Neon Genesis Evangelion 10/10
Oh boy .. the goat mental health anime. One of the best of all time. What looks like a mecha action show is actually a story about depression, escapism, anxiety, loneliness .. You feel with all the characters. It left me in absolute shambles. A must watch, and don't forget the conclusion movie End of Evangelion afterwards.
Cowboy Bebop 9/10
Another classic. And another really sad show. It's about dealing with your past, and everyone in here has their own battle with it. The characters are super iconic and the crew is really fun to watch, but be prepared for feels.
Michiko to Hatchin 8/10
The Brazil anime Ana doesn't like :-( It pales a bit in comparison to the other shows on this list but it's a fun ride. Seeing two woman with a difficult relationship go on a journey and getting to know each other. I liked it.
Samurai Champloo 10/10
The result when two Samurais that don't like each other get tricked by a woman and have to go on a trip with her. This show feels very much like a positive take on Bebop. It's all about friendship and growing together as a family. Super enjoyable, I loved it.
Black Lagoon 9/10
Action at it's best. A criminal city with mafia, cartels, outlaws and the Lagoon company right in the middle of it all. Revy is my girl. The show also has a pretty sad undertone, I feel some Bebop influence. Sadly the story is not finished yet, it has the potential to be 10 once we get more seasons and a true ending (hopefully soon).
Death Parade 8/10
Deniz suggestion. This surprised me, didn't expect it to be this deep. A show about death and judging our doings on earth. Last two episodes had me emotion. Wish it was longer but at the same time I understand why it isn't.
Akame ga Kill! 6/10
This show frustrates me lol. A action fantasy with a pretty straightforward plot. But many interesting and cool characters. Sadly the plot and writing doesn't do them justice, especially in the end it feels rushed and kinda falls apart. A longer runtime could've saved it.
Gurren Lagann 10/10
Making the impossible possible. Always believing in yourself. Finding a way out of every misery. Watch this show if you need motivation to keep going. So so good, absolutely loved it. Feels very much like an antithesis to NGE, and these are my two favs here as well. You gotta be ready for some ott action tho.
Kill la Kill 9/10
Speaking of ott. This right here is the definition of over the top. LMAO. By far the funniest one on the list. Man this plot, I need to know what the writer smoked when he came up with it, need some of that. You know when everyone strips naked before fighting and clothes start falling off that you are watching anime. Loved it. Also has the best music of the shows here.
Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai 5/10
I got tricked here. A highschool drama with mysterious stuff going on. Turns out it was booooring with rather unlikeable characters. Luckily it was short. The follow up movie (8th highest rated movie on MAL) made it worth pushing through the show tho, that one was a really good conclusion.
) and I also finished Ninninger with subtitles for the first time, I had seen the end before but only when I was going through a weird phase of watching without subtitles.
I sensed a hint at Elihal (a gay elven tailor from the game).
