This is a key thing too, Gonzo's productions usually aren't too great all around... but yeah I personally liked Gankutsuou. That said it felt a lot like Death Note with how hilariously over the top the drama got sometimes, but I enjoyed it for that myself.

I'll look into it. (as long as it isn't anything... nasty... for lack of a better word.)

I'm just watching some Detective Conan right now. I like it quite a bit. After Deathnote and Evangelion, some lightheartedness is certainly welcome.

Other then a few boobtacular moments, there's nothing nasty in it.

The whole reason I was never able to get into FMP was that the highschool comedy aspect felt way too over-the-top compared to the more serious parts of the story. I can handle one mode or the other, but switching between the two like that killed my suspension of disbelief. It sucks, 'cause I really wanted to like that one.
You gotta admit though man, when a series has a 16 year old girl running a secret army and some undercover agent going into high school... should you take the show THAT seriously? :lol: :P
Sounds like Angel Beats!

I raise you ... Irresponsible Captain Tylor! Probably my favorite comedy. Heh.

Anyways Opa, I mentioned Lagann since it's from the same studio and kind has that weird wacky artstyle as well. Personally I didn't like FLCL that much, but I love Lagann. It's really over the top mecha about piercing the heavens with your drill.

There aren't many series I like that centered around comedy. I don't mind comedy, but none of my favorites really have that as the main focus. I'm not sure what my favorite comedy is. Hmm.
