Bubblegum Crisis/AD Police looks interesting. Are the Animeigo releases good or should I look at Japanese releases first?
I am assuming the Tokyo 2040 series is a remake of the original. That worth watching? For the time being, the original OVA and the AD Police OVA look interesting. 2040 is indeed a remake. many claim it has far better character development than the original, but personally, IMO, the animation, technical design and most especially the soundtrack do not even begin to approach the incredible quality of the two original OAV series. to each their own, i suppose...

If you want English subtitles, you will have to go for American releases, except in a very few cases, such as Memories & Ghost in the Shell. You might well enjoy both of those, however. (The latter also made it to US LD, which might be easier to find.) Bubblegum Crisis & Armitage III are both good suggestions — I don't feel that either the Bubblegum Crash (sequel series) or AD Police Files (prequel series) are as good. I could also suggest The Venus Wars, and a personal favourite of mine, Wings of Honneamise. Both of the latter are SF, but very character driven. Getting away from the SF theme, but avoiding the "young men fighting" type of series, there are substantially fewer titles available in US release. I'd recommend trying some "Kimagure Orange Road", which is a kind of junior-high romance/comedy with fantasy elements, to see if it suits your taste — my capsule description doesn't do it justice, though. Out of a library of over 500 anime releases, I have over 150 American ones (which is a goodly fraction of those which exist), but without more data, it's hard for me to recommend anything for you!

What about "perfect blue" or "macross plus movie edition". Otherwise you can always try Dokushin Apartment Dokudami-sou Vol. 1 / Vol. 2 / Vol. 3

I don't know how's the quality of the US version, but I have the Japanese Slayers Season 1 LDbox, and the quality is awesome in both terms of the picture and the sound and its quite superior compared to the Japanese DVDbox release. Here's a screenshot comparison between the uncompressed R2J DVD pics and the LDrip pics that I've made. Trust me, the quality is even more awesome.
