I did, with K-ON!, which isn't exactly acclaimed for being the most intriguining show in history but is popular none the less. It's one of my most enjoyable series by far with the cast all being broad shades of cute, fun, and comedic. It's the writing I appreciate, and I find the dialogue to be very clever unlike a lot of shows. I've always felt this way though: just give me SOMETHING to appreciate, something to latch on to and I'm watching the show.

Not for anyone outside of Japan. As an America viewer I feel like anime is the most "take it or leave it" medium I've ever indulged in. Aside from a few very bleak instances we have no say. Be that as it may I think the industry deserves a lot more harsh of an analysis than we've been accustomed to giving as fans.

All shows I've put on a backlog. It's more of a time issue than anything else.
