And a second season is highly unlikely thanks to Redline flatlining the studio, Chiyafuru bombing horribly, hemorrhaging staff and having what little resources they have left stuck on working on the new Hunter x Hunter anime.

The first half of Death Note was brilliant
The second half just got gradually worse & worse

Nazo No Kanojo X finally aired the other day, must say i do like the animation style, and the voice actors are pretty good, only gripe with this series is the laziness of the animation team, its not the prettiest of shows, that and the mouths when moving don't match whats being said (Ie its a sort of contsant open/close/open no matter whats said)

I'm not sure what you mean by that.

Ben-to started off pretty good, then got a bit harem-shitty. Dunno if it ended well or not.

The web search I carried out for quick research suggested as much.

Nearly 15. And c'mon, give me a break. there is no way you would expect a boy to be all innocent. I need my fan service and romance and comedy.

Well I've stated it before. I'm a big fan of Anime with fan service and romance. Of course, a good story and action matters too but that's the type I like. Anime like Gurren Lagann and HOTD are what I enjoy. Now I've said this before and others have told me to not only stick to that. I know there are heaps more out there and that I'm missing a lot if I'm only sticking with my type of anime. But others just don't appeal to me as much. I still enjoy them though and watch some like Naruto(and possibly One Piece... one day...) I don't like animes with too much of a dark story or mind game. DeathNote is one example and I was going to include HOTD but I overlooked all the bloodshed and zombies.

And yes... that's just the type of person I am...

I don't know why you seem so adamant about hating that sort of anime when it seems pretty obvious that you have not watched any. And it's not like good series wont have fanservice either.

To be honest, having fanservice is part of an anime's job. I haven't seen many animes which don't have fanservice at all. Of course those ones would have fanservice too. The level of fanservice they have though differs. Of course, as I said, I'm not much of a fan of loads of blood and stuff.
You may be right. Yes, I haven't really watched an episode of Death Note or any other anime which I don't really like but I've seen enough clips of it. Again, I spoiled the end of Deathnote for myself by seeing the end. I don't care too much about that though. Spoilers aren't that much of a bother for me. As I said, I've seen parts of the anime and from what I saw, I didn't find it my type. It IS certainly interesting, but it's jut not my type of anime. The music... and the demonic feeling it gives. It just feels... weird.

Of course, Deathnote HAS grown on me. My friends all like it and I didn't hate ALL the clips I saw. There were some humorous moments of course. I might look at it sometime when I don't have any anime to look at. Though the chances of me running out of good anime are slim. But I'll look at it eventually.
