Thanks!
Gundam 00 imo.
No. 00 sucks. Watch Gundam Wing or even Seed, Gundam AGE is getting good now that the little kiddies have grown up. If you're looking for that kind of series watch Kaze no Stigma, magic, supernatural and lots of action. Also Perhaps Shakugan No Shana (not very much school drama after first season, and even then the school is only involved in the first 5 episodes of the 3 season show).
@ Reddit's Badass Anime Characters:
To be honest I feel like they really got it all wrong. The most badass character of all time has to be Roy Mustang from the FMA series, or more specifically in Brotherhood. Not only does he outshine Edward Elric, the main character from this show but he literally is a boss. When Ed and Al couldn't even stop one bad guy, Roy waltzes in after nearly dying to this same bad guy and has to sealing his wounds with his flame, then proceeds to burn the shit out of said bad guy. He does this multiple times. It's like he doesn't even try the entire series until he avenges his friend.
Just my thoughts.
From the sound of it, you think Wing > Seed. That is so wrong it's not even funny.
But wing was better than seed, Seed was a bunch of unneeded teen melodrama. Seed stargazer however is a different story

Your list is kinda varied, but there seems to be a lot of romance comedy, slice of life and seinen sort of stuff on there. So I guess I'd say the following.
Hayate no Gotoku Nichijou Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai Mirai Nikki Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann Welcome to the N.H.K. Saki Onii-chan no Koto Nanka Zenzen Suki Janain Dakara ne!! Kanokon Kampfer Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Excel Saga
Seen Kawaii, Nichijou, Gurren Lagann, NHK, Kampfer, Higarshi on that list. The others I have considered watching but never got to.

Well since you liked ZnT Yosuga no Sora was good. Lack of Nanoha on your list is a shame As far as mechas go Zeorymer was a awesome mech. It's pretty short Baldr Force is also mecha but it's a 4 ep OVA Lack of Gear Dendoh and Gaiking saddens me
There's also Sword X Gun
and to top of the Mecha series Super Robot War is awesome. but is more catered towards SRW Gamers.
Macross Frontier is one of my favorites along with the Nanoha series
dude, why no G Gundam?
and Zoids Genesis, you'll love that.
Never watching SWR ever. Don't try to convince me. I have my reasons. Seen G Gundam, watched a bit of Zoids and Macross (even own a game or two) Sword X Gun was on my list but I haven't got around to it as I'm trying to watch some other genres too.
Also @ the big ass poster, when you've literally seen almost everything out there or tried it at least, you watch some bad anime. I have seen EVERY GUNDAM in case you were doing the Jackie Chan "Why?!" face.
Also I'm not into Lucky Star for some reason, just couldn't bring myself to watch past the first episode. Also I'm a die-hard fan of both Wing and Seed, however Wing has a special place in my hard, as when I was young I'd stay up until 1:30 on a friday night just to watch it, only to go to school and build those gundams with the square blocks you can connect to each other. It might not be the best choice, but no song gets the nostalgia going like the OP to Gundam Wing.
Still looking for suggestions, the few I haven't seen I will give a try in the mean time.

You are absoluetely insane. If you are being generous, Wing is AVERAGE at best. And thats being generous. SEED on the other hand single handly saved the entire franchise. Unneeded teen melodrama? Did you even watch the fucking show?

If you have seen every gundam, then why weren't Zeta Gundam and Turn A Gundam on your list????
Also, if someone ever recommends you to watch Zeorymer, you can assume them to either be trolling, or mentally retarded. Don't watch that show, its bad. Really bad. There is like, absolutely no redeemable quality about that show. And this is coming from the thread's biggest mecha-fan. I can't imagine anyone legitimately enjoying that pos OVA. Only watch SRW:OGIN if you are a fan of the games.
How bout watch some Getter Robo? New Getter Robo is a real solid watch. Gunbuster as well, its a timeless classic that everyone should watch at some point or another.

Well, since your list is pretty damn varied, I might as well suggest my 2 favorite anime series of all time: Trigun and Saber Marionette J (and J to X). Both are essentially alternate world past-set-in-the-future action animes with both decent comedy and a few well thought out mature themes.

You see, I said before that if I had watched one show and it had a sequel or whatever I had probably seen it too. The only reason it's not on my MAL is because I find adding things a pain. I'm currently looking for something other than mech or magic at the moment, just watched all of Seed+FMA:B and a couple newer shows (Mirai Nikki, AGE, Shana etc).
So I watched the first episode of Bakemongatari and its definately not what i was expecting, and i didnt even understand half the stuff going on, should i drop it or does it turn out to be a good show?
and on a side note, the new episodes of zero no tsukaima f are really good

If ur more weirded out than interested by the first episode. Then this show prolly isnt for you. Its hit or miss for some people.

I wouldn't watch the second season if I were you but I'd recommend you to grind a few more eps. It gets much better, need to let the uniqueness set it.

I have to agree with Sentenal. Wings was good for back then but up to today standard, Seed definitely better. The only problem I have with Seed is that the action could of been better....it felt a bit lacking but overall it is better. Although season 2 just made you wana vomit.

I was going to say it did, but then I realized that it's a shame to even consider Destiny a sequel to SEED.
Destiny is SEED, just reversed and with more angst. Also I feel like Sunrise only released Destiny because they wanted to capitalize on SEEDs success, only to violently butcher the series.
Speaking of butchering, I trolled my friends with School Days, now they wont even talk to me about anime.
