Neon Genesis Evangelion is a little out of place on my top 5. Mainly because it's the highest-rated of my mech, and it's other four competitors are comedy, mahou shoujo, slice-of-life, etc.

Well, I'm a poly-genre watcher so my tops are diverse by default.

Spoiler for top list in spoiler tag:

I'd say that probably Kaleido Star is the main oddity in my top list. It has a strong hidden jewel status for me, but it's just probably isn't exactly an anime classic material. Still, there are only a handful of shows that I've enjoyed as much as I did watching Kaleido Star.

I'll throw my hat in with the people saying they watch most genres, so nothing is really "out of place."

Sure there are a handful of shows that fall under the "not sure why I enjoyed it so much" category, but none in my top favorites... then again knowing my personality, it wouldn't be on my favorites list in the first place if I didn't know specifically why I liked it.

BaKaBaKaOtaKu · 2011-05-23, 00:31

Mahou Shojo Madoka Magica
K-On!!
EVA
Cowboy Bebop
Macross Frontier
Samurai Champloo
Code Geass
Death Note
Ga-Rei Zero
One Piece
Ergo Proxy

-i got tons of favorites (i forgot the others) but i think K-On!! is the odd one since it's the only slice-of-life show i ended up falling in love with.

LifeILL · 2011-05-23, 20:54

Devil May Cry, yeah the show has no story. No character development, lame dialogue. But it has Dante, oozing coolness.

Hey, Samurai Champloo had no story but people loved that show.

I think Hellsing Ultimate and Gintama for me is a little out of place. I gravitate towards darker shows that are either in the action, sci-fi or drama genres, with good plots and/or character development - some of my favourites include FMA: Brotherhood, Monster, Baccano!, Mushishi and Sword of the Stranger. Hellsing is mostly eyecandy, with gratuitous violence and over-the-top action, while Gintama is outrageous comedy (the action's still there of course, pretty much a must for me). I also don't think TTGL is my kind of show either but I loved it

Zeroryoko1974 · 2011-05-28, 07:25

Some of my favorites
Sailor Moon
Aria
Angel Beats
Clannad

Yes, comedy is my weakness. But Natsume Yuujinchou was an exception.
Natsume was a good experience. I loved the light story between Reiko and the ghosts.
The light setting was superb and it just keeps you from coming back.

Bridge to the Starry Skies I usually don't like harem anime unless they have action fighting parts

Endless Soul · 2011-05-31, 12:33

I'm the type that generally likes action, mecha or comedy, however, one anime that really suprised me and totally went against my usual likes was Kimi ni Todoke.

Series' like this I'm usually not very fond of.

Same for me.

Out of all my favorite series, Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt sticks out. I usually dislike series like it, but for some reason I just love it.

Forsaken-Waffle · 2011-05-31, 18:00

For some odd reason i got to say i like school days (Not cause of the ending) Because it reminds me to do some work in the kitchen more llolol

kitten320 · 2011-06-02, 13:25

Hard question for me... all my top of the top seem to be similar... but if look at those that I want to re-watch:
1) Mai HiME
2) Ghost Hunt
3) Ga-Rei Zero
4) Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom
5) Shiki
6) Magica Madoka
7) GTO
8) Baccano!
9) K-ON
10) Fairy Tail
11) FMA
12) Claymore

Well as you can see I'm mostly into suspence, drama, mysteries, action... GTO and Fairy Tail do stand out a bit since they are more comedy orientated but they still keep some of those elements while K-ON is a total comedy with no suspnce, drama or what so ever (if not count graduation part). And it almost has no plot, just one-shots., I don't like one shot series... I guess the reason I like it is because the characters remind me of myself... they have a goal yet they are too lazy right now to actually put all their effort into reaching it just yet.

P.S. The first 6 are my top of the top series, though GTO and Baccano are really close with them.
