| For some time I thought that no anime would be able to ever top Steins;Gate in my eyes, but when they adapt all the light novels I believe that Mushoku Tensei will at the very least have a joint 1st place. S;G is insanely good, but Mushoku has some intagible things that no other story has ever made me feel. The feeling of such an enormous overarching story, the mysteries and lore, the insane magic system and the world that talks to you. |

| I mean sure, I hope one day Steins Gate will be dethroned from my number 1 spot because that will mean I have discovered an even greater masterpiece. |
The Matrix has you... |
| I'm open to finding a better anime than death note but there isn't an anime which left nearly close of an impact on me as death note has it just stays goated |
| There is always a chance, but its not likely. the thing is, I believe there will never be another show that can make me feel the same way steins;gate made me feel.... But there also other shows that had a very unique impact on me.... so idk, never say never. As far as titles i have seen go, The only ones that may have a chance with later season/s are made in abyss and death parade. |

| I think nothing will ever top Clannad After Story imo. So it will always be my favorite. |
 |
| Technically flexible, but it really has to be exceptionally good for my #1 to change. Something as good as Inception, Interstellar, or Return of the King, if we want to reference western media. |
| I have 5 animes currently favorited on my profile. I think those all occupy the number one spot. The only similarities that those animes have with each other is vaguely being slice of life. They're all different in their own ways, and thats why I like them. I think it would unwise to try to rank them one through five when they're all about different things. |
 Be safe and well travels, Chris |
| I thought it was flexible at first but after watching quite some animes I think it's fixed now |
Complex Stories are basically sleeping pills . Helps to get some sleep . |
| Of course my number #1 can change but for that to happened it would mean something should resonate so deeply on a personal level at the exact point in my life, which is quite frankly said, rare. However, the older you get, the more you change as a person. For an example my top 3 anime 5 years ago are not even among my top 10 right now. |

| My top 2 (One Piece & Gintama) are permanently fixed in place, they mean way too much to me on a personal level to think they could ever be surpassed. |
| I've already removed a number of shows from my favorites because they either received a development that does not suit me or I simply lost interest in them. |
 |
| Violet Evergarden is locked for me, I don't see it getting replaced. |
| yeah i don't see my top 4 (one piece, gintama, evangelion, initial D) ever changing because they all resonate with me in one way or either that other shows just can't replicate. i also very highly doubt steins gate, nana and karekano will ever get topped for me so i guess you could say my top 7 are locked but i'll have to rewatch S;G to affirm that because its been a while. |
 |
| I don't have a deadset #1, but even if I did... it's flexible. there's always a possibility that a new anime will absolutely blow my socks off, and occasionally an anime can stop being so appealing if I discover that the author or a producer is a pedophile or something along those lines (ruins the experience.... lowkey hxh and hisoka's voice actor come to mind) |

can't yuck my yum  |
| Isn't having number one favorite a proof of inflexible mindset to begin with? By the way, the 10 favorites in my profile aren't my top 10. Those are only examples of what genres I like. |

| my #1 fave anime is fixed. everything about this anime is a masterpiece. |
| Flexible. I don't even know what my #1 favorite anime really even is to be quite honest. I have one for Visual Novels (Muramasa) and Manga(Berserk) but with Anime kinda hard to pick haha. I do have a top 3 though. But yes it's entirely possible for any or all of them to be dethroned. Might just take a while for that to happen |
 |
| Fixed. Nothing will ever top Gurren Lagann for me. Frieren did come close though. It knocked Madoka Magica out of my top 5, which I've had in my top 5 since Christmas of 2014, so I'd say that's the biggest shake-up that's happened amongst my faves. I've had shake-ups with my faves outside the top 10 several times, but rarely do I ever come across an anime that takes the place of one I've faved for years and years. |

