Alright. I'll fill out a few.

Best Anime Villain : Probably Griffith from Berserk because he has such incredible depth and is probably the most cold-hearted character in an anime.

Best Anime Hero : Himura Kenshin is a great hero character. He represents honour and positivity but my favourite is probably Spike Spiegel because he oozes coolness, has a good reason for doing what he does and is just plain likeable.

Best Anime Heroine : I might say Motoko Kusanagi from the Ghost in the Shell movie and series. She's the first one I think of as being a good and well developed heroine. Unlike Spike and Kenshin she's a little less pure in her actions though, so it's hard to think of her as being completely a hero figure.

Best Anime Action Sequence : I'd probably go with either the train or tower fights from Knockin' on Heaven's Door or Spike escaping from that facility disguised as a janitor. The fight scenes in the Rurouni Kenshin OVAs (first and second sets) are great.

Best Characters : I like the Neon Genesis Evangelion cast a lot. The Jubei-chan (1 and 2) and FLCL cast is great because they're so colourful and dynamic which I like a lot. Cowboy Bebop is also really good.

Best Animation (overall) : I really like BONES style so Cowboy Bebop, Rah Xephon, and Wolf's Rain all had great animation. I'd agree with meryl and say that Wolf's Rain is most likely the most consistently well animated shows. The Metropolis movie is visually fantastic and I really like the work that Gainax and Project I.G. put out.

Best Soundtrack : Yoko Kanno is very talented as well as the musicians she works with. My all time favourite is definently Cowboy Bebop but I like the other BONES production's music. FLCL, Hellsing and Gad Guard have also had really stand out music. I'm drawn to soundtracks that aren't typical cheery J-Pop/J-Rock.

That's all I've got for now.
