Personally I won't judge the anime until I see an English trailer, and even then that would only be me judging it on what I've seen.
Assuming this anime is on the same level of quality in terms of story as Ghost in the Shell, Hellsing, Afro Samurai, or Fullmetal Alchemist then I'll be happy. Hell I'd even personally throw in Pokemon. Despite being filled with filler the stories it does tell -- generally involving the delicate balance of nature being disturbed -- have very mature undertones. Like Pokemon Hunter J, who poached Pokemon for profit and had no qualms about harming innocents, and to our knowledge she was killed off in the series.
I think there are some misconceptions on what anime truly is. I think people tend to associate the entire style of animation and storytelling with stuff like Beyblade -- an anime I myself detest -- and don't really see how great anime can really be as a storytelling medium.
I recommend that anyone who thinks anime is bad watch Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. Both the 1st GIG and the 2nd GIG. It's a cyberpunk anime that explores the political infrastructure of futuristic Japan. Around.... 2030 A.D. I believe.
If you look at certain manga -- which anime is usually based off of -- then they deal with some heavy themes or are very adult. Off the top of my head are manga series like DearS or Love Hina
Thus my comment that this trailer screams "BAD ANIME" to me.
I do like GiTS, Bebop, etc.
As for the Appleseed 2004 movie that some are mentioning... holy crap no. The animation style looks like a bad Japanese video game, and the story is disjointed and erratic.
