Ah, I should have mentioned Fullmetal Alchemist, that is another one he has watched and really liked. We watched a bit of Full Metal Panic, but he really doesn't like the mecha thing for some reason. *shrug*
Soul Eater he tried but passed along that it was too fan-servicey to watch. I'll have to look into watching it past the first three episodes, thanks for the tip!
We also tried Inuyasha, but I think the plot moved too slowly for him, he likes fast exposition, fast plot, lots of action. Read or Die is an excellent suggestion, I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner. And you're right, the dub is a good one.
Nanoha we watched an episode of because we had seen an amv and it looked like it had lots of magical action, but if I remember right, it was too cutesy for him.
I'll have to look into the other suggestions. Thanks so much, keep them coming!
