i recently saw samurai 7, which started just so-so and then picked up. it had the original plotline of kurosawa's 7 samurai, then goes nuts-- nice plotlines and amusing characters. not super original but a nice mishmash of samurai, cyberpunk, and cartoon politics
the series has an annoying preview and summary sequences than can easily be skipped on the dvd-- just hit skip scene 5 times for next episode.
