hmm great thread idea im dling 4 seasons of shows due to recomendations in this thread =P. Now, on to my small contribution.

Mahoromatic: Awsome anime. It has an interesting and moving plot that always made me want to watch more. Its about a military robot in the form of a women who leaves service to enjoy her last days as shes going to run out of juice soon. She decides to take up residence with a young boy and some pretty funny scenes ensue. For genre its a romantic comedy with some action thrown in as well. It has interesting, if not original, characters and in my opinion as i stated before a great anime. The only real thing i disliked about it was that at the very end of each episode they had a countdown to when she shut down which was a bit of a downer to me.
