Eureka Seven
Renton Thurston is the fourteen-year-old son of Adrock Thurston, a military researcher who died saving the world. He lives what he considers a boring life with his mechanic grandfather in a boring town. He loves lifting, the sport of riding atmospheric trapar particles with a board, and dreams of joining the crew of the renegade Gekkostate and its leader, the legendary lifter Holland.
Such an opportunity literally falls into his lap when a special LFO, called Nirvash, and a member of Gekkostate crash into Renton's room, which is right next to his grandpa's garage. Thanks in part to his use of his father's Amita Drive to power up the Nirvash in a crucial fight, Renton is invited to join Gekkostate, where he quickly discovers that the behind-the-scenes life of Gekkostate is hardly as glamorous or as interesting as he imagined. Only one thing makes it all worthwhile for him: the presence of Eureka, the mysterious and rather cute girl who pilots Nirvash.
The story revolves around Renton's budding relationship with Eureka, the female pilot of the LFO Nirvash typeZERO, and the mystery of the Coralians.

Wondering if anyone knows of or has seen this amazing anime series. I'm watching it again for the second time and it's still great. Besides the usual drama, mecha, romance, and comedy elements, the creators of the series have taken influence from surf and rave culture. You'll see mentions of stuff like "Summer of Love," "Love Parade," and "ray=out." Some episode titles take from dance music, such as episode 1's "Blue Monday."
Check the wiki link for more info and *spoilers*. If you watch anime, you have to check out the series, it's the best I've seen yet.
BONES also did RahXephon, Scrapped Princess, Wolf's Rain, and Full Metal Alchemist.
