Anime recommendation for foreign people 2011 Spring

I recommend a few animations in this season.

1. 花咲くいろは Hana-saku Iroha
http://www.hanasakuiroha.jp/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanasaku_Iroha
A female high school student, Iroha, starts working at a ryokan, a Japanese hotel
because her parents escaped from their debts.
They put Iroha in the ryokan whose Okami is Iroha's grandmother.

You can watch the backstage of a Japanese ryokan,
and the growth of Iroha.


2. 日常 Nichijou

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nichijou#Anime
Comedy animation. A set of short stories.
The same company as Haruhi makes it.
It is easy because each story is short,
but difficult because this is a absurd comedy.
# Understanding comedy is the most difficult task!

Even if you cannot understand the story,
you can enjoy the cute and dynamic animation.


3. 逆境無頼カイジ  Gyakkyou Burai Kaiji
http://www.ntv.co.jp/kaiji_hakairoku/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaiji_(manga)
A gamble animation.
The central character カイジ, who is a son of Belial with a lot of debts,
tries a dangerous gamble to clean his debts.

This is the 2nd season of 賭博黙示録カイジ (Tobaku Mokushiroku Kaiji).
I recommend you to watch the 1st season since
you are required some back story about カイジ.

You will hear a lot of slangs.
