Recommendations?

Hello, I'm looking to expand my views on the stuff I watch. So I though I'd watch a good anime or two. Any suggestions?
The stuff I'm looking for (Doesn't have to be all of them, one of those options is enough):
Something lighthearted.
Something funny, a comedy, dark humour.
Something with a serious and deep plot.
Something with action.
I am looking for something original, so no Naruto, One Piece, Dragon Ball. And I'm no kid so stuff with suggestive themes or stuff that makes you think also works.
If you have any ideas or suggestions, feel free to post them :D

Thank you for your time.

You are a mod so you should better know to LOOK FIRST INTO THE STICKIES.

I did, though they are all in german, so that doesn't help me any bit. (Can't speak german)
Plus, a conversation is a better because I can question people without spamming the stickies.

I've seen Soul Eater, it's good. I didn't really like Fullmetal Alchemist (the older one I guess), is the remake worth the time?

Thanks, I will check them out and post my opinion, though I'm not sure about some of them.

sure about what?
u can watch the first episode of each one and look which one fits u most
08/28/2011 21:49 slythq#13
Just one major tip, never judge an anime by the first episode or by a summary you find on wikipedia/random Anime Databases. You'll miss a lot
08/28/2011 21:53 Vaidas B#14
Well, the first thing I judge stuff by is the art style, I do like both the kiddy and darker more realistic ones.
