Calling upon the collective for anime recommendations

There's a thread over on the SJGames forums where a poster with eclectic
tastes is asking for anime recommendations... After reading the entire thread (so you can get an idea of the requester's tastes), what did we miss
recommending to him?

Full Metal Panic. Action-Comedy with a bit of a triangle (although the guy is more clueless than usual). A few first season episodes are almost all action.
The 2nd season (TSR) is darker than the first. Fumoffu (OAV) is straight comedy.

btw - I suspect he'd probably do ok with Patlabor (assuming he can find it), even though he didn't like GitS (any idea if was it the movies or the TV
series that done him in?). Patlabor TV and OAV are, for the most part, action comedies. The movies were the only parts that tended to deadly serious (although
some of that stuff with the Black Labor...)
