Glad to see I'm not the only one who would mention Digimon here. I like Tamers in particular, if you can call 10 years ago as being "old". It's one of those things where, despite being exposed to some of its darker aspects earlier in my childhood, I was only able to better understand them after growing older (for instance, I'm much more sensitive to death now). There's also being a bit more familiar with the inspirations (i.e. Lovecraft) behind the main villains, among other things, and knowing the background for all this makes me appreciate the Tamers universe more.

There are quite a few other series mentioned in this thread (too many to list) whose names I recall from my distant past, however I actually don't remember too many details about most of them. I was better at retaining memories of video games than TV shows back then.

That's so weird, I was going through an old DVD case earlier this week and there was that movie staring at me.  I forgot that movie had a bitchin' soundtrack.

watching Appleseed (the new series now airing) I am reminded of exactly how awesome Shirow-inspired anime can be, and I think about it now, watching any of them is as good entertainment as they always will be.

I would add (sorry if anybody said this earlier) SDF Macross, It's the first anime that I ever saw, back when I was a little kid, and it blew my mind.
