It's already number 2 on my game list, and I still haven't beaten it!

Must be some game. It's things like that this that make me wish I still played video games.

I'll say what I said before. This is a new game high. It happens all the time with games, TV shows, etc. They seem better while you're currently playing/watching them, hence why it being #2 doesn't mean much. Case in point: "zomg NGE = best anime ever. There's no way I could ever find something better tha-What's this about Eureka Seven?"

Now Naruto, that's a good ani*gets shot* manga/japenese anime.

Naruto would be good, except it lacks a good story, good comedy, good fight scenes, good drama, good characters, good music, good animation, a good concept, and good pacing. =/

It has a decent story, decent comedy, good fight scenes when they're not explaining every move, a bit of drama here and there, Rock Lee and Hinata make up for everyone else in terms of good characters, great music, good animation, great concept, no pacing whatsoever.

Yet E7 still seems to be #1 on my anime list... months after I watched it.

It has a decent story,

Not so far. I've only seen up to the Chuunin exams, but NOTHING HAS HAPPENED.

decent comedy,

For a 5 year old, maybe.

good fight scenes when they're not explaining every move,

Rock Lee vs. Gaara, Hinata vs. Neji, and Sasuke vs. Chuunin exam fodder were the only good fights thus far. And the latter two are only decent.

a bit of drama here and there,

Nearly all of it being Lee's.

Rock Lee and Hinata make up for everyone else in terms of good characters,

Lee, Gai, Shikamaru, and MAYBE Hinata. That's it. And the considering Lee doesn't fight again for like 100 episodes, and Hinata NEVER fights again (IIRC), they don't make up for the totally horrible remainder of the cast.

great music, good animation,

WROOOOOOONG.

great concept,

I've seen it before. It was called Dragonball, and they didn't claim to be ninja. GO ON SOME GODDAMN ESPIONAGE MISSIONS OR STOP CALLING YOURSELVES NINJA, DAMMIT.

no pacing whatsoever.

By "pacing" I mean, the show has gone on for 52 episodes and is not over yet. 52 is the max before an anime's pacing fails.

Also, with the exception of the aforementioned E7, there is nothing even close to NGE.

Paranoia Agent is a very distant third.

Make Bebop 3rd, and PA 5th. Still, NGE has quite the lead on Bebop.

Also, you've only seen up to the Chuunin Exam, it gets better.

Not that great. Better than DBZ and DBGT by far, but eh. Mostly it's just Naruto+.

Also, you've only seen up to the Chuunin Exam, it gets better.

Most people seem to think the Chuunin Exam is the best part. =/

Nah, all it's values get better when Naruto meets Jiraya, especially in comedy. At least in the japanese version anyway.
