Girls und Panzer 1-2: Great series, I love it! It's got group-of-girls comedy stuff, it's got tanks, it's got girls in tanks learning how to control them, and it's got a very strange (and as of yet unexplained) setting, too. Yeah, this series is great, highly recommended. Just remember: Panzerkraft [the tank-battle sport popular in this world] is only for girls. All the boys will want girls who are good at panzerkraft! Not that this series has any actual male characters, so far it doesn't.
Ixion Saga DT 1-2: Amusingly bad generic fantasy series with guy pulled there from this world and some stupid humor. It's so bad it's almost good. Also, it has a crossdressing guy who looks pretty much exactly like a girl.
Chuunibou 1: KyoAni show. It's got their visual style and quality, and it's very moe, but it's average overall I would say. The concept's not too original, with a generic guy and crazy/weird girl, and it makes me think of a cross of Haruhi and various mangas (about how jr. high age kids have that "delusions of grandeur" thing referenced in this series' title). The main girl has eyepatch moe; I of course find damaged moe really quite disturbing, but at least she isn't actually missing an eye -- she just wears the eyepatch because of, well, see the "she's crazy" thing I mentioned earlier. So overall, the show is watchable and moe, but nothing amazing.
