Oban Star Racers
I remember when this show first aired on Jetix, I was way young at the time but I thought the trailers looked cool and I wanted to watch it. I saw episodes here and there, several moments really stood out to me but I didn't see the show in full cause it aired around my curfew back then. At the very least I know I saw the final episode.
Somehow despite such an incomplete viewing, the show stuck with me and I wanted to watch it again. I picked up the 15th anniversary Bluray some time back and just watched the whole show across 4 days last week, it was fantastic.
Immediately what I think about it is the alien and ship design cause dern there were some awesome designs in the show. The Crog Trident has lived in my head rent free since I first saw the show. Elements of it influenced the little comics I drew for fun.
Suffice it to say I think the show is fantastic, a lot of fun and well worth watching. I'd recommend it easily! I still need to look at all the behind the scenes features but I wanted to shout out my 3 favorite episodes.
Silent Like Spirit - the whole thing
Ominous Like O - for the confrontation that was building since the first episode
Canaletto's Revenge - which features the final race that is a really great conclusion
Now that I've relived this great nostalgia trip, next old anime on my list to track down and watch is IGPX which funny enough I looked it up to find they are planning to release a bluray of that this year XD

An alternative universe where Oban: Star Racers got five seasons, several movies and a sequel easily, while Miraculous ended after twenty six episodes.