| Monster despite being my current #1 is far from perfect so there's still chance. Is there? |
| Vinland saga season 2 is easily my #1 and whilst it's going to have to be something REALLY special it could change as I don't have any super special connection to it apart from loving the show so there is a possibility but it's going to have to be both a great story and I gain a deep connection to it. Pretty unlikely. My favourite manga on the other hand. Yeah that's never going to change. Bakuman all the way!! |
| I don't intend it to be fixed, but my #1 has been Clannad After Story for over a decade now. I'm also getting more critical and picky, and now it's harder for something to amaze me that I would consider it a favorite so I don't see it change anytime soon.. but I really do hope I find that new masterpiece. |
| Since we all know its rigged, there isn't any hope for that happening. I have favorites but at this point, I'm not sure which really deserve the top spot. IMO the top spot should be dynamic and not fixed at all times. They should create a different algorithm for it or whatever but the rating system is already rigged by bots. |
 |
| My favourite anime has changed maybe about 10-15 times, if I'm counting correctly. However that all stopped in 2019. After Sangatsu no Lion S2 it hasn't once changed. My favourite probably would've remained Koe no Katachi or Sora Yori Tooi Basho but I rewatched them to oblivion. Watching Koe no Katachi 15 times kinda makes you notice every imperfection (mainly in the source material). I've watched Sangatsu no Lion S2 a total of six times. Now I mostly read manga so I don't have much desire to re-watch things. For that reason it'd take a freight train of an anime to change things and I'm fine with that. It's not like Sangatsu no Lion S2 doesn't deserve the top spot after-all. |
| I'm pretty sure the original Rurouni Kenshin will always be my #1 anime no matter what. As a kid I watched it on Toonami with my dad, then when I went off to college it was the first anime series I ever watched from beginning to end. It's also the first manga I ever bought. It just has far too much sentimental value to ever be supplanted by a "better" anime. |
| Unless Arakawa-sensei do something more ground break than FMA and it is adapted perfect, probably not. |
| Fixed. ReZero is my favorite series and always will be. Having read the wn, I can say without doubt that's it's staying as my no.1 |
 |
| Pretty flexible cuz there are still tons of anime I'm interested in. I love hunter x hunter but as my taste grows, I can assume it is subject to change. |
 |
| Both for my #1 anime and #1 manga, they've been fixed in place for years and I don't think it'll change anytime soon :') Or ever.. To be honest. Both of them have a special place in my heart and hit me like no other anime / manga would do. Natsume's book of friends & Akatsuki no Yona for the win! |
| pretty much fixed, the one entry of the series I have in my number one spot represents the franchise as a whole for me (attack on titan) and I really can’t imagine anything coming close to it |
| I guess I had over 50 different anime in my fave list in all these years and I don't bother anymore. I don't have that favorite anime that stands above everything else and never had. |
| My favorites in general are pretty flexible. But for No.1 I do think "A Place Further Than The Universe" is gonna be hard to beat, but tbf it hasn't been there for long time. So we'll see. |
   The Perfect Duo - has one who thinks and one who do's. To have a party, there's at least two When the world is dark, and you feel near to end. Just remember there's hope, in the form of a friend. |
| my top is 2 is steins gate and gintama and nothing will change that. the rest is flexible |
| Ever since I watch what became my #1 anime in 2012, no other anime came very close to replacing it. That said I think mine is flexible just no new anime in my opinion has surpassed it, yet. |
| Unless an anime comes along with a better regression and time travel story comes along, Re:zero will always be my #1 spot since 2016... |
 |
| My number one is pretty much locked in tbh. Grew up with it and still love of to this day |
 |
| I thought it was set in stone with Yama no Susume Second Season, but when I watched Bocchi the Rock I came to the conclusion that was even better so Yama no Susume got demoted to #2. I doubt that will happen again, though, and they're both so good that it would be very difficult for any anime to get that high on my list again, or even #3 or 4. |
  |
| It's been a year since my favorite anime was 7 Seeds, I thought I would never change it, but last week I finished watching Shingeki no Kyojin, and now it's the #1. |
 |
| For now, it's totally fixed and will never change for a long time, though I had trouble trying to fixate which is worthy of that title for me. It used to be One Piece, Oregairu, and even Mob Psycho at some point, but time changes, right? There will always be good anime but I think favorites play a major role because they remind us of the special feeling we had when we watched that anime, everyone does cling to that form of nostalgia, it just depends on how integral it is. |
