Quite possibly the greatest Anime of all time.

Even though it's been on the air for a while, it still ranks as my favorite Anime of all time. With that being said, here is my biased review.
Animation/Artwork: 10
Character designs were done by the immortal Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, the same guy who did character designs for Neon Genesis Evangelion and .hack//SIGN. This was also the first digital animation from Gainax, and graphically it's so gorgeously fluid and colorful it's orgasmic.
Plot: 10
While I refuse to give spoilers, let's just say it seems kinda random. However, there is some depth to it... just might take some time to pinpoint. The humor is ace, it will definately give you a laugh or two with some of the crued sexual innuendos. And the characters seem to have pretty down to earth personalities, save for Haruko.
Sound: 10
As far as dubs are concerned, it's pretty so-so. The music on the other hand, performed by Jrock band The Pillows, is absolutely masterful. It's just so upbeat and mellow it will unconsciously make you dance like a fairy.
Violence: 4
Not very violent at all, so sqeamish folks have little to worry about.
Overall: 9.5
In conclusion, this has been my favorite Anime since the day I saw it for the first time a couple years ago, and I doubt my opinion is going to change anytime soon.
