Back (Part 1): https://myanimelist.net/stacks/101

Collection of anime that are widely considered influential, iconic or popular.

Have you ever wanted to understand all the anime tropes, memes and references? This is the list you are looking for.

Many anime take elements from prior made ones and mix them into something new. The anime on this list are the origin of various genre tropes and character archetypes. Here you'll find everything from the first "Kamehameha", the origin of tsundere girls, and the source of various memes and reaction images.

Honorable mentions: I chose not to include anime that are unlikely to get picked up due to their age or because they were never really popular outside of Japan, nevertheless I want to mention them here because they were still very important for the anime industry:
Astro Boy (1963), Gigantor (1963), Speed Racer (1967), Sazae-san (1969), Lupin III (1971), Doraemon (1973), Mobile Suit Gundam (1979), Urusei Yatsura (1981).

I also wanted to add Boku no Pico to this list but MAL didn't let me.

(Stack is still under construction and being permanently updated.)

In 2006, the Japan Media Arts Festival held a special 10th anniversary awards festival for manga, anime, art and entertainment. For manga and anime, the rankings were split into a popularity poll (general public vote), and a 'professionals' ranking (critics, directors, etc.). The only 3 series in the 'professionals' ranking for both manga and anime were 'Astro Boy', 'Doraemon', and 'AKIRA'.

These are the anime voted by the 'professionals'. First place in the popularity poll was 'Neon Genesis Evangelion'.

This is a list of anime that fall under the 'Cottagecore' aesthetic. The Cottagecore aesthetic romanticizes nature, the countryside and slow living. It consists of peaceful pastoral locations, homemade crafts, and traditional homesteading activities such as cooking, picnicking, gardening, forging, care-taking, etc.

Cottagecore is a western concept, but goes hand in hand with 'Iyashikei', which is a theme often intertwined with Slice of Life. It emphasizes slow living, and appreciates the wonder of being alive. It brings a gentle joy to the chores in every day life, and has a peaceful, serene tone. It's one of the narrative styles that make Japanese works so distinct and charming.

I'll be adding to this list as time goes on. Some of these works wont fully fit the Cottagecore aesthetic, but are close enough that they're worthy of being in the stack.

for when real life is becoming a bit too much and you just need to watch some comfy anime

mixed genre

happy endings with a positive note
kinda wholesome and motivational

ADD; THE RED TURTLE 10/10

A collection of anime that aren’t Ecchi and have absolute zero erotic/questionable scenes.

(Okay, statistically speaking, these titles are 90% fanservice free. Any fanservice scenes present in the titles that have it are so small and insignificant that the story and characters easily overpower it.)

These titles are mostly family-friendly or at least friend-friendly in general. (Aside from Magia Record)
