Autonomous Solutions' robot Chaos can traverse just about any kinds of terrain thanks to its unique "tracks" (that flail crazily when it goes about its business!). Hit play or go to Link [YouTube] - via SlashGear
It kind of looked like it was swimming on the land doing the breast stroke.
Also, I'm no physics major, but it seemed that in the part where the bot was moving the car the people standing on it helped move it forward by pushing their weight forward.
I'm always a little weary of product movies that are shown in multiple clips sewn together. They could easily stop the camera every time the creaturebotthingi gets stuck, or just cut those parts out. Its still pretty odd/neat though.
If you liked Mushishi, you might like Mononoke. It's apparently a spinoff from another series, but that's as best as I can say. Even so, without watching the original, Mononoke was fantastic.
On the topic of supernatural anime, Re-Kan and Rin-Ne are two humorous supernatural anime that seem pretty good so far, with only two episodes to go by.
There's so many new shows this season I won't list them all. I'm also watching "Is It Wrong..." and "Food Wars". Another new one is "Plastic Memories" but it's still a bit of a mystery where it's going (think Blade Runner meets moe). And I just HAVE to mention "Show By Rock!!". The first episode was a total blast, but it's admittedly probably got limited appeal. Lots of CGI, idols and stuff like that.
Honestly, I haven't been keeping up with anime since 2005. I've only watched one anime show in the last ten years (Attack on Titan). I looked at the shows you listed and it seems Aldnoah.Zero is a good watch. Kinda reminds me of Gundam Seed.
Speaking of which, reading your description of Food Wars, I am reminded of the anime Yakitate Japan and Cooking Master Boy. In fact, it seems food animes/manga must be over-the-top to get anyone to watch them.

I suppose they would have to be over-the-top, or else they would just be cooking shows. Although some people like to watch cooking shows for reasons that escape me.
I think you should try watching Berserk, most underrated anime I've watch and read (manga). Also take time to watch Nagi no Asakara, visually stunning anime. You could try looking at new animes, but most of them are moe-centered and lacks so much in depth. But I've been recently following Arslan Senki and Owari no Seraph.
