For me probably Death Note and Future Diary.
Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is really good.
FLCL is good but weird.
Monogatari is an absolute disaster, but also really good. The author is at the same time incredibly talented and also constantly betrays his removed.
Nausicaa Manga also by Hayao Miyazaki, expands on the movie immensely and is much better for that reason.
Personally, I loved it. It just made sense with the themes of story and the world itself. But, I can see why someone could dislike it.
Legend of The Galactic Heroes
Mushishi
Odd Taxi
Steins;Gate
Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex (seasons 1 & 2)
Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica is absolute best.
Spice and Wolf, No game no life, Baccano, Chihayafuru, Amagi Briliant Park, Ore Monogatari, or even Kakegurui, Black Lagoon, Jormungand, Gurren Lagann for series.
Ghost in the Shell for movies (Madoka also is in a movie form). I haven't seen many movies, Spirited Away was OK, but not really for me.
I used to like Bakemonogatari, but after the years I'm not sure I would enjoy anything after Senjougahara's arc. Angel Beats was also fun, but in a silly way. Aho girl is pure silliness.

Koimonogatari is absolute top. It has all of the good things without being problematic.
There are so many sequals that I lost track.
But I meant specifically the first season - there was more than one little girl in very unsettling situations. Yikes.
Even the teeth brushing wasn't as bad as the first season.
Yes, and there are also fucked up moments in the later seasons too, it had really soured my opinion on the series.
Like I had 0 issues with Hanekawa, even the cat version was cool, but Hachikuji and specially Sengoku was way too much.
I dropped it around Hanamonogatari, but I stopped watching anime altogether, so I will most likely not continue the series.
It actually gets somewhat better later on, the most problematic part was Onimonogatari.
Do you mean Owari? Just making sure, since I can't find Oni.
I just wanted more Senjougahara. She was the only reason I started watching in the first place, loved her dialogues with Koyomi, and couldn't wait to get more of her screen time.
Then she cut her hair, and I dunno, she wasn't the same.
Oni is part of the Second Season, it basically goes Neko (White) - Kabuki - Otori - Oni - Koi with Hana floating around separately due to missed deadlines.
Owari is pretty good, if you like Senjougahara, you would really enjoy Hitagi Rendezvous arc. And she also has short but cool appearances in other arcs too.
I love rewarching Jormungand, Koko is amazing, and the whole story flows nicely.
Baccano I never rewatched, still scarred by that crying kid, I don't even know if it was the OVA or the first season, but I don't dare to find out. Amazing anime, but one-time only.
Serial Experiments Lain, Perfect Blue and Ghost in the Shell (Original Movie)
Violet Evergarden, A Place Further than the Universe, and Your Lie in April
I really liked Grimgar and wish it would get more seasons someday. It's in a sort of Isekai fantasy setting, but the way they go about making every part of that situation seem realistic and horrible is great. From having no food or money to how horrible it actually is to have to stab something to death felt like a really fresh take on the genre at the time. Just be warned that you'll have to pick up the light novels to continue the story. It's no berserk '97 cliff hanger, but you definitely want to know what's up with the world and why they're even there which isn't covered in the anime.
Also, on topic, berserk '97.
Anyone who liked squid game should check out Kaiji, it's that but better
Also Sk8 the Infinity slaps
Kaiji hooked me HARD when I started it. The anime has a fantastic narrator as well.
3gatsu no Lion is my all time fave, just some deeply empathic storytelling with the Shaft aesthetic while also not being problematic like the Monogatari Series nor being about magical girls.
AoT, Full Metal Alchemist, Stein's;Gate, Yuru Camp, San-gatsu No Lion, Mob Psycho 100. My Neighbor Totoro, Nausicaa( Although manga is much better than the movie). Gintama, Sket Dance, Nichijou.
