5 Centimeters Per Second (movie) Masterpiece There are no words powerful enough to describe this movie.
Accel World (TV) Very good
Akira (movie) Very good
Aldnoah.Zero (TV) Good
Aldnoah.Zero (TV 2) Good
Angel Beats! (TV) Very good
Aquarion (TV) Decent
Aquatic Language (special) Good Quirky, for sure. I don't know if I could recommend it to everyone, but I enjoyed what this one presented. At just under 15 minutes, there's not much reason to not watch it.
Assassination Classroom (TV) Very good
Assassination Classroom (TV 2) Excellent
Attack on Titan (TV) Very good
Baccano! (TV) Excellent +
Bakemonogatari (TV) Masterpiece
BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad (TV) Excellent
Berserk (TV 1997) Very good It really is too bad that Berserk didn't get finished in Anime form, because I had a lot of fun watching it. Although it's incomplete, I still really enjoyed this one.
Bleach the Movie: Hell Verse (movie 4) Decent
Blood Lad (TV) Good
Blood+ (TV) Good
Blue Exorcist (TV) Very good
C – Control – The Money and Soul of Possibility (TV) Good
Castle in the Sky (movie) Excellent
A Certain Magical Index (TV) Good
Chobits (TV) Not really good
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion (TV) Excellent
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 (TV) Excellent
Cowboy Bebop (TV) Masterpiece
Cowboy Bebop: The Movie Excellent
Cromartie High School (TV) Good Don't let the rating fool you. Cromartie may bring absolutely nothing of value to history or art, but I laughed my ass off solidly through the entire thing. They're half episodes, so watch one or two here or there and you won't be disappointed.
D.Gray-man (TV) Good
Darker than Black (TV) Very good
Dead Leaves (OAV) Good
Death Note (TV) Excellent
Den-noh Coil (TV) Very good
Devil May Cry (TV) Good
(The) Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya (movie) Excellent
Durarara!! (TV) Very good
Eden of the East (TV) Excellent
Elfen Lied (TV) Very good
ERASED (TV) Excellent
Ergo Proxy (TV) Very good
Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone (movie) Excellent If Evangelion was good, this is even better. Take the amazing Anime that is Eva and update the graphical style while remastering all of the animation that has been kept for this retelling of the first 6 episodes of the series and you have a beautiful thing. I am on tender hooks waiting for the remaining 3 movies.
Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance (movie) Excellent
Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo (movie) Very good
Fate/Zero (TV) Decent
FLCL (OAV) Masterpiece FLCL is amazing because you can take it either at face value, or as something much more. On the surface FLCL is totally chaotic and fun, but once you look deeper you can find a rather moving story that isn't apparent at first glance.
Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma (TV) Excellent
Food Wars! The Second Plate (TV) Excellent
Fullmetal Alchemist (TV) Very good
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (TV) Excellent
Fullmetal Alchemist: The Movie - Conqueror of Shamballa Decent
Fullmetal Alchemist: The Sacred Star of Milos (movie) Very good
Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo (TV) Excellent
Gantz (TV) Good Gantz is ... Special. It's not a bad show, necessarily, though it is definitely on fast-forward compared to the manga, and only scratches the absolute surface of the content held there. I say special because while it might be a good show, it's DEFINITELY painful to watch a lot of the time. Extreme gore, the absolute shittiest people on the planet being absolutely shitty to each other, and uncomfortable topics abound. I'd still recommend this to certain people, but it's definitely not for everyone.
Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet (TV) Very good
Ghost in the Shell (movie) Excellent
Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (movie) Excellent
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (TV) Excellent
Gilgamesh (TV) Decent
(The) Girl Who Leapt Through Time (movie) Masterpiece Second only to 5 Centimeters Per Second. A definite must see.
Guilty Crown (TV) Very good
Gunslinger Girl (TV) Very good
Gurren Lagann (TV) Masterpiece
.hack//Legend of the Twilight (TV) Decent Disappointing to me, because .hack//SIGN was so good. I love the .hack universe, so I had to watch it, but this is really only one to watch if you either are addicted to Chibi art style, or can't get enough of the .hack setting.
.hack//Roots (TV) Good
.hack//SIGN (TV) Very good .hack//SIGN holds a special place in my heart because I am an avid MMORPG player. This series VERY slow moving, but if you can bring yourself to get over that fact, the characters are deep, the plot is good, and the ambiance of "The World" is stunning.
