I can't think of ten, so I'm tossing out one.

And I'm wondering why nobody mentioned it yet.

Kara no Kyoukai
Seven movies adapted from light novels written by Kinoko Nasu and illustrated by Takashi Takeuchi. The movies are quite simply wondrous to behold. The art is stunning, the animation is fluid and the production values are some of the highest I've seen in an anime film.

Story is quite good but a little confusing (lol incomprehensible Nasuwords), especially since the movies were aired in anachronistic order. The plot involves one Shiki Ryougi, a young woman who obtains the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, enabling her to see the "lines of death" in objects, people and more. By cutting those lines she can literally kill just about anything. Throw in some sorcerers, psychos, killers and otherwise warped and very powerful people, and the end result is pretty much awesome.
