Evangelion: 3.0+1.0: Thrice Upon A Time (movie) Decent Started strong in the first half with the village. But quickly descended into crazy madness and balls to the wall. cannot follow philosophical stuff. Overall, not really a good movie series as I just didn't get it.

Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works (TV) Excellent See second part, I rate as a whole.

Fate/Zero (TV 2) Very good good series explains alot

Fruits Basket (TV 1/2001) Masterpiece Straight from the manga, a true masterpiece. Only flaw is it doesn't finish the story, but what it covered was flawless.
Fruits Basket (TV 2/2019) Masterpiece Goes back and tells the whole story of the Manga, a bit darker and less comedic than the original, but fits for the overall tone and story told. (Bonus: Almost all english dub cast returns)

Green Green (TV) Awful watched out of sheer boredom, don't ever watch again.
Grimgar, Ashes and Illusions (TV) Masterpiece Awesome "game like" but not too much. Is strong and takes time to develop story and characters. This 12 episode run is more like an arc rather than a whole series. Wish there was more like the light novels, but what is here is awesome.
Guin Saga (TV) Good good until it took a wrong turn and Guin was pushed aside. Also it didn't end or it's ending was aweful, had good potential.
Gun Frontier (TV) Decent Was doing fantastic until it had a bullshit ending that of course didn't end or it boils down to, "we continue our journey" Bullshit. Yes, it is related to space pirate Harlock
Gungrave (TV) Very good very good and worth 2 watches
Gurren Lagann (TV) Very good Liked it until the death of a character, from there it went way out of praportion. All in all it wasn't bad and it was bookended to a degree that was nice.

Halo Legends (OAV) Good Cool stories of Halo lore, but different styles and not many with chief make if feel a bit dull.

Hero Tales (TV) Very good good, but ending was slow, good have been reved up more.

High School DxD BorN (TV) Good Boob show mainly, that would make it Decent, but was upped to good to do being able to still weave in some good writing otherwise.
High School DxD New (TV) Good See latest season. P.S. in next season two characters change Eng voice actor but grew accustomed to it quick, no change good or worse.

KONOSUBA - God's blessing on this wonderful world! 2 (TV) Good Ups it's game, some progress is made and the Heroes are not always epic losers. Just social losers.
KONOSUBA - God's Blessing on This Wonderful World– Legend of Crimson (movie) Decent Starts of bad right away by backtracking and putting heroes back in debt (stupid and lame). Enemy pulls a FF/Resident Evil which is super stupid/lame. Ending missed the mark soo much.
KonoSuba – God’s blessing on this wonderful world!! (TV) Good Like playing D&D with the most powerful, yet brainless party.
Last Exile (TV) Excellent My first anime, very well done.
(The) Legend of the Legendary Heroes (TV) Decent Was unfinished, could've been better if it continued or ended in a more proper place.
Log Horizon (TV) Masterpiece SAOx10

Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions! -Heart Throb- (TV) Masterpiece Continues the story and helps improve the relationship
Love, Chunibyo and Other Delusions! Take On Me (movie) Masterpiece Like a buch of episodes strung together, nice closer with them finally kissing, but for me leaves some things in the air and 'unrealistic'.
Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro (movie) Very good funny and good
Maburaho (TV) Weak waste of time
Macross Plus (OAV) Good With no prior Macross knowledge, Somewhat hard to follow and a little short. Checked out for Bryan Cranston dubbing a main character.
Magi: Adventure of Sinbad (TV) Excellent good story about how Sinbad and his 8 generals came to be, but is not fully done, hopefully there will be more.
Magi: The Kingdom of Magic (TV) Very good wasn't bad, but didn't end on a resolved note for the anime, the manga is still going. Want Alibaba and Morgiana to get together

Mary and The Witch's Flower (movie) Excellent First non Studio Ghibli movie with their style, good story and gives hope for future films.
(The) Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (TV) Excellent cool show about a girl that can make anything happen she wants need to watch in order as I did and it was good.

