Um...no.
Teknoman is just a poorly dubbed, heavily edited version of
Space Knight Tekkaman Blade, which is a fine show. If possible, try and look for the original uncut and subtitled episodes of this series.

Record of Lodoss War: Very D&Dish, since it's inspired by it (to a certain extent, depending on the movie you watch), but sub-par in animation quality due to the age (still okay).
You know, I used to love
Lodoss War, but then I realized how much was cut from the original novels (which are excellent IMO, sure wish they get translated), that my opinion of the anime has somewhat lessened. I still like it though, but it's not the best fantasy anime out there. That distinction belongs to
Berserk.

I've not seen very much of it, but my first impressions of Ergo Proxy are nice: Seems to be a bit Blade Runner-esque, and looks certainly non-cutesy. You may want to give it a try as soon as it is available.
I've just started watching this. It's a little slow paced, but the design work is great (a nice mixture of futuristic and gothic), and the music is awesome (love that Opening theme
). Hopefully it gets better as I watch more of it.

Patlabor I and II - I cannot recommend these enough.
Question, do you mean the two movies or the two OAV series?

I find the Gundam shows to be a little one-dimensional but they seem to lack the corny cliches
Among all the Gundam shows I've watched, the original
Mobile Suit Gundam still rocks my boat, despite the dated animation and 70's era sensibilities. Some people will say though, that the sequel series, 1985's
Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam is superior, but I disagree. I just hated the main character Camille Vidan that I never bothered watching the rest of it.
Oh, and listen to what everyone is saying. Give
Cowboy Bebop a chance, you won't regret it.
