scifi anime

I'm a big fan of futuristic, or mystic types of sci-fi anime. I've only seen a handful of probably the most common ones but wanted to see if anyone else has some favorites they could share. My favorites would have to be Akira, Princess Mononoke, Animatrix, and Ghost in the Shell.

Cowboy Bebop is excellent sci-fi anime.
The series of Evangelion could have been better IMO, but the "End of Evangelion" movie is a truly crazy psychedelic mindfuck.

Yeah. Gotta love it. The entire series deals alot with the psyche and shit like that. It does get slow/tiresome at points, but it's worth sticking with.

Death Note is more of an intellectual, psychological thriller type anime. really makes you think. i would not consider it scifi at all although it's really good regardless.
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann is the mecha/scifi anime to end all mecha/scifi animes. i highly highly recommend it. most fucking epic thing i've seen in a long time.
Serial Experiments: Lain (AMAZINGLY GOOD series!) Neon Genesis Evangelion (series and movies) Cowboy Bebop (series and movie) Trigun RahXephon Escaflowne Akira
just to name a few.

Ergo Proxy is nice, somewhat slow moving post-apocalyptic SF.
Dennou Coil has been compared to a cross between Lain and Totoro.
Good stuff both.

Escaflowne is good, although the series seemed a bit juvenile at times. I enjoyed the movie more than the series.
There is also Gantz, which is like...half sci-fi.

Nadia secret of blue water isnt too bad for a series
Nausicaa valey of the wind is an awesome post apocalyptic sci fi anime
Castle in the Sky is another awesome Miyazaki anime thats kind of post apocalyptic- it has a very complex plot though.

Don't see Lain mentioned yet. Seems to fit the bill. And its really good. But slow moving. Most seem to either love it or hate it.
