---

Statistics won't tell the story here.

I dropped:

School Rumble
Lovely Complex
Prism Ark
Shion no Ou
Cowboy Bebop
Persona - Trinity Soul

- Prism Ark, Shion no Ou and Persona - Trinity Soul were newer series.

I'll probably try Prism Ark again, I can't clearly remember what went wrong there..
Shion no Ou was actually pretty good, but the story got bland quickly, and a bit repetitive.
Persona just got really freakin slow AND boring.

Keep on record - in my next update I'll add the following "keep up with new" titles that have finished.

Da Capo II S.S.
Bamboo Blade
Hayate no Gotoku (I have no idea why I haven't added this yet)
Kanokon
Minami-ke
Minami-ke Okawari
Shakugan no Shana II

Keep in mind most of these are follow-ups from 2007 series, with the exception of Kanokon.

I don't follow everything that comes out - I said I wanted to watch a lot of the Spring anime but I just couldn't.
Plus I wanted to watch a few older series that I've been meaning to watch.

Assassinator Wrote:errr.... actually, you're the keep-up-with-new-releases kind, rather than the selectively-only-watch-good-stuff-on-recommendation kind.

Nah, that's wrong, keep in mind I picked up mosre series.. i.e. Hayate no Gotoku & School Days earlier simply cause Zero wanted more on the bandwagon.

Assassinator Wrote:So besides for the starting batch of old stuff (that was probably on recommendation), everything else has been new releases. And among the new releases, your average is still biased to the high end. Which kinda counters your argument.

Also wrong, I was a ton of new stuff in 2007 because that was my choice - in the meantime I've decided I couldn't and wouldn't do as I did then, I just don't have the time capacity.
I've been watching older series constantly, simultaneously whilst watching something else. The only exception of this was Fall 2007.
