Inukami!

It’s constantly lewd, silly, and is simultaneously an example of a harem anime and making fun of perverts. The series has moments that will make you cry from laughing so hard, and times when you get a little emotional, and then you’ll go “fuck yeah” as something cool happens. It sort of has the premise of ‘taming’ spirits and using them to battle bad spirits, but most of the time they end up fighting the over-aggressive nerd who gets a nosebleed around a girl.

If you liked the studio ghibli ones, try Wolf’s Rain. It’s a cool story. The creator then took his ideas that he didn’t get to play with (subterfuge and deeply flawed characters) and created Darker than Black, a really awesome take on regular people getting superpowers.

I mean, it IS basically a self-insert masturbatory ‘little guy is super badass’ anime… but it is a FUN and visually neat one at the same time. I would tell people to watch it if they like the premise. Just don’t read the book. It somehow was more mary sue-ish.