Hellsing (TV) Very good
Honey and Clover (TV) Masterpiece Honey and Clover is a romantic comedy with not so much love triangles as love polygons. The characters are perfectly believable, and you find yourself growing attached to them more and more as the series progresses.
Honey and Clover II (TV) Masterpiece The best anime.
Howl's Moving Castle (movie) Excellent
K-ON! (TV) Good
Kill la Kill (TV) Excellent
Kino's Journey (TV) Excellent Kino's Journey is an ambient wonder. It is beautiful and sad, both at the same time. I was depressed by the ending, simply because there was no more of it to see.
Library War (TV) Very good
Little Witch Academia (TV) Excellent
Martian Successor Nadesico (TV) Good
(The) Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (TV) Excellent
Metropolis (movie) Very good
Mobile Fighter G Gundam (TV) Good
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (TV) Very good
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Second Season (TV) Very good
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 the Movie: A Wakening of the Trailblazer Good
Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt (ONA) Good
Mobile Suit Gundam Wing (TV) Decent Gundam Wing was one of the first Anime series that I saw all the way through from beginning to end. I liked it at the time, but it pales in comparison to almost everything I've seen since.
Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz Special Edition (movie) Good
Mudazumo Naki Kaikaku (OAV) Very good
Mushi-Shi (TV) Masterpiece Mushi-Shi is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. With a completely nonlinear storyline where every episode could stand alone, Mushi-Shi is an ambient wonder with beautiful animation and sound design, as well as a setting that left me wishing I could somehow visit. A masterpiece without even having to think longer than it took me to click the button.
My Hero Academia (TV) Very good
Naruto Shippūden (movie) Decent
Naruto Shippūden the Movie: Bonds Good
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (movie) Excellent
Neon Genesis Evangelion (TV) Excellent Evangelion is a classic Anime that stands up for more reasons than its historical significance. Everyone should see Eva, basically no matter what. Good action, deep characters, and a story that will leave you with your jaw on the floor are all present here. A must-see Anime. Rated as Excellent rather than Masterpiece only due to the ending.
Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion (movie) Excellent
Ninja Scroll (movie) Decent
Nodame Cantabile (TV) Excellent
Noragami (TV) Very good
One Punch Man (TV) Excellent
Ouran High School Host Club (TV) Very good
Pale Cocoon (OAV) Very good
Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt (TV) Very good
Paranoia Agent (TV) Very good
Parasyte -the maxim- (TV) Decent
Perfect Blue (movie) Very good
Phi-Brain - Puzzle of God (TV) Good
(The) Place Promised in Our Early Days (movie) Excellent
Planetes (TV) Excellent
Princess Mononoke (movie) Masterpiece
Psycho-Pass (TV) Very good
Puella Magi Madoka Magica (TV) Excellent
Puni Puni Poemy (OAV) Very good
Rurouni Kenshin (TV 1996) Good
Samurai Champloo (TV) Excellent
Samurai Flamenco (TV) Very good
Sayonara Zetsubou-sensei (TV) Very good
Sengoku Basara - Samurai Kings (TV) Good Amazing animation, enough style to kill a horse (with handlebars), and awesome characters... but there's something missing. Can't put my finger on it, we'll see what happens with season 2.
Serial Experiments Lain (TV) Very good
Silver Spoon (TV) Excellent
Silver Spoon (TV 2) Excellent
(The) Sky Crawlers (movie) Good
Soul Eater (TV) Very good ... the ending... >>
Spirited Away (movie) Excellent
Star Driver (TV) Excellent Never has a more fabulous Anime existed. The Galactic Pretty Boy is my new top hero of all time.
Summer Wars (movie) Very good
(The) Tower of Druaga: The Aegis of Uruk (TV) Very good
(The) Tower of Druaga: the Sword of Uruk (TV) Very good
Valvrave the Liberator (TV) Very good
Voices of a Distant Star (OAV) Excellent
When They Cry - Higurashi (TV) Excellent Higurashi is... definitely not an easy watch. There's some pretty intense violence here, and also a lot of ridiculous cuteness. It's an odd mix, but really the story is something I wouldn't pass up. Gotta watch it all, but if you do, it's worth it!
When They Cry - Kai (TV) Very good
When They Cry - Rei (OAV) Very good
your name. (movie) Masterpiece
Yu-Gi-Oh! (TV 1/1998)
Yu-Gi-Oh! (TV 2/2000)

Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal (TV)
Yuri!!! on Ice (TV) Excellent
