I don't watch much anime, but there are two I think are unbelievably good: the better known of them is the Sword Art Online anime, which spoke right to my soul the whole way through, had awesome action, and had cool characters.

The other is the Air Gear anime; if you haven't heard of it, look it up. I found out about it because the music is composed by Hideki Naganuma (under the moniker Skankfunk), my favorite game composer. The show is basically about rival skating gangs in Japan who compete for territory, and can gain territory by challenging each other to competitions of skill.

The cool thing about it, though, is that the whole thing has a mystical overtone, with themes like trying to transcend one's limitations and become one with the sky. Trying to explain the whole thing would be pretty tough, but it's awesome. It only had about 25 half-hour episodes, so you can watch through it in less than a month pretty easily. DEFINITELY worth watching in my opinion.
