I am seriously considering blocking anyone who replies saying that Death Note is the best High-Quality Anime Drama. That's like thinking Atlas Shrugged is the Great American Novel.

I consider Cowboy Bebop more of an action with well written dramatic elements.
...I suppose one could make the same argument for Code Geass, but it's a tad more cerebral than Cowboy Bebop.
I was actually just thinking about this the other day and how there's sort of the strange...dig? At Evangelion maybe?
The plot goes in a weird direction for a while, but it somehow works to point things in a very Gundam Wing direction after that.
Anyhow, Lelouch is certainly a more sympathetic and good, or at least morally grey character than Light, which sort of lends to Death Note maybe losing steam towards the end of its run.

...On THAT note, I think Death Note deserves props for being pretty original in an age where anime and manga seems to be mostly about who can copy existing ideas the best.
Animes I have not seen: MadoMagi, Attack of the Titans (except for half an episode), Haruhi (except for YTPs), Utena (except for half an episode), RahXephon (except for half an episode), Cardcaptor Sakura (except for one episode), Lupin III, Fullmetal Alchemist (except for maybe an episode of Brotherhood), Steins;Gate, Gintama, Fate/Stay Night, Princess Mononoke, Trigun, Hellsing, Gundam (except one ep of 00), Nadesico, Samurai Champloo, and many more
Questions 16: The middle-aged man of Fuyuki, Kiritsugu, holds two powers. One of them is the Command Seal, the power to give absolute command to the strongest Servant. The other power is the Contender. With magical bullets that have the power to destroy a mage's magic circuit, carrying with him the nickname "Magus Killer," Kiritsugu began making his move. To obtain the Holy Grail, and to create a peaceful world where everyone can live in happiness. [ Area 11 · Pizza Hut regular ]
Nasu: At the end of a long misunderstanding, Kiritsugu was finally able to reconcile with Iri. Little did he know that Iri would take a simple joke like "For example, to kill all humans?" seriously. Later, a blood stained Iri.

Well, I wouldn't say Cowboy Bebop is mindless by any stretch of the imagination, there are elements of Code Geass I'd say are a bit more thought provoking.
Honestly though, if Code Geass counts as a "drama" on some level or another, Cowboy Bebop probably does, too. Except for maybe Cowboy Bebop being a genre onto itself. :P

The best High Quality Anime Comedy, is, of course, Goro Goro Iki.

Kara no Kyoukai, though I'm not sure about the geminate k. It's how it's abbreviated in Japan. IllFlower uses it.

While I have not seen the former, I really find that hard to believe. More convoluted, yes, but Bebop has a lot going on beneath the surface.

Much like The Sopranos and Breaking Bad.
