5 Centimeters Per Second is insanely good if you like a realistic depiction of love, though you may want to be careful since it can leave a sour taste in your mouth, especially if you do not like non happy ever after endings.

I see you watched Higurashi and Tatami Galaxy. Noice. Would have recommended those just because they are godly.

I'm surprised you haven't watched Rurouni Kenshin yet. Typical shounen kind of, but very well made and generally much better than most of its competition. If you decide to watch it, there are also two OVA's. I'd suggest watching Rurouni Kenshin: Trust and Betrayal and to watch it before watching the main series. It is extremely good, probably one of the best anime OVA's out there. Call me biased, it just does everything right.

Usagi Drop - HOW SLICE OF LIFE SHOULD BE DONE. And yes, that needed to be said in caps. Watch it, love it.

Seirei no Moribito. While it can get slow at times, its so wonderfully done that you won't even care. Feudal times. A prince in danger. One bad ass female protagonist. Sweet.

Perfect Blue. An old school film about the troubles that a pop idol/actress faces in our society. Really well made.

Oh, and someone report dis guy for watching Queens Blade. kthxbye.

I'm probably late to the party, but I noticed you've seen LUCKY STAR!!! :D And Gunslinger Girl! GG was one of my favorites.

Anyway, I didn't see these on your list:

1. Another

   • Another centers around the mysterious deaths of students at a Senior class in Yomiyama after a transfer student named Koichi befriends a quiet classmate named Mei. The show is pretty dark, similar to Higurashi, but at a slower pace. I found it to be quite gruesome at certain deaths, but also strangely comedic. The best comparison to this anime has been Final Destination in animated form. It's one to check out. :)

2. Btoom!

   • Think Halo in real life and you will have Btoom! Basically, a group of very skilled FPS players are selected by the game's creator and taken to a remote island to compete for their lives in a real-life deathmatch. It's a medium paced story whch gives quite a bit of action and WTF moments. Truly shows you a scenario where your friends can become your biggest enemies when your lives each carry the same weight. Like Another, it's pretty dark.

3. FullMoon wo Sagashite

   • I didn't see this on your lists, so I'll go ahead and recommend it because you've seen ChoBits which came out around the same time. FMoS is a story of a girl whose life dream is to sing on stage and be a pop star. Unfortunately, she has cancer and the only cure is to take out her vocal chords which would ruin her dreams. She is greeted by two shinigami (Angels of Death) who tell her she has one year left to live, and she makes a deal with them that if she can become a pop star before her year is up, she will go peacefully. It's a sad anime because it really makes you feel for the girl and her struggle. The music is good too. It's quite old (2003), but I still recommend it.

4. Kikaider

   • Another oldie about an android whose master dies in an explosion, leaving the creation to fend for himself. Kikaider befriends his creator's children and they try to teach him the ways of life, although he's built for destruction and his 'instincts' get the best of him at times. Very similar to the later anime, Casshern Sins, but with less wandering around aimlessly.

5. Log Horizon 2

   • This is a sequel to Log Horizon which you've seen already. It picks up around the time of the Sports Festival where Shiroe is having some trouble keeping the city maintained. I know people are comparing this to SAO, but I'd actually compare this more to .hack//sign than SAO for its pace and social view as opposed to mindless combat like in SAO.

6. Code: Breaker

   • Code: Breaker is one I forgot to mention. It's about a girl who witnesses a murder of sorts where people are burned by blue flames, yet the killer is only a boy her age. She tries to stalk him and finds out he is one of the mysterious Code: Breakers, a group of assassins who use magical abilities to kill people they deem "unworthy" (liars, murderers, cheaters, etc.). It's a bit dark, but comedic as well. Has a similarity to Blue Exorcist in some ways.

That's all I can recommend as of now. I would mention InuYasha or YuYu Hakusho, but I'm not sure if you've already seen them or not. If not, YuYu Hakusho is a great anime about a teen who dies and has to complete certain tasks to get his body back. Has a mix of comedy, romance, action, and some serious heartfelt moments. Accel World, although it's by the same creator of SAO, is a good comedic anime. Pretty typical Japanese nerd who crushes on hot girl cliché.

I hope I helped. :)

EDIT : Added some more.

Nurarihyon no mago. Maybe it's not something awesome but still pleasurable to watch, especially if you like japanese tales and demons.

