Moon Phase is actually a series, so you'll have plenty to watch. ^_^ My-HiME is a series that has a bunch of girls at a particular high school who develop some nifty supernatural powers, and chronicles the conflicts they go through with each other and outside forces as a result of said development. Both are a lot of fun.
Blade...eh. Didn't hate it, didn't love it. There are much better vampire movies/series/etc. Though I somehow don't think Twilight will be one of them.
Gunslinger Girl focuses on an agency that takes young girls that are terminally ill or injured and have no chance of otherwise surviving, and turns them into cyborg assassins in a cute-little-girl package. But they're still little girls, with many of the emotional issues that come along with that. I'm not doing it justice with my summary, but I don't want to ruin it for you. It's a pretty tragic series, but excellent nonetheless. The company that picked it up for a (much-demanded) second season added way too much fluff for many fan's tastes, including mine and my husband's, so we stick to reading the manga as we can find scanlations (it's an ongoing manga series, but they so far have only released volumes 1-3 in the US, and they only covered a few volumes in the anime).
