Om Nom Nam

Here are a few more anime I've watched recently:

Negima!
A ten year old boy named Negi shows up at an all girl school as a professor for a middle school class, but it turns out he's a wizard. This anime focuses on Negi's relationships with the girls and how almost all of his students end up having crushes on him. There are actually two different series, but they're both more or less the same but with different plots. The second series has a unique animation style and a really cool opening song (not really a song, but there's music with some of the characters saying poetic stuff that sounds good together). Overall, though, this anime was not really very entertaining.

Toradora!
A story of a nice boy whom has the face of his father whom was a terrifying gangster. He, however, resents his father and wants everyone to see him for who he really was, not how he looked. Unfortunately, he ends up being feared all over the place and at the beginning of the new school year, he runs into a girl whom is in the same situation as he. His name is Ryuji and hers is Taiga (which earns her the nickname Palmtop Tiger). They both find out that they like each other's best friends, so they quickly put there differences aside and try to help each other out (and become great friends while doing so). This was a fun series that had its serious moments, but I would highly recommend it.

Solty Rei
A bounty hunter named Roy is saved by a mysterious young girl while out on one of his assignments, and due to various circumstances, he adopts her. However, he is out on a personal mission to find his daughter whom went missing years ago during the "Blast Fall," an odd phenomena that left many dead, others wounded, and even more missing. This anime is decent, but it's pretty slow at first and never quite got my complete attention.

Spice and Wolf
A traveling merchant, Kraft Lawrence, is visiting a farm town where a childhood friend lives so he can sell some wheat he was carrying. Before he left, he comes upon a women who claims to be Holo, the wise wolf who has been blessing the town. Holo says that the townsfolk no longer wish to be reliant on her, so she wants to travel back north where she is from. This anime is about their travel north, the various exchanges Kraft makes as a merchant (and how Holo helps him with some of them), the trouble they get into, and their relationship. This anime is exceptionally well done (even though it sounds a little boring), so I would recommend it to anyone.

Kurokami
In the world, there exists a system called the Doppleliner where there are three copies of each individual on Earth. Two are known as Subs and one is known as a Main Root. If two subs meet or see their root, they will die and their power is transferred to the root. Plagued by many close ones dying from this system, Keita Ibuki tries to stay away from people so he won't have to bear the weight of more people dying. He thinks this way until he meets a Terra Guardian named Kuro. They form a pact to save his life and begin an adventure to stop Kuro's brother from destroying the world and to stop the doppleliner system. This anime is pretty good, but Keita is really annoying in the first half of the series because he doesn't really do anything to help Kuro when she's fighting. He gets better, and so does the series, later. One character really stood out to me; her name is Nam. She shows up near the end and is a special Terra Guardian who records history; however, what makes her really funny is that she's on a constant quest to find delicious food. She's constantly trying to steal JoyJoy bars from other characters.

Vision of Escaflowne
I heard this series was supposed to be pretty good, so I decided to start watching it. I've only seen one episode so far and it looks like a typical 90's romance adventure anime. It's really similar to Fushigi Yuugi so far in that a girl gets sucked into a sort of medieval fantasy world and is probably going to fall in love with the boy she meets. I personally did not like Fushigi Yuugi all that much, so hopefully Escaflowne will be better.
