I was rahter put off Inu Yasha & Ranma by the style of characters - they're on the kiddie cute side of things. Also, having watched the first YNM episode, I'm not so keen on the supernatural side of things (fuzzy demons etc). I might come back to those in a bit, but I'm after the more "normal" (if anime is ever normal...) stuff, with humans and guns and gore, at least to start with :)
