I really really enjoyed Dennou Coil. Once the actual story kicked in the scope got much narrower, but the last episode was really moving and all the subtle thematic touches got wrapped up super nicely, perhaps a bit too neatly for my liking, but I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would, especially since it seemed to me like a weird mix of Megaman Battle Network/Star Force, Persona and SMT: Soul Hackers at first.
Go watch Dennou Coil everybody, it's a good bildungsroman inside of a fun and interesting wrapper. And I kind of liked the message of being able to connect with others only after you connect with yourself and your emotions that is increasingly hammered in throughout the show.
Didn't quite get why Tamako was just Hitomi/Nemissa from Soul Hackers design-wise though.
