Puni Puni Poemy

Puni Puni Poemi is a spin-off of Excel Saga, the classic lampoon of all that is anime. It takes the daughter of two Excel Saga characters and puts her through parodies of shoujo, shounen, ecchi, hentai, and everything in-between. This eccentric show is the "Scary Movie" of anime: younger viewers need not apply.

Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu

Sagara Sousuke is far from the average high school student -- not only is he highly trained in military tactics, he puts his knowledge to use in every single applicable situation (and even those nonapplicable ones.) So, when confronted with high school, he tends to turn average high school experiences into off-the-wall adventures. Love letters become terrorist threats and field trips become commando operations; his survival depends on the watchful eye of his best friend and classmate, Chidori. Together, they may just make it out of high school alive...

Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann

The timid Simon and the brash Kamina led a relatively uneventful life in their underground cave community, until one day Simon found something that would change their lives forever: what seemed like a large face in the wall. But before he could show off his discovery, their cave was assaulted by a strange giant robot; even more strange was the red-haired, gun-toting vixen who swooped in simultaneously to join the battle. The battle isn't going their way, however, until the three think of the best way to kill a giant robot: another giant robot. Soon they find themselves inside the object that Simon found — a robot known as a Ganmen — and blast their way to the harsh surface of the planet. Now, as the three meet new friends and figure out how to use their new method of transportation, they set out to navigate the planet and investigate the source of the giant robots and their "Beastmen" pilots.
