Need another anime series?!


Question: I'm looking for something similar to Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo. Something with a fixed number of episodes (around 30, unless there is one with more, that you think I absolutely MUST see), that won't drag on forever.

I've already seen the ones mentioned above as well as Gun X Sword, Last Exile, Ergo Proxy, GTO, Trigun and Evangelion (the last one wasn't really my cup of tea). Keep in mind I'm 22 and would like something a little more mature.
