Sol- try Barakamon which is a really solid and entertaining series. It's really heartwarming and hilarious.
Action- try Noragami which is a really solid and entertaining action anime. Season 2 incoming in the Fall.
Sci-fi- try Yamato 2199 though I haven't seen it myself but AnimeGaf loves it a lot.

Here's one quick suggestion:
From the New World. If you haven't watched it, you must.
Noragami. Modern fantasy with great action and comedy.
I'd suggest Legend of Galactic Heroes, but wait for blu-ray for that one.
If nobody else has given you suggestions by the time I come back from running with my dog I'll write you more.
Season 2 coming in the Fall.

I second this.
Second season
Dennis, if you haven't already, watch Space Dandy. It's a Sci-Fi Anthology series with a wide variety of different subjects and tones throughout its 26 episode run but its best parts represent some of the best modern anime has to offer. I guarantee you will find something, probably A LOT of somethings, you'll love <3

But what if it ends up being a bunch of moe girls beating each other up with Hockey sticks?

So long as one of them is Canadian, it's cool.
So Pretty Rhythm but with more combat?
I need a few more details to flesh this out.

I should pay more attention to Discotek releases. Will gladly support.

Now that I think about it having a bunch of moe girls beating each other up with Hockey sticks would be amazing. It would have two different factions going against each other.
Why hasn't anyone thought of this?

The Idolm@ster 24
So Haruka's either become a kidnapper or a schizophrenic. Idol life!
The melodrama is well done and all, and dat budget,but dammit, the show's never better than when it's all-out insanity.

But it has to be violent moe girls for it to actually fit Hockey.
Jam Project OPs are always a delight.

There's a music video for Gundam 30th Anniversary with Jam Project's Skill and it's one of the best AMVs I've ever seen, but too bad all videos of it got deleted/muted on YT.
I think Patlabor Early Days OVA/1st Movie is a great mix of slice of life and action/sci-fi, with a ton of comedy too.

Oh, they'll be using the sticks alright.
But not hitting each other with it.

Lupin III: Steal Napoleon's Dictionary!

Looks like we're into episodic content. Should be good but I kinda liked how the previous arc built up how it did. Also Hammerblow Joe talking shit to Cobra behind his impenetrable glass wall only to have Cobra's punches finally crack it was the fucking best.
Third of the Dezaki Lupin specials, it's hard for me to make a call on this one. I'm one for three on liking which of these I've watched so far but I still have this narrow view of the franchise as I've mostly been exposed to the stuff Koike touched, the Masaki Osumi eps, and Miyazaki/Takahata green jacket eps. Not having really been exposed to the red or pink jacket series there's a lingering thought that maybe the specials that I just don't "get" are channeling some sort of tone I'm simply unused to.

And so ends the arc about the Nelson triplets and the Nelson's treasure. Wasn't quite sure i followed the resolution but it was suitably pulpy enough that I didn't feel the need to ask too many questions.

Shokugeki no Soma 2-3
I don't know what it is, but all this tension and dialogue about how tough a food-taster is followed by Soma immediately being all: "I GOT THIS SHIT" and cooking something that blows their minds is just so damn satisfying to watch.
All this creativity that he displays when he explains how he made the food is very entertaining as well.
This is awesome!

Closet we'll ever get is that jdrama Pride. Then again, considering how crappy sports anime tends to be, I don't know if I would care unless it was basically an anime adaptation of Pride or about the national women's team or something equally niche.

This is Dresden when he is writing his new novel.
On a side note, it's really weird seeing "anime" memes in real life. Moreso when it's a well known character wearing pantsu on his head taking deep sniffs in between typing his words in the next great American novel.

Itazura na kiss ep. 18- End:
I just gotta say a quick wow at this one. I didn't really know what I was getting into at first, but I jumped into it as a "romance" anime abd thought I'd check it out. Now after watching the series, I realize from the MAL that it is Shoujo, so it's geared towards women viewers, which makes sense the way it is presented. However, if you want a good love story, it's definitely a worthwhile watch through the 24 episodes (25th is you typical spin-off/add-on episode). As I said before, the fact that this one follows the couple from H.S and through college into adult life is awesome and really makes a difference in its presentation. At times, you really want to punch the MC in the face (Mr. Tsundere), however, the cute moments with the couple really stand out and they definitely go through a lot of character development. They also do an excellent job implementing real life worries and insecurities into the series to really drive home the feels from not just the main couple, but from those around them. There is comedy throughout since the heroine plays such a scatter brained character which keeps things interesting. There's some added drama from outside characters as well which can detract from the primary story at times, but in the end it just reinforces the fact that everyone is there for them and cheering them on. And my, the feels from those final scenes, lol. It's great! In the end, it is a heartwarming series and great love story. As I said, the genre isn't for everyone, but with the adult themes and the right amount of feels, I'm glad I was able to experience it.

Funimation's put up a listing for a premium edition of Free! Eternal Summer. Oddly enough, it mention that customers who buy it will get a discount on the OVA, meaning that they're selling the Free! Eternal Summer OVA separately. It's a bit odd, coming from them; that's something I'd expect more out of Sentai.

I... see...
The show is a fun watch. Hope you enjoy. Didn't know I wanted the show and love it so much until like 5 episodes in. After that I was hooked.
BONES sure is ready for a worldwide release: http://concreterevolutio.com/

This episode would really suck if it was the first one you saw or it was randomly on TV because you have to know the characters and jokes by voice only, lol
Amazing ending though, even though I saw it coming from a mile away
