#: Only new titles or titles I dropped and read/watch again will be listed. Will do a proper rating later (or never). One step forward into the mayhem of organisation. I open my arms and heart to any recommendations!
##: Here and there original titles when not too lazy to look them up. Oh and I usually watch everything in its original dub (is that the proper word, I'm too stupid to think), save for the occassional German dub on TV.