Mirai (movie) Good about family, but can get annoying with the yelling child. won't watch again.
Mirai Nikki Redial (OAV) Very good Nice to explain the ending to the Future diary still left wanting something else though.
Monster Musume: Everyday Life with Monster Girls (TV) Bad Dumb Harem anime just changing the girls into monster girls. Good potential with the world, but the idea is squandered on cliche romance antics. Oh and the main character is a zombie no way he can survive everything he went through.
Moribito - Guardian of the Spirit (TV) Masterpiece Of Twelve novels this adapts only the first, but has excellent animation, characters, story, and end on a high note in which it could stop there. was fun to watch.
Mushi-Shi (TV) Good individual plots per episode about spirit plants
My Neighbor Totoro (movie) Very good children story, but nice for adults too
My-HiME (TV) So-so worth a one time
Nadia - The Secret of Blue Water (TV) Not really good Watched the 30th anniversary cut. Too old for me and a little to science fiction for what I expected and how it started. (but not a totally bad anime).
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (movie) Excellent very good
Ni no Kuni (movie) Excellent Nice movie, takes place at least after the first game. Nothing too cool, but it's short and sweet.
Noragami (TV) Excellent See "Noragami Aragoto"
Noragami (OAV) Not really good OAV 1. Takes place after first before second, just fun side stories don't have to watch. 2nd takes place after first half arc of second season.
Noragami Aragoto (TV) Excellent Cool story about gods and men. Missed a rating due to it being a little open ended, but may not be over yet. Overall, watch it.
One Punch Man (TV) Excellent Cool anime doing a superhero angle and focuses on things from a new light. Purpose, backstories etc.
One Punch Man (TV 2) Not really good Loses too much steam, Can't stand the Main hero not being recognized and mostly being out of the fights 99%. If there focus was on someone else (like Genos) maybe it could work.
One Punch Man: Road to Hero (OAV) Good Prequel about how Saitama got his hero outfit.
Only Yesterday (movie) Very good Excellent slice of life about one's past and how it doesn't define us, but can help shape us.
Ouran High School Host Club (TV) Good meh
Outlaw Star (TV) Good So worth a one time if not two.
Persona 4: The Animation (TV) Excellent (dub & sub) good adapation from the game and very enjoyable, added episode 26 needs some explaining but all in all was a very good show.
Phantasy Star Online 2: The Animation (TV) Very good Cool take on a video-game anime. Made me want to play Phantasy Star again.
(The) Piano Forest (movie) Excellent About music and piano players, similar to 'Your lie in April' but leaves out a love plot and is more about music.
Please Teacher! (TV) So-so meh

