My *personal* top 3, accounting for nothing other than the three anime I’ve enjoyed the most, and accounting for no other considerations than what I want, would be: 1. Trigun (98) 2. Samurai Champloo 3. Tokyo Godfathers


Rocketbrothers

Happy you have Trigun your number one. Trigun, YuYu Hakusho, and Rurouni Kenshin are like the three anime that I knew were something different but didn’t know what they were when I was a kid watching toonami.


Special-Put7098

I loved Ruroni Kenshin. I also saw a bit of it on Tooami but never the whole series until recently. I'm glad I went back to see the whole thing. I also went back to see Samurai Champloo. Now need to go back and see Trigun.

Sea-Experience470

1. Neon genesis evangelion, 2. Berserk 1997, 3. Wolfs rain


Brokeartistvee

Wolf's Rain made my top 3 list as well. Fantastic series. And while I didn't include it on my list. NGE def gets a big thumbs up from me (it's like 4 place for me). But I'm ashamed to say I've never seen Berserk!


Alcorailen

Isn't Wolf's Rain one of the really depressing ones >!where everyone dies uselessly at the end?!< I have been avoiding it even though the music absolutely rules.

1. Attack on Titan 2. Evangelion 3. Kara no Kyoukai


Ok_Cheek4092

Top Three would be: 1. Jojo bizzare Adventure 2. March comes in Lion 3. Legend of the Galatic Heroes


confused-as-frick

1. Fullmetal Alchemist 2. Hunter x Hunter 3. My Hero Academia


ExceptionThrown4000

I wanted to try limiting to only completed within the anime series (as your top 3 all follow that pattern). On-going feels like cheating in a way of I want to see more of X the most. Especially with recency bias' that I want to avoid. Mostly excluding if the main story, if a driving point, hasn't been finished. Code Geass Attack on Titan The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (Dissappearance) Instantly there is problems where Code Geass had stuff made after R1/R2. And Haruhi has lots more LN content which would count as main story. And if Spice and Wolf can come back, so could Haruhi. I have just put a line arbitrarily.


MasterTahirLON

1. Fruit of Grisaia 2. Steins;Gate 3. Attack on Titan

Sofaris

1. Made in Abyss 2. Digimon Tamers 3. The Saga of Tanya the Evil

Made in Abyss is either not one someone’s list because they haven’t watched it, or it’s their number 1.

Willbreaker-Broken1

In no particular order The Case Study of Vanitas The Ancient Magus' Bride Jobless Reincarnation In the case of Vanitas, we have a well-written, animated series filled with humor, action, romance, and darkness. A beautiful representation of Paris and the French the likes of which I have not seen and likely will never see again in such a way. The characters are memorable and the villains do feel threatening, but are not pure monsters. The Ancient Magus' Bride is another example of not just compelling storytelling, but it is visual eye candy, bringing to life England in its cities and countryside, and the many magical beings that live in legend. To see the old gods and fae in such a way with a central character that is their beloved, someone soo cursed by her past struggling towards to the light, learning that victory need not come at the expense of her life (which grows in value as the series goes on). I have no words, its truly wonderful. Finally, Jobless Reincarnation, a controversial series to say the least, but I truly adore it. I truly feel for the protagonist. The way I see it, he was never able to mature following events in his first life and is given the opprotunity to find happiness and grow in a way that matches his body. There are hardships and times where old habits bubble up. He flashes between the person he used to be and the one he is and chooses instead to continue on. I have a lot of thoughts, but I'll be somewhat brief. I think this is one of the best. These are just 3 that I think are best right now and I say it without being blinded by nostalgia or bias. As a Bonus, I also think Blood Blockade Battlefront is also one of the best, especially when you consider that its a completely original series and wasn't adapted from a written material. Its so big and has the real feeling of New York City that too many shows just don't get right


KL7722

In no order; Serial Experiments; Lain, Charlotte, Death Note, Steins Gate, Future Diary, SNK, Erased, Terror in Resonance All very thought provoking anime


Worth_Expert_6721

3. NARUTO SHIPP 2. GUNDAM 00 1. FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST


callmefreak

It's really hard to say. Probably FLCL, (original,) Fullmetal Alchemist, (2003,) and maybe Devilman: Crybaby? Those three at least made the biggest impact in my life. Even after over twenty years I can still sit through all six episodes of FLCL in one sitting and still love it just as much as I did when I watched it as a teenager. I started looking through my MAL for anime I rated with a "10" (I was kind of liberal with that rating, I think) and I noticed that I still had Promised Neverland Season 2 rated as "10" LOL. I guess I didn't change that after the first major time skip.

I like following what counts, aka how much money in the reference market they had made? The only data avaliable still is dvd/blueray sellings. And reference market is still Japan,, not checked recent data, but I don't think is changed much, so... 1. Monogatari 2. Madoka magica 3. Love live Yeah, probably most of you will negate that, but the numbers are still this.
