The only recent anime that came out this past few years (if we're talking about modern anime) that made it on my favorite list were sangatsu no lion and yorimoi. I expect nothing else to touch my favorite list after this two shows for a long time.

As for any recent anime, Ojamajo Doremi was the last good show to make it on my favorites list and that's about it.

3 weeks ago I finish Boku Dake ga Inai Machi (Erased) and it really became one of my favorites animes. I know that a lot of people think that their first episodes were really good but then the anime quality wen a little bit mediocre. In my opinion the final episode went far from what I spected but nevertheless I was satisfied with the end and the anime in general.

PD: sorry for my bad english.

I binged Fate/Zero and His and Her Circumstances over the summer and I LOVED them! Fate/Zero accomplished what I want out of a battle royale series and then-some; and His and Her Circumstances is the most heartwarming rom-com EVER!
I HIGHLY recommend watching the Heaven's Feel timeline then. Not sure if you knew but there are 3 different timelines that follow different plot lines, it's not just a different version/reboot. Unlike SN/UBW which repeats the most mundane things (still great though), the movies don't do this.
I know about the other paths. I've seen SN which i thought was kinda meh and UBW which was good. Because Heaven's Feel is getting a theatrical release i'll just wait till all the movies are out.

Probably going to take another 2-3 years ngl, i'll admit the HF movie has made me super impatient. But it's not often i personally get excited about anime.

Selector Infected WIXOSS, the most recent one for me to favorite, watched it 1 month ago.


That's surprising. I assumed that because of the show's low rating, it'd be nobody's favorite.

Violet Evergarden has become one of my favorites recently


It almost became one of my favorites. The visuals, I LOVED beyond measure...but the writing I thought was shit, so I only gave it a 7.

Konosuba both seasons, 2016-2017, is one of my favourites, and Nyanko Days from 2017 I'd consider my favourite anime of all time.


I watched Konosuba season 2 last year, but recently, I've decided to give it a 9 and make it one of my favorites.

Isekai wa Smartphone to Tomo ni.


Isekai Smartphone? Very interesting. I thought everybody either hated that show or was just sort of "meh" on it. Could you tell me what made it one of your favorites?


Mostly, because it just so stupid that I find it very funny and the Light Novels have fueled my love for the series. I am also a huge Yumina fan.

I like to consider my "Favorites List" as my own Top 10 Best Anime Series (currently Top 9). That being said, the last ones I added to said list were:

-Fate/Zero: July/2018 - After re-watching it for the third time, I decided to add it to my list because it's so good. I liked the characters development, the OST, the story and how mature it is.
-Sora yori mo Tooi Basho: July/2018 - I really enjoyed it when I watched it every week while it was being aired. I was considering adding it to my list since then but after re-watching it with my sister, I finally did it. I love everything about this show, its characters, the story and the friendship they all share.

There will be 3 movies. The second one will be release in January/2019 if I'm not mistaken. And the last one will probably be release in 2020.

Just 3 movies, the first and second are 2 years apart, which implies the third one will be another 2 years from the second.

1 - Presage Flower
2 - Lost Butterfly
3 - Unnamed

I add more favs to my list nearly every season. I have a list of around 400 favorites (I think).

Recently added- (I will stick to the ones from the last 3 seasons (current one not counted) that I'm sure of. There are a few (around 5 or so from the current season) that I THINK might end up as favorites, but they aren't finished yet. They aren't in any order. Just as I thought of them):

Lost Song.

Pokemon Sun & Moon.

Golden Kamuy.

Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu: Die Neue These - Kaikou.

Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii.

Comic Girls.

Uma Musume: Pretty Derby.

Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens.

The Ancient Magus' Bride.

Violet Evergarden.

Hinamatsuri.

There's definitely a decent pick on my side in the moments that have been, but in recent months, I'll just go for Texholyze since it's the new addition.

Why don’t we become monsters and really mess up this awful world? Just destroy until there’s no more evil, no more sadness, no more anything…

Most recently, K and its sequels. I went in thinking it'd be a generic by-the-numbers anime, but what I got was a fairly unique story, lovable characters, and tons of style. (Those skateboard scenes! <3)

It's not perfect; the first season is kind of rushed, the second is too slow around the middle (the movie was just right :P), and one character gets blatant fanservice shots every time she enters a fight, but it's one of those shows where I can't get enough.

In my case, unfortunately, no. I've been dropping anime a lot lately, or have been rewatching a few.
Although, a few months ago, after rewatching Kaiji (last time I watched it was years ago) I gave it a 10.
Hinamatsuri made me smile every week. I miss it dearly.

I've mostly knowingly been watching junk for the last few months at least, Saiki K surprised me though.

All good, something to note though, all GITS series are independent from each other but are all still based on the same story, and SAC actually has the time to flesh everything out. So if you have the time and have nothing to watch pick up SAC. It's one of the few things that made me retroactively like and understand the original film more.


Yeah it's a dense franchise to get into, I didn't personally have much difficulty with the first films plot but then I basically grew up with sci fi but keeping the different iterations of the franchise straight and tracking them down especially for someone who was new to anime was quite an ordeal but probably good practice for anime's other labyrinthine franchises when next I dive into one. I agree SAC is less artsy, ambigous and opaque than the original film it is however more complex and dense and not something I'd advise people diving into when they want something breezy that said I agree they flesh things out very well, the series has some of the best worldbuilding I have ever seen not just in anime but period. Basically I second the recomendation SAC and it's sequel are the most intelligent anime I've seen.

I'm only 2 episodes into Gallery Fake, though I can guarantee I would have binged through it already if I had the time. It's already become a favourite; it's been a while since I've enjoyed an anime straight from the get-go.

I have also really enjoyed Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii for its refreshing outlook (compared to the idealistic shoujo anime we often see) on adult relationships and as something to relate to as a fellow otaku.

So far, Hataraku Saibou (anime/manga) and Medaka Box (manga mostly, the anime was nice, but it ended before things truly got good). The first for being a fun, lighthearted series who teaches you many things about how the cells of your body works (along with an endearing cast of characters), and the later for being one of the most insane and meta battle shounens ever made, that also has the grace of having a very good ending.

I would also include the anime of Rosario + Vampire, in the "dumb, but enjoyable" cathegory along with other projects of that style like Kämpfer or Highschool of the Dead. Hope to like the manga too (even knowing they are very different).
