Evangelion: Death and Rebirth
Originally a collection of clips from the Neon Genesis Evangelion TV series, Death was created as a precursor to the re-worked ending of the series. Rebirth was intended as that reworked ending but after production overruns became only the first half of the first episode of The End of Evangelion, with some minor differences. Over time, two newer director's cuts of Death were produced, each including new footage not seen in the series - these were called Death (True) and finally Death (True)^2. Note that despite containing clips from the series, Death (True)^2 & Rebirth should be seen after the series itself to be fully understood.

Kotoura-san
Ever since Kotoura Haruka was a little girl, she was able to read the minds of those surrounding her. And even though this gift may be special, in her life so far it only had devastating results: Her innocent babbling led to the divorce of her parents, who then left her with her grandfather. And in school Haruka loses all her friends, since none of them would or could admit the truths Haruka was able to so easily read in their minds.
Haruka transfers to a new school, but has no hope of finding friends, and thus decides to keep quiet about her ability. That is, until she meets Manabe Yoshihisa, an imaginative slightly perverted boy, who becomes her first true friend, vowing to always stand by her side. Soon the enthusiastic Mifune Yuriko, president of the Paranormal Society (ESP) club, learns of Haruka's ability and vehemently invites her — literally dragging her off — to join the club. There the club's only other member, the under-tall, level-headed vice president Muroto Daichi welcomes her. Both Yuriko and Daichi readily accept Haruka... and for the first time she is happy, surrounded by friends, who do not treat her like a freak.
