I recently finished watching Kaleido Stars, and it's a cute series. ^_^

I have it on DVD, but I think you can bittorent it here: AnimeYume


--- Quote ---Sora, a young girl from Japan, comes to America in search of her dream. She wants, with all her heart, to be a member of the famous Kaleido Stage, a combination of musicals, acrobatics and magical effects. With the help of her friends, she struggles to make this dream come true.

- From Anime News Network

It has 2 OVAs and some fairly renowned seiyuu. Two you might recognize are Aya Hisakawa (Kero-chan in CCS) and Sayaka Ohara (Yuuko in xxxHOLiC). ^^ Also, I don't think it was a manga first...

from animenfo:

"During the winter, Yuichi was hospitalized due to hepatitis. Randomly he would try to escape from the hospital but would get beat up by the nurse. One day, he happened to meet Rika, a girl of his age, in the next building. He was fascinated by her beauty, but she was very selfish girl. Although she led him by the nose, he began to be attracted by her. However, when Rika told him about her illness, he knew why she acted so selfish; she didn't have long to live."

Utawareru mono (  the one being sung) torrent
Taken from ANN

--- Quote ---Hakuoro has lost his memory after succumbing to serious injuries; but thanks to a elderly woman and her granddaughter Eruruu, he is nursed back to health. His face is covered by a strange irremovable mask and he occasionally sees beastly visions. Eruruu now cares for him as he becomes accustomed to the village and its inhabitants who all bear strange ears (the women have tails too). Though these people venerate the forces of nature, desecration of an alter forces them to take drastic measures to preserve their lives...

Mushishi    torrent
Taken from ANN

--- Quote ---They are neither plants nor animals. They differ from other forms of life such as the micro-organisms and the fungi. Instead they resemble the primeval body of life and are generally known as "Mushi". Their existence and appearance are unknown to many and only a limited number of humans are aware of them. Ginko is a "Mushi-shi" who travels around to investigate and find out more about the "Mushi". In the process, he also lends a helping hand to people who face problems with supernatural occurances which may be related to the "Mushi".

Has anyone found a good place to download the anime for that?  Youtube has some of the episodes but every place I go to either doesn't have it or the link isn't working.

Is it allowed to ask for that?  If not, I'll delete the post.
