K-on...i should think twice...because volcaloid i still havent complete...
It's not the same as Vocaloids at all afaik. Vocaloids are more music video icons (I think) while K-On is actually a very heart-warming story about a clueless girl who joins a school band and learns to play the guitar along the way. It's so fun that everyone should watch it at least once - the seiyu who plays Yui really makes the character come to life!

it can be finished in less than a week
quite a nice recommendation over there! tantei opera while having low scores, it is surprisingly funny mainly because of their idiocy
i still like kokoro-chan the most from that series!
of all the anime u listed, I'd pick steins;gate as the top
The scary thing is you're probably right about the week, but it'd have to be a week where you didn't have to work or go to school. And you'd have to sacrifice and miss out on a lot of other things. Certainly many of the animes are in the "cannot-stop" category!
Oh, I liked Kokoro-chan and G4 (especially the girl with the lollipop in the mouth and the laptop), and I absolutely adored Henrietta in student mode (she was cool in Arsene mode, but you don't really see the endearing side of her then). If the four Milky Holmes girls didn't exist in the anime it would have been quite enjoyable, but then there wouldn't be a story. It was one of the few animes I aborted halfway. For some reason I got curious about season 2 and watched episode 1 too - things haven't changed and I think I'll abort it there too! Nendo-wise the four girls are really well-done, but to be honest I probably wouldn't have bought the set if it wasn't for the Goodsmile PVC Arsene figure. She'll be the centrepiece and I'll surround her with the four Nendos. Tragically I still can't find Arsene anywhere so Milky Holmes stay in their boxes for now!
Steins;Gate was really wonderful. Made me cry like a girl while watching on my laptop in Starbucks - didn't expect certain episodes to pull at the heartstrings so much .. the entire feel of the anime just changes without warning, and it's all so masterfully done! The ending also has a final feel to it, so there won't be any sequels, making it feel that much more precious. There's an OVA out there somewhere recently, I think, but I still haven't watched it. Still haven't found labcoat Kurisu's Nendo too!

*Tries to hold in the ultimate fangirl-rant about how amazing Madoka Magica is and how there are only very few series that can compare to it*
@Charsiupao: For Steins;Gate they also announced FeyrisNyannyan, though nothing has been heard/seen about her ever since.
(And I reaaaally hope they make Okariiiin since he scored so high during the voting..)
Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii wake ga nai (or something XDD), there's also Ayase (though she doesn't have much of a presence, one of the most boring nendoroids I have seen..)
For Milky Holmes there's also the game-exclusive Sharo and Kokoro is being made as well.
I hope they make more of the girls from Kami Nomi.. especially Chihiro.. ;____;
(Sorry, I just had to act like a nerd for a little.. x_x)

Oh, and I should start watching Fate/Zero.. I really want that Saber on her motor but I know NOTHING about her or the series and I can't justify 'just' buying nendoroids anymore.. x_x
Puella Magi Madoka Magica was very very good, no reason to hold back. Just make your praise with reference to Nendos and it'll be ok! I didn't expect to end up buying so many PMMM figures when I started watching.. I thought I'd watch it because Tomoe Mami looked like a really cool figure. Little did I know how early she'd be removed, and how gripping the story was. The music also played a BIG part - it was really good, and made me feel a lot more immersed in the story than I would normally do... and poor Homura. She tried so hard, and I can't imagine what it must be like in her shoes, playing through failure after failure almost forever, trapped in a loop of torture that can only eventually end in one way. I can't stop thinking about her. Thanks to the quality of the show I have 3 Nendos (skipped Madoka and Sakura who I didn't like that much), the Petit set (which I have to say isn't as nice as the other petit sets I have. The colours are more pastel-paint compared to the more smooth feel of other petits, but that's probably due to the PMMM art style), all 5 magical girl Figmas, and I'm now seriously considering getting 1/8 PVCs for the three girls I like too - I saw Mami and Homura at Anime Fest Asia, and they looked so so good. Going to end up being the second costliest after K-On for me.....
Feyris would be great, and very suitable for Nendo in terms of looks, although her character is rather minor (one of those which made me cry, though). I wish they'd seriously make Okarin and maybe also Daru. He should be easy enough to make and be lots of fun. For Steins;Gate fans, having Kurisu without Okarin is just... wrong. It's like having Figma Rei Ayanami and Asuka Langley without Shinji Ikari...
I actually like Ayase's Nendo. It's boring, true, with barely any accessories, and quite expensive for what you get, but she does look really cute. I've stuffed her in a display diorama with Muto Ashirogi and Eiji Niizuma, so she probably doesn't like me much, but that sweating, distressed faceplate was just asking for it!!! I can't wait for Kokoro's Nendo - it looked really good, never seen Sharo since not only did I not play the game, I didn't even finish the anime! Still waiting on the inevitable Henrietta Nendo!!
To be honest, I can't remember any of the girls from Kami Nori. The only one I can even recall the face of was the one who bought out the Yakisoba bread in the school canteen, and that's because she looked really striking. All of them had a rather minor role in the overall scheme of things, though, and disappeared from the series after their spirits were recovered - would have been nice if they reappeared and at least remembered something (but that would probably make life uncomfortable for the protagonist). It was a really clever series, although that last episode was a bit of an insult to gamers. Still great fun, and I'm waiting for Season 2!
Fate Zero is just awesome - you'll get more than you bargained for if you really just want to watch it for Saber. The only down side is you know how it will end, and the characters are done so well that you can't help but like them. Even Gilgamesh, who I detested in Fate Stay Night, has a certain charm in Fate Zero. When the inevitable petit set comes I'm definitely buying it, although I really hope that we'll see Iskandar in Nendo form someday. Not likely, but still worth dreaming about. Complete with chariot and petit Waver Velvet.
