Any recommendations?

I feel like I've been losing interest in anime in general and yaoi in particular. Not that I don't like either, it just seems that I can't find anything to catch my interest of late. The last anime series I really got into (though I could never write fanfic for it for some reason) was FullMetal Alchemist.

Can anyone recommend a really good anime? Death Note, Bleach and Naruto don't really appeal, though I've tried. The day-in-the-life stories of Japanese teenagers don't really hold much interest, either. Perhaps something with a really good plot and maybe some supernatural elements? It doesn't have to be yaoi, either.

I just don't have time to do a lot of browsing and I know I want something interesting... I just don't know what.

I'm currently whoring out Sword of the Stranger to everyone I can - it's a film rather than a series, set in fuedal japan. It's - GORGEOUS, kinda action orientated but realistic with it! The characters are interesting, and the supernatural element is kinda "We've gonna do crazy rituals to make an emperor immortal!" The sub's available for torrent in lots of places (in fact! It is the only thing you can get hold of when looking for uh anything to do with it!), so it's relatively easy to get hold of?

Failing that, you could try small_fandoms - there's lots of recs being posted there, and most of what I've seen is supernatural-related anime/manga, often with links to downloads and stuff!
