Cowboy Bebop - boring
LOGH - boring and illogical tactics and nonsensical world setting with hundreds of plot holes

Neon Genesis Evangelion: End of Evangelion - asuka tits can be seen without having to watch the whole movie
Ergo Proxy - shouldn't be watched more than one time
Haibane Renmei - shouldn't be watched more than one time
Serial Experiments Lain - shouldn't be watched more than one time
Mobile Suit Gundam - shouldn't be watched more than one time
Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam - shouldn't be watched more than one time
Mobike Suit: Char's Counterattack - shouldn't be watched more than one time

I started watching more than half of those, and didn't really like a single one of them.

Only gave Monster a 6/10 because best girl Eva was very entertaining for all the wrong reasons.

Monster - haven't watched it, sounds boring
Cowboy Bebop - watched it, was okay
LOGH - haven't watched it, sounds like a sausage fest
Neon Genesis Evangelion - watched it a long time ago, was good
Neon Genesis Evangelion: End of Evangelion - haven't watched it, kinda lost interest in NGE
Ergo Proxy - haven't watched it, not my genre
Haibane Renmei - never even heard of it, sounds boring though
Serial Experiments Lain - haven't watched it, not my genre
Mobile Suit Gundam - haven't watched it, not my genre
Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam - haven't watched it, not my genre
Mobike Suit: Char's Counterattack - haven't watched it, not my genre
The Twelve Kingdoms - haven't watched it, might actually be worth watching
Utena - haven't watched it, not my genre
Ghost in the Shell - watched it, was good

Three gundam shows on a "must watch" list seems quite unnecessary.

It has something to do with the star systems that have yet been colonised or is uncolonisable, which means there is no source of supply or support once you travel through there. Space is vast, you know.

It's considered basic knowledge after hundred years of expansion, so I guess there's no need for the characters pointing it out, and judging from the maps they used, there is no traveling route across that vast area of space written.

Monster - I've watched Death Note, I'll watch this to.

Cowboy Bebop - I've watched Samurai Champloo, but maybe someday.

LOGH - Log Horizon?, if it is, I've seen it.

Neon Genesis Evangelion
Neon Genesis Evangelion: End of Evangelion - I will watch all of it.

Ergo Proxy - haven't seen it, don't know if I will.

Haibane Renmei - seen it, loved it.

Serial Experiments Lain - eventually.

Mobile Suit Gundam
Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam
Mobike Suit: Char's Counterattack
Gundam is an acquired taste, but I'm not ignorant, so maybe someday.

The Twelve Kingdoms - seen it, loved it.

Utena - eventually.

Ghost in the Shell I've seen only the 2D TV series of it, no movie, or 3D content.

Monster - interesting, but told through a series of horrible fake suspense/cliffhanger scenes. Also the focus always jumps to the least interesting plot thread the minute the current one becomes fun.
Cowboy Bebop - duh, but after so many rewatches I kind of became numbed to it.
LOGH - I think that the Die Neue These reboot is more beginner friendly, also quite good, but veterans keep trashing it for no reason.
Neon Genesis Evangelion - naaah, it's pretentious and annoyingly melodramatic.
Neon Genesis Evangelion: End of Evangelion - see above.
Ergo Proxy - pretentious and boring.
Haibane Renmei - no idea, but its fans are unable to explain what's so good about it.
Serial Experiments Lain - no idea. but looks kind of boring and preachy.
Mobile Suit Gundam - I would recommend the compilation movies, also I would never recommend it to newcomers.
Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam - it's quite absurd and crazy, definitely not for newcomers.
Mobike Suit: Char's Counterattack - it's a good movie, but you need context from the previous UC titles.
The Twelve Kingdoms - no idea, but looks sus and melodramatic.
Utena - Kunihiko Ikuhara is a pervert and a psychopath. All his original projects should be banned.
Ghost in the Shell - better start with Ghost In The Shell SAC and only than check out the movies.

I've only watched three of those and they all basically gave me an existential crisis, so I'm not rewatching them.

I think it was for the right reasons. Eva was the most interesting thing going on in Monster. So much of the story is just "Tenma goes to new area, meet new character, show off doctor skills, new character either dies or you just plain never see them again, exposition on Johan". Rinse and repeat.

I feel like Monster gets overhyped a lot because its a unique story...for anime/manga. It's certainly not a bad story, but its definitely not the masterpiece people make it out to be. Maybe since its "deeper" to most people than just another shonen, isekai, ecchi series it gets more love. I think its dumb to praise something just because its different. I'd give Monster a 7/10, so not as harsh as you, but I definitely understand why some people don't like it.

Despite people just saying "shouldn't be watched more than one time" without giving any explanation, I can kinda see where they are coming from.
Just because something is "old" it doesn't mean it's good. OP "casually" just recommended old anime with a large fanbases known for being always bitching about new products.

I've watched Monster, fantastic show

Ergo Proxy, again great show

NGE and End of Evangelion, watched both not my favourite mecha but the movie awesome.

LOGH, I've been watching Die Neue Thesis it was one of the first anime I started watching with my brother.

I've watched MGS, both the series and the trilogy and watched Chars Counter Attack and I'm watching Zeta Gundam. I've watched a fair bit of Gundam now.

I've not watched Cowboy yet, in half way but stopped a while back so I'll likely restart. I've seen Trigun and Samurai Champloo.

Rest I haven't seen.

