Its odd that it isent tagged as a tragedi since it got the element in it.
EDIT: That might be why its tagged as "drama" insteed.(tho i whould put both tags on it.)

Not really. It wasn't as much tragic as dramatic (which is why it's labeled that). Nothing terrible happened in the story that could make it a tragedy (unless there's something in the end that is so tragic that it had to apply to the entirety of the series).
EDIT: So I finally finished the series, and yeah, there's nothing tragic to make it be called a tragedy.
Anyway, if you're looking for a good dramatic romance, Nagi no Asukara is one hell of a way to go. The feels are nearly equal to those from Angel Beats.

No wait, I don't think so.... They were a bunch of really odd monsters; like one threw a person up in the air and impaled him/her through the anus with its spikey appendage, and some people got sliced in half, some got crushed to death and it was just super gorey.

Mind you, Hellsing and Hellsing: Ultimate have two very different plotlines. The scenario you just described sounds like it came from Hellsing: Ultimate.

Definitely not Hellsing or Hellsing: Ultimate.
EDIT: Hah, I missed the fact that it said "Blood-C" right there. So yeah, that's the name, I guess.
This feels worse than Hellsing: Ultimate tbh. That's just fucking vomit-inducing right there.

Oh, I agree. I was just talking with a friend about violent anime and I remembered watching that. Like especially the girl that gets her legs ripped off...

That 100+ episode OVA space opera with 660 named characters (there's so much that their names have to flashed on screen when they appear again in the later episodes) and a sometimes painfully slow pace? Yeah know Legend of Galatic Heroes, all thanks to TV Tropes no less. I've been meaning to give it try since last summer, but general laziness stopped me.
Also my brother watched Tytania, by the same creator, which was a watered down version of LoGH. It wasn't that good.

It certainly is a trek, though it's still marvelous. You should watch the prequel My Conquest Is the Sea of Stars and Overture to a New War beforehand to see if you'll be willing to commit to the show.
It's nice to see a fellow troper btw.

I have been in a very sci-fi mood lately after much fantasy overdoes, as well as on a hiatus from watching lots of anime, so I think I might just be in the mood to finally give this show a whirl. I've heard only good things about it, but the amount of episodes has kept me waiting to find a good time, and Christmas break is good of time as any. Thanks for mentioning it!
Btw, I have to wait until April to get part 2 of F/S Night Unlimited Bladeworks. That makes me sad, and the ending of the first season also frustrated me greatly. I put up with the great amounts of deus ex machina that F/S Night was throwing off, because it was all in good fun and interesting. But, really?
Making Casters noble phantasm something that further breaks the rules even though she had done it a million times, stealing saber away, complete cliffhanger, and THEY CALL THE PHANTASM "RULE BREAKER" ?!?? REALLY!??
Despite that, I have really enjoyed the new Fate/Stay Night and am looking forward to more.

If you're considering Dues Ex Machina
Gilgamesh can win the war instantly but his arrogance prevents him from doing so
If Saber obtains her sheath she's nigh unkillable
If Archer wasn't so pursuant on his goal he would almost have no match
Hell even projection and reality marble's themself are so broken the world rejects them
The Holy Grail

The only thing I'm concerned with is if Ufotable has the maturity to handle a certain scene properly near the end of the Anime.

Duly noted.
And likewise seeing another troper (tbh I'm surprised you didn't know I was a troper, I've linked there many times so people know what I'm saying.)

That was just outright horrible especially since she was screaming for it to stop...
On a lighter note, anyone got some romcom recommendations? I've got some under my bag and I'm trying to keep going.
Currently Watching: Special A
Watched (this might get long): Toradora!, Towanai (Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko), Noucome, Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo, Tonari no Kaibutsu-Kun, Hayate no Gotoku! (every single series), Oreimo, My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU, Baka to Test (not sure if that classifies as one), Haganai (Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai), and probably some more that I don't remember...
but yeah, some recommendations would be great.
