In the opening theme of Malcom In The Middle there are two scenes (i think) of a guy smiling and another guy riding on a skateboard. What anime series is that?

I've heard it's lame, but I've never seen it, so meh.

I rented the first dvd a while back. All I remember is it was odd, and had nice animation.

Personally I thought Nazca was pretty well done. I really enjoyed the fact that the whole series revolved around each of the characters past lives and how it turned old friends into bitter enemies and enemies into comrades in arms. Also, it is one of the few anime out there that used a symphonic opening number instead of the usual J-Pop.

Don't get me wrong, I like the J-Pop sequences, but the symphonic openings can be really refreshing. Overall, what really made the series for me are the philosophical questions that it brought up.
- Is there reincarnation?
- If so, are we destined to meet the same souls over again?
- Are we destined to repeat the mistakes of the past, no matter what we want?
- And, is love truly forever?

Wow, that is a lot for a first post.

A very strange, but somewhat entertaining show.
