I'm looking for a 10/10 anime with great pacing, amazing character writing, top-tier animation and endearing storytelling. It can be any genre as long as it's a masterpiece. You can check my anime list for my tastes but I like anything as long as it's good.

https://myanimelist.net/anime/9253/Steins_Gate (some people complain about the pacing, but they are wrong. all of characters except Kurisu act kind of cringey but it becomes clear that it's a mask they wear and their authentic selves do come through at moments)

Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan - Tsuioku-hen
Uchuu Senkan Yamato 2199 -- "Endearing storytelling" doesn't really fit here (maybe for a couple of episodes) -- but it's a masterpiece for animation and most of all: the OST.

I don't really give out 10's (I literally have 5) so here are some almost masterpieces that are CLOSE to perfect if not for a few things holding them back (imo):

Natsume Yuujinchou (seasons 3 & 4 are 2 of my five 10's. Also, season 7 starts in a little over a week! I can't wait!)
Moriarty the Patriot
Hikaru no Go
Barakamon
Bakuman
Major
Gin no Saji
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0
Shoukoku no Altair
Kaleido Star
Shinsekai yori
Hajime no Ippo

Also, +1 from me for Mushishi, Mo Dao Zu Shi, and Dororo. Mononoke as well, but the animation is something to get used to lol (it's very artistic. I quite like it, but not everyone does).

You need to watch Mawaru Penguindrum!! You won't regret. This is such a gem and still not so many people have seen this anime.
Also try Ef: a tale of memories. Maybe won't be 10/10 for you, but something to remember for sure.

@JoeChip Thanks for the suggestion. I started watching Brotherhood a few days ago. The beginning of it is really rushed compared to the original.

@phantom346 yeah sorry i'm not going to look at your list, i'm just going to name masterpieces and you can just eliminate the ones you've already seen but it would take too long to look at your list and i'm too lazy i'm not doing that. Plus some people say look at their list to get profile views i'm not doing that either. Just watch the ones which you haven't seen yet

It's hard to call an anime a masterpiece because that's subjective. Something that you think is a masterpiece may not seem like one to me, and vice versa. In any case, for me, Shoujo Kakumei Utena is a masterpiece, and its movie, Shoujo Kakumei Utena: Adolescence Mokushiroku, complements it perfectly.
I highly recommend it.

PD: For me, School Days is also a 10.

You liked Chihayafuru, so I present to you Chihayafuru's equally fantastic counterpart manga Kono Oto Tomare.

If you want endearing found family + slow-burn romance + incredible character development for the Entire cast + competition vibes + traditional Koto (Japanese instrument) music, then you'll love Kono Oto Tomare
