Tend to agree...
The tech is pretty in NGE, but I don't like how they handle the characters. I like to see some positive character development in an anime, and NGE didn't deliver for me.
I would agree that, Dual, for example, seemed to deliver everything that NGE promised, and had a broader splash of humour, that I liked.
If I come to buy DVDs, so as to watch again, Dual will be on my purchase list, and NGE wont.
Dai-Guard looked like fun as well, particularly the idea of an under-financed defense mecha project, and I would like to see more of it. Ditto Ra Xephon, though bits of that looked to be getting a bit cosmic for ready enjoyment.
All three of these are far more likely to be on my "buy" list than EVA, which in style reminds me a bit of "Grey"; everyone dies and everything is thoroughly messed-up.
