| Sailor Moon has and never will leave my #1 spot but the 2-5th spots have changed at some point First it was Sailor Moon One Piece Fairy Tail Fullmetal Achemist Brotherhood Clannad After Story Then it was Sailor Moon One Piece Gintama Fairy Tail Fullmetal Achemist Brotherhood Then it was Sailor Moon One Piece Fairy Tail Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood Dragon Ball Z Then it went back to the first list I posted on here at the top, Now it's Sailor Moon K-On Fairy Tail Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood One Piece And it's likely not going to change anymore, at least the top 2 aren't. From Fairy Tail down it might change. |
| Yeah, it changes from time to time. Just this year I finally finished Gintama and watched JoJo and they took over my #1 and #2 spots. |

johnbradshaw said: You see, ever since my top 10 fully established. There are animes that come and go but my top 5 never change. Same here. I find myself swapping out the bottom half of my top 5 occasionally, but my top 5 has been stationary since I established it. |
  |
| I started with a top 3 and added couple of shows to get: 1. Sora no Woto 2. Legend of the Galactic Heroes 3. 3-gatsu no Lion 4. Sora Yori mo Tooi Basho 5. Puella Magi Madoka Magica Essentially, the last change was due to Sora Yori mo Tooi Basho being made. |
| Kill la Kill has been in the top spot for a long time, contested only by Ping Pong, but after rewatching them, Kill la Kill is still the best thing ever. I could see S3 of Oregairu beating S2 of Oregairu. The bar is FMA:B, and that was first show I ever watched, so I'd say it's been pretty static. |
 |
| Yep. I had my favorites though I now I think had seen too few to actually have a favorite. At first, it was Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Durarara!!, D. Gray Man, and Kaze no Stigma. I still love FMA: Brotherhood, but I don't think it should count as a favorite since it seems that almost everyone loves it and it should be a given. Now, my favorites are Kino no Tabi, Trigun, Rurouni Kenshin, and Boku no Hero Academia. |

I think it's A-1 best hidden gem. |

| The world is not beautiful. Therefore, it is. |
| 1. Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood 2. Steins;Gate 3. Hunter x Hunter 4. Gurren Lagann 5. Oregairu Zoku Of course it was different before I saw Oregairu and Gurren Lagann, and the top 10 changes probably once every few months. If a better show comes out, it will replace something. |
| I could agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong. |
| In terms of movies yes, but just reordering. Both Spirited away and Whisper of the heart were moved higher, number 1 and 3 respectively. I just ended up giving them a position according to how much they meant to me personally. On series I have a set in stone top5 from at least 2012. But last year I watched three shows that jumped to #6 (Yuru Camp) #7 (Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou) and #8 (3-gatsu no Lion 2nd season) spots, and I could see myself reordering the list depending on how they grow on me. It's hard to compare them because it's been seven years since I made any change to my current top5, so at the moment just in case it stays the same. johnbradshaw said: U1111 said: I started with a top 3 and added couple of shows to get: 1.

Not my favourite, but one of the highest 9s and a show I'd defend to death. I'm so glad it exists. |

| My favorite anime has changed one time but I often shift around my top 5 the more I reflect. |

| The amount of anime I've consumed has exploded in the past four years, so I've gradually rearranged my top 10 in that time. It hasn't changed since mid-2018 when I watched Ashita no Joe and and the new Cardcaptor Sakura arc. |
| My favorites have changed some throughout the years with a few that have been there a long time and are still there. My top 5 from 10 years ago 1.One Piece 2.Fullmetal Alchemist:Brotherhood 3.HXH 4.Reborn! 5.Shaman King and now 1.One Piece 2.Mo Dao Zu Shi 3.FMA:Brotherhood 4.Kimetsu no Yaiba 5.Fruits Basket(2019) |
 |
| Mine has taken this form only recently after I finished HxH, the 2nd season of March, and the latest AOT. 1. AOT 2. HxH (2011) 3. Fate Series (Zero/UBW) 4. March Comes in Like a Lion 5. The Promised Neverland I'm not sure if a new series is going to break in there any time soon but positions lower down may be up for grabs. Promised Neverland is only 12 episodes but I've included it so I have something of this year in there, plus I have high expectations and excitement for season 2 next year! I've seen a few people mention Durarara!! - hey I'm watching that right now and it's been pretty cool and enjoyable with memorable and unique characters. It almost reminds me of an anime version of Pulp Fiction with the different perspectives and interweaving stories, and I love that jazzy OST number at the end - during the preview for the next episode! |
| When I was new to anime I remember my top 5 being something like this: 1 - Code Geass 2 - Clannad 3 - Durarara 4 - Elfen lied 5 - Shugo Chara I feel meh towards Elfen Lied and I’m indifferent towards Shugo Chara. The other three I still think are pretty good shows. I don’t really order my shows now but my 5 favs are prolly: - Aria - Texhnolyze - Kids on the Slope - Mushishi - Cowboy Bebop |

Themousen said: A man of culture indeed, I love Natsume Yuujinchou and Mushishi tooYes it has For a long time, it was : 1. Mushishi 2. Natsume Yuujinchou 3. Made in Abyss 4. One Piece 5. Durarara!! But in 2019, Mo Dao Zu Shi took One Piece's position ! And I think it's a good thing, I'm glad I can still find animes I love so much they can kick out other animes from my top 10 and even 5 |
  |
| My top 5 anime rarely change, but I have done recent changes in numbers 3 and below. My top 2 (Death Note and Code Geass) have remained as is for years and I think that my current 3rd (Devilman:Crybaby) has achieved a solid position in top 5. I mostly concern myself though with character rankings and that's why I have more solid (and unchanged for long) top 5 there, than in anime. Edit: My number 1 changed about a month ago (now it's Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu). It's the first time this ever happened ever since I started watching anime. |

| “They call certain methods of fighting good and others evil, acting as if there were some nobility to the battlefield. Such illusions, perpetrated by heroes throughout history, have led countless young men to their bloody deaths, all for the sake of this valor and glory.” ~Kiritsugu Emiya |
Another fan here. Not my favourite, but one of the highest 9s and a show I'd defend to death. I'm so glad it exists. Haha, yeah, I've rewatched So Ra No Wo To multiple times and still find a lot enjoyment out of it, great anime really, need to be watched more. |
| The world is not beautiful. Therefore, it is. |
| Yeah, it did... I remember that years ago my favorite anime was Darker than Black, and another one was Basquash. I must rewatch both of them, especially Darker than Black, to see if they make a return change my top 5... But I don't know, I guess when the list was in my head it was easier to change it. When you have it on MAL is more complicated, you become attached. Dopping something is like betraying the anime... and think about how you judge it, did you stop liking it? You like it less? And which one you drop... Is not like I have a number 1 and number 2. Is a top 5, all 5 are equal... Is complicated. I think in future I will simply add anime to the top, and have a top 10 instead of 5. When it comes to manga, I guess I could hardly consider Magi as being in my top 10 anymore as I have yet to finish it, but I didn't drop it from there... Maybe I will read it again at some point and judge it again. |

| I find it really hard to rank anime, but when I finished gintama it displaced one piece as my favourite anime. |
