Here's an idea

Take a picture or list the anime which you own, but have not yet completed OR have yet to watch.
I tend to find that as soon as I finish a show, One or two others take its place.

Starting with this:
2.jpg

I have seen Steins;Gate and K-On!! Subbed.

Which shows should I watch first?
 
I'd say Howl's Moving Castle since it's once of my favorites :D I got the Blu-ray version a little while a go, still not got around to watching it either (though I've seen the film before on dvd)

If you don't fancy that, then Samurai Champloo and you can tell me if it's any good ;p Been wondering whether to get that myself for a while, I really like the music, and I think it's also directed by the same person who did Cowboy Bebop?
 
I still have to watch Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Second Season volumes 2 and 3. Well, I watched them when they aired in Japan, but haven't watched the releases I bought. I also have yet to finish watching Trigun.
 
Sometimes I think I spent more time looking/ordering than I do watching as this is roughly my backlog at the minute (would take a picture but there in boxes all over the place) -

This is why you will not see any pictures of my collection anywhere either.
 
Not a huge backlog as I don't tend to buy loads at a time:

Blu-Rays:

Basilisk
Katangatari Sets 1 + 2
Paprika
Tekkonkinkreet

DVD's

Blue Exorcist Pasrts 1 + 2
Chaos; Head
Darker Than Black Series 2 + OVAs
Memories
Natsumes Book of Friends Season 1 + 2
Paranoia Agent Complete Collection
Tsubasa Collected Memories
Tsukihime Complete Collection

I have a few things pre-ordered for November through to January, but I try to keep it all at manageable levels so that I don't just buy for the sake of it.

Whisper of the Heart. My favourite Ghibli movie. If you love Whisper of the Heart, you most assuredly have excellent taste.

Samurai Champloo would be in my top 5 anime TV shows. Watch that afterwards. If you love Samurai Champloo...

Backloggery:

Darker Than Black S2 (gonna have to rewatch S1 first)
Eden of the East (dunno why I've not watched this yet)
Kodocha set 2 (again, may have to rewatch from the beginning and can't be arsed)
Some of the Haruhi-chan shorts (Zzzz, mostly not funny)

That's it, I think, apart from some BDs of shows I watched on DVD. My backlog is smaller than it's been in forever.
 
I buy loads of anime dvds, but my backlog is always small somehow. It's quicker to type out my backlog than take a picture so:
Barefoot Gen 2
Blue Exorcist
Clannad (waiting for the last dvd in december before starting)
Madoka Magica (is in the post somewhere, will be on my shelf in a few days)
Mobile Suit Gundam Seed
Welcome to the NHK (been sat next to my dvd player for weeks, still not got around to it)

Oh, and Whisper of the Heart is the my favourite Ghibli as well.
 
My DVD backlog is:
Baccano
Battle Royale 2 (movie)
Bamboo Blade
Buso Renkin
Chobits (have seen through fansubs in the past)
D Gray Man
Durarara!
FMA Brotherhood (seen the first half on fansubs)
Funuke (live action)
Girl Who Leapt Through Time
Ghost Hunt
Ghost in the Shell
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (seen on fansubs years ago)
Hetalia Seasons 1 and 2 (seen on fansubs)
Highschool of the Dead (watched on fansubs)
House of 5 Leaves

I'll be honest, I haven't watched it for ages, but I only had like, 3 or 4 episodes left.
I vaguely remember the baseball episode.



I forgot about all my NISA stuff on my top shelf.
Still need to watch the rest of Arakawa under the Bridge x Bridge and Katanagatari Vol 1
 
Wow so many lists, will sum it up In a few sentences, if anyone has Paranoia Agent or any of the Satoshi Kon films in there backlog...go watch! Also If anyone has Bunny Drop to watch then watch that too!

My Backlog Consists of:
- Broken Blade (Movies 2-6, probably rewatch 1, Only Backlogged Blu-Ray...at least for next day or so)
- Cowboy Bebop
- Ergo Proxy
- Eureka Seven (Collection 2/2, not bothering going back and watching first set, only did watch it few months ago)
- Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (then I can watch Continuity 2 on Netflix)
- House of Five Leaves (Seen 1-8 via rental, definitley will rewatch from beginning though)
- Lupin the Third: The Secret of Mamo
- Ranma ½: Big Trouble in Nekonron, China
- Ranma ½: Nihao My Concubine
- Samurai Champloo
- Tenjho Tenge (Just finished watching the TV Series, Need to Watch the couple of OVA episodes)

So...Yeah, Will watch TenTeng OVA tomorrow, and then will probably be watching Madoka Magica next when that arrives, So after that I guess my next question has already been answered with a few shouts for Champloo I guess?
 
I'm only now working my way mainly through imports I bought at the end of last year/beginning of this, I tend to watch most of my UK buys as soon as, though I've put a few of the non-essentials on the backburner whilst I plow through this stuff:

Kaleido Star (currently watching)
Koi Kaze
True Tears
Special A
Fruits Basket
Honey & Clover
Arakawa Season 1 and 2 (watched them when they aired so never been in a rush)
Maria Holic 1 and 2 (same)
Toradora (same)

(UK releases)
Evangelion 1.11 and 2.22
Squid Girl
FMA: Brotherhood (only got round to seeing the original this year so not in a rush)
Blue Exorcist
Princess Jellyfish (watched when aired)
Black Butler 2
Jin-roh
Shiki
World God Only Knows Season 1 (watched when aired)
Chaos;Head

And Puella Magi Madoka Magica should arrive today or tomorrow, but I'm probably going to shoot that to the top of my watch list because I feel I'm missing out on something since I didn't watch it when it aired. I get massively delayed when I try to fit in rewatches of shows; last year I rewatched all of DBZ when I finally got the original Dragon Ball and GT, doing it all in order, and this year I did a big One Piece rewatch to celebrate the releases finally getting back on track. There's lots of other smaller shows I want to rewatch and I really want to rewatch all of Pokemon which will take a huge amount of time, hence why I've kept putting it off. But hopefully I'll be finished watching all my imports before the end of the year and get up to date with all my new UK releases by March/April next year. The end of the year is approaching though, and there's no telling what I'm going to be buying this time to stockpile for watching next year.
