By that account, Witch hunter Robin is the Burial of animes, and The Artful Dodger is the 2-step equivalent of Lucky Star.

There seems to be an inordinate amount of moe crap coming out this summer.

That aside, Gainax, CLAMP, and Madhouse never go wrong. Cromartie High School is one of my favorite comedies too, so I'm looking forward to whatever it's creator is working on.

I'm okay with moe (I'm a KyoAni fan after all) but again it's all based on the studio. Brain's Base, Gainax and Production IG has done moe stuff as well and as long as it's good and has a production value, it'd watch it. And I tend to avoid shit moe animes from Studio Feel most of the time.

Kind of like UK TV as well. There are good everyday dramas with good budgets and then, there's The Only Way to Essex.
