Is the "where do you even start" for Haruhi "where do you even start" with the cons of the series, or wondering about the order to watch in?

Order! It's so confusing D:

The linear order's okay I think; that's how I watched it and it's nice for coherency. I did later watch it in original broadcast order and I found that more satisfying having seen it in order first. So with season two in there (if you can bear to watch the same episode re-animated eight times with slight differences) it's this.

Hmm... I watch Digimon without fastforwarding through all the evolution sequences, I can probably deal |3 Thanks for the link!

I wouldn't say that Utena is heavy as much as the themes rely on obscure symbolism. Which in turn makes the plot somewhat of a mindfuck. It's probably one of those you've got to watch twice to appreciate.

As for Princess Tutu: The first episode is really not a good indication of where the story ends up, and I'd sooner compare it to Utena than to Tamers - without the mindfuck, though.

I got a boxset with Evangelion five years ago. Still haven't watched past episode four.