WHAT the fact no one has said the manga

1. "The Breaker" (first season) and
2. "The Breaker: New Waves (2nd season)

makes me lose faith in all humanity

its so rare for such a good manga to exist and no one seems to wanna say its name

• EDIT * i just noticed he asked for anime not manga lmaoooooo
  i feel stupid now

The only anime I've watched is Cowboy Bebop (you've already watched) and Slayers (on your "plan to watch" list).

Natsume Yuujinchou is intresting .

You should watch Gokukoku no Brynhildr. It's a horror/action anime from the creator of Elfen Lied

No Dragon Ball, Saint Seiya, Hagane no Renkinjutsushi or gundam?!?! I don't know why they aren't on completed really... I am a rather mainstream otaku (if it isn't an oxymoron).

I recommend:

• Shaman King
• Saint Seiya
• Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas – The Myth of Hades
• Hagane no Renkinjutsushi Furumetaru Arukemisuto (FMA Brotherhood)
• Gundam Wing
• Gundam 00

At least Shingeki, Rurouni Kenshin, Elfen Lied and Patlabor are there :D

PS: I recommend everyone to download popcorntime.io, it's great for movies, anime and tv series!

I voted Mecha for one reason only... Code Geass is simply the best anime i have ever watched from all of the plot twists, strategic planning and the amazing way they ended it in season 2... it was one of the few anime that after watching it i ponied up the $80 per season (at the time now its higher on amazon) to own it even though it was relatively expensive. Side recommendations are Death Note (Season 1 only), FullMetal Alchemist (currently watching and love it), Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, and if you like this kind of thing Rosario Vampire.

Gun x Sword

Short but it has a decent plot and interesting characters.

Amagi Brilliant Park, Gintama, Hataraku Maou-sama, Hyouka.

I think you haven't watched Inuyasha.

I really enjoyed that anime, the plot is what was most interesting to me with a very clever villain and an unexpected ending (last episode!!).
Although there are some filler episodes the anime has like 200 episodes only.

Plus: I love the opening songs! :)

I've never been a huge fan of anime, but there has been some that I really enjoyed.

I love Patlabor: The Movie and Patlabor 2: The Movie, although I'm not sure if those are the same as the versions of Patlabor you have listed. I figure it might be the same movies but Japanese vs. US labels.

One of my favorites is Dominion Tank Police, which is exactly what it sounds like. A police force that uses tanks instead of cars.

Also, I'm really surprised that Vampire Hunter D (1985) and Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (2000). The first one is a classic movie, and the much delayed sequel really jazzed things up.

I mainly watch horror-thriller animes, but I seen a few pretty good ones.

Another (this was recommended before, but I am recommending it too. It has a good story, and a really breathtaking revelation)

Corpse Party (idk if it was recommended) PDP played the game version, but there is a 4 part anime series, and it's pretty good. It almost made me cry, even if I'm not that type of guy.

Danganronpa (aka Danganronpa: Hope's Academy and Despair's Students) This is the best one I have ever seen. The plot is awesome, and it doesn't have many "accidental sexy things". The narrative is really good, and the headmaster's personaility is well detailed too. Also it is available, and based on a visual novel, made for PSP. If you have a PS Vita, you can play this one, and the sequel too (which wasn't made as an anime yet), but decide if you want to play the PSV or the PSP translated version, because the two translations are very, very different.

Persona 4 The Animation (yeah based on a game, but) the plot is really good, so are the characters. If you have a PS 2 or PS Vita, you can play even play the game, which was based on.

Sword Art Online 1-2: This is a really good one too. The protagonist get captured in a video game, from which he can't exit, or the VR headset kills him. He has to defeat all 100 bosses to get released from the game. It's really good, but the second season doesn't really connects to the first one, except in characters.

And the all time classic: Yu-Gi-Oh! GX I've watched this, all four seasons with different languages. 1st: hungarian (my main language), 2nd: English (don't watch in english, it's like a german game. It's cut from all sex references, violent things, like guns and even bad language) 3rd: english, 4th: japanese with english sub. It was an awesome series, I can recommend it :)

I hope I could help :)

EDIT: Sorry: just realized your list. Well SAO and Yu-Gi-Oh aren't on it, os they worth a watch :)

"Planetes" is my favourite. Im a real fun of space and science fiction. This anime is about nearest future, space, space ships and stations, realistic life of the astronuats and it is very realistic, has very deep plot and very beutiful picture. And it is only 26 series!!! I really hate longlong serials(

Considering you have Mirai Nikki as a 9 and a background picture of Yuno, I have a feeling that our tastes in anime are 180 degree different.