Psycho-Pass (movie) Very good Nice squeal to 2. Brought Kogami back and is about the Sibil System expanding beyond Japan.
Psycho-Pass 2 (TV) Very good Nice squeal, but different without Kogami. Original was better.
Record of Lodoss War (OAV) Good 9-13 are a lose adaptation of the arc they cover. But overall still a nice time and good story. (1 takes place between 5 and 6, only ep out of order)
Record of Lodoss War: Chronicles of the Heroic Knight (TV) Good Watch 1-8 of original oav first, makes much more sense know as to where this one starts, than skips to. could have been better if it was not old anime style
Rent-A-Girlfriend (TV) Good Binged 1-3 see 3 for comment.
Rent-A-Girlfriend (TV 2) Good Binged 1-3 see 3 for comment.
Rent-A-Girlfriend (TV 3) Good (Anime not finished). Not bad, nice concept and characters, but backsteps on some great points to explore a new dynamic in favor of the rom-com/harem tropes. Still new enough and feels like character development that is fresh from others. Hope the rest plays out well.
Romeo × Juliet (TV) Excellent A beautiful adaptation of the classic tale. Written as an 'inspiration' to William Shakespeare as a character was named William, and a lot of elements were changed. Only downside was a last episode plot that was unnecessary and dragged the story down.
Rosario + Vampire (TV) Decent guy with girls, nuf said
Rosario + Vampire Capu2 (TV) Decent almost wrapped it up but botched the ending
Rune Soldier (TV) Good Same world as Lodos, but no other relavance, comedy focused. Wasn't that bad.
(The) Sacred Blacksmith (TV) Good good, but too short
Samurai 7 (TV) Excellent 1st viewing (years ago) like it, left me in shock at first, but is well written. 2nd (2022) The original film definitely elevates this story, Love it more now. Re-watched, Love it more, bumped up its rating. 1-16 covers the original film, 17-26 widens the scope of the plot. Bandit mechs are too big, needed to be toned down.
Samurai Champloo (TV) Good good untill ending the two guys should've died, then it would be very good.
Sands of Destruction (TV) Decent story didn't finish, but had some interesting parts and sentient animal characters
School Rumble (TV) Good Okay needed a better ending. as a whole
School Rumble Sangakki (OAV) Good meh
School Rumble: 2nd Semester (TV) Good meh
School Rumble: Extra Class (OAV) Good meh
Scrapped Princess (TV) Good so-so
(The) Secret World of Arrietty (movie) Excellent awesome world based on the browwers
Sekirei (TV) Decent boob show story gets sidetracked
Sekirei: Pure Engagement (TV) Not really good Same as Sekirei, not really worth it
(The) Seven Deadly Sins (TV) Excellent So far i like it but surprisingly has elements I usually mock about Dragonball.
(The) Seven Deadly Sins -Signs of Holy War- (TV) Excellent 4 episode fun, little movement of plot.
(The) Seven Deadly Sins the Movie: Prisoners of the Sky Good Not bad.
(The) Seven Deadly Sins: Imperial Wrath of The Gods (TV) Very good Things pick up again, and more is explained. While some are dumb, others are well written.
(The) Seven Deadly Sins: Revival of The Commandments (TV) Excellent Same as first, but less adventurous and mainly more action.
Shuffle! (TV) Good panty show, but guy actually choses a girl, overall not bad
A Silent Voice (movie) Masterpiece Awesome, about a def girl and a bully, but drastic character growth.
Sister Princess (TV) Weak waste of time
Sister Princess: Re Pure (TV) Weak waste of time
(The) Slayers (TV) Decent old anime, it's alright main focus is horrible
(The) Slayers Evolution-R (TV) Decent established title at ending, but still leaves relaitonships hanging out the window, when they clearly want to focus on them.
(The) Slayers Next (TV) Decent drags out
(The) Slayers Revolution (TV) Decent tries to be a comedy-ish doesn't work
(The) Slayers Try (TV) Decent could end here, but relationships are still left unspoken
Snow White with the Red Hair (TV) Masterpiece See TV 2
Snow White with the Red Hair (TV 2) Masterpiece Nothing to do with the classic Snow White. Awesome anime still regardless. Really showcases a fantasy kingdom without a world crisis or at war. There are two episodes near the end were a dub actor changes, but just for that one episode. No biggy.
Somali and the Forest Spirit (TV) Excellent Nice adventure between a pseudo father and daughter.
Soul Eater (TV) So-so dissapointment, totally veers from what is established as first focus
Spice and Wolf (TV) Excellent awesome merchant show watch Wolf and the Amber-colored Melancholy (OAV) before season 2
Spice and Wolf II (TV) Excellent awesome merchant show, but left unfinished (both cover 1-5 of light novels)
Spirited Away (movie) Excellent good and good
Star Ocean EX (TV) Excellent Retro adventure. Supposed to be a CD drama that 'finishes the story', but it ends on a well enough note with most things wrapped up and rest easily filled with personal head cannon.
Steamboy (movie) Very good a world of steam inventions but not over the top steampunk
Steins;Gate (TV) Masterpiece Awesome story, cool characters and side characters get their moments.
Steins;Gate: The Movie - Load Region of Déjà Vu Very good Okay, nice epilogue.
Stellvia (TV) Good decent sci-fi
Summer Wars (movie) Very good Japanese Ready Player One, but less action oriented.
Sword Art Online (TV) Very good cool world and concept but side characters get pushed aside and main character is too god-like. Plus they try and have an underlining harem theme even after he picks a girl and marries her.
Sword Art Online Alternative: Gun Gale Online (TV) Excellent Spin off of SAO II in the Gun Gale world. Awesome short story and characters were well done. (No main stream characters make an appearance).
Sword Art Online II (TV) Decent To much rehash of first season and main character still acts like a perfect op do-gooder and harem builder.
Sword Art Online the Movie: Ordinal Scale Decent Meh story but good for concepts of one's memories and some side characters get a little more character, but not enough.
Sword Art Online: Alicization (TV) Decent Main character becomes too op and is boring. Nice side character, but overall it was dumb.
Sword Art Online: Alicization - War of Underworld (TV) Weak So far pretty cool, other characters are getting time. Kirito is a vegetable and not op, but even still he gets a harem scene. Main complaint is Eugeo is gone. They finally had a good male to balance Kirito and they killed him. (F***)!
