What are some shows you are watching/finished recently that are not currently airing?

I always liked reading through this thread on /r/anime. Hope I'm not breaking some sort of etiquette by creating it here. I guess if kbin keeps exploding, this will get buried in a few days anyway.

  • Aku no Hana (2013) - A psychological horror/drama about a boy and a girl who commit acts of social rebellion together in order to uncover the "deviant" sides of their souls. Worth watching for: its unique rotoscoped animation, unique concept, sense of constantly impending doom, soundtrack, and its secondhand cringe that rivals and surpasses that of NHK ni Youkoso! It's not a show you turn on to be lightly entertained by, it's a little heavier and not good second-screen watching. Caveat: the anime adaptation is incomplete - it teases a 2nd season that presumably would have given us a proper conclusion
  • Chobits (2002) - A sci-fi rom-com set in a 2002 version of Japan where lifelike androids called Persocoms are commonplace. It's about our earnest and honest MC falling in love with a kuudere Persocom. Worth watching for: its S++++ tier OP and ED, upbeat classic pop/rock soundtrack, best mascot character Sumomo, good direction, good English dub (if you're into that), and cheery and likable characters. Also of note, this was the following project that the director of Cardcaptor Sakura worked on immediately after finishing that series.