I also add Madoka Magica, Parasyte, Gurren Lagann, Psycho Pass Berserk, Fate/Zero to the list as well. Those are some other really good shows.

I would go as far as saying the core plot straight up makes basically no sense, and it's really lame that the core cast of Tenma Johan and Anna got no character development.

And by "wrong reasons" I just meant I'm a big enjoyer of trashy romance dramas, ever since Domestic Girlfriend broke something inside me.

that's why i said "yeah i know that". It's not about it being basic knowledge or not. The show prides itself so much with its lore having explained things even from the very beginning of the two nations' conflict, who their founders were etc so ignoring those "uncolonisable star systems" with only "we only have Fezzan and Iserlohn corridors" with a thousand years worth of space exploration happening in between comes as nothing but neglecting its own objective. Not to mention the level of technology mankind has as shown in the present timeline which demands even more explanation to why they're uncolonisable.

Also, the characters don't have to point it out. The NARRATOR should.

Toradora would most likely bore me to death too, but only if I didn't die of cringe first.

Domestic Girlfriend however is awesome. I believe it was in an interview with Gigguk where the author said that the inspiration for the plot was Game of Thrones, so she filled the story with rapid (and very spicy) plot developments.

See I think it the romance part which bores me, and often in SOL or CGDGT the characters go around doing average things, the fact the story is about the humdrum every day affairs of people with a few 'drama' scenes of someone finding out their partner isn't being 100% committed to the relationship but has a secret harem just reminds me of soap opera and I can't stand soap operas.

mind sharing a bit more? Bcoz i too found the battle tactics nonsensical and also didn't buy the part where
let me see if I remember the good ones
- all of their tactics are "charge" and "out flank them" in a show with hardened generals
- enemy ships come out of the blue, where are the recon ships? why is no one using them?
- small fighters can destroy ships with 2 blasts whereas when ship vs ship happens they shoot for tens of blasts, anyways there's no way a small fighter can destroy a ship
- yang going to have peace talks in a small ship makes no sense, logical rules of war state that the party who asked for peace has to go there and even so, yang could have easily go with warships instead of a civilian ship because like I said "peace wasn't signed", yang had the upper hand, he should have asked for reinhardt to come to the fortress or them going to a neutral planet somewhere close, make a joint team with both parties involved to clear the area of potential rebels who would want to assassinate someone BEFOREHAND
- in the last big battle an empire ship took 2 days to reach the flagship yet on return to the exact same position it took 2 hours, I'm not making this up, it was hilarious
- the empire allowed the rebel army to roam with no worry in the new part of the universe till they became as powerful and developed as the empire, this is literally amusing
- reinhard doesn't wanna do stuff because "what would the normal people/citizens think" in an empire nonetheless, apparently propaganda can be used only when the plot needs it to be and of course reinhard used propaganda afterwards yet forgot about the "what would the normal people think"
- first thing you do after you conquer a country is to eliminate threat, what is the empire doing? they let yang live even though we know how much of a snake obestein is. So basically obestein found it easy to bomb civilians to ensure a win yet he didn't wanna kill yang in an "accident" because ...?

and there are more, literally hundreds, what you asked is something in-universe that they never explained, maybe something like a space that doesn't allow navigation/toxic/radioactive/etc but it's idiotic that we have to think that for ourselves because the creator has no idea how sci fi works

See I think it the romance part which bores me, and often in SOL or CGDGT the characters go around doing average things, the fact the story is about the humdrum every day affairs of people with a few 'drama' scenes of someone finding out their partner isn't being 100% committed to the relationship but has a secret harem just reminds me of soap opera and I can't stand soap operas. 

Yes. Don't expect me to explain why I suddenly gained an interest in that, I couldn't explain it to you.
Maybe I just got old.

i've never seen anyone saying Monster is a masterpiece just bcoz it's unique tho.


But you do though. They may not flat out say "I like it because its unique", but thats what they end up saying. The top review on MAL literally starts off with "Monster isn't a traditional manga. It isn't about fighting." lol. The review then goes into liking how complex the story is, but doesn't even go into why its complex. That's because the story isn't complex at all, its actually very straight forward. Its a story with subplots that you see in every cable crime drama on TV. But it can seem more complex in an anime genre that is often formulaic with shonen, harems, mecha etc. Keep in mind this is the highest voted review as well.

I think the issue is people try to constantly compare things that shouldn't be compared. Its like the people who compare Marvel movies to Oscar-bait movies. Why are you comparing them in the first place? If I give the new Super Mario Bros. movie a 9, but give The Irishman a 6, that doesn't mean I think the Mario movie is better. The Mario movie simply did what it wanted a lot better than the Irishman.

No everyone should watch School Days. I mean most people went to school so it's relatable anime to most people. It's the most school anime school anime can be.

I see, you gave Space Dandy and Cowboy Bebop a 9, I guess your taste in anime is highly questionable as well. Good to meet a fellow user who has bad taste like me.
Nah man both Cowboy Bebop and Space Dandy are based, this is well known.

Yeah and Fairy Tail has 9 times the favorites of Space Dandy, I'm sure this discussion will go somewhere. Because taste is totally objective, right?

I don't think I have seen a single depiction of school in any media that'd be relatable.

It's subjective of course but if you said "I love the taste of shit" you would still have questionable preferences.

Bah, just a generic elitist list. I hoped to see something unusual here.
