Okay... this is just a short list of some Anime that I've seen that I believe is outstanding and full of EPIC win.. so if you haven't seen any of these titles, I suggest you watch em when you have the time! If not perhaps I could show a few of these during one of the meetups!
My list of "recommended" Anime (This list may grow as time passes)
Fate/Stay Night
Full Metal Panic!
Full Metal Panic! TSR (The Second Raid)
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (Great series! LOVED it.. it's so epic.. xD)
Genshiken (Seasons 1 and 2)
Seto no Hanayome
Midori no Hibi (I'm tempted to show this to the group.. it's a great funny and romantic lil series. only 12 episodes!)
Gantz (up to episode 21 or so.. then finish it off w/ the manga)
Claymore (great series till about episode 20 which is when the anime splits away from the manga... Finish up the manga after episode 20 or so.. i'll have to recheck on which episode it was..)

Hmm... I tried watching FMP but I found that it didn't follow the manga much at all and I had read most of it first. TTGL definitely one of the most epic animes out there! I will have to check out Genshiken. Sounds very interesting.
I would recommend the following:
DearS
Yu Yu Hakusho
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion
Code Geass: R2 (Second season. I think it takes place about a year after the first season.)
Slayers (Any of the 3 season - Slayers, Slayers Next, Slayers Try- )
El Hazard/The Wanderers (1st season only)
Sailor Moon (All 5 season - Sailor Moon, Sailor Moon R, Sailor Moon S, Sailor Moon SuperS, Sailor Moon Stars - Perfect magical girl anime for anyone looking for a good one to start out in the genre.)
Lucky Star
That's all I can think of right now. I might post more laterz. ^.^

I'd have to say for Code Geass season 2 was not as dark and good as S1. I heard the author walked out on Sunrise because they didn't want to do some certain things and that's why it feels so rushed. I'm downloading TTGL right now, heard it was amazing. I'll be posting my own reviews up in a bit have some things to do.

I watched the first three episodes of Fate/Stay Night today, with plans for more. I also found several others, including a few I've been looking for on DVD (they exist) but either couldn't find or couldn't afford. Speaking of which, would you happen to know how I could find episodes of Noir past episode 10?

My number one recommendation is Neon Genesis Evangelion, but only if you have a lot of time on your hands and a very strong mind because it is confusing as hell. Gunbuster and Diebuster are awesome series as well. I just started watching Birdy: Decode which is pretty kick ass. It's not anime but Red V.S Blue is freaking hilarious.

Genshiken is awesome. ^.^
Cowboy Bebop is like the greatest anime ever. Also the first one I cosplayed from.
I so don't recommend G Gundam. ESPECIALLY dubbed. It's so bad. Hubby-kun is currently watching it dubbed and I want to rip off my ears with how bad the dubbing is.

Too much shoot-em-up-bang-bang usually bores me, but there was just something about Bepop that kept me coming back....I wish there was a soundtrack with all those beat songs on it, too!
I've seen some Lucky Star. My favorite moment was in the episode when they were in the cafe and had a staring contest with Konata. The sisters bust out laughing. Then their other friend came over, and they said, "Konata, show her that funny face you made." And she did, and they all bust out laughing, but her back was to "the camera" so you couldn't see it, leaving the whole thing to your imagination! OMG I thought that was so funny!!

Hey now .. theres nothing wrong with G Gundam.. that series is EPIC!!!!!! Made of PURE 100% Win of amazingness.... xD
I'm not much of a fan for Cowboy Bebop... I thought Outlaw Star was a lot better than Bebop.

I'm so lame I sit and listen to G Gundam as I build a mecha model, and get mad when Konata makes fun of the dubbing. B***H YOU CAN'T BEAT THE SHINING FINGER!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

You mean the infected penis right? XD
Outlaw Star is amazing! ^.^ Such an awesome series.
For those who don't mind shonen-ai Sukisyo! (Suki na mono wa suki dakara shouganai:I like what I like so there!) is a great series. 12 episodes plus the OVA makes 13. I mean yeah the shonen-ai is the main point as there are no girls in the series, but if you ignore the shonen-ai it's very funny. I mean at least the first 4 episodes are packed with humor. The ones after that have humor in it, but it becomes more serious.

I don't mind.... BL is awesome! Must be a girl thing.
OMG, though, that's just what I needed - something else to distract me from my schoolwork. lol
