In 2003 a anime giant was born in the form of Fullmetal Alchemist. The first and one of the very few shows in general (not only Japanese or animated) to be well balanced. It got great action, but it also got great dialogues! It got great humor but it also got great drama! It got a great timeless soundtrack but once it also got great pop songs in the openings and endings!
It got it's flaws (particular with the ending). But even then it's balanced up! It's very hard to find a story THIS balanced in any media, and when I find a show like this, it just make my day better. I definitely recommend it.
