Saki (manga) and Hyakko (anime)
 
#2
OK, this is a really delayed response, but I just wanted to say Hyakko (available in manga as well as anime) is loads of fun. It's a slice-of-life comedy at a somewhat wacky elevator school (almost the entirety of the first episode consists of the four main characters wandering around the campus, trying to find their high-school homeroom). And then the sixth episode of the anime, after a story about three girls paying their friend an unexpected home visit, goes into a fake preview which "promises" that the next episode will be an epic story that seems strongly influenced by Evangelion and the like. Followed by a note which explains that the actual episode may not be exactly like the preview. "Please forgive us."
If Tomo from Azumanga Daioh were as good-looking and cool as she thinks she is, she might be a lot like Torako.
Somewhat amusing bit of trivia: according to Wikipedia, the voice actresses for Tatsuki (Neya Michiko) and Torako (Orikasa Fumiko) both voiced Riza Hawkeye, in Full Metal Alchemist and Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood respectively. It's also kind of funny hearing Hirano Aya as shy, bosomy Ayumi being made to squeal in embarrassment in just the way she as Suzumiya Haruhi often made Mikuru do.
