Best of The Best

Anime
This list is a dedication to (in my personal opinion) some of the most incredible, talented, and best shows that I have ever watched. Whether it would be mystery, harem, isekai, or action, this list covers multiple genres. I hope this list finds you a anime that will become your next favorite!
Black Lagoon
TV, 2006, 12 eps Me:- Author:10
Easily one of my top or first favorite anime. The adventure you embark by watching this show will NOT leave you disappointed. Interesting characters, interesting story, interesting plot... I can honestly talk about this anime all day! To put it simply, Black Lagoon is a tale of a bored Japanese business man who decides to join a group of mercenary pirates within the southeast/west of Asia. From doing raids, to smuggling goods, assassinating, the Black Lagoon company does it all, and does it well.
Clannad
TV, 2007, 23 eps Me:- Author:9
You probably heard of this anime before from a friend or a youtuber. Believe me when I say this, this is an absolute necessity to watch. The beginning of this show is terribly slow and has a terrible plot, its whats next that matters. For that sole reason alone, this show gets a 10/10 without a doubt if you are able to push through this first season and make it to the ending of season one or make it to season 2 "Clannad: After Story." I absolutely guarantee you will end up with tears by the end of it. The ammount of build up from watching the first season is really, really well done.
Clannad: After Story
TV, 2008, 24 eps Me:- Author:10
Amazing.
Durarara!!
TV, 2010, 24 eps Me:- Author:10
Beautiful music, incredibly well made characters, and an enjoyable mysterious story. If you mush those all together perfectly, you make what you call a well done dish.
Tokyo Revengers
TV, 2021, 24 eps Me:- Author:9
Do you like action? Do you like 14-18 year old high schoolers looking like 30-50 year old men tatted up and like to beat the living sh*t out of people? Well, give this show a go because not only would you find yourself watching awesome fight scenes but also surprisingly well built characters.
Golden Time
TV, 2013, 24 eps Me:- Author:9
I have never seen an anime which is like this one, it's incredibly unique. The common saying of "emotional damage", is truly a understatement to what the main protagonists in this story go through. Also, this could be a "me" thing, but there is something so atmospheric about this anime that I cannot describe.
Shingetsutan Tsukihime
TV, 2003, 12 eps Me:- Author:7
Great anime. Just like the anime called "Lain," this show really has that "lost media" feel from back in the early 2000's. The story has it's issues, but overall was quite enjoyable to watch. The characters themselves are decently built.
Jin-Rou
Movie, 2000, 1 ep Me:- Author:9
Wolfenstein German soldiers in anime? YES

Disney style animation with a decent story. Not the best of stories but definitely not the worst.
Steins;Gate
TV, 2011, 24 eps Me:- Author:10
I personally cannot describe how great this show is. Just look at that rating... it should say enough.
Steins;Gate 0
TV, 2018, 23 eps Me:- Author:8
Not as great as the first season and this derives from it by taking a different ending, but my god.... It's almost as good as season one.
Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu
TV, 2021, 11 eps Me:- Author:9
The isekai which dethroned Sword Art Online and became the king of isekai. I will legit ***** myself if you don't watch this show, it is really enjoyable to watch. Easily one of the best Isekai ever
Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2
TV, 2021, 12 eps Me:- Author:9
Sequel to the King of Isekai which takes the 1st season and improves on it in almost every way possible.

I believe this is the First anime I have ever watched, and I am proud of it. Best soundtrack I ever heard in an anime, easily rivaling the "Your Lie in April" soundtrack. ALthough that it has an interesting story and characters, you will be let down by bad world building and several rushed parts. Even with this in mind, I'll still give it a go but to be honest, this could just be my nostalgic self typing here.
Nejimaki Seirei Senki: Tenkyou no Alderamin
TV, 2016, 13 eps Me:- Author:8
Underrated anime. Beautiful animation, great story, and simple but well made characters. Not much to say, you just have to watch the anime to understand my meaning.
Densetsu no Yuusha no Densetsu
TV, 2010, 24 eps Me:- Author:8
Give it a go for a couple of episodes and see how you like this show. At first I Dropped this show multiple times due to it's slow pacing in the start, but while in the middle of a anime drought during 2020, I decided to give this show another go and made it five episodes in. Turns out, that I like it... I really like it... Especially once things started to get interesting and learned the backgrounds of all the characters. After that, the show was amazing. The one and only issue I had with this anime is because-----

of the rushed ending that left the show on a heavy cliffhanger.
Girls & Panzer
TV, 2012, 12 eps Me:- Author:8
Are you like me? A military vehicle nerd who is not only obsessed with military ships, aircraft, but also tanks? Well, this anime alone is what brought tank nerds/historians/weebs together. This show is filled with references to past world events, wars, world leaders, and of course the "main dish" itself, the fuc*king tanks. There is absolutely nothing like this anime.
Full Metal Panic!
TV, 2002, 24 eps Me:- Author:8
Really, really, really well made story with great characters and awesome mech fights. This anime is such a great Mix between Tsunarde/Comedy/Mecha/Military genres. It does this mix so well and if you were to continue past the first season, you will love this show as much as myself.
Quanzhi Gaoshou
ONA, 2017, 12 eps Me:- Author:8
All I gotta say is... You don't see anime like this everyday. Most chinese anime don't attract anyone or are simply dogsh*t. But when it comes to this anime, give it a go. You might like it as much as I do since it has a unique taste on its story and setting.
Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!
TV, 2016, 10 eps Me:- Author:8
Comedy/Isekai done like no other, this show is the best.
Sentouin, Hakenshimasu!
TV, 2021, 12 eps Me:- Author:9
Hilarious underated anime, this is an anime similar to Konosuba.
Kyuukyoku Shinka shita Full Dive RPG ga Genjitsu yori mo Kusoge Dattara
TV, 2021, 12 eps Me:- Author:8
Absolutely UNDERRATED show! If you ever watched Konosuba, this is another show that is basically on par with it
Koe no Katachi
Movie, 2016, 1 ep Me:- Author:9
I could just be a weak piece of sh*t, but emotions run wild when watching this show. This is Truly a really good anime movie
Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu
TV, 2016, 25 eps Me:- Author:10
Really good story/characters while also being fun to watch the main character get destroyed mentally throughout the entire series. Highly recommend.
Overlord
TV, 2015, 13 eps Me:- Author:9
A show like no other, enjoyable to watch from start to finish.

