(list of what I've seen and how I rated it can be seen at http://www.anime-planet.com/users/phelkis/anime )

Also looking for a new novel or series of books to get into (preferably in audio book version). Since I sprained my ankle I've been spending a lil more time in bed since its easier to keep my foot up there, and ended up going through most of what I wanted to read x_x (Just finished up two good Suzanne Collins series)

[Sugami]

Tales of Vesperia Movie - I played the demo and didn't like it, watched the movie and makes me want to get the game now Think if you had played the game this would be a definite must see but it's still a great watch nonetheless.
Durarara!! - It's awesome, not like anything you've seen before (probably), maybe Bacanno actually since it has a big cast.
K-ON!! (season 2) - If you liked the first season you'll love this, plus it's twice the length
Kampfer - Big breasted schoolgirls fighting it out, very funny.
Lucky Star - like a more off-the-wall K-ON! I suppose, funny and random.
Index s2 - If you liked the first then you'll want to watch this
Railgun - ditto above
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - only if you've seen season 1, concerning Endless Eight don't bother watching all of it unless you really want to, only need to see ep2, 3 and 9. Worth watching the movie.
Angel Beats - hilarious, interesting story too with a touching ending.
Umineko - If you like messed-up gory anime that doesn't seem to make much sense
Slayers Revolution - must for Slayers fans.

Quite a few more on that list that I'd recommend as well. Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt you can remove from that list and your computer, it's terrible and not worth your time.

[MikaMeow]

I actually really liked Tales of Vesperia the game, it made the chars feel a lil more alive with the random chatting they'd end up doing while you wander around, and how every city seemed to have lots of things happening when you got there. But for some reason I stopped playing just before the final boss. I actually seem to have like 5 RPGs where I'm paused right before the boss and haven't bothered to play it in a while, lol. Vesperia, FFX-2, FF12, FF13, think theres another, just can't remember right now.
Looks like I got some watching to do.

Perusing your list, these are the stuff I watched before. The nice thing about anime is you can get a very good idea of what the series is with just the first few minutes of the first episode so I won't tell you why I'd watch a show and maybe a few of them will surprise you.

Sola - kinda cute but sad supernatural thingy.
Vexille - nice CG
Durarara - fun
Minami-ke - mindless fun... ignore the deteriorating animation quality.
Bokura ga Ita - either you like it or you want to kill the people in it.
Shikabane_Hime_Aka - typical anime horror/action flick.
Chi's_New_Address - meow... but do you really like cats named Pee?
El Hazard - The Wanderers (TV) - umm.....
Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood - a classic, must watch
Kaiba - existential anime!
Kaichou wa Maid-sama - funny and fun.
Kampfer - you must be desperate
K-ON Season 2 - too much moe can get you diabetes
Ladies versus Butlers - umm.. are you a guy in RL?
Lucky Star - mindless fun!
Mayoi Neko Overrun - mindless fun + lesbianism (you just know Sugami googled this)
Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt - fun
Railgun - cute fun
Index season 2 - is the season over yet? Perhaps better to wait till you can watch it all in one shot?
Sci-Fi Harry - weird but good, kinda like FLCL but serious
Seitokai Yakuindomo - kiddie version of K-On?
Sora no Woto - K-On clone.. with an actual plot towards the end. I purred.
The Sacred Blacksmith - typical fantasy anime fodder.
The Tatami Galaxy - nice
Angel Beats - a classic perhaps?
Umineko - ok I guess.
Kimi ga Nozomu Eien OVA - ok I guess.
Slayers Revolution - There will not be any more after this.
Mahou_Shoujotai_-_Alice_Adventures - fun, it might seem geared towards kids but nice nonetheless... note the lip-synching is actually done properly in this anime.
Haibane.Renmei - good
Kanokon - bad
Jigoku_Shoujo - ok.
Black Rock Shooter - ok
Kodomo no Jikan - delete this off your HDD before you get arrested for being a lolicon... but I'm in Japan so it's ok.
Kamichu - a classic
Kara_no_Kyoukai_-_The_Garden_of_Sinners - a pity Fate Stay Night wasn't this good.
Gunbuster - classic
Zegapain - typical sci-fi anime
Eureka 7 - classic kinda. The art-style is nice.
Simoun - underappreciated. Something guys would hate, girls would like.

