I decided to watch a few new anime today and the first I came across was AIKa: Zero. This anime must be entirely geared towards men due to the enormous amounts of fan service. In case you didn't know what fan service is it's when an anime uses panty shots, bra shots and almost nudity. In fact this anime does have breast nudity. I guess you could say it dances on the boarder of anime and hentai. There's only one episode out so the plot of the thing is still sketchy, I'll let you know how it turns out after a few episodes. You can watch it here.
Another one I've started watching is Bakemonogatari (which roughly translates as Ghost Story). It's got a unique style and story and at times can have really insane art (and I do mean insane as in crazy, lunatic, touched in the head, mentally unstable) at points, but I do enjoy that; it keeps you on your toes. There is also some fan service scenes in this anime too, but not to as much of an extent as AIKa: Zero it's really not much more than the typical anime geared towards a male audience. The story seems to partially revolve around an ex-vampire named Araragi and a girl named Sanjougahara. I've only watched a few episodes thus far but so far I am greatly enjoying it. You can start watching it here.