Although, for the poll, I chose GAR because that's my Steam name.

Sorry, but I won't look at ur list and i'll just comment about some animes.

If you like a great story but don't mind a bit of comedy ecchi, "Sora no Otoshimono" is really nice, I like it because it's perverted humor is really brought together by it's bright colors and idioticness, while also using it to develop their characters. It holds a heartfelt story of how love is one of the most complex feelings and that the boundaries of what love is or who is allowed to feel love. Sadly it's 3rd season got halted and in turn they made a Movie to finish off the anime. The Movie requires you to read the Manga since it leaves out some major plot points, but if u read the manga the movie is nothing special it rather seems to be a last ditch effort to finish the project, why this decision was made is unknown to me.

2. If you like straight up comedy and would enjoy a few laughs EVERY episode you should take a look at "Seto no Hanayome", now I can't say much about plot or story for this one since it is pure comedy and it is the most randomest thing I've ever seen that still maintains everything going into the same direction. It ends nicely without much of a cliffhanger and has some extra OVAs afterwards for if u wish to have some more laughs. It's English title is My bride Is a Mermaid, which should at least give you a slight premise of some of the characters. Great Soundtracks too

3. If you enjoy an extensive anime with an even longer manga, "Hayate no Gotoku" is a nonsense slice of life comedy that spends most of it's first season being a complete parody and then starts to develop a more interesting story spread out into about 3 more seasons and a movie. To me the first season is split up into about 4 arcs based from the intros and outros, and I think that the last arc of the first season can be entirely skipped as it does the most randomest shit that makes you cringe and makes u wonder why you're still watching. I don't know what the makers were thinking and for better or for worse they thought so too because they didn't continue the story that occurred after the final arc of the first season and rather made a season 2 that goes back to a halfway point of season 1 and continues from there as if episodes 50ish-80ish never happened. Which is actually a great move on their part. I advise to watch the first season to the point of when they find out about an "Ultimate Butler Uniform" and then just cut off from their and go to season 2. I believe the anime has more than 200 episodes and idk if they are going to keep continuing since the movie came out of nowhere after 3 years and they then started more anime arcs after it.. The latest Season requires manga to know what happened as the anime skips very many arcs.

Those are few of my favorits so now ill just name out some random anime that I liked.

Angel Beats, Tora Dora, Mirai Nikki, Clannad and Clannad AfterStory, Haganai, Accel World, Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo.

All of these tend to revolve around a heartwarming story and I really recommend Angel Beats, Clannad and Clannad AfterStory and Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo.

Mirai Nikki and Accel World have a lot more action and a bit of dark stories.

I would recommend this site for some oldish comedy animes. Though the site no longer gets updated often it's archive of comedy anime has very accurate ratings and I would recommend watching that catches your eye that is above a rating of 6

Street Fighter II Victory
Easy to watch anime with good fights. I'am start to like story of this (game)series.
Other great animes already on your list

I suggest the anime Rainbow about prison life after world war 2 I didn't see it on your list unless you had it under a different name.

I commend you Durara and Baccano. Animes with really nice plot.

10/10 (and only 5% of the shows that I've seen are 10/10)
Nichijou
Texhnolyze
Also pretty good I guess
Denpa Teki na Kanojo
Ping Pong The Animation
And you need to rewatch Lain.

I notice that Mahoromatic: Automatic Maiden isn't on that list of yours. Mahoromatic is a sci-fi romantic comedy harem series [with elements of the literary tragic drama]. The basic premise is a combat android, driven by her guilt from her actions during the war with Saint, dedicates the rest of her life to serving her late commander's Son as a maid. It's somewhat typical shounen fare, but I still found it rather enjoyable.

Then there's Nyarko-san: Another Crawling Chaos, another rom-com and a satire, based on H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos. Yeah. Enough said, right? There's quite a few parody/references to be found if you know the references.

That said, you've definitely watched more anime than I have.
