I've completed the first 3 seasons of Sailor Moon as well. (I may get to SuperS and Stars in the next year or so.) The R series was actually my favorite of the first 3. The Negamoon family arc actually being my favorite. The first series is close behind.
S while still enjoyable was comparatively not as good, though the new heroines were interesting, the enemies on the other hand I did not find interesting. In earlier seasons you could get something of an emotional attachment to some of the villains. The show has always been episodic monster of the week bad guy of the month but in S the villains seemed even more like cannon fodder then their predecessors. lol. I didn't get too attached to any of them.
As for Yu Yu Hakusho I've seen about 75% of it back in the day and its a good show. Probably as good as Shounen action gets. (which isn't my cup of tea anymore) I haven't gotten around to finishing it because it is so long and I haven't been motivated to keep up on such a long haul.

As for me, I guess I'll make a recent anime projects post.
I'm slowly getting through the 2nd half of Magic Knight Rayearth. I'm not enjoying it very much. The first half though kind of cheesy was pretty decent. The 2nd half... though it introduces some mildly interesting new characters and ideas, feels very long, dragged out and unnecessary and it just doesn't play out well at all. And the cheese factor has multiplied 2 or 3 times. They should have left it as complete at the end of the first half and it would've been fine..
This Spring season I'm also watching....
Acchi Kochi - http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=8890
I was pretty much spot on with this. It's no masterpiece but could please fans of the slice of life/comedy genre. There's also a very weak romantic element that probably won't develop into much. If you don't like the characters though you'll have a hard time staying on board.
Mysterious Girlfriend X - http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=8853
Show is maintaining my interest. Main girl is great. Art Style and music are also nice. Pacing is kind of slow but enough happens in each episode to keep it from getting boring. It's probably my favorite show so far this season but its only perhaps slightly above average so far.
Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos - http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=8719
Picked this one up by rec from a buddy. The premise is kind of ridiculous but if you don't take it too seriously it could be a fun ride. It's kind of an otaku-bait show but it's proved to be pretty funny at times and the voice cast is fantastic. I'm especially pleased with Kana Asumi's performance as the main girl Nyaruko. It's great hearing her in such an over the top hyper active character role. Those familiar with a good amount of anime may recognize her. She has also played Popura in Working! and Yuno in Hidamari Sketch among many others.
Also still hording Fate/Zero 2 episodes.

I also watched this today....

Short eps series. Can be completed in less then an hour. If you're a fan of wacky off the wall humor like Hare + Guu and Di Gi Charat I'd recommend it, though it was not as good as either one. I enjoyed it and got a few good laughs. It can be picked up off BakaBT |
