No, not you. Linkman's statement that he avoids anything "mainstream" because it is popular here. What a stupid reason to not watch something.
I watch a lot of stuff that is released here and along with a lot of stuff that is not. I'm not going to stop watching a show or avoid it just because...
I watch a lot of different things. A lot of it depends on mood and such.
Some of my favorites are:
FLCL
Ghost in the Hell: SAC
Ranma 1/2
Cowboy Bebop
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Azumanga Daioh
Lucky Star
Gunslinger Girl
Eva
Excel Saga
Genshiken
