Which anime to choose? (Help is greatly appreciated) ;)

Hi all.

I'm trying to choose the next new series I want to start collecting and I've gotten it down to four:

Haibane Renmei
Wolf's Rain
Pretear
Kaleido Star

They all look so good and I can only pick one new one for the moment. Which one do you think I should start next? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Pretear was pretty good. I just finished watching it about two weeks ago. There is a lot of angst in that show, though. Wolf's Rain is good as well. I've not seen the entire series yet, though.

Pretear though pretty as it was, wasn't very good. I'd go for Haibane Renmei, its a beautifully animated and depressing story that leaves you confused.

I've never heard of any of them. Well, I've heard of Wolf's Rain, but never seen nor read it. I guess...Preatear? I have money, I should buy a manga. :oops:

I love Wolf's Rain. The anime is beautifully drawn, the music is nicely appropriate, and it has wolves in it

Sometimes it leaves me sad, but never in a bad way.

Definitely Wolf's Rain. Because really, it's just plain awesome. I don't know how else to describe it.

I think my friend (not on PPT) likes Wolf's Rain..so..maybe that. Only maybe though.

woohoo Wolf's Rain! I've already started my collection. ~huggles Kiba plushie~ I love the music and the style it's drawn in.

I finally saw the first disc of KaleidoStar. It was not at all what I expected. It was actually a nice surprise. It's still a bit cheesy, but it's cute and funny. I'm enjoying it so far.

I adore both Wolf's Rain and Haibane Renmei.

If I had to choose it would be a toss up between the two. Haibane Renmei is a somewhat depressing story with beautiful art and lots of symbolism. Wolf's Rain is sort of a story of hope (in my eyes) with great art work and lots of action. I love them both to pieces.

Haibane Renmei and Wolf's Rain are very good series, but it leaves me confused. I watched the first episode of Kaleido Star and I gotta say it was good! But VERY cheesy.

Wolf's rain for sure, trust me, unfortunetly I ruined the ending for myself but it is a grat anime with a great storyline, and its the first thing that has ever...EVER!!!!! made me come close to crying....watch it, or you'll miss out...but if you havent watch it yet, don't watch this saterday's ep on cartoon network cuz their showing the last ep...start with the dvds

This Saturday is the last episode of Wolf's Rain already? It doesn't even seem like it's been that long. I hate to see a good series end. Last Saturday's was tough. I can't wait to see what happens.

(No spoilers until after Saturday, please.)

Haibane Renmei is like my alltime favorite anime ever.

Get it for the soundtrack and art if nothing else.

The only anime I've heard of on there is Wolf's Rain. I've only seen two episodes of it, but they were still really reeeaaally good. Quite depressing, but still good. That and who can go wrong with wolves?