Not only that, but I have to mention that the Light Novel front and back cover art is really badas*.
Sword Art Online
TV, 2012, 25 eps Me:- Author:8
Admit it motherfu**er, as bad as this anime is in certain areas of the show, this anime pioneered a new anime generation for us degenerates, truly a best anime generation to be living in. Watch this show with respect.
One Punch Man
TV, 2015, 12 eps Me:- Author:8
Action anime may not be for everyone, but this show is really good. The first episode should give you a glimpse of the tone of this anime series very well.
Shingeki no Kyojin
TV, 2013, 25 eps Me:- Author:9
You know it and most likely love it.
Toradora!
TV, 2008, 25 eps Me:- Author:8
One of the top king's of the harem genre.
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners
ONA, 2022, 10 eps Me:- Author:8
Even though this Anime is a prequel to the video game, I recommend playing Cyberpunk 2077 first to deeply immersive yourself into this Dystopian world. It is extremely deep and well made when it comes to Lore/Story. The anime itself really opens the doors and shows how deep the world is, but not as much in the game in my opinion. Besides world building, the story itself is really good, most of the characters are built OK when it comes to their personality and design, and the animation is top notch as expected from studio Trigger.
Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute!
TV, 2022, 20 eps Me:- Author:8
An anime which takes cringy ideas and does it right. The best of it's type.
Kanojo, Okarishimasu

Hello my fellow degens. I honestly have no idea why I like this show. But if you are looking for a comedy/harem type of situation, this is the best it might ever get

Lil bro is off the perc...

Wholesome story and enjoyable to watch to the very end.
Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch
TV, 2006, 25 eps Me:- Author:8
You heard of it and most likely watched it. Although, nothing is stopping you from watching it again and again and again from watching this absolute masterpiece

TV, 2014, 12 eps Me:- Author:8
A truly unique art style like no other. Vibrant and colorful. Not only is the art style good, but this show has a good story/good characters to go along with it. Only problem though is... HEAVY SPOILER BELLOW

Sekai Saikou no Ansatsusha, Isekai Kizoku ni Tensei suru
TV, 2021, 12 eps Me:- Author:8
Unique story and characters. This show isn't really as good as the rest of the isekai shows in this interest stack, but was really attracting and enjoyable to watch.
Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei
TV, 2014, 26 eps Me:- Author:8
If you like the main protagonist trying to hide their true power only to reveal it as some point by accident or on purpose, this anime is for you as I'll say that its the best of it's type
Tonikaku Kawaii
TV, 2020, 12 eps Me:- Author:8
Wholesome/comedy mix. This show overall is a great show to watch while being bored ASF or just want to watch something late a night. Highly recommend.
IS: Infinite Stratos
TV, 2011, 12 eps Me:- Author:7
Typical harem anime but with a twist that makes this anime fairly interesting. Each harem waifu has a nationality/personality from other nations around the world and this anime has an .O.K. story.
Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri
TV, 2015, 12 eps Me:- Author:7
Trash story and no good characters to be seen. Only reason why I have this on this listing is because there are no animes like it. The plot is Literally the JGSDF and JASDF absolutely obliterating medieval armies, for like no reason at all.
Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi
TV, 2021, 12 eps Me:- Author:7
Ah yes... There is not a SINGLE other anime similar to this one... A very... questionable anime... Say what you want dammit, but I like it. I suggest giving it a go, the 1st episode should really tell you what this anime is gonna be like from start to finish.
Vinland Saga
TV, 2019, 24 eps Me:- Author:10
Character/story development is A++++, possibly even better or on par with Black Lagoon or Attack On Titan. This is an anime you don't see everyday. Highly, highly, recommend giving it a go.
Kekkai Sensen
TV, 2015, 12 eps Me:- Author:7
Another one of those Human with monster powers hunts down actual monsters stories. Most characters in the first season are meh, but are still good.

I also cannot forget to mention that this anime has a really well made depressing New York City atmosphere
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
TV, 2006, 26 eps Me:- Author:8
This show is amazing. Just like a show called Clannad, the build up to a second season is what matters.
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai
TV, 2007, 24 eps Me:- Author:8
Amazing
Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha
TV, 2007, 25 eps Me:- Author:8
Chinese batman, while also being 10x cooler
Chainsaw Man
TV, 2022, 12 eps Me:- Author:9
Similar to games and anime like Library of Runia and Cyberpunk, This show takes the (Sort of) Dystopian/Fixer/Gore/Human turned-Monster fight actual Monster genres and mushes them together with crazy interesting characters and plot. No anime is like this one, and it will probably remain the best of its kind.
Genshiken
TV, 2004, 12 eps Me:- Author:9
A very slow, wholesome, comedic, and grounded anime. Nothing ridiculous to find in this anime. It's out of place self-ostracized geeks, nerds, and weebs in a collage club together.
"Oshi no Ko"
