Dear EarlyMon
Though your suggestions are quite awesome
,please keep the time between suggestions atleast one week 
. It's difficult to find time and keep up with your speed
of animes . Sincerely
The guy who hangs around here .
P.S
Ignore everything said above .Keep them coming .I will catch up soon after reading one piece which is tiring
(I read bleach all of them in one day but have barely scrapped 200.Nico joined the crew and Luffy is fighting/thrashing Bellamy )Also +1 for Naruto vs Luffy .
/naruto
[Hide] That chapter makes up for no bleach last week and this week One of the best chapters I've read in a while.[/spoiler]
One piece I am on chapter 610 or so and should be current tomorrow. At this point I think luffy vs naruto wouldn't be much of a match if luffy saw naruto as trying to prevent him from becoming pirate king yeah I said it.
I watched darker than black this weekend it was pretty good. Been sick so Netflix has been a nice friend.
My next avatar if for this thread
I call it otaku fail

The white sea and gods arc is quite tiring to read .gods and angels and stuff was a bit slow after the action packed b.w. arc
My friend told me it gets slow at times which is annoying .
Currently on the manga when the god is injured .
Plus this is the first manga I am reading by volume .

I'm just going to mention, the imagery in Demonbane leaves little to be desired.
*cough*
*cough*
By the way, probably everyone got my Big O reference earlier, but if somehow not...
I found Demonbane wanting, but it did have good artwork.
I think that I will conditionally recommend 07 Ghost. It was textured but sometimes too clean. To draw an analogy, it was like Mona Lisa Overdrive instead of Neuromancer. Sorry, that reference will only make sense to William Gibson fans, but it is the best parallel I could draw, and possibly accurate.
Not of the caliber of other stories here, but not too bad. Give 2 episodes a go to decide before investing time.
I didn't regret it, it was an engaging escape and a little different.

Durarara is at maximum creepy.
When the protagonist got into his tirade about love being about ownership and if the girl was lucky enough and gave herself completely (no guarantees), he might help her get her head on her body back, I nearly retched. I can't even stand seeing it on my tv guide.

Ahh
you are worse than me at chewing up content. I almost thought I was going to be able to get a week break between trying to watch/read something but DRRR looks interesting. I've figured out in a weekend I can watch a full 26 episode series and still be somewhat productive Yet another series to add to my list
I'm wondering if I should comment on Dragon Crisis... It was over before I realized I wasn't sure about it and had gotten roped in.
I imagine our consumption rates are similar. I finished 07 Ghost just before the thread started, forgot to mention it.
I've pulled in a few episodes of 11eyes, still deciding on this one. Living nightmares under a black moon - may be interesting.
I watched a part of Martian Successor Nadesico: Prince of Darkness. It jumped around bizarrely, much like many Japanese TV shows, but it's worth a gander for the parts taking place in what appears to be our time. I couldn't help but feel that that the settings were exactly faithful to a number of Tokyo suburbs I've walked around, and the night scenes on the train captured the feel and exact color scheme of one the smaller rail companies. Name is on the tip of my tongue - maybe Keio. Anyway, for about 10 minutes, I felt like I was back.
Yes, there is a rail line with that green and white interior scheme, and yes, the colors really look like that. And the oddly angular appearance of the train interiors at night - accurate.

I think it may have been a filler arc and they wanted to show off how powerful everyone got. I rather liked fat Usopp but he got crazy powerful as well. I think smoker will keep progressing in ranks and Aokiji very well could become a revolutionary but that will make his relationship with Robin even more screwed up

With the Poseidon,Pluton and Uranus reference ,it's far from filler arc . I want to see more Luffy Haki .Killing Ace and Whitebeard in one arc was damn powerful . All in all ,one piece has the best Time skips ever .Bleach is worst . Naruto is pale compared to One piece .
The villians are awesome .
Akainu who killed ace ,Blackbeard who made an idiot of the marines and yet to be seen crew .

Has anyone subscribed to Shonen Jump Alpha? It looks like it will be the English version of Shonen Jump but the chapters are 2 weeks delayed so I am kinda hesitant to jump onboard (see what I did there)
Agreed, the time jump in OP is much better than Naruto where everyone did get more powerful but I still don't think we have seen everyone's advancements or Bleach where there was no change other than Ichigo got used to being "normal" again.
I still think it mostly a filler arc, but it does set up the rivalry of the strawhats and Big Mom pirates. I could see it becoming a pirate war between Shank's crew (if the strawhats meet up with Shanks before the SHTF) and Big Mom's crew. I am sure Shirahoshi will be a major player in the future since she is one of the 3 weapons.
I am also waiting for Jinbe to join up with the strawhats. I think Luffy's declaration of war with Big Mom saying he will make Fishman Island his territory may speed that up some

So, I checked and 07 Ghost is available as manga as well as anime.
I think I'll give it another plug, just skimming some of the other stuff, maybe you cats will enjoy it as I did after all.
Here's the opening credits - likely enough to show enough art and some elements to suggest if it's interesting or not, without spoiling -

Looks pretty. I will be checking it out. I tend to be more likely to read mangas than anime due to the amount of time they take. If I watch a series I usually end up reading the manga sometime as well
Still trying to make the transition to manga....
It isn't for everyone. I like manga because I can go at my own pace and in the same 20 mins it takes to watch an episode I can read a few chapters of the manga...it is also easier to stop the manga and start reading it again after one of my kids try to distract me
Plus, I think that the different media light up different parts of our brains.
