As the title says, if you could only pick 1 anime to watch for the rest of your life what would it be. To spice things up a bit:
- No anime with over 100+ episodes
- Entire Show ( Season 1, 2, etc )
- No ongoing shows that haven't finished yet
Personally, I would pick Monster how about yall?

Haikyuu!! 3rd season or Cowboy Bebop
Haikyuu!! 3rd season is in my opinion a masterpiece that I already watched more than 15 times, I could seriously watch it even more times.
And Cowboy Bebop is one of the best episodic anime out there and I would happily watch Watanabe’s Magnum Opus for the rest of my life.

dangit I was gonna say One Piece :(((

I don't know the right word for it, but most likely a show that doesn't have a progressive story minus a few episodes (e.g- mushishi, death parade, cowboy bebop). Like these two do have a plot, but the next episode doesn't really lead to the next fluidly(In most cases!!). Each time I would rewatch it, it'd feel new.

edit: found the word, it's called episodic ^^

It has to be something that i have affection towards, that i already watched more than once so i know is rewachable, that i can enjoy it again and has a reasonable amount of episodes to be entertained for awhile.
My pick is Rurouni Kenshin. It's also on my completed with 10 score.

Ye this def makes sense I want to watch Mushishi but haven't yet but I'd prob have to think about Samurai Champloo as well in terms of episodic anime

It's a hard draw between either Gintama or One Piece since they're both pretty long and have a lot of things to remember each rewatch.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, since it's episodic in the start and gets more exciting halfway through the plot.

I didn't quite catch that part, but if it has to be an entire show below 100eps I would choose Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhod or Parasyte; the former because it's longer than average and I love it, the latter because it's complex and ripe for analysis.

It's 59 episodes at the moment, The final season has to be over 40 episodes long to pass the 100 mark.

Definitely Love Live. Particularly the first and the new one once it finishes airing. I will never get bored watching this show or these characters and every rewatch only enhances my perception of it.

Lucky Star would be my second choice since it's one of those shows I can literally put on any time in the background or something.

Either Cowboy Bebop or Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Both are absolutely incredible and are basically infinitely re-watchable and 10/10's. They are entertaining in their own rights episode by episode but as a whole they both are even better than the sum of their parts.
