Top Ten Favorite anime

[Ryoji]

I'll take that bet ; ). But yes! I need suggestions. As you can see from my list, I'm a big fan of slice-of-life sorts of anime. I'm willing to try anything, tho : ).

Edit: I have a crunchyroll subscription, if it helps, but have also learned a few other places to find anime. Suggestions of this nature are still welcome, tho, since people have different preferences on where to obtain "the goods"

Hmm slice of life:

Bamboo Blade

Azumanga Daioh

Aria - The Natural

Lucky Star

Ichigo Mashimaro

Kamichu!

Heres a list to start with. I own all of these and are some of my Favorite Slice of Life anime.

Oh, check your inbox Tay, sent you a message

[Tay]

Wow, thank you very much! I'm really looking forward to it!

[eclipsezero]

Not in any particular order:

1. Kara no Kyoukai

2. Fate/Zero

3. Steins;Gate

4. Mawaru Penguindrum

5. Akira(Though the manga is better)

6. Baccano! (JAZZ)

7. Durarara!! (Izaya and Shizuo, that is all)

8. Bakemonogatari/Nisemonogatari

9. Katanagatari

10. Jormungand (HER NAME IS KOKO SHE IS LOCO I SAID OH NO)

11. Summer Wars

12. The World God Only Knows

13. Level E (Seriously underrated, had me laughing till I felt that I would drop dead if I laughed anymore >>; )

14. The entirety of Evangelion

15. Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji (Many people are put off due to it seeming yaoi-ish, but I still absolutely love this series. Manga is excellent as well.)

16. Carnival Phantasm (Which Type-Moon fan doesn't have this in their lists?!)

Sorry, had to go above the 10 limit >3>;

Honorable mentions:

Code Geass (Despite the humongous amounts of plot holes, fanservice and at times stupidity, its still a very VERY enjoyable show, which is what matters in the end!)

Sword Art Online (I have a soft spot for anything virtual reality related. Plus Yuki Kajiura makes everything a thousand times better.)

Canaan (Not as good as other Type-Moon works, still fun)

Accel World

Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood (One of the better shounen series out there)

Dance in the Vampire Bund (Prefer the manga, anime still cool)

Nice list eclipse. I could of probably went 1-250 if i wanted, so i know what you mean. Im probably the only person who doesnt have Sword Art Online on their list. The anime is not even finished. Id have to see completed anime to give final verdict. HOWEVER, i will agree about Yuki Kajirua, she is amazing!!.

[Eldin]

10: Gundam (Any)

09: Black Lagoon

08: Samurai 7

07: Katanagatari

06: Yondemasu Yo, Azazel-San

05: Tytania

04: Desert Punk

03: Ergo Proxy

02: Innocent Venus

01: Outlaw Star

Special Mentions That Would Be On This List If 1-10 Had More Numbers:

Girls Bravo!

Shadow Skill

The Mars Daybreak

Working!!

Maria Holic

Alternatively, The Worst Anime Ever (imo):

Akikan

It's an anime about drink cans that turn into girls that fight each other to prove which kind of can is the greatest. the animation is terrible, the voice acting is terrible, the character roles feel forced, the list of issues i have with it go on and on. I've watched bad anime before just for the luls. i can't even watch this one for the purpose of making fun of it.

Akikan

[Ryoji]

I have this sitting in my wishlist ever since I read the hilarious synopsis. Really have to watch it one day.

Is it really even worse than Eiken or Alexander?

opinion are like as*hole* everyone has one. In other words watch it, dont let someone else's opinion sway you one way or another.

Watch it.

[BFlorry]

Chrono Cross, Sword Art Online & Accel World

Those three are the only ones I can get out of my head at the moment. Some have been good, but since I've lost my most faith in anime, I'll go with those. (SAO novel ftw! )

BFlorry, let me know what genre of Anime you like and I guarantee I can find something to restore your faith

Dont let recent crap deter you from Anime

10. Joshiraku/Neon Genesis Evangelion/Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica

9. Excel Saga

8. Maria+Holic

i won't tell you not to watch it, but yea. i thought it was considerably worse than both of those.

then again, i also hated evangelion and most people throw stones for it, so i guess my opinion isn't too valid.

[maburu]

1. Haibane Renmei

2. Shoujo Kakumei Utena

3. xxxHOLiC

4. GTO

5. Maria+Holic

6. Maria-sama ga Miteru

7. Mawaru Penguindrum

8. Clannad

9. Eve no Jikan

10. Pale Cocoon

[Daeyamati]

In no particular order because it was hard enough for me to put out a list x_x

1. Cardcaptor Skura
   
2. Fate/Zero (gorgeous ufotable animation and Gen Urobuchi writing!!)
   
3. Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun
   
4. Madoka Magica
   
5. TWGOK
   
6. Mirai Nikki
   

I'll leave it at that for now since those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head. I'm also waiting for other series to finish/come out (i.e. Diabolik Lovers, which was just green-lit for sometime this year!!) so I can see whether or it's worthy of being in my top 10.

[Colorfulight]

1. Clannad

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun was great up until the ending. Judging from the sales, I doubt we will get a season 2 also. So much disappointment in the ending. (Also Natsume is the best).

Sales weren't that bad though. Lots of good anime get much worse sales.

But like most 1-cour manga adaptation, it's just meant to promote the manga and get some sales off the manga popularity. Thus the ending, or rather the absence of ending.

[Ryoji]

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun was great up until the ending. Judging from the sales, I doubt we will get a season 2 also. So much disappointment in the ending. (Also Natsume is the best).

There is an OVA bundled with the 12th volume of the manga. No news on a new season though.

Ill keep an eye out for any news and let you guys know!

[Kotomi]

Top 10?

I dont think that is even possible. Ill try though'

1. Clannad
   
2. AnoHana
   
3. Spirited Away
   
4. Fruits Basket
   
5. Toradora
   
6. Lucky Star
   
7. Death Note
   
8. Angel Beats
   
9. Hanasaku Iroha
   
10. Chobits
    

Meh, I dont know if thats a top 10, its more of a list of Must See. I actually own them.

I would really want a season 2. There was just no conclusion whatsoever in the 1st season.. I think its manga would be ending very soon as well.. And I shall agree that Natsume is the best..

[mojavan]

Favourites:

1. Eureka Seven

2. Steins;Gate

3. Noein

4. Clannad After Story (much better than the first season)

5. Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari

6. Yosuga no Sora: In Solitude, Where We Are Least Alone.

7. Xam'd (somewhat lacking but amazingly beautiful imo)

Could go on here with stuff like Code Geass, Last Exile, Suzumiya etc, but none of these feel quite as good as the above ones imo...

Quite interesting to find that so many of you mentioned Fate/Zero - will definitely have to check that one out! Thanks alot for the tip.

Noein was really really good. I loved the way the animation style changed depending on what was going on, and it was just a cool show overall.
