Finished School Rumble. I enjoyed the entire 52 + 2 episode run, even though as a series it never went anywhere at all and the characters barely developed.
What's wrong with me? :-)
You enjoy entertainment. Character development is also not needed in a comedy. There's also another 2-episode OVA along side the two 26-episode seasons and 2-episode OVA you've seen. You might want to look that one up as well.
At least the manga has a resolution...
The manga was still running when the 2 TV series were made. The second OVA I mentioned was made after the manga finished. It might cover the resolution.
OK so I'm probably going to watch "Sword Art Online" given that it's themed around some stuff that is very much in my wheelhouse.
Guilty pleasure for me, even though the first episode was horrendous in parts.
List me off some anime I should recommend to young persons that think they are "really into anime" but havn't really seen anything.
I gave them Evangelion and Cowboy Bebop as required viewing.
I think suggesting Cowboy Bebop isn't a great suggestion for your target group. Eva might be a decent suggestion, but I feel like there's better suggestions to make with the preface of "If you're really into anime then this". Then you can see if they are actually really into anime (unless you already know), or not and go from there. How old are these kids?

Gurren Lagan and Eureka Seven are a little out of place in that list. I don't recognize Madoka.
Big O is probably high on my list of "things you should see to be well rounded in anime".
Did you not read the premise? These young people think they're really into anime. Though you might have a small point in the mass appeal of Gurren Lagann (spell it right boy!)

Cowboy Bebop scores big points with me by virtue of being hand animated, and very skillfully. That puts it on my "must see in order to be indoctrinated" list.
I'm looking to round her out, not reinforce her bullshit. ;-)
Yes, but you also need something that will catch her attention. Utena initially looks similar but changes very quickly as a show and, most importantly, is good.
EDIT: Oh jesus how did I forget Escaflowne I'm an idiot.

The most this world can handle is this:
Lets not forget the fallen heroes of yore, like this one, who saved us from surely demise from the dino-sympathizers
Dude, I was forgetting Giant Robo. For shame!

As for Utena, it's only in the movie.
