Since you like Pretear and Kaleido Star (GO YOU), I'm going to lamely copy this comment I made to digitalstarry that also works for your interests. :D
Princess Tutu is a girl anime that starts off for the first five episodes as pretty bland, but from there on it picks up quickly into a very complex and dark series. The characters are fantastic. It's by far one of the best, if not the very best, animes I've ever seen. This an award-winning AMV that has single-handedly convinced many people into watching it for the first time. IDK if it might be too shoujo-y for you, though.
Also you'd probably like Outlaw Star too (oh those Toonami classics). <3
You've just totally reminded me that I need to ask my friend if I can borrow her Princess Tutu DVD's I've been dying to see this show for ages :D Ahahah I'm so funny with the Shoujo I watch some of it is bluddy damn awful but there are a few I do really like and what I saw of Princess Tutu I thought was awesome!
AND ASDFGHJ- OUTLAW STAR AIEEEE. I MISS THAT SHOW D: (FUCK YOU BRITISH TOONAMI FOR BEING SO SHIT. YOU USED TO BE AWESOME THEN YOU WENT SHIT. WHAT HAPPENED TO BEING ABLE TO WATCH COWBOY BEBOP EVERY DAMN NIGHT HUH?)
ACTUALLY I THINK IT WENT DED. D: Wait, at least I think it did. US Toonami is definitely ded, but I thought UK Toonami was ded too, because CN is complete shit now.
WHERE HAVE ALL THE GOOD AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMS GONE? ;A;
THAT'S BECAUSE CARTOON NETWORK IS WTF NOW AND OBSESSED WITH BEING POLITICALLY CORRECT. <-- this always gets to me. I want to take several kid's shows creators and beat them over the head with old Disney 'toons until they come up with something actually decent.
But oh man TT. I haven't seen that in forever (that and Batman Beyond). FFFFF Slade/Terra. The more I watch that show, the more I started to see that pairing. I'm more of a Slade/Robin fan, both platonically and romantically. I enjoy the classic pairings too, though I like to pretend the TT movie didn't happen because they screwed up the Robin/Starfire relationship build-up.
