the top of my list.

1. Fruits Basket - The story of a girl and her friends that turn into animals when they are hugged. Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes tragic, sometimes disturbing. But always good.

Honorable Mentions go to Full Metal Panic!, Angelic Layer, and Trigun. And probably others that I'm forgetting about right now.

I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE BUT I CAN FEEL A STRONG BOND WITH YOU. I CAN IMAGINE BOTH OF US WATCHING FRUIT BASKET OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I HAVE WATCHED FRUIT BASKET MORE TIMES THAN I CAN REMEMBER. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE OVA TO COME OUT. THE TOP 10 ANIME FOR ME IS ALSO FRUIT BASKET, HIKARU NO GO, AI YOSHI, ESCAFLOWNE, & COWBOY BEBOP WHICH IS ON YOUR LIST. I WONDER WHY HAVE'T YOU MENTIONED ABOUT HUNTER X HUNTER WHICH IS ONE OF MY MOST FAVROUTE.
