The only ones from them I haven't seen yet is Ebichu and Kare Kano I believe.
In addition to what's already mentioned, they also did Nadia, which was pretty excellent overall. The pretty recent Mahoromatic which I enjoyed as well. The amazing Wings of Honneamise Movie. And the required watching Otaku No Video.
Quite an amzaing list of great stuff they have.
Gainax's Fans???

I only saw the first 4 eps of Magical Shopping District Abenobashi at Otakon and it's already become one of my favorites by Gainax. Eva was definitely their biggest hit (for a good reason), and Gunbuster is also one of my favorites. But another insanely good movie by Gainax is Otaku no Video. It's so great seeing a movie about otaku...

Re: THE 2ND ANGEL!!!!

OK...
Lillith is the 2nd Angel.
Again... in the Khaballa, of which Evangelion the TV series takes its religious references from, Adam and Lillith are not Angels.
However, in the case of the TV show, Adam is the First Angel.
Rei is a clone from Yui and Rei... so Rei is nothing more than an extension of Lillith. (While I hate to bring up the movie, they make that fact plain in the movie)
Rei I is more Yui than Lillith
Rei II is sort of a balance
Rei III is more Lillith than Yui.
Lillith is also the Angel they used to copy from when they made the EVAs...
Technically, Lillith was the first Angel that was found...
They discovered Adam's location because of what they had learned from Lillith.
Now... to further point this out... In the Khaballa, Lillith is the mother of all demons... and the descriptions of her children are the basis behind the design of why the EVA units look the way they do.
See?
The Evas were made from copying Lillith.
The Evas were designed from the descriptions of Lillith's children
Lillith is the mother of all demons
The EVAs are demons
The EVAs fight Angels...
Anyway...
According to the EVA storyline, the human race are children of Lillith as well.
You have to know where to break from the old stories from the Khaballa to where Gainax manipulated these stories for their own story purposes.
Just because Adam wasn't an angel in the Khaballa... Adam IS an Angel in the series.
Lillith was NOT the mother of the human race in the Khaballa... but she IS (apparently) the mother of the human race in EVA
One almost thinks that EVE doesn't exist in Evangelion's telling of the story.
You see... in the Khablla, Adam had three wives made for him and he rejected two before God made Eve.
The 2nd bride he rejected was Lillith...
In the movie (again, I hate to bring up the movie) Gendo hopes to assume the power of "instrumentality" by taking Adam (which is fused into his palm in the movie) and coupling with Lillith... in this case by coupling with Rei who is a clone of Lillith.
Could it be that the world of Evangelion is a world where Adam accepted Lillith and thus there was no Eve?
Anyway... these are just some thoughts I wanted to voice

There are two kinds of people in this world:
Those who divide people into two kinds of groups
and those who don't.

Actually... without going into too much detail...
Lillith... the 2nd Bride that was made for Adam was a woman made the same way as Adam. She had he own sense of self and her own desires and thus didn't always want to be with Adam... and this didn't set well with Adam and so God booted Lillith from Eden where she would eventually marry Cain and become the mother of demons... which just shows how anti-women the old religious sayers were...
Eve was mde from Adam's rib and was subservient to Adam... which suited Adam fine... see what I mean...
Anyway...
2nd Bride - Lillith - Strong sense of Self, had own agenda
3rd Bride - Eve - Docile and Subservient
2nd Child - Asuka - Strong willed, strong sense of self.
3rd Child - Shinji - Docile and subservient.
