	As I've always said, the best anime is the one *you* like the best. Its 
also worth pointing out that Japanese anime publications produce "fan 
favourite" lists every so often, and whilst the same series tend to come 
round again and again, positions change and old favourites occasionally 
drop out to be replaced by new favourites.

	Incidentally, I've never said that magical girl series should be 
avoided. Its more a clash of philosophies thing than a viewing habits 
thing. ^_^
