blackmoondrops apiyo Your ideas in anime aren't terrible. You really need to work on your anatomy, preferrably from life. It'd be nice to take a life drawing class. If you can't a site called posemaniacs.com is almost as good. And for other refrences you can use photos of real people, which is the least good option. Actually I am currently enrolled in a life drawing class, and instead of helping my original anime style it created and improved ONLY my realistic style. Maybe I should post some of my in-class work so you guys can see what I mean...
Coolio, your so lucky to get to take life drawing class. Just apply what you learn about real people to anime-style. Out of curiosity, what is it that you don't get in anime that isn't an issue with realism?

What a conundrum. ._____.;;;
I feel that since you are grasping anatomy in realism, mayhaps you just haven't seen enough semi-realism-anime style to put it to good use. Orrr, this is more plausible, your elements are working together cohesively.
If it's the first, that's easily fixed. C: My fave semi-realism-anime artists are: kheleksul, ippus, pridgybombay(highly stylized), and mou-s.
For the second, I find that in your lifelike anime picture, there are many elements of realism that clash majorly with the elements of anime. The nose just stands out because generally in anime, you don't the nostril, and if you do, it's maybe a dot-ish thing. Also, with hands, I've noticed that you basically keep them to one long finger-y thing instead of making them bend in your anime pictures. (I'm talking about "I like weird positions".) Although anime is simplified, the hands still have appendages. Sometimes two, sometimes three. (I'd go with three for a semi-realistic look.) Your eyes are disconnected because they really aren't looking the same way! (Ahh!) The right eye is practically horizontal while the left eye tilts up to the left, making them unbalanced.
I can nitpick some more, but I think you get it. Just observe manga and anime styles that you like some more. Or try looking at art by semi-realism-anime artists that you like.
ALSO! Try drawing with a reference. I figure you have had references all through art classes so maybe you can't draw poses from your head just yet.
If you want a quick drawover, just ask. ;D Hope this helps!
PS - Your "I like weird positions" drawing shows very good use of anatomy, so I think you've got it covered.

Haha, thank you so much for your in depth study of my work. I shall try both of the things you suggested. biggrin
