Ah, i remember watching my first English subbed anime about a year ago. It was called Kanokon and that is the anime that made me addicted to subbed anime. It's mainly a love story, but it does have comedy and some action (most of the action is towards the end of the series). It's still my favorite anime and the one i don't mind watching over and over again. However, i recommend this anime to viewers aged 16+ because there is quite a bit of ecchi and some nudity (however i think the nudity for the most part is censored, and there is no actual (s) scenes).
Edit: Actually i forgot to mention something. There is 1 scene towards the end of Kanokon OVA 2 that is very close to being considered a (s) scene.

^Oh god...Kanokon was horrible... Kouta looks like he's 8 years old and he has an extremely hot girl wanting to do him 24/7 yet he doesn't want to?!?! This doesn't make any sense, and why does Chizuru even like him in the first place. I think the manga will come to an end once they finally do it.

The summer season has started and I just watched one of the first shows to air, "Kamisama no memechou - It's the only NEET thing to do". The first episode was 50 minutes long, but it was worth it.
A short synopsis:
Narumi Fujishima is a plain high school boy, who has been isolated in the class. His classmate, Ayaka Shinozaki, invites Narumi to the gardening club and introduces a hikikomori detective named Alice to him.
I found the story interesting. It is a mystery anime with otaku characters. The animation and art style look nice. I like the characters, except for the Victorique-like Alice (at least Narumi doesn't keep calling her name :P ). So fans of Gosick should watch this episode. :)

EDIT: Anyone else watching Nichijou? Episode 14 was great, I can't help but be amazed everytime by the incredible animation of this show. The quarrel between Mio and Yuuko was very well done. I also love the humor in this show. Oh how I felt for Nano in this episode to walk around with a large wind-up key on her back. And the professor refusing to remove it because it looks cute. :P

EDIT2: Clan Citadels concept art reminds me of Laputa. ;) Influenced by the well-known anime movie? We shall see.

* What anime are you all going to follow this summer season?
I will watch:
- Natsume Yuujinchou San
- Usagi Drop
And eventually some second seasons of anime of which I haven't seen S1 yet.
* I' m getting so trolled by Level E O_o But I like it! :D
* Kanokon is everything except good, perhaps the only anime I did not complete. (If you don't count Ayakashi Japanese Classic Horror since I was only interested in BakeNeko).

When I first saw the concept art for the clan citadels, I immediately thought of that floating kingdom in the sky thing from Shakugan no Shana (flashbacks from season 2 I think). Hopefully they'll tell us where they got the idea for it from. :P

lol, that's one of the comedic parts of it. ecchi = (the word i cant use in runescape apparently that starts with a P) humor in the anime world. btw, Kouta is definately not 8 years old in that anime, he's attending high school. I havent actually read the manga, just watched the show. Anyways, it sounds as though you don't want very many animes with ecchi, but that's alright.
