Vote for the anime you think is a must watch. The numbers next to the names are the episodes I've watched. (Some of the anime I've dropped are not here because I have no intention on finishing them.)

Darker than Black, Charlotte and Jigoku Shoujo (only the first 2 seasons, the conclusion to the main characters' story is with the 2nd).

Damn, some solid titles there resting in that drop list, but alright, we'll focus on the poll.

Of those in the poll, I've only seen Ergo Proxy, Shinsekai yori, TTGL, and Texhnolyze, all titles that I enjoyed to some extent (though, TTGL would be my least preferred in that line up).
It depends what you want. Ergo Proxy and Texhnolyze are arguably slow burners, with the latter being agonizingly the slowest (but this is what personally made this anime charming to me due to how gut wrenching the insufferable circumstances were and then laid to rest with a... tragically bittersweet ending). Ergo Proxy has charm in how the characters interact and the subdued, longing, atmosphere it paints with a mix of mystery intrigue thrown in.

TTGL, well, despite my dismal praise for it, I do kinda believe it's a 'must-watch'. I imagine its hook is the vast and rampant, fist-pumping, action. Along with that, it features a transformative (heh) cast that moves into the 2nd half. In other words, it's not your typical balls to the wall action pitch. Just personally not my cup of tea.

Shinsekai yori, I admittedly have not seen it since its airing. I found its atmosphere to be rather unique and its lore just as splendid. From what I remember, it has one of those food for thought kind of plots, the kind where you may not be certain who to be more sympathetic to. Us or them. It really was a refreshing anime for its time during the late 2012 season.

Take it as you will.

1. No Game No Life (You watched more than half of it and it's the only one listed that's the closest to being completed).
2. Boku no Hero Academia - Pretty decent
3. Charlotte (Ending may be considered rushed, so you might not like that).

In my opinion No game No life is an must. Besides you only have 5 episodes to go.

I would say everything but NGNL on your list deserve another chance, I voted for darker than black, but Shinsekai Yori, TTGL and Mousou Dairinin are also considered must watch by me.

Boku no Hero Academia gets better as it goes for the whole season, the further you get into it the better it is. however the only reason id say to not watch it is if you cant get into the world, its very into itself in the sense that they call the good guys literal "Heros" and the bad guys "villains"

but if you dont have a problem with that, its a great show in my opinion

The only anime from the list i have already watched are:
Durara
Darker Than Black
Gosick
No Game No Life
Shinsekai Yori
Charlotte

So i cant say anything to other than those. But from the list above i dropped Darker Than Black on its 3rd season though i finished the previous seasons. The same as Gosick, i watched till 16 episodes but decided to drop it since i dont find it more appealing or interesting on either character and mystery sides. Reason why i dont find the mystery hooked me up at all is
.

I recommended either Shinsekai Yori or Durarara
