Underrated Anime Listings.
Re: Underrated Anime Listings.
I think Loveless is unerrated. The animation, storyline, and characters are all great. The only thing wrong with it was the ending.

Re: Underrated Anime Listings.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen any of the "Bubblegums", on fan sub VHS, at that, but I really liked them. There are three Bubblegum’s and a couple spinoffs, the prequel A.D. Police, and A.D. Police: To Protect and Serve, neither of which reaches the same level as Bubblegum. Anime on DVD has reviews of A.D. Police. Check out the rest right here.

Re: Underrated Anime Listings.
I havent seen bubble crisis in years now, Thanks I appreciate the links.
Re: Underrated Anime Listings.
Madou-King Granzort & Outlanders
Both are from the 80s, have interesting storylines, lots of humor, and great characters.
MKG is a little B-rated, though.
And Outlanders is only a movie (but it's adapted from a manga series).
I never hear of other fans of either of these, and it's too bad...

Re: Underrated Anime Listings.
Fansubs. if you can use bittorrent, animesuki is the ticket. If not, crunchyroll.com has almost all of the anime I mentioned above with youtube like quality.
Since you liked RahXephon, I might suggest watching Reideen or Yuusha Raideen. Raideen is the series that gave RahXephon most of its inspiration, but as of now, only 3 episodes have been released (it is also quite dated, being released in the mid 70s). Reideen would be more appropriate, being a modern (READ: The 3rd) remake of the original Raideen.
Other stuff to look out (based on your taste on anime as I know it) for include: Gurren-Lagann, Gunbuster and Skull Man. Stuff that I loved but am not so sure you'd enjoy include GaoGaiGar/GaoGaiGar Final, Turn A Gundam and Ideon (If you can't sit through the entire series, just watching the 2 movies will suffice)
