I always thought you READ manga and WATCHED anime..
Anyways, I'm watching Fate Stay night now and I dont plan on watching Tora. Not that I need alot of action but a plain 100% love story gets boring quickly, a sub plot involving some form of fighting is quite important.
Kaze No stgima is another good example.
I plan on watching Melcholy and the Butler one also.
Edit::: I also wouldn't mind something like what Zero started like, of course there's limited action but for some reason I still enjoyed it.
