When 17-year-old Makoto Konno gains the ability to, quite literally, "leap" backwards through time, she immediately sets about improving her grades and preventing personal mishaps. However, she soon realizes that changing the past isn't as simple as it seems, and eventually, will have to rely on her new powers to shape the future of her and her friends.

Having watched the trailers on the net for Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo (English title: The Girl Who Leapt Through Time), I've been looking forward to it for a while. With character designs by the same guy who did those for Neon Genesis Evangelion, and animation by Madhouse, it is a great-looking movie. Lively and interesting backgrounds, lush colors and detailed animation, it's a joy to look at. Particular mention must be made of the time-leaping effect, which gives you a sense of breathlessness. The voice acting is extremely enjoyable, with the voice actors really managing to show their characters personalities, while endearing them to the viewer. The music is great, with a wonderfully wistful theme song "Garnet", provided by Hanako Oku. The direction is interesting, with some really nice shots effectively conveying the more important events and scenes. Overall, I really enjoyed Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo. Definitely recommended to watch.

I can answer that, it's "Lucky Star"
It's an excellent casual anime about the comedy in the world. The girls discuss school and daily life, all while coming to the realizations of each other. Not to mention, one of the girls is an "Otaku" that plays male dateing sims, loves to buy manga, works at a cosplay cafe, and plays mmo's.
Just remember to bare throught the first episode, as each episode relies on previous episodes for comical references, the first has none. (The first is what really killed it for many)
Note: The dancing girls is the opening. What they are saying is, "Around 3cm, looks peachy doesn't it? Hey, rapping for a uniform, Turn-off ain't it . . ." you see where I'm going with this. The opening is a fanservice for Otaku's.

Ooh, ooh, she's the main character as well. :D
Apparently she's cute and very intelligent (Wikipedia ftw?). Can kill on all her school work and then-some, but would rather slack off and do all the stuff that ncyphe just posted.
I'd love to watch it, but Girls BRAVO! caught my interest. This shit is hilarious. I wonder if this guy is maybe brain damaged, retarded, or half-dead after all the shit his head just hit.

-- Soo . . . it's still funny.
On another note:
This is sad, I keep looking at your sig and hearing the song in my head. I think I'm going crazy.

Just finished watching it. It was sweet. :3 The music was really moving in this movie, and the animation was top notch. Great storyline too, it was awesome.
Feeling warm and fuzzy~