Sword Art Online: Alicization - War of Underworld Part 2 (TV) Weak Finally realized I continue to watch SAO to rip on it. Kirito is back as a GOD (pretty much), F*** him.
Sword Oratoria: Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? On the Side (TV) Very good Side story with the Loki Familia as the main protagonists, (Covers season 1 from their perspective).
(The) Tale of the Princess Kaguya (movie) Not really good It was okay, put did not grab attention at all, and it's message was delivered poorly.
Tales from Earthsea (movie) Good NEED TO WATCH AGAIN
Tales of Phantasia (OAV) Good Short but fun, apparently Symphonia is a prequel to this series lots of reused names and things. But anime was way too short.
Tales of Symphonia the Animation (OAV) Very good cuts video game short but is a nice retelling in the style the game left me hoping for, (go Kratos)
Tales of Symphonia the Animation: Tethe'alla Episode (OAV) Very good more is cut, but nice animation and retelling
Tales of Symphonia the Animation: The United World Episode (OAV) Very good All is taken care of and a familer ending, satisfies the animation i desired from the game, but the game has so much more detail and filled holes, both are worth it.
Tales of the Abyss (TV) Excellent very good adaptation, the best Tales anime as of yet. It took time for its story and characters and did well with its action.
Tales of Zestiria the X (TV) Excellent Adaptation of the game, episodes 5 and 6 are from a prequel Tales of Berseria.
Tales of Zestiria the X (TV 2) Excellent Ends the story, but felt rushed, wished there was more, but overall was a fun watch.
Tears to Tiara (TV) Very good hidden retelling of King Arthur.
Tiger & Bunny (TV) Masterpiece Superheroes as a Job. Very well done. Some lose ends, but just things i like to wrap up neatly, no research needed or questions unanswered.
Tiger & Bunny 2 (TV) Masterpiece Split into two "half seasons" for plot, excellent continuation of the first. Can end here again which is very nice. Don't know if they are making more, but Still love it. If you like the first season defiantly give this a watch.
Tiger & Bunny The Movie -The Rising- Masterpiece Nice follow up and keeps the characters developing sort of.
(The) Tower of Druaga: The Aegis of Uruk (TV) Excellent Very good, see sequel (watch special between episode one and two)[ep. 1-special-2]
(The) Tower of Druaga: the Sword of Uruk (TV) Excellent Almost masterpiece. The ending however, was just off a bit. Just a bit, speculation leaves me satisfied. [openings to both shows don't make a lick of sense]
Trigun (TV) Very good western-ish show ends on a low note, but first time i love the protagonist actually more than a 2ndairy character.
Trigun: Badlands Rumble (movie) Very good Good side story. Worth seeing for the extra action and good animation.
Trinity Blood (TV) Very good good but ends on a low note.
(The) Twelve Kingdoms (TV) Excellent 1st viewing: pretty good, but there are dips and strange stories 2nd viewing: Watched all and went up in rating now that I understand some concepts better. Just watch 1st and 3rd arc, 2nd and 4th not needed upon viewing again. https://12kingdoms.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_Guide
Typhoon Noruda (movie) Good a short film not bad, but nothing ground breaking
Utawarerumono (TV) Very good Had Exponential potential, but a few elements here and there dragged it down with a bit of confusion, and not very satisfactory. (still very good).
Vampire Knight (TV) Good See Vampire Knight Guilty
Vampire Knight Guilty (TV) Good Good show about vampires, but lost a lot of momentum at the end.
(The) Vision of Escaflowne (TV) Decent not worth it.
Vivy -Fluorite Eye's Song- (TV) Very good about A.I. and singing. we'll put together. Ending is a little ambigious, but nothing bad.
When Marnie Was There (movie) Excellent psychological drama with a fun mystery and puzzle. but doesn't ask the audience to fill in the gaps.
A Whisker Away (movie) Masterpiece If i didn't know better I'd say it's a Ghibli film. Normal world with One fantastic element and color characters and story.
Whisper of the Heart (movie) Very good need to watch again, a love story
Wicked City (movie) Not really good Old anime on Retro Crush
Wild Arms - Twilight Venom (TV) Bad few comidic parts, especially the nut sword
(The) Wind Rises (movie) Excellent Very good, about a WWII Japanese plane designer
Wolf and the Amber-colored Melancholy (OAV) Excellent nice side story between seasons
Wolf's Rain (TV) So-so different story. Up till the end it was going somewhere, then it stops and leaves you thinking. It's an ending that you have to interpret for yourself.
Wolf's Rain (OAV) So-so See Wolf's Rain (OAV is just last four episodes) http://www.animeyume.com/wolfs_rain/wrending.html
X (TV) Awful Don't watch, not worth it
Your Lie in April (TV) Excellent Music and love, a piano player and a violinist play a lot of music.
your name. (movie) Masterpiece Not much to say without spoiling, but a great movie like most anime.
Yu-Gi-Oh! (TV 2/2000) Very good Suffers immensely from flashback/reused footage at the start of season 2. Season 5 was cool, and a fine ending. Rating is due to weather one enjoy's the card game or not.
Yu-Gi-Oh! 3D: Bonds Beyond Time (movie) Not really good first 3 main protagonists team duel one guy. Meh
Yu-Gi-Oh! Capsule Monsters (U.S. TV) Very good Between episodes 198-199. a cool short arc where all characters get some use including Tea, Solomn, and Tristan. But also minimizes flashbacks, and especially reused footage for flashbacks. Worth adding to the original show.
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (TV) Decent Okay, about a school for duel monsters, but slowly becomes dumb and strays from good.
Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions (movie 2016) Good Bad guy bullshits rules worse than season 1. [Kind of a lame add on to the original series.] but doesn't skew any details really. [real bs is how Kaiba can do anything with tech]
Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Movie (U.S. movie 2/2004) Good Between ep 144-145 of Yu-Gi-Oh! (2000). Just another duel between Seto Kaiba and Pharaoh.
