Not going to really include movies because I haven't watched enough. Just TV series and OAV's:

1) The Vision Of Escaflowne
2) RahXephon
3) The Legend of Galactic Heroes
4) Rurouni Kenshin: Trust And Betrayal
5) Great Teacher Onizuka
6) Black Lagoon (although I could care less for Roberta's Blood Trail)
7) Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
8) Baccano!
9) The Irresponsible Captain Tylor
10) Cross Game

Escaflowne number one and Rahxephon number 2? HA. Terrible list.

3-10 are pretty good though.
 
I had a hard time leaving shows like Irresponsible Captain Tylor and Bubblegum Crisis off my list. I just dont know where the fuck to put them all unless I make 3 way ties.

I had to really cut off some great shows to make my list. :( (Tylor made it, :coolface:)

edit: I also haven't finished Monster, which will probably find it's way into my top 10 unless it takes a crazy dive in terms of awesome. I wanted to add Rurouni Kenshin (the series) but I'd have to add the qualifier of "Only up until the end of the Kyoto arc", which doesn't seem valid. :(

Oh shit, how on God's green earth did I leave out Captain Tylor?

My list fails, must edit.

EDIT: Edited my above list because I'm not above revisionist history. >_<

I did that on my list. >_<

why? It works with Usagi Drop fantastic!

No, it doesn't :/
 
I'm going to regret this, but I like list threads so there you go...

1. Vision of Escaflowne (TV only)
2. Revolutionary Girl Utena (can I rank TV and film at the same time?)
3. Whisper of the Heart
4. Kaiba
5. Dennou Coil
6. Princess Tutu
7. Fantastic Children
8. Gankutsuou
9. Honey and Clover
10. Planetes

Hmmm. Arjuna has fallen off the list! I have succumbed to peer pressure.
 
This is my real list, it's a boring list.

Only telly shows and ovas because comparing telly shows and movies is like wrong:

  1. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann because it inspired me to fight the power
  2. Revolutionary Girl Utena because symbolism
  3. Cowboy Bebop because I need something in here to not look like a complete poser
  4. Top wo Nerae!/Gunbuster because I dunno it was fun dammit
  5. Neon Genesis Evangelion because I too once had the courage to be a depressed whiny bitch
  6. Toradora! because it gave me a case of the feels
  7. Princess Tutu because classical music
  8. Rurouni Kenshin: Seisouhen because it also gave me a case of the feels
  9. uuuuuh Mawaru-Penguindrum maybe?
  10. Shit I'm out of things I like I watch most anime for the irony okay?
All this list tells me is that I need to stop watching crappy anime and start watching good anime.
It hasn't devolved into people shitting on other people's lists yet so no!
I tried to make it that way but nobody took the bait!

My ratio of good anime to awful anime is pretty skewed. However due to the sheer amount of years I have watched the stuff, I have watched enough "good" anime to make a list. Maybe I should also make a top 30 "shit anime" list of shows I enjoy shamelessly.

Also, what show is this again?

3. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
4. Cowboy Bebop
5. Gurren Lagann
6. Spice and Wolf

Hmmm. Arjuna has fallen off the list! I have succumbed to peer pressure.

And yet, you still choose to identify yourself with an Arjuna avatar.

All you people like way too many high-falutin animus. Aside from the fact that I don't go in much for the whole list thing, aside from Escaflowne (TV) and Porco Rosso, I'd probably leave myself way, way too widely open for mockery...
 
Nisemonogatari 3

You know, it kinda sucks watching this show week-by-week as opposed to just marathoning it like Bake.

Nothing to say except Shaft being Shaft, dat Kanbaru, shit's about to get real, and Senjougahara is the best character.
 
Top anime list? :O. I can't possibly order them. Not going to add in movies or OVAs either.

1. Ouran High School Host
2. OverDrive
3. Legend of Galactic Heroes
4. Gankutsuou
5. Ookiku Furikabutte
6. Twelve Kingdoms
7. Code Geass
8. Paranoia Agent
9. Black Lagoon
10. Baccano!

Berserk and Revolutionary Girl Utena would take up 11 and 12, with Utena being one I've become more endeared to over time.
 
Oh! Edo Rocket 21:
Otokonoko time. The play was pretty funny, and I loved the hilariously stilted dialogue throughout the whole thing. They did a great job selling the whole thing. It reflected well on the series and managed to provide some good character moments for Seikichi and Sora, and I liked the contrast between the stilted play dialogue and Sora's ad lib that came straight from her heart. It was great stuff.
 
And now my Top 10 "Favorite" anime list

1) Detective Conan
2) The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (sans E8)/The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya
3) Cardcaptor Sakura
4) Marmalade Boy
5) Tenchi Muyo OVA series 1/Tenchi Universe/Tenchi Muyo in Love
6) The Irresponsible Captain Tylor
7) Full Metal Panic: Fummofu?!/Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid
8) Rurouni Kenshin TV 1-65 (anyone who says there was more after 65 is LYING! ;_;)
9) Princess Tutu
10) Slayers NEXT
You're all right with me.
 
Basket Army 1

Looks good, and Kenji did some cool music for it. Given the premise though, I don't see how I could get invested in this kind of story when the episodes are only going to be a few minutes long each.
 
You know what's pretentious? Claiming to be a moé conoisseur without having watched Card Captor Sakura. At least you are rectifying that!

I have enjoyed cute anime since I started following the stuff. Watching CCS or not really had no bearing on it, although it has certainly expanded my horizons of how much cute can be contained in a single series. As I said before though, this isnt the first time I have watched CCS. It is just the first itme I have watched it beyond the first couple of discs.

As far as I am concerned you cannot take a level on Advanced Hnnng unless you finish Card Captor Sakura and the second movie.
 
Toradora-Bake crossover. Hell, Taiga and Ryuuji already fit the silly naming scheme with no adjustment needed!

Don't mind me, just killing time

If it wasnt 70 episodes I would have finished it sooner. I dont generally watch ridiculously long anime. Just dont have the time for it. I am making an exception for CCS.
 
Nisemonogatari 3

Looks like that first OP was unfinished after all. Not sure how I feel about the color scheme, but it's kind of neat.

Anyway, this is my favorite episode to date. The plot kicks into action, the introduction of the new guy is appropriately ominous, and there's plenty of Senjougahara to satisfy me. It could have just been that the story stopped being aimless, but the direction felt less watered down than the previous two episodes. Very excited to see what happens next week.

Perhaps it was a 10 in terms of entertainment? If so, that seems pretty reasonable to me!
