Well.
Thank you to all who have been contributing since the 1st post.
I have watched a large amount of great Anime since starting this thread.
Following the same guidelines.
Are there any recommendations for great shows in the last 3 years.
I would put *Shingeki no Kyojin* as an example.It was very enjoyable can't wait for season 2.

Glad to see the thread is still building out some more great recommendations.Was hoping we can limit it from now on to recent Anime as requested before. Trying to get to a point where Anime must have only aired in the last 5 years. Thanks for participating.
Those ratings are just made up. And it would make more sense to use TV ratings (like TV MA) than movie ratings.
