rec me shoujo / watch three vid recs

[schmevil]

I'm looking for some shoujo manga and anime that's not nauseatingly twee. Flist? Oh, and I have two video recs, and a short rec for you today.

k-os - 4, 3, 2, 1: for good humored, stop motion popping.

Ladytron - Tomorrow: is all soft focus impressionism, and crazy-flying-jellyfish surrealist fantasy.

Phil and Olly (future shorts) - The Black Hole: "A sleep-deprived office worker accidentally discovers a black hole - and then greed gets the better of him..."

Have you seen Revolutionary Girl Utena?

manga AND anime? or is either also ok?

You Higuri: Seimaden (has one male/male relationship in it, but to its defense I needed about 3 volumes to discover that the long haired angelic beauty was a man)

Kaori Yuki: God Child/Count Cain

Missile Happy (forgot author -.-)

My favorite shoujo:

Hiwatari Saki - Please Save My Earth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Please_Save_My_Earth) (also Tower of the Future and Global Garden)

Yazawa Ai - Nana (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nana_(manga)) (also Tenshi Nanka ja Nai and Gokinjo Monogatari)

Tamura Yumi - Basara (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basara_(manga)) (also 7 Seeds)



The "also" ones are for the most part scanlation only. Though I know Tower of the Future is liscened and at least a couple volumes are out, maybe more.

So many more, too... But I'm dead tired and don't feel like figuring out what is released or getting links to descriptions, etc. Those ones are my top faves for sure, though.
