Right, couple more for ya's

First up, Rideback

To quote ANN: In a future world where an organization called the GGP has taken control of the world, Rin Ogata was a promising up-and-coming ballet dancer, but suffered a serious injury and decided to quit. Years later in college she comes across a club building and soon finds herself intrigued by a transforming motorcycle like vehicle called a Rideback. She soon finds that her unique ballet skills with balance and finesse make her a born natural on a Rideback.

Ooh, it's a mecha motorbike show with a ballerina in it. Oohkey...
Surprisingly, it's very good. Reminds me a bit of Flag vaguely, except not boring
I'm only up to ep 3 so far, so it's still Rin getting used to the Rideback, but there's a hint of military activity in the background, which will hopefully mean this'll start adding up to some rather interesting and probably quite thought provoking action.
Animation quality is top notch, with nice CG on the bikes. OP track is by Mell (Black Lagoon op fame), and the ED track is an absolutely amazing track that contrasts so well with the OP. Get the feeling that contrast is a major feature of the show somehow.



next up Maria Holic

ANN again: The story centers on a sophomore named Kanako who enrolls in all-girls school because she has a phobia of men and wants to find her destined yuri partner. She meets a captivating freshman named Mariya who fits her criteria — except her seemingly ideal mate happens to be a cross-dressing sadistic boy.

Yes, it's a Trap! A damn cute trap at that too

Aah, the latest outing from Shaft and Shinbo (ala Moon Phase, Pani Poni Dash, Negima!?, Zetsubou Sensei, etc) . I'm in heaven
OK, you have to like Shaft's artistic styles to really like their stuff, but it's guaranteed animation eye candy and almost always a laugh a minute. And terminally insane. OP track No ED on the tube unfortunately, which is a shame (tis a Media Factory anime), cause it's great!
