Some of these shows I've actually owned for three years and still haven't watched! It's positively ridiculous that I haven't finished Monster yet. I stopped in the middle because of some RL stuff and never picked it back up until now...

I've heard nothing but good things about Last Exile, actually.

I got halfway through Haibane Renmei, and everyone loves it...it's just SO SLOW! So slow! I felt like I was pulling my hair out one strand at a time waiting for anyone to grow or change or act. But I'll probably finish because it's only 13 eps.

I've heard that halfway through, it sort of turns into an annoying love triangle after 12 episodes of utter excellence. I've also heard from other sources that it recovers, though. I watched the first half before I left anime for a little while, and I haven't really gotten back to it.

Well, a major catalyst occurs on disc three of Haibane Renmei, which is episodes 7-9.

There's no real love triangle there. There's about 2 episodes of oddness where a large chunk of the oddness is how things look happening so closely together, but they aren't what they look like on rewatch.

There is a triangle in the second half, of sorts (it's more that one person has apparently unrequited feelings for another, while someone else seems to have feelings for that person-the one w/ the unrequited feelings-that do have a chance of eventually being returned) but that one is extremely well done, IMO. And I despise most triangles.
