Really enjoying it so far, there's more comedy than I was expecting, such good fun. Might actually help me out of the anime slump I've been in recently XD
Ouch. I look forward to your more detailed evaluation. I always wondered if the show had been super popular during the 90s because it was just different or because it was actually any good.
You finished Serial Experiments Lain! Does that mean the review is now on its way? :D Man, I've been waiting for that for ages - never really come across a review that explained it well to me.
Loving the magical girl genre is a lot like beer. Either you hate it, or you love it, and can't get enough of it lol. Sometimes it takes the right show, the right situation to pull you into it though.

Interesting new bio.
1) Read this column: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/the-mike-toole-show/
2) Listen to this podcast: http://www.awopodcast.com/
And that's all you need to remember that anime is an art with historical and cultural contexts and lots of brilliant little-known treasures.

\r\nYou can pull up a comprehensive list of the genre here: https://www.anime-planet.com/tags/magical-girl/anime
\r\nBut of that list, from shows I am experienced with, I would highly suggest the following (if any of them appeal to you at any level):
\r\nSailor Moon - No brainer for me. It's my #1 anime of all time.
\r\nCard Captor Sakura - Fun clamp show, instant classic
\r\nMagic Knight Rayearth - Another clamp show--it has some of the coolest designs I think I've ever seen before. Examples: http://cephiro.tripod.com/MKRE/mkr2-09.jpg http://cephiro.tripod.com/MKRE/mkr2-11.jpg http://cephiro.tripod.com/MKRE/mkr2-07.jpg (Yes, it has magic AND mechs!)
\r\n
\r\nAlso, I'll make special mention of Power Puff Girls Z. IF you like PPG, you'll probably like PPGZ. It's a fun show.
\r\nMahou Shoujou isn't for everyone, but for those that it is, it's better than air. For those that it isn't, there's always yaoi.
