Gravitation: Lyrics of Love, which is like watching a bad rom-com crash headfirst into a boy band concert, and it's just as gloriously messy as it sounds.
Shuichi Shindo, our endlessly optimistic and incredibly small front man bumbles through life with the grace of a caffeinated squirrel, constantly screaming his feelings and tripping over his own ambition. His love interest, Eiri Yuki, is a walking emotional iceberg, alternating between brooding silence and scathing sarcasm.
They do not mix, they shouldn't mix, and yet... they try to mix.

An anime about a bounty hunter fighting Space pirates sounds a little overdone, right? Well, what if we told you the pirates were also spell casting wizards and commanded Frankenstein like androids?! ARE YOU INTERESTED NOW? Because we sure were.
It also helps that Outlaw Star features great animation and design and even though we watched the dub, we weren't subjected to the Stuart School of Voice Acting for once!

The fact this only got one episode is a travesty, because this anime is a hidden that deserved better! While this anime doesn't exactly feature clubs, or detectives, it does feature girls innocently causing mass mayhem and giving us one of the funniest "and so I started blasting" moments we have ever seen.
This episode is short, but sweet, just like Girl Detective Club.
