I need to see more Trinity Blood, but the first two episodes felt flat to me, but with some potential.
Haven't seen Zipang, it sounds like a response to the old 80's movie The Final Countdown, in which the USS Nimitz is sent back to before the attack on Pearl Harbor--a film that didn't go over too well in Japan for some strange reason.
I tried some Emma but it didn't quite click for me. Close, but not quite. Need to see more Loveless, I've really enjoyed it so far. Bleach never really sounded up my alley so I haven't seen any. I'd agree on Honey and Clover except that it's based on a jousei manga, so I don't think that was the *original* intention regarding Hagu. No idea if that's true for the anime or not, though. I know the pics I've seen of the manga covers tend to feature Hagu and the drawing style on her seems a lot more shoujo/jousei style than in the anime, giving her a more doll-like appearance.