Black Heaven - watch!
Chu-Bra - .... Sugs hacked your account didn't he?
Higurashi_no_Naku_Koro_ni_Kai - meow.
Wagaya no Oinari-sama - the manga is better. Sleeping is better.
Kamen no Maid Guy - watch once for the laughs.
Kemeko DX - as above
Popotan - classic

[Sugami]

I didn't really like the combat in Tales of Vesperia, I like my JRPG turn based in one way or another I also got stuck on some boss thing in the demo and got frustrated by how impossibly hard it seemed.

Chi's_New_Address - meow... but do you really like cats named Pee?

I saw one episode and deemed it too kiddy for my tastes. There's a couple of what I'd call "kiddy" anime that are quite fun, Yumeiro Patisserie comes to mind.

Kampfer - you must be desperate

Definitely one for the boys Funny and has some good action but full of fan service.

Mayoi Neko Overrun - mindless fun + lesbianism (you just know Sugami googled this)

I've already seen it The "neko" part is what drew me to it originally, have you seen Nyan Koi? Maybe not as mindless but same kind of random silly fun

Seitokai Yakuindomo - kiddie version of K-On?

Kiddy? More the other way around, you know how many sexual innuendos they make in that show? My favourite episode was the xmas one, where the guy seems to get given 3 vibrators (heavily hinted) and one was from Santa

Chu-Bra - .... Sugs hacked your account didn't he?

No idea what that is

[Shirai]

Slayers Revolution - There will not be any more after this.

Having seen everything else Slayers, how is this one?
I heard it's not as good as the other series.

Eureka 7 - classic kinda. The art-style is nice.

Best description I can come up with for this series despite its nice artstyle:
Rentooooon!
Eurekaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[MikaMeow]

I heard mixed results about Slayers Revolution too.. that theres some really annoying new pokemon like character or something.

Yeah I saw Nyan Koi, I thought it was alright. Most Harem series without a decent storyline kinda bore me tho.

Looks like I have alot of stuff to check out :p
So much to watch, so little time!

[Asphe]

Fan service. I really hate it, yet as time goes by, it gets pasted in more and more. When you make your profits and much of your production costs from disc sales and the biggest reason to buy the discs is the "dehumidification" ... almost makes you want to agree with Ishihara.

I don't mind a bit, but too many shows were ruined for me by including so much of it. Negima... ok. Kampfer... way too much. I prefer something like My-Otome/Hime type as the maximum I can endure. How would boys like it if 'ass-shots' of bishonen were the order of the day... we girls get Kimitodoke instead.

[MikaMeow]

Yeah, fan service can get a bit excessive.. check out High School of the Dead.. zombies are killing people left and right, and yet they take the time to flash a whole bunch of panty shots.. it was rather out of place. Then the whole scene with the shooting a bullet as two huge boobs bounce and let the bullet go between them without hitting her. Tho overall I did enjoy that series.
Its just the ones with very little plot and way too much fanservice that I just don't much like anymore, if I wanted that much fanservice, I'd rather just watch porn or something :p

[Sugami]

Some shows were made with fan service in mind, Kampfer is one of them

[MikaMeow]

I just finished Durarara, and it was pretty damn good (took untill the 6th or so ep before I was finally hooked).
I liked how they had lotsa different animes characters in the background as posters/figures/manga/bilboards etc. I definately noticed alot of posters and movie clips from Baccano, and a few from Spice & Wolf, Ladies vs Butler, and a few others I didn't recognize.

[Asphe]

Yeah... you'd have to be a real 'otaku' heh heh to fully enjoy this series. A lot of it is not as obvious as say those gundam references in Keroro. I probably watched each episode 1.5x ...
