Nothing at the moment, but I figured I'd get this thread started. I'm technically watching Gun X Sword and the Snow Queen, but I got distracted there.
Probably going to give another watch to Tsukihime.
This thread, if you can't guess, is just for us to share what we're watching at the moment. No reviewing and try to keep spoilers to the minimum, but no reason we can't share hints of what we are watching. I know I'd appreciate hints without scanning everything.

I finally watched Ghost in the Shell. ^_^
Next is Appleseed, then I'll prolly watch Akira again.
Appleseed was pretty fun. I enjoyed it. I have it somewhere around here on tape I think.
Dracos
Do you mean old Appleseed or new Appleseed?
Well, I'm in the middle of Azumanga Daioh.
The other day at Otakon, I watched:
Gundam F91
Cromartie High School (Strange, but very good)
Bleach (Very good, but different)
Midori no Hibi (Excellent)
Agatha Christie's Great Detectives Poirot and Marple (Yes, it exists. Fairly good, too, and surprisingly in character)
Yakitate! Japan (Excellent)
and some others I can't remember of right now.
I mean the old one, myself.
Azumanga is awesome.
And bleach is really good? Send me the first 3-5 eps couldya?

Ai Yori Aoshi enishi vol 1 right now. I loved the first series so I'm giving the second a try. I'll probably watch an episode or two of Rozen Maiden and PreCure since I've been doing so for the last few days.
What else.... Well, I have to se what the new shipment is like at Animax. Depending on what comes in I might watch something from there as well.
/me has acquired item 'Appleseed DVD'
/me has acquired item 'Bleach Episode 1'
/me has acquired item 'Bleach Episode 2'
And lo, there shall be some fun watching soon.
(And I mean the new Appleseed, myself.)
Well, I guess it counts as watching something...
Full Moon manga and Rayearth manga.
MOKONA = GOD!
If manga counts too, then yesterday I picked up Hellsing 3 and Naruto 4.
I've started bleach. About ten eps in. Not awesome, but not bad.
Dracos
I've been wanting to see old and new Appleseed, but I don't know where to get the old one.
The animation quality in Azumanga Daioh dissapointed me. The Japanese dubbing was off, too. The plot is excellent, though.
I just sort of found it in an anime store one day myself.
Anyhow up to 15 in bleach.
liking it, even if they keep shrinking orihime's bust =P
Dracos
Damns them all!
My HiME. Get it. 'nough said.
Heh, What's it about? =P Ye untalkative folks!
Watching bleach, up through 30 now. It's getting a bit less awkward, even if there's little real grace in all of the stuff. They're sticking pretty hard to their shonen formula in places and it shows.
Dracos
What's My-HiME about?
*Pulls Dracos from under his rock*
Its about a bunch of women who can summon weapons called elements and mosters called Childs to do battle. Sort of. Hm, the first half of the show and the second half are so different that you'd really need them explained seperately. The first part is the gathering of said women together, filled with light hearted plots and fan service (not annoyingly so, though) while they begin establishing who these people are and what they are. Then around episode 8 the mood shifts. Soon enough it becomes a sort of Red Dawn knock off with a pretty fulfilling climax. Episode 13 happens and suddenly you're in a completely different show.
Personally, it was one of the better shows of the season it came out of, though everyone and his mother will tell you the ending sucks like a five dollar hooker. Still, its worth a watch at least one time through.
Hit 46 on bleach.
It slows down a lot in the death god arc with tremendous amounts of backstory that sort of retcon earlier eps.

Cowboy Bebop for the first time. Shocking, isn't it?
On the manga front, just finished reading PlanetES, which is made of win and god, and Hikaru no Go volume 2. HnG manga just doesn't seem to be as awesome as the anime, which is probably the translation's fault.
Manga.
Love Hina volume 9. I have to say, this is FAR better than I had thought it would be. People said that it really drags after a while, yet I feel no drag. The male lead isn't annoying, and Naru isn't the bitch people seem to make her out to be. The cast is interesting, and the story actually moves somewhere. Guess I'll pick up the rest of the series tomorrow.
Also reading Kerero Gunsou (Sgt Frog for the English translation) and it is, by far, the most entertaining thing I've read all year. Gah! My volume 6 order had better come in tomorrow.
Watching more PreCure, Shuffle!, and Rozen Maiden.
Currently watching Fantastic Children (up to ep10). So far it's been an extremely good series.
Great music (especially the ED) and the animation's old-school style works quite well here (after looking around I found out that the company behind this had also worked on some of Miyazaki's older series). If it stays this good up to the end, Fantastic Children will definitely be, in my opinion, the best recent anime series.
