AHHHHH, The first episode there is a 2-3 second clip of these young boys going on a porn website and you could see boobs and my mum walked in and now I think she has the wrong impression of me.

LOL! While I was at my mums last week my dad looked through my computer history and found an episode of Kanokon, which is like 100% eechi, boobs and stuff, but not quite hentai. I know he looked because he was so foolish to not delete the history that was left by him at the weekend. I don't know what impression he has of me, but he hasn't said anything. Male's understand.

Anyway, as for Paranoia Agent. I loved it, and I'd probably fit it into my top 15. It's extremely different from what you've watched before though, there are no fights or anything. It's a psychological thriller, and it really does excel in that manner. It's really mysterious and dark, and the villain in the series is so cool. If you're in the mood for a very mysterious psychological thriller, then go ahead, because you won't find anything better than Paranoia Agent. Unless you want to fit Death Note in that category as well. I still say that Paranoia Agent has one of the most interesting first episodes ever, and one of the most interesting plots and characters as well.

I watched episode 1 yesterday, seemed a bit slow though.
The intro is really freaky where they high when they made it.

Nah, since the anime was aired late at night in Japan they wanted an opening that would catch poples attention and suddenly tell them to wake up. The ending is the exact opposite, it tells eveyone that the episode is now over, and they can go to sleep. All is explained in the director's commentary.

I wouldn't really say that Paranoia Agent is slow, it does only have 13 episodes afertall. However, there are two or three episodes that really aren't related to the main cast, they almost seem random, but they're still very good.

I recommend that you watch Sword of the Stranger before Paranoia Agent though.
