-Gurren Laggan -Trigun -Code Geass -FMA -Tanya the Evil

For FMA, start with the original, because they spend more time during the opening chapters, and switch to Brotherhood at the exact scene when they vault the labratories fence.

In no particular order, I think…

• Cowboy Bebop
• FLCL
• Neon Genesis Evangelion
• Paranoia Agent
• Samurai Champloo

I don’t watch much anime, but from the shows I have watched I view fondly and can see myself rewatching:

• Dragon Ball
• Detective Conan
• Neon Genesis Evangelion

1. Space Battleship Yamoto 2199
2. Frieren
3. I Parry Everything
4. Campfire Cooking in Another World
5. Ashita no Joe

I think I’ve got some unconventional choices there but if you’re looking for something new I would recommend any of the above. Space Battleship Yamoto 2199 in particular is spectacular.

Recency bias go!

1. Konosuba
2. Dragon Ball Super (the ToP is the best arc, fight me nerds)
3. JoJo
4. Solo Leveling (the only series that made me go out and buy the Manga to see what happens next)
5. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

• Ruroni Kenshin
• Trigun
• DBZ (grew up on it)
• Outlaw Star
• Cowboy Bebop

• Konosuba
• Serial Experiments Lain
• Haibane Renmei
• Slayers
• Samurai Champloo

In no particular order

• Frieren
• Natsume’s Book of Friend
• Tanaka-kun is always listless
• Hunter x Hunter (2011)
• Seitokai Yakuindomo

And if the rest of the season is as good as the pilot episode, Journal with Witch. I’ve been waiting for the episode to comes out so I can hear what Asa was singing before the Bieber joke. It was delightful.

Eh, I’ll throw Sword of the Demon Hunter there aswell. I’m in my mid 30s so I don’t really care about battle scene as much, though I wish it got better animations. You could say the story is similar to Frieren, though not as tight.

Frieren

Girls’ last tour

Azumanga Daioh

Monthly Girls Nozaki-kun

Ouran high school host club

No particular order but the first two resonated with me albeit in different ways. The latter 3 just land really well in the humor department. There’s a heavy bit of nostalgia for Azumanga and Ouran specifically, and Ouran itself is definitely dated in a lot of ways. But a recent rewatching of Ouran cemented my enjoyment of it even today, along with making me realize that I just really like melodrama.

• Initial D

• Kaguya-Sama: Love is War

• Cowboy Bebop

• Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure

• Neon Genesis Evangelion

DanDaDan Demon Slayer One Piece Black Clover Inuyasha

1. Legend of the Galactic Heroes (the old one)
2. Steins;Gate (don’t fuck with time travel)
3. Spice & Wolf (old and new alike)
4. Fullmetal Alchemist (old one, has the better ending, feels like a Twilight Zone finale)
5. KonoSuba (extremely funny)

Honourable mention: Kemono Friends (a show based on a bad mobile game, kids oriented, does not deserve to be that good, but it is)

Disclaimer: I’ve only watched like 10-20 so I can’t exactly say it’s the best of all animes

1. Steins Gate

2. Spy x Family

3. Death Note

4. Code Geass

I don’t think I really watch enough to fill out all “top 5”

Honorable mentions:

• The Promised Neverland (S1 ONLY)
• Detective Conan - Was nostalgic for me, I remember watching it in the Mandarin dub, I loved to like pretend to be a detective as a kid, now its kinda… eh
• Re Zero: Great premise… then story got boring and the special ability of the MC gets used less, and the story became much less fun… don’t think I even cared to finish s3

I get very picky about watching stuff, so if the premise reads slightly boring, I don’t watch it. Which is precisely why I only have about a dozen or so Animes watched.

• 1: Steins;Gate
• 2: Steins;Gate 0
• 3: Cyberpunk Edgerunners
• 4: Initial D
• 5: Dimension W

I pretty much never rewatch anything but I’ve rewatched steins gate and steins gate 0 about 3 or 4 times because it’s such a good show and they tie in so well despite being in alternate realities to each other. Edgerunners was what got me into cyberpunk and now I’m obsessed with it. Initial D is what got me into car culture, it’s a bit dated and I’ve never rewatched it but eurobeat paired with 90s JDM cars battling down a mountain is amazing. Dimension W is a good story but the only reason I chose it over something like Dr Stone or Rising of the Shield Hero is because I really like the 2000GT that the main character drives.—

In this thread, people reveal their high school graduation year.

Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Gundam Wing, Dragon Ball Z, Ghost in the Shell.

Any guesses?
