Personally I think Big O is a good choice. I would prefer Turn A Gundam *crosses fingers :)* but Big O has some mainstream appeal and was quite high profile at the time. I remember it having a huge amount of buzz when it was airing in the US. It also has a really silly name, which stands out.


Interesting to hear that we oldies have some clout with sales. I'm always buying new stuff as well (Durarara can't come soon enough!) but filling up on older series which were passed over never hurts. I think the anime companies do a pretty good job of balancing it really; nobody can complain we are exactly overwhelmed with classics, but the times between airing and foreign DVD releases are gradually shortening significantly. My backlog is a jumble of shows from all different seasons and it's fun that way.
